Abstract
Andrew has talked about physics in pretty much every imaginable situation from live TV (Stargazing Live/Back To Earth), through comedy nights to 800-pupil A-level masterclasses â and most things in-between, including major speaking engagements at science festivals around the UK. In 2011 the British Science Association chose Andrew as their Lord Kelvin Award lecturer, while back in 2009 he won the masterclass prize in the UK’s FameLab national final.He occasionally gets round to writing popular science articles or the odd blog post, and he is also the resident cosmologist on the popular monthly podcast Naked Astronomy.
If you haven’t seen it, it is well worth checking out his 2 minute video called ‘This is a Galaxy’.
Series This talk is part of the Skeptics in the Pub series.
