1. I'm going to see Brian Cox next year

I got tickets to his touring lecture Horizons in May. He has a natural talent for explaining complex science topics in laymen terms and has an infectious enthusiasm for the cosmos. Neil deGrasee Tyson is good but IMO Brian Cox is the one worthy successor to Carl Sagan and is well-beloved in the amateur astronomy community.

Fun fact Brian Cox was also the keyboardist in the 90's British pop group D:Ream known for their hit single "Things Can Only Get Better"

2. Is that him with the long hair?

That is really cool you are going to see him speak. I have been watching some YouTube of him and I agree he is very good.

3. Yup that's him

Far right in the band group photo. I also looked much like him way back then LOL

[ToxMarz]

5. Yes, but that's not D:REAM

That's another band he was in, DARE.

4. Not bad

6. Not too bad, but obviously missing a great deal.

[Delphinus]

7. Agreed.

I think he probably wanted to say so much more.

8. Okay....

9. And to think I wasted time reading the books and taking classes. But I get what he said ...

... course I was learning Newtonian Physics on a slide rule in the Navy after not quite grasping it in college. It was obsolete before I even learned it.

10. LOOOOOVE both Cox and Al-Kalili

They’ve both done multiple outstanding science/physics documentaries.
