And he's very encouraging. Hubby told him about the topics he wanted to do his master's thesis on, and how he was thwarted, and Dr. Tyson said, "We'll never know how many great ideas were murdered in their cradles."

I will have to look up Max Tegmark.

Brian May, Ph.D. (my avatar) did his song about time travel called "39" as part of a short acoustic set. He talks about relativity. I told my hubby, a physics major with a master's degree, "Think of it (the Queen concert) as a lecture on relativity with a lot of other Queen music around it".





I have figured out from living with a physicist for 21 years that his favorite song is "The Galaxy Song" from The Meaning of Life.
