    THE question that go me into Astronomy back in 1982, was "Why isn't the whole sky white from starlight?" Today, I finally heard a simple and easy to understand answer. You can. It's the CMB, just stretched out to wavelengths we can't see. Thank you!

    I always love when Charles joins the show.
    The fact that he casually drops "But Startrek Voyager had 17 decks and had a nominal cruising speed of warp 9.975 so it was a speedy little ship." Makes me smile.
    I just love that he has that level of nerd trivia, and the Doctorate understanding of stuff like Quantum Entanglement, locked away in the same brain.

    Charles Liu threw out that info about the Enterprise D and Voyager as easily and off the top of his head with the same ease as info about black holes. And that Patrick McGoohan reference to Number 6 was a deep cut. He really is the Geek in chief. I love seeing Dr. Liu on the show.

Well, both shows were by Gene Roddenberry. So I wouldn't doubt they used a similar plot.

Without this original crew right here the show would never be the same. Love this show and I hope everyone continues it. Please throw in some good recommendations for other interesting podcasts please!
