Default Brian May Replaces Guitar with Telescope

Queen guitarist joins Sir Patrick Moore and Chris Lintott to write "the complete history of the universe"

Quote:
May, 58, who abandoned his astronomy PhD when Queen hit the charts in the mid-1970s, has named the book Bang! The Complete History of the Universe, after the Big Bang from which the universe is thought to have originated...

While working on the book, May has told senior astrophysicists he wants to complete his thesis and has persuaded them to assess it.
A major factor in that success was a research paper he published in 1974, entitled An Investigation of the Motion of Zodiacal Dust Particles, which remains a widely cited work.

Talented guy.
