Hi Fraser & Pamela,

I was wondering about an idea for a series of podcasts about famous past and present astonomers / cosmologists and their contirbution.

Certainly one I would suggest would be Carl Sagan.

If Dr Gay and Mr Cain decide on a podcast about famous astronomers (and astrophysicists), I'd like to suggest Subrayiman Chandrasekhar.

As a very unimportant aside, I got to meet him at a physics colloquium when I was attending Illinois Inst of Technology and he was at U. Chicago.

Although I've probably misspelled his first name. Bac

Now that many topics have already been discussed in detail, the best way forward for this podcast in my view would be a discussion of the hot new space news of the week.

There are many articles on universe today, that I find interesting at start but as I read on they become too complicated to follow. A simple but detailed description with recap of the basics involved would be really welcome.
