Welcome
My goal is to present real science to real people in a way that everyone can enjoy. You don't need to be a physics or math wiz to appreciate the beauty of a distant galaxy or to be awed by an exploding star.

We live in the Golden Age of Astronomy. More has been learned in our lifetime about stars, galaxies, black holes and the Big Bang than in the entire prior history of mankind.

Unfortunately, many people don't have the opportunity to appreciate these great discoveries.  Real science is often shrouded in complex math and technical jargon, and popularized science is often so watered down as to be almost meaningless.

Publications

NEW! A World Without Einstein 

Everyone's Guide to Atoms, Einstein & the Universe allows everyone to enjoy the the mysteries of the universe, from the micro-world to the cosmos. The book discusses almost all the major discoveries of modern physics, astronomy and cosmology.

Can Life be Merely an Accident? presents what modern science has learned about the many conditions necessary for the existence of any form of life, and how likely it is that those conditions could occur accidentally. 

Presentations
My Presentation topics span the range of modern physics & cosmology, and include answers to the following questions:

The material presented is not "dumbed down". Rather it has been carefully translated into plain English from the original physics/math jargon. The presentations include many heavenly pictures and simple, informative graphics.

I have presented the wonders of our universe to over one-hundred non-technical audiences, from grade-schoolers to retirees, translating cutting-edge science into plain English and showing lots of captivating pictures.

It would be a pleasure to speak to your audience. The presentation can be customized to accommodate your group's interests and time constraints.
