Take a cartoonist who holds a PhD in robotics from Stanford University and team him with a professor of physics and astronomy and you’ve got the successful podcast team of Jorge Cham and Daniel Whiteson whose new book is “Frequently Asked Questions About the Universe.”
If that sounds familiar, it should. Their podcast is “Daniel and Jorge Explain the Universe” so tackling big questions, big, out-of-this-world questions, is nothing new for them.
The banter regarding serious issues may be light-hearted, peppered with puns, but they don’t let the comedy get in the way of the science.
What’s with dark matter? Is it related to the dark web? And the biggest misconception about space?
In addition to books and podcasts, Jorge and Daniel are also the co-creators of the animated PBS series, “Elinor Wonders Why.”
Get ready for a fast-moving interview as Steve Tarter tries to keep up with these two high-flying explainers of the universe.
