Friday offtopic. Star Talk is renewed

[abomvubuso.livejournal.com]

NG's fascinatingly funny and amusingly fascinating StarTalk radio show, starring Neil deGrasse Tyson and featuring a pleiad of celebrities, is getting renewed for its 3rd season these days (Sep 19). Now a week earlier, NdGT's companion book StarTalk has already hit the shelves as a compliment to the show.

The new season kicks off next week with Whoopi Goldberg as its lead guest. Other guests further during the season will be astronaut Buzz Aldrin, Mayim Bialik of the Big Bang Theory (where Neil has participated as guest star), string theorist and Neil's fellow science populariser Brian Greene, Ben Stiller, Isaac Hempstead-Wright (playing Bran in the Game of Thrones show), and many more.

Among the scientific topics that NdGT usually discusses in his trademark entertainment way are, is Bigfoot an alien, could Superman survive a black hole, etc.
