Mapping the Mysteries of the Galaxies, with Professor Romeel Davé

This week, NASP host Alix meets with universe-ready Professor Romeel Davé - computational and theoretical astrophysicist and Chair of Physics from the University of Edinburgh's School of Physics and Astronomy - for a special extended episode. He takes us "Around the Galaxies in 80+ Computer Models" by introducing us to galaxy-creating computer simulations that aim to help the world better understand what has been, what is, and what will be out beyond Earth's reach. Alix and Romeel venture out from the world of academia, and into the (theoretical) world of the yet-to-be-mapped universe by discussing the scientific field that involves constant comparison of models of the planets and the stars and everything in between. More than an academic, we get a sneak peek into Romeel's down-to-Earth nature, philosophies, goals and hobbies. Need we say more?
