Science for the People

This week we start with this year’s physics Nobel Prize award­ed to Jim Pee­bles, Michel May­or, and Didi­er Queloz and fin­ish with a dis­cus­sion of the Nobel Prizes as a way to award and high­light impor­tant sci­ence. Are they still rel­e­vant? When sci­ence break­throughs are built on the backs of hun­dreds — and some­times thou­sands — of peo­ple’s hard work, how do you pick just three to high­light? Join host Rachelle Saun­ders and astro­physi­cist, author, and sci­ence com­mu­ni­ca­tor Ethan Siegel for their chat about astro­physics and Nobel Prizes.
