Toonraider 0 Posted January 4, 2011 Author Share Posted January 4, 2011 Liked that Solar System thing Dr Brian Cox did. I think it was repeated recently although I'm not sure if it was on BBC3 or Eden or something like that. yeah I saw it was on again, bbc3 or 4 I think. I really enjoyed that series. I loved the way Dr Cox explained things easily so dimwits like me could follow He is very pretty on the eye too, just as lovely as the stars BBC 4 sounds more like, thinking about it. Can't get over how he was the keyboard player in D:Ream like. Noooo?!?! I shit thee not http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_Cox_(physicist) I'd just read that. I cant believe it I fancy him even more now! He is nearly 43 too, he doesnt look it. I see he has a second series coming to BBC2 soon.... Wonders of the Universe. I will look out for that. Dont you just feel abit envious of people sometimes, who have achieved so much in their young lives?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas Tree 4005 Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Anyone see the partial eclipse of the Sun this morning? I missed it. Is it being repeated? its being shown on Stargazing live tonight Recorded that to watch with the bairn. Was it canny or geeky? tbh CT, alittle bit of both. I enjoyed it though. but then I like Dara and Dr Brian and I am really into anything to do with the skies! I was at a mates house the other night out in his conservatory in the dark peering into the sky to try and see Jupiter. All serious like. I went off to get a drink and came back to find hubby zooming in on a local hotel watching people go about their business in their hotel rooms Dirty old bugger. I know what you mean about the dark though. When Ive been in the sticks in Northumberland or Scotland with no man made light the night sky can be amazing.

Renton 18070 Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 I saw the total eclipse in 1999 in France - in the Champagne region (Rheims). Fortunately the clouds cleared just before the event. I can honestly say it was one of the most brilliant things I have seen in my life. Don't wait 28 years, get yourself on a plane to somewhere with good weather and see it before then. I love Cox (phnarr phnarr) and what he has done for Science. He's impossible to dislike because he is so enthusiastic on his subject, and he explains things so well. Take the following example.

Toonraider 0 Posted January 8, 2011 Author Share Posted January 8, 2011 Well I thoroughly enjoyed the Stargazing Live shows so Ive just looked online to buy a Planisphere and everyone else must have had the same idea cos theyre sold out on Amazon and the Book Depository But I've ordered it anyway and theyll send it when they have some in stock, cant wait! Ive been out walking tonight and as its really dark here, had a great view of the starry sky tonight. Yes I think I'm a geek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
