Cosmic Perspective With Mark

  • Summary

  • Few people can turn their hobby into a tool for public benefit. Mark has certainly done that by turning his love for Astronomy into public education events. My conversation with Mark covers how he does impactful science communication by bringing the Universe down to us in its exquisite detail. Mark’s success proves that a picture is worth a thousand words. We also talk about how anyone can ignite the love for Astronomy in young and old.

    I hope you enjoy this as much as I did talking to Mark!
