Why see Professor Brian Cox?
A 21st-Century Space Odyssey
Prepare for a cosmic adventure as renowned British Physicist Professor Brian Cox touches down on our shores for this much-anticipated world tour, Horizons, where he'll be illuminating audiences on the nature of our solar system in his inimitable, affable style. Using state-of-the-art technology and LED screens, he'll explore the origins of the universe and our place in it.
First tasting the limelight as the keyboardist in Brit-Pop band D:REAM, Cox remerged in the public eye as a particle physicist and won great acclaim for his television shows, including Wonders of the Universe, Wonders of the Solar System and Wonders of Life. Since then he has become an integral part of popular science in the vein of Carl Sagan, Neil Degrasse Tyson and Bill Nye.

Anyone who has seen Prof. Cox will appreciate his enthusiasm for science (not just his own fields of physics and astronomy but a variety of topics) and ability to translate the hard stuff into digestible and entertaining fodder for us regular folks (non-STEM PHD trilobites like me). On YouTube, search for his WONDERS BBC TV show or various interviews (check out Joe Rogan Podcasts # 610 or 1233).
He brings his friend and Comedian along to lighten the mood every so often. I've read alternating complaints that his shows were too dry or the comedy took away from the "flow" of the science, so I think bringing his buddy along was a good "middle of the road" approach for the masses ... Read more

Brilliant!
A mind blowing experience! Professor Brian Cox was stimulating and had the genius and talent to explain, (to even the rank amateurs such as myself), so many extraordinary discoveries in a forthright somewhat understandable way. Bravo! ðŸ‘ðŸ‘ðŸ‘👠... Read more
