HD and the Void
I pick a topic I want to know more about and dig into it for a year. 2017 is all about space! I'll look at anything that sends me down a research tangent. I do take requests, I don't keep it formal, I do my research, I don't like describing complex math but I do try. Wander with me into the cat’s-cradle tangle of society, history, science, and anything I thought was cool to mention.
HD and the Void
Ep. 2 Cosmology

HD
Learn about some of the major cosmological models that scientists through the ages have assigned to our universe, even when the known universe was only as big as our solar system. I talk about Claudius Ptolemy, Al-Hasan Ibn al-Haytham, Nicolaus Copernicus, *dreamy sigh* Tycho Brahe, Johannes Kepler, Galileo Galilei, Giordano Bruno, René Descartes, Sir Isaac Newton, Pierre-Simon Laplace, Albert Einstein, Edwin Hubble, and finally the most common cosmological model accepted today (because it wouldn't be current science if everyone agreed on it).
