Episode Synopsis
Hi Darling!For part two of the GW10 series I sit down with Nobel Laureate Kip Thorne, a founder of LIGO, black-hole theorist, and the science mind behind Interstellar.We talk about the 50 year journey from a bold idea to the first detection of gravitational waves, the brainstorms that seeded quantum computing and precision measurement, and how collaborating with artists and filmmakers reshaped the way he thinks about the universe.Kip shares lessons on finding your own niche in science, embracing creativity, and having fun with hard problems whether you’re chasing spacetime ripples or crafting Hollywood blockbusters.@alexthephysicist
