Episode Synopsis
Elementary My Dear is a 6 part podcast series by National Museums NI, hosted by Emer Maguire, where we explore the wonders of some of the most fascinating elements in the periodic table. Elements are everywhere! Each week we discuss their importance in unusual places, from their contribution to the art world, to the gold in mobile phones.
This episode is all about meteorites and elements in space.
Emer talks to elements expert Mike Simms about all things meteorites and where to find them.
She also talks to Norah Patten, who hopes her meteoric rise in the space world will lead to her becoming Ireland's first astronaut.
Finally, she chats with artist Noel Connor. Noel was a 14 year old boy when he saw a meteorite fly over his head in West Belfast in 1969.
