Listen "3.5: Red Dwarf (Smeghead Science)"
Episode Synopsis
This week we are delving into the science behind the classic British Sci-Fi sitcom Red Dwarf. How did Cat evolve from Lister’s pregnant domestic cat Frankenstein? What does sustainable space travel look like? Are we any closer to a holographic AI Rimmer? And what is a red dwarf anyway?
We are joined by Royal Observatory astronomer Jake Foster to discuss all things space science, including sustainable space travel, aliens and navigating in space.
