Head of Department of Religious Studies, Dr Chris Deacy, interviewed astrophysicist, Christopher Greenfield, in his latest podcast episode for Nostalgia Interviews.
Chris Deacy comments, “It was a huge pleasure to catch up with Christopher Greenfield for my latest Nostalgia Interview. Chris is an astrophysicist, based in Abu Dhabi, and he talks about his time as the headteacher of an International Space School in Houston, how he first became interested in astronomy, his obsession with the singles charts (something we have both always had in common – Chris and I were in the same class at school, but followed very different professional paths), doing online pub quizzes, the role of the subconscious, what he thinks about fake news and social media, the golden age to come of space exploration (and how he’d love to go into space himself), speaking at the United Nations, acting in pantomime and in a film, how ‘Spitting Image’ got us all talking about politics in the school playground, and glancing back but looking forward.”
