Title: Cox Forshaw Interview
Post by: GillE on October 23, 2011, 21:53

There's an interesting interview with Brian Cox and Jeff Forshaw here (http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/2011/oct/23/brian-cox-jeff-forshaw-answers).  I'm particularly intrigued by what they say about fusion power and graphene.

Good find Gill.  Some of the big questions are explained very well.  I particularly liked what he said about the Universe being 14 billion years old but that it is much bigger than 14 billion light years in size.  No matter how much we improve our instruments, we will only be able to see a tiny fraction of our Universe.
