This week's episode was recorded live at Dragon*Con 2007 credit: Dragon*Con
This is a very different episode of Astronomy Cast. As we mentioned last week, Pamela recently attended the Dragon*Con science fiction convention in Atlanta, Georgia. While she was there, she participated in a special live edition of Astronomy Cast with special guest Dr. Kevin Frazier. Kevin is a NASA scientist, and the science consultant for the TV shows Battlestar Galactica and Eureka. He and Pamela work through physics and astronomy in popular science fiction. What they get right, and what they get wrong… so very wrong.
Welcome to Astronomy Cast, the most popular astronomy-related podcast. Just look at what listeners have to say about it:
Astronomy Cast is out of this world! It's hard to believe that it's free! This is an absolute must for any amateur astronomer or anyone interested in astronomy or cosmology. The hosts, Pamela and Fraser, are fun to listen to, extremely knowledgeable, and are able to explain difficult subject matter with great analogies. Bravo!
"Very interesting and almost "easy" for amateurs to listen and understand"

Eh, don't put Swoopy on again. She does not have any talent for this stuff, no radio voice… and tbh Skepticality is a horrible show.
