Sigh... This guy just doesn't have the enthusiasm as Jack did...

[blastardinc]

Produced before Jack past? So this guy was set to replace him? Something's not right....

[islandman24]

I wonder if Chris new Jack personally.

[reiki11111]

No. just found the website that he is on. I was also curious to know what an energy officer does. Hope the website helps.

[islandman24]

So your friends with Chris Trigg.

[reiki11111]

Once you type in miami science museum in any search engine. Then click on top where it says "new musem". Then on right side type in his name. Sorry I didn't explain it better the first time.

[reiki11111]

go to miami science museum website. type in Chris Trigg. You'll read what he does. What I posted was a small part of it.

[islandman24]

What does an energy officer do?

[reiki11111]

@islandman24 In an effort to test how we will present energy content at the new museum, we are developing a new exhibit called Energy Tracker set to debut early next year. Energy Tracker will take visitors to different stations throughout the museum that will feature hands-on interactives exploring everything from basic energy principles to renewable energy.Some of the things I do, however, are a bit…different. Since joining the staff I’ve “dug around” in green roofs

i am very sorry to hear the sad news that jack has passed on. i'll sure miss him.

i'm glad they're keeping the series going.

[papadrugio]

He's Chris Trigg, the Energy Officer at the Miami Science Museum.

I have so many fond memories of watching Star Hustler as a kid. Thank you for keeping Jack's legacy alive, Chris. Keep up the great work!

The changed it from Star Hustler because internet searches were calling up Hustler magazine.

[GTBurns48215]

I did not know He died until yesterday as I was channel surfing.

[mooseydeucy]

Awww ;( How sad to not hear that distinctive Horkeimer schtick, but I am happy the legacy lives on and the show is still with us.

So the new host doesn't even say his own name? Is he a temp? I hope he loosens-up as we all "keep looking up".

[yeschet]

Went looking for advice for this weekend's camping trip; sad to hear of Mr Gazer's passing. But I am happy to see that his work is being continued.

[kg4bnp]

thank you for keeping the show and his legacy going.

[mrskcleek]

I have watched Star Gazer on the local PBS channel since high school back in the 1970s. Afterward, I would go outside and try to find the planets and stars discussed. When I travel, I look for constellations and planets. Thank you, Mr. Horkheimer, for sharing your love of the cosmos with so many. You will be sorely missed. I will not forget you and will always remember to "keep looking up".

I trust that Star Gazer broadcasts will continue for as long as there are stars and planets above.

[tzipn]

Good for all of us that we now have you! GREAT JOB!

[c1magr8]

you're doing a nice job kid! Lighten up a bit & be more animated! Be yourself ... you're doing a nice job ... have a little more fun with the gig! You need to add your own spin to the show! Beleive in yourself!

[mrjoeman]

Please keep the Star Gazer series going and dedicate it to the Great Jack Horkheimer!

I love you Jack! Thanks for the education!

[islandman24]

I like Stargazer. I wasn't into astronomy till I started watching this show around May of 2007.

[sniper584]

'Keep Looking Up' 8..(

[islandman24]

I've only been watching this show since 2007 and have been wondering why Jack would do that salute at the end or did that come along later?

[gwuengr2]

I like this new guy, although it will take time to adjust. Mr. Trigg, if you are Jack's replacement I hope you stick with it for the long haul.

[islandman24]

This guy is smart but Jack is still the best.

[silvereagle2061]

RIP Jack Horkheimer. You've inspired generations through your wonderful childlike presentation of the Heavens and now you are one with the angels.

[islandman24]

It sure is different.

[csrtitus]

Great info.....but horrible presentation.
