So glad this GoogleTechTalk on Travis Metcalfe's adventurous interdisciplinary astronomy is available. We asked Travis to talk a bit about his scientific interests and how he got started on his research career. You'll find that interview in the "People Spotlights" on UCAR's website. We've also started a new NCAR + UCAR Science channel on YouTube (ncarucar). Let us know what you think.

i have four monitors and i can watch four different videos at once. Its supposed to be impossible to concentrate on more than one at a time, but believe me you can train yourself to do it. I'm trying to get it up to 10 but so far i got up to 6 for about 2 mins then i lost it.

Thanks for a clear introduction into asteroseismology. It brought up good memories from an astrophysics and unrelated computational seismology course course that I followed some time ago. Now I know how they are related...

Also thanks for introducing (at the end) the Pale Blue Dot project. Maybe I'll adopt a star...

Best,
