Kevin Grazier on "Hollyweird Science" and the Quantum Quirks of Entertainment ScriptPhD Podcast

Dr. Kevin Grazier is a former JPL planetary scientist and notable consultant on TV shows such as Eureka, Defiance, Battlestar Galactica and Falling Skies, as well as film blockbusters such as Gravity and Pirates of the Carribean. He joins the ScriptPhD.com podcast to discuss the overarching themes and concepts that influenced his new book “Hollyweird Science: Quantum Quirks and the Multiverse." These include how the current Golden Age of sci-fi arose and why there’s more science and technology content in entertainment than ever; why scientists and screenwriters are remarkably similar; why physics and astronomy are the building blocks of the majority of science fiction; how the “Hollyweird Science” trilogy can be used as a didactic tool for scientists and entertainment figures; and his favorite moments working both in science and entertainment.
