Ep#9 - Dr. Rick Fienberg - From Viking To Ikigai Totality Talks - The Solar Eclipse Podcast
-
- Nature
In this episode we chat with Dr. Richard Tresch Fienberg, astronomer and science communicator. He talks about his journey from JPL, to Sky and Telescope, and on to the American Astronomical Society. Of course, we chat about the total solar eclipse of April 8, 2024. He is now retired and serves as the head of the American Astronomical Society’s Solar Eclipse Task Force. Trained as a professional astronomer, he remains an amateur astronomer at heart. Rick joins us from his private observatory in central New Hampshire.
We apologize for the snaps and pops in the audio. It was cleaned up significantly and a newer version has been uploaded. If you take the automatic download, you can refresh your version if the pops are too annoying!
