Michio Kaku to Speak in Buffalo
If you do not know the name Michio Kaku, it is about time that you changed that. He is one of the most popular and renowned physicists working today, and that’s saying a lot. In a world where people who work in science do not generally have brand name recognition, a few, such as Hawking, Neil Degrasse Tyson, and Michio Kaku, are able to transcend into the realm of pop culture. While some science purists might dismiss this popularity, it gives Dr. Kaku a chance to reach and enlighten the masses with his ideas of science and the way the universe works.
Dr. Kaku is able to take very complicated scientific principles, including quantum physics, and break them down into understandable components that nearly everyone is able to grasp. He’s very popular on television shows and news programs whenever it comes to any matter of science, thanks to his ability to distill things into easy to understand terms. He was recently on David Letterman’s show talking about the troubles with the Fukushima plant in Japan. Earlier this year, he was a guest on The Colbert Report talking about the dangers of near earth asteroids, such as Apophis.
His television show Sci-Fi Science was very popular. It explored some of the most popular ideas and tropes of science fiction and discussed ways that they could become real using actual science. Some of the episodes explored things such as superheroes, force fields, and time travel. Dr. Kaku is also the author of a number of popular books, including Physics of the Future, Physics of the Impossible, and Beyond Einstein.
If you have a deep love of science, or even a passing interest, you do not want to miss when Dr. Kaku speaks. He will be holding a talk in Buffalo, NY on September 25 at 8PM. He is a very popular speaker, so you will want to make sure that you get your tickets as soon as you can. You can spend a great evening out learning about some fascinating topics and subjects.
