I wasn’t actually going to mention the whole space beer thing again, heaven knows I’ve been banging on about that enough! But I just stumbled across a website advertising a film that will be made called “Beer Drinkers in Space”. (Sign me up!) There’s little information about it, but it appears to be based on a 1980’s original movie of the same name. The blog has recently announced that “Beer Drinkers in Space is readying for a March shoot in Orlando, Florida. The movie, starring Christopher Atkins and James Hong, will be directed by Iake Eisenmann.” I wonder if they need a space beer science advisor? Hmmm…
Anyhow, today’s Astroengine Live will include an airing of my 10-minute-long podcast for the 365 Days of Astronomy that aired last week (about, you guessed it, “The Link Between Beer and Space Settlement”), a behind-the-scenes look at the AAS conference last week in Long Beach (about, you guessed it, drinking free space beer), and something about magnetars, colliding black holes and hot neutron stars. Oh yes, and a run-down of the Carnival of Space. It’s going to be awesome.
Show starts at 4pm PST, 5pm MST, 6pm CST, 7pm EST… and midnight GMT!

So…..you like beer, do you? 😉
Hehe! Hi Georgia. Actually, I’m not a huge beer fan, but the last few weeks seemed to have centred around the stuff! Give me a glass of Napa Cabernet Sauvignon any day 😉 (did I really just say that? Looks like I’ve lost my wicked student ways…)
Hope you are well! Was awesome meeting up with you last week. Do you have plans for the Pasadena AAS in June?
Cheers, Ian
I love beer
