Ep. 82 - Comic-Con Science of Star Wars Panel

Due to the Halloween weekend, we’re taking a break this week. But not to worry! You’re still getting that sweet, sweet Star Wars content. Our very own Jim Lehane participated in a San Diego Comic-Con panel this summer entitled “The Science of Star Wars” and you get to enjoy it today. The panel was hosted by Melissa Miller and James Floyd of StarWarsologies, sponsored by Andrea Decker and the Fleet Science Center, and also had astronomer Dr. Lisa Will, astrobiologist Angela Zoumplis, and concept designer Jake Lunt Davies. The panel covered a wide range of topics from binary star systems to whether a porg is plucked or skinned. Enjoy!
