Stargazing Audio

I just had a pretty good idea for an activity to do while you learn on audio. How bout learning astronomy while laying down and gazing up at the cosmos? That’s something you can’t do with a book and it’ll let you contemplate the enormity and awesomeness of our galaxy while you learn about it. A few authors I recommend listening to while you gaze:

Stephen W. Hawking
Timothy Ferris
Seth Shostak

And don’t forget the many Astronomy Podcasts that are out there:

Unforunately I can’t partake in this idea due to light pollution and smog. But for those of you outside the big city, take a moment at night to get your mind off this earth and onto the big picture with audio books and podcasts. Soon you’ll stop staring at the stars in puzzlement and you’ll start stargazing with intelligence.
