The Great Alien Hunt
My newest children's book, Astrophysics for Supervillains 2: The Great Alien Hunt, was published in March 2025 by DK Books.
Welcome!
I am an astrophysist, science communicator and author, and the current Public Astronomer at the Institute of Astronomy, University of Cambridge.
I received my PhD in astronomy from the University of Cambridge, and worked as a galaxy evolution researcher for a decade before turning my love of science communication into a full-time position. I now deliver outreach to schools, run stargazing evenings, give public lectures, and write about all things astronomical.
The second book in my 'Astrophysics for Supervillains' children's astronomy series, The Great Alien Hunt, was published in March 2025 by DK.
I am also a Bye-Fellow at Girton College, University of Cambridge.
