What happened to Pluto and how is today's guest involved? Well...time to find out. 

Dr Brown is a professor of planetary astronomy at Cal Tech, who has discovered or co-discovered 29 minor planets, is the winner of a prestigious Feynman Prize and has appeared in The Time’s Top One Hundred Influential Persons list. Pretty cool right?

In this episode, we delve deeper in to Dr Browns career and wider space. Why is Pluto not really a planet? Why are we reluctant to give it up? How does it feel to discover a planet? How do we find new planets? And, what are the future prospects for Mars exploration? 

Enjoy!
