Meet Bill Higgins. By day, he’s one of the scientists who keeps the Fermilab National Accelerator running safe, as it pummels the smallest particles in the universe. But in his free time he’s a techie storyteller of big things and big ideas: a NASA Solar System Ambassador, a researcher of esoteric technology from rocket belts to Jacquard looms, and an explorer of how we tell the story of our scientific society.

Guests:

Bill Higgins: Radiation Safety Physicist at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab)
Br. Guy Consolmagno SJ: Director of Vatican Observatory, President of the Vatican Observatory Foundation.

Read Bill’s “From the cabinet of physics” series on the Vatican Observatory website:
