I have the infinite galaxy from '2001' as my screensaver - so if I space out while I'm writing and it goes to screensaver, I can just stare off into the stars.

I look for what needs to be done. After all, that's how the universe designs itself.

I'm a religious man. I pray for Milky Way.

I'm using all my resources to help me with that and I feel the sky is the limit for me.

How can you look at the galaxy and not feel insignificant?

I am an astronomer, and my job is to look to the heavens to better understand the universe and our place in it.

Do not look at stars as bright spots only. Try to take in the vastness of the universe.

As long as I can contribute, I'll continue working.

I'll take as much work as I can get. You can always need more work.

I'm helping launch the new Milky Way Chocolate Ice Cream Bar. I play an astrophysicist on television, and the name of the bar is Milky Way, so put two and two together, and here I am.
