Hi folks,
I’m a bit new to the Slooh blog, but not to Slooh itself. So, I thought a brief introduction was in order. My name is Mike Narlock, or just Narlock to my friends. I’m the Head of Astronomy at the Cranbrook Institute of Science in beautiful Bloomfield Hills, MI. I received a B.S. in physics from University of Wisconsin – River Falls and an M.S. is astrophysics from Michigan State University. I’ve been happily married for 3, no wait, four years. And I have an 18-month old son named Oskar.
I’m also the host of Slooh Radio’s Friday night show every week. Anyway, enough of me.
I wanted to let everyone know that they’ll be a special broadcast of The Event Horizon on Saturday
May 10. Why you ask? Well, why not?!?! Seriously, May 10 is International Astronomy Day so what better way to celebrate than listening to me? I can’t think of any better way personally. Also, famed astronomer and all-around neat guy Phil Plait “The Bad Astronomer” will be doing a talk at Cranbrook Friday May 9 at 7:30pm. I plan on recording Phil and airing some of it during our Saturday show. If you live near the institute, you can come see the lecture live. So, join me and possibly Jan Fiolka, one of my fabulous staff, from 1 – 2:30 EST on Saturday May 10 on Slooh Radio.
We now return you to regularly scheduled programming, already in progress.
