Astronomer and regular contributor to Astronomy Magazine, Bob Berman, sat down to discuss the strange happenings in our universe—as well as what astronomical events we should be looking for during 2017.   The most exciting of these events is The Total Solar Eclipse of August 21, 2017 and it cuts a path through the United States... but only certain locations will be within the path of totality.  That means you'll need to find where the path of totality will be for August 21, 2017 in order to view this rare event.   Then the focus turned to Bob Berman's book that he co-authored with Dr. Robert Lanza— Beyond Biocentrism.  They also touched on the Trappist-1 Planetary System, Bob Berman's Strange Universe 3 minute program on NPR, and Bob's upcoming book called Zapped.     Bob Berman ►Host of Strange Universe on NPR ►Author of Strange Universe ►Astronomy Magazine's "Strange Universe" columnist ►Discover Magazine's astronomy columnist ►Adjunct professor of astronomy at Marymount Manhattan College ►Director, Overlook Observatory Links Bob Berman's Strange Universe   Sponsor Mysterious Matters is Proudly sponsored by K&N Filters.
