SEDGE THOMSON, continues his skyward look to anticipate the Great Eclipse of 21 August, with DAVA SOBEL, whose account of Copernicus's life and his mathematical revelation that the sun orbits the earth put him at risk from the science deniers of his day.  

 

Musically, we take the measure of Canadian  THREE METRE DAY, featuring lap guitar and antique pump organ;

and JOHN WESLEY HARDING and members of the Decembrists who channel the folk protest songs of the 60s to current issues. 

 

Mike Greensill plays an astronomical song. 

 

Together with Sedge they divine truth from song and story as we link the past and present to guide us to the future. 

 

Songs and insights abound.
