Answers
◇ Required answer :-
Question. Despite the difficulties involved, you’ve increased your public appearances. You keep a dizzying schedule of trips, lectures, interviews, festivals… almost like a rock star. Why do you do it?
Answer. I feel a duty to inform the public about science.
I would tell a young Spanish scientist to go to America. They value science because it pays off in technology
Q. Is there anything that you would like to do in life and still haven’t?
A. Go into space with Virgin Galactic.
Q. In one of your most recent books you focused on the theories that could unite relativity and quantum physics. What will the next one be about?
A. Go into my life against the odds.
Q. Spain, like many other countries, has cuts its science budget, prompting many young scientists to go abroad to continue their work. What would you say to a Spanish youngster who is considering whether or not to become a scientist?
A. Go to America. They value science because it pays off in technology.
Q. You recently launched a very ambitious initiative to search for intelligent life in our galaxy. A few years ago, though, you said it would be better not to contact extraterrestrial civilizations because they could even exterminate us. Have you changed your mind?
A. If aliens visit us, the outcome could be much like when Columbus landed in America, which didn’t turn out well for the Native Americans. Such advanced aliens would perhaps become nomads, looking to conquer and colonize whatever planets they can reach. To my mathematical brain, the numbers alone make thinking about aliens perfectly rational. The real challenge is to work out what aliens might actually be like.
Hope it helps.
have a great day
