wt8012 To my Knowledge, that might just be the VERY time that Brian May has *EVER* Been Funny in Public - he seems to find it fairly unexpected and surprising himself..... And that already has factored-in the half decade in the late 80s where he and his wife would accompany each other to EVERY Interview the other was invited to give, and sat there together on adjacent chairs, whilst rockin’ *EXACTLY* the same haircut. Plus the clogs. (obviously)

"The pursuit of knowledge, darling!!"....he got that from Freddie.

A lot of ppl are shocked to find this man's doctorate was not just given to him by some university looking for publicity because he was interested in astronomy. He went to school like everyone else, completed his thesis, met all the requirements- and is actually a very well-respected figure in his field. It doesn't seem possible- to be as good at guitar and music in general, harmonies especially- as he is- and also have enough time and energy left over to be a well-respected PhD in astronomy- it's insane. And not only was he in one of the greatest bands of all time and helped write some of the most famous songs of all time- he also literally put the Vox AC30 amp on the map and created a signature tone with it- using handmade electronics- that ppl chase to this day and can't replicate. He was one of the first guitarists to ever use the Range master circuit- a treble boost he ran into the Vox to get that super saturated lead sound everyone loved so much- but since he also built his own guitar- electronics and all- he got a unique sound no one else can figure out. Some combination of his hand wound pickups played into that rangemaster through the Vox AC30- will give you the lead tone from "Queen Killer". But according to him you also have to crank the Vox wide open which means you better have it in another room- isolated, and mic'ed. Otherwise it's going to blow your ear drums.

It's the pursuit of knowledge, darling.

Brian May such a versitile, vibrant and humble person. One of the greatest musians alive, scientist. I am a great admirer of Queen band and Brian May.

"It's the pursuit of knowledge, Darling" was one of my favorite passages. It was beautifully explained and everybody strucked by his ability to instill the minds of young audience. Love it..

His thesis is very comprehensive. Dr. Becky has a video where she reviews it.

Brian May's voice is so soothing that even if I don't understand much about what he's talking about space and all these knowledge about what he studied, it seems interesting and I am all ears for him.

Isn't it good to see that not all rock stars are airheads and that some are so firmly grounded in reality like Dr May. Respect very thoroughly earned!

Lesser people might be tempted to rest on their laurels as guitarist for one of the greatest and most popular bands of the 20th century. Dr. Brian May obviously aspired to be something even greater.

I knew he was a rock legend and astrophysicist, but I didn’t know he is so charming and humble.

The only other person I can I think of in more or less the same capacity maybe the former Indian President Dr. Abdul Kalam was a multi-faceted person like him- an aerospace scientist, musician/poet/author and serving his country as a statesman. Legends.

Why did this bring me a tear like a proud Mom or something? Brian is such a luminary that seeing him shine in this way too is just inspiring.

He's a very intelligent man. He's father is something of another level

So okay, every Queen fan knows Brian May is both a PHD in Astrophysics and one of the greatest quitarist and songwritters but is it just me, lor is it surreal watching him GIVING A LECTURE ABOUT COMMETS IN A FCKING OXFORD AUDITORIUM

9:59 It all started with that smile that damn smile

His "pursuit of knowledge" statement remind me of another Englishman who was asked why he wanted to climb Mt Everest. "Because it's there."

Such a rock n roll answer "shit happens I suppose"

"An older couple for a trip to Mars" ...Don't you hear me call, though you're many years away Don't you hear me calli'n you? Write your letters in the sand for the day i take your hand in the land that our grandchildren knew.

I can hear him talk all day... infact thats what I have been doing for the past week

god i love this man, its ridiculous

Could listen him for hours and hours . Legend

The TRUTH, Dr. Brian is you COULD AND CAN. You HAVE the interest, the knowledge, the honesty, the Piety ,that Patrick had along too with the mesmeric audience capture when (he) you speak. The others trailing on the Sky at Night wagon (though nice folk) don't hold a candle to you . And I believe Patrick would be sad mate.

We need much more people like him

Brian is one of those few individual who can have two sections in these oxford qna's lol

A "good luck" Brian if there ever was one. I love Dr. May. God bless him.

What an excellent man !

He's so intelligent, wow

I got a pet smart ad with Queen's you're my best friend playing what a coincidence

"It's the pursuit of knowledge, darling. Isn't it?"

I agree with Dr May. We need to get our own planet and its occupants tended to before we go into space.

"Well...shit happens I suppose...!" Ah ah! Epic!

Ngl, if Brian were my teacher, I would listen to him all the time

I saw Brian May and Roger Taylor at Seoul concert today. Brian is really amazing & Roger is wonderful! God bless Queen Forever!

My first book on space was by Patrick Moore. Great book got me hooked on space , I think I was 10-11 years old.

What a life to have many passions in different subject matters

I seriously just knew he was a part of a band. QUEEN!

What a guy.. rockstar and astrophysicist

Simply I love this man to the bits....!!!!

I'm not sure but his voice is Soo soothing....damn!!
