What’s all this nonsense about old Brian May getting his doctorate in space stuff? I mean, the opening guitar to “Tie Your Mother Down” is OK, but let’s not guild the lily. In addition to my duties as Rolling Stone, I too moonlight (ha) as a space physicist. I recall an argument Dr. May and I had regarding the most probable distribution function that might satisfy the macroscopic conditions imposed on any given planetary system. May went blabbing on about “Vlasov” equations (typical) while I tried to explain that things aren’t always as difficult as they seem.
