Professor Emily Hamilton was recently featured in the PBS series, Ancient Skies. Appearing in both the second and third episodes, Hamilton discusses Isaac Newton (setting the record straight that he was not only a physicist and astronomer but someone “working in the context of natural philosophy, which was a more holistic way of understanding the universe”), how Galileo used the telescope as a tool to extend the human senses, Jules Verne’s contributions to science fiction, and much more.
