  7. Can you believe this? One of the best guitarists on earth is also an astrophysicist: Brian May of my beloved rock band Queen! After writing "We Will Rock You" and touring around the world as the lead guitarist in Queen, Brian May made an unusual career choice: He got his Ph.D. in astrophysics. May explains how Queen developed its distinctive sound and explains his fascination with stereoscopic photographs taken in the 1850s. He also talked about Queen, working with the amazing Freddie Mercury and the making of their music. Listen to the interview on KQED radio:
