Check Out Kip Thorne's Chat On @scifri Today About INTERSTELLAR (which came out 10yrs ago this month!). Kip mentions #GravitationalWaves, @LIGO, & what could have been if the #LIGO detectors played a role in the movie.
The science fiction film āInterstellarā turns 10 years old this month. Dr. Kip Thorne, theoretical physicist and science advisor for the film, joins us to discuss how the movie inspired people to pursue careers in science.
