Interview for Ignition Sequence podcast

I will always be profoundly grateful to Rick Coyle of Accelerator Media for inviting me as guest on the podcast Ignition Sequence. Our host John Murphy asked me thoughtful questions about Islam, science fiction and the search for life beyond Earth. We also spoke about Qatar’s Education City and the Arab world’s space ambitions. We recorded our conversation on Riverside.fm, with me speaking from my home in Doha. I thank my wife Jeanne Vaz for attending to our daughter Maria while I was in front of the camera in our living room. This episode of Ignition Sequence was released on YouTube, X and Spotify on February 13, 2025. The YouTube address is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7f51S...
