    Nice to see him make good use of his degree. I always thought it was cool that there are two major British bands- Queen and Dare- with Astrophysicists in them.

      In October 2006, May re-registered for his doctorate at Imperial College, and he submitted his thesis in August 2007

      the revised thesis (titled “A Survey of Radial Velocities in the Zodiacal Dust Cloud”)[1] was approved in September 2007, some 37 years after it had been commenced

      In 2020, he participated in the team that contributed the stereography images of numerical simulations of asteroid disruptions and re-accumulations in a publication in the peer-reviewed journal Nature Communications

      It actually sounds like he’s pretty busy with the science these days.

        Admittedly, I haven’t been paying close attention to Brian May’s physics career.

      I’d hesitate to call Dare “major.”

      Ya brian didn’t make sense I guess so it was just subliminally swapping it for brain and I thought the title was referring to queen elizabeth’s brain

        Which would have only been slightly weirder than the guitarist from the band Queen helping.

        Read the title as “Queen Brian” and simply thought “about time”

      It’s a given since he got his Sir Brian title from King Charles :p
