I am an astronomer based at Cardiff University. My research speciality is airborne astronomy, making observations from a converted Boeing 747 in oder to get above the Earth's atmosphere. I also write books and do a lot of media work (TV and radio) - see my website at http://rhodrievansastronomy.co.uk.

My most recent published book is called "The Cosmic Microwave Background - how it changed our understanding of the Universe", which is available directly from the publisher Springer at http://www.springer.com/gb/book/9783319099279 or from bookshops.
