I talked about astronomy/astrophysics and black holes but the conversation also took us into neuroscience, atheism and the Moon hoax (there is no such thing, we did go to the moon).

IHS is a “højskole”, which is a special Danish type of educational institution. People go there to further their education in subjects not covered in more academic types of schools. Typically you go for either a 6 month course or you can go for a week or two in the summer. IHS specializes in al types of sports, and the facilities wre great (I got a tour after I gave my talk). The students were really great and interested in what I had to say, and the conversation was lively.

My mindmap for the talk is here. It’s in Danish. I will make an English version if someone asks me to give a talk in English at one point or another.

It felt good to give a lecture again and see that I inspired the students, I haven’t done that much since I left science. I might be available for gigs in the future, so contact me
