Seth McFarlane's sci-fi comedy drama series The Orville is the latest show I'm reacting to - let's sort the science from the fiction. Watch The Orville on Disney + (not sponsored): disneyplus.com/series/orville/xJDRPuAtRWxz

πŸ‘©πŸ½β€πŸ’» I'm Dr. Becky Smethurst, an astrophysicist at the University of Oxford (Christ Church). I love making videos about science with an unnatural level of enthusiasm. I like to focus on how we know things, not just what we know. And especially, the things we still don't know. If you've ever wondered about something in space and couldn't find an answer online - you can ask me! My day job is to do research into how supermassive black holes can affect the galaxies that they live in. In particular, I look at whether the energy output from the disk of material orbiting around a growing supermassive black hole can stop a galaxy from forming stars.
