Richard Easther
I work in astrophysics and cosmology and teach at the University of Auckland where I am a professor and Head of Department in physics. I enjoy writing about topics that catch my eye in my own field and the often unexpected places science shows up in our lives; from sand castles to public policy.
For contact details see my University of Auckland profile page; I am happy to respond to media queries, speaking invitations and welcome enquiries from students at any level.
Needless to say, the opinions expressed here are my own, and not necessarily those of my employer.

Unlike almost any other form of transport, regular cycling leaves you fitter and healthier than sitting in a car, or a bus or a train. Not only that, Auckland's best cycle paths run through parks and incorporate a series of stunning bridges, so you are likely to arrive at work with a smile on your face.
