He writes a regular column for Das Magazin and was scientist in residence at the Rietberg Museum and the KOSMOS cultural centre in Zurich where he hosted the occasional ‘Late night science show’. Among his published works is the book Moon: Past, Present & Future.
This anthology is 'a parcel of the universal acknowledgement that the moon is there [...] and the themes of humanity on earth serve to give the collection a cohesiveness that captures [its] enchanting glory.' -- Hannah's Bookshelf, North Manchester FM
