What happens when you take someone who is an astrophysicist and consults on Star Trek and subject her to explaining the science behind things to...well...us?

We're not sure, either, but we're pretty sure that her head exploding might be a possible outcome!

You might have seen her at STLV or maybe even in her online series, "Dr. Erin Explains the Universe." This week, we welcome Dr. Erin MacDonald to the podcast to talk about the science of things in Star Trek and whether or not some of these things make sense.

Plus, we'll talk about the rescheduled dates for STLV and give you an update on our online fundraiser for Feeding America in this week's episode of The Flagship of the Trek Geeks Podcast Network!
