What Do You Do, Then?


The role of the science advisor on the show.

Picture Basically, my job is to help the writers and producers with science ideas in stories and technical language in dialogue. For example, we might do a story that involves a comet and the writers will ask me, what exactly is a comet made of, how big is it, how fast do they travel through space? When the first draft of the script comes out, I�ll read it over and make sure that the descriptions are reasonably accurate and fix any language that needs to be fixed.
