Salman Hameed comes on The Pakistan Experience to discuss the James Webb Telescope and its impact on the world.  On this deep dive podcast, we get into Science, Religion, Islam, Evolution, The Copernican Revolution, Black Holes, The Multiverse, Dark Matter and of course, Star Trek.  How does the James Webb Telescope interpret data?  Is Pakistan Anti-Science?  Is there life out there?  Find out this and more on this week's episode of The Pakistan Experience.  Salman Hameed is the founder and CEO of the non-profit Kainaat Studios, that creates topical astronomy videos in Urdu for audiences in Pakistan (and broader South Asia). He is also Charles Taylor Chair and Professor of Integrated Science &amp; Humanities at Hampshire College, Amherst, Massachusetts. He holds a Ph.D. in astronomy and is a member of the Five College Astronomy Department (FCAD), but his research is inter-disciplinary and it focuses on analyzing how science interacts with society. Science communication is still his primary focus: Salman has a YouTube Channel (Kainaat Astronomy) for Urdu videos and a weekly astronomy segment in English for a radio station in Western Massachusetts. Through Kainaat Studios, he also produces astronomy content in Urdu specially aimed at kids in Pakistan. His writings have appeared in Dawn Magazine, Express Tribune, Science Magazine, and the Guardian.  The Pakistan Experience is an independently produced podcast looking to tell stories about Pakistan through conversations.
