Dean Regas has been the astronomer for the Cincinnati Observatory since 2000. He's a renowned educator, author, and a national popularizer of astronomy. Space and space travel is something we're hearing about a lot more in a variety of ways and Dean comments on this. And while that is still the area of a select few, Dean's new book in collaboration with National Geographic, "1000 Facts About Space," is a way we all can experience this vicariously.
