If You Could Travel in Time, Where Would You Go?
Have you ever felt that you were born in the wrong era? We asked professionals from a diversity of fields what time periods they would visit if they could rewind or fast-forward time. And — before we get too carried away — an astrophysicist explains the complicated logistics of time travel.
Guests:
Neil deGrasse Tyson, astrophysicist and director of the Hayden Planetarium
Joseph Ellis, professor of history at Mount Holyoke College
Judith Martin (aka Miss Manners), etiquette columnist
