Hailed by Forbes as the "next physics rock star," Caltech planetary science professor Konstantin Batygin (MS '10, PhD '12) is also a prolific musician who, prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, actively performed with his band, The Seventh Season.



Batygin speaks to Caltech public programming director Michael Alexander about how art shapes his life and research, and shares some of his music, including a piece he recorded with the Miami Symphony Orchestra in 2019.



A live Q&A with Batygin follows the interview.



Out of the Lab is a new series from CaltechLive! that highlights the talents of Caltech faculty and researchers who enjoy active lives in the performing and visual arts.
