But Why is VPR's podcast for curious kids, and it's taking over Vermont Edition to answer questions about space with St. Michael's College astronomer and physicist John O'Meara.
O'Meara is also the chair of the college's physics department. He joined Vermont Edition host—and But Why host—Jane Lindholm to answer questions about space, the big bang, black holes, gravity, the earth and other far-out topics.
Watch the Facebook Live video of the show on the But Why page.
Broadcast live on Thursday, June 12, 2018 at noon; rebroadcast at 7 p.m.
