My first question to him is going to be, does he know next weeks Lotto numbers, depending on how he answers that, will determine if I ask more in-depth cosmological questions :P

Professor Alex Filippenko has just emailed the confirmation and is looking forward to answering as many questions as possible to this group and others as well.

Many Thanks.
