Cosmology and schnitzel

Recently back from a trip to the Max-Planck-Institut für Astrophysik outside of Munich, Germany, where I talked with colleagues about ESA's upcoming Planck Surveyor mission to measure the Cosmic Microwave Background (which we're working on here at Imperial College), and, of course, eat such delicacies as wandererpfandl mit hirschbraten and weissbraten mit weissbier. More on the people, the science (and maybe the food and climate) later.
