welcome back you with the live from moscow and i want you to be among. the top stories the international atomic agency chief makes his first visit to japan's crippled fukushima plant the consequences of the nuclear nightmare have seen a rise in the suicide rate in the four months since i devastating earthquake and tsunami. president obama appealed to the public to pressure congress into a compromise over debt ceiling just a week before the u.s.

could potentially the full for the first time in its history. and a top north korean diplomat is heading to the u.s. for talks on resuming the stalled a nuclear disarmament. that comes days after envoys from the north and south met for the first time in two years and agreed to renew six party talks. stay with us here on r.t. . in our interviews queen horace and songwriter brian may she caught up with the maestro who also happens to be an astrophysicist after a symposium of astronomers in the canary islands and next he shares his memories of working with freddie mercury and gives insight into how music and the stars help life here on.

it's great to have you with us today sir thank you something so recently i was going through the glass of passage and he writes about music and what he says about music is that except it's art it's also true power over nations and and then many people say that exactly why music is compared to exact sciences like mass. so i never really got that because i finished the conservatory and i always failed my math class how you as a man of music and science can tell me how music is related with science or exact science like math for example so hard question. yeah obviously there are mathematical things in music but ironically i think the most important things in music will be instinctive things so i don't appoint how that works out except maybe use your audience but yes i love pure science and i love your music and they're not the same sure but. certainly throughout history there has to have

been connections of people whom you were immersed in both of them you know from your not a difference between them to patrick moore you know. it seems to be that we maybe it's an obstruction thing maybe people who like these things don't like the clutter of the world and want the complications of the world that we live in you know the these pieces of stuff where you just try to find the essence of life so maybe pure science is in some way close to be a sense of nature and music is close to pure essence of human being at this point you see yourself as a man of science or a man of music. depends on the brain on the hour. do you believe in god because i'm. richard dawkins there who is a very strong atheist and i had a little kind of argument with him in a hundred eight minutes or because he he kind of i think he felt that he proved there was no good and mike really needs that's not

a very scientific attitude because if you if you make a pronouncement you have to have evidence or if you say there is no good where is the evidence there is no god you can say i don't know you know being an agnostic to me is a scientific point of view which is supportable but you know he's a very clever man he has a different point of view to me but in my experience i have felt at times that there is a god of some kind i don't subscribe to any religion organized religion that's a different matter but if your question is about right there is a god but if there is a god we have very little idea of what god might be that's inherent in what we are we have very little understanding or. do you think we're alone out there. it's only opinion i have a strange feeling that maybe we are alone i don't know why this is you know but you're spot on about the loneliness that you experience after it's performance. and study you know because i've spoken to

a couple of astronauts are going to the moon for the past three days and they also speak of that last loneliness that they experience when they're out there in space . stays in music in your opinion give you that comfort and loneliness. oh yeah maybe they do for a moment you know maybe but ironically again maybe that's what makes you more aware of life because you really must be something in this wonderful. togetherness we see with the universe and then the reality is you lose it so maybe that's why i mean that's why we feel lonely i do feel a lot of loneliness but is it a comforting feeling you know. sort of comforting but music when you're. for the moment and science when you're in it for the moment it is all encompassing so yeah you don't have time to think how it's going to ask you that certainly are in your life you know it's that bond and. that exploration for celebration was it sex drugs

and rock'n'roll but was it for pain money it was never for frame i don't particularly enjoy flying it was never for money because i was always happy with what i had even if we only had sprinters. it's just because it was there was exciting it was unknown it was a door that you thought you could walk through and then thirty years on you want back to finish your ph d. that you just dropped out from like you do that it was unfinished business. it's like you have a circle someplace and the circle just doesn't quite. make it back task accomplished but it didn't have to do anything with gills towards your parents because in dropped out earlier on in life maybe they're a little disappointed in you because you went out to work and are all you know there was a moment you know your stuff to me. and my god was very against it in the beginning because he. i think he saw in my education and the place i got to the place that he

would have liked to have got to and he never got his degree and so it always held him back in his life so he saw me with his fantastic degree in science and the whole world opening up to me and it looked like i was walking away from me and he found that just impossible to use so yeah he was very upset and we hardly told we're going. to do more and. various things happened but eventually he came to see us for. he said to me. i understand and then when you actually. and the funny thing was you know he was very against this but all the time i was doing something off with queen he was drawing little maps and charts of how the record sales. during you know when you know he was following with great detail what i was doing so he was always kind of into it he just didn't perhaps want to. say that but at one obviously when you think queen and see you

playing next to freddie mercury all those great hits come to my mind and then anderson that when you reach that level of success with someone you definitely have a special bond you form a special bond and i've heard you know the range and you say that you still see freddie in a strange way can you elaborate on that it's like a family member and you lose them but you don't quite honestly because you take the real. early with so long together. so. you get that closeness from somebody if you can be in a creative environment other than famous or infidelity or even success but in the creative environment you know you learn to to know what somebody else one can think of you might not always be right but you have a feeling for and so i still feel that and roger does as well in a particular it applies more if we work in a screen in a certain thing and we think what would freddie say and you are would be he would say this and. yet he's part of the creative process because he's part of what we

are because we really chiseled this thing out all together of me and george pretty and roger so you know i mean for a while i didn't want to you know i was very you know. it was a point you know the grieving process where i just didn't want to talk about green didn't want to feel that it was there even to me except as history but i sort of got through that and now i regard it as part of my life we screw never go away and it shouldn't go away because it's so big part of what i would try to create to oppression what do you think happens after death after death you know the questions i'm near. and i don't know. i'm inclined to think that our view of the universe is very. before it's you know in a way that you know. crawling over a piece of paper has a very limited view of the universe i think we also have the limits of human so this existence that we know maybe just

a very small part of the whole picture you know and i'm excited to think that maybe so. i'm not counting on it because maybe maybe at the end of your life i'd say i don't know. you know one thing is certain you can't use it as an excuse you saying ok you know this life is really bad but the next one is going to be ok you know you have to make the best of when you were so i can't not ask you i know that you and very successful and yet you were on the verge of suicide what stops you at that point to fear of death or love of life. yeah i felt very bad depression which a lot of people deal with at certain points what stops you killing yourself. i think what stopped me was the fact that i had children and people who depended on me and people who love me. and you just think in a sense is a very selfish thing you can use or because you make so much mess sooner you do

terrible things to the people around you and i would have you know for my children . and maybe i would like to tell you that there was a glimmer of hope there but there wasn't that so and now i remember driving and seeing the bridge and thinking i could do this but i just thought it would make you know i have to somehow discover what was going on and. yeah it would be a bad thing to do because of the people around me and you come out more empowered once you actually. i think if you do certain kinds of work you come out more empowered yeah and i do i do kind of chuck my life and check myself into a depression clinic you know which was actually the best thing i ever did because it was a new. i restart sing your car you know and i had to ditch my preconceptions and that would definitely gave me a new. a new energy and it wasn't instant but it gave me the tools to deal with going to slightly differently i think you have to get to the point where you throw

everything away. because that's the only way you can make a new start i realised that if i did not deal with its oppression i was no use to anybody so it's the same kind of logic is not killing yourself you know. killing yourself is really bad for everybody around you but wasn't staying in depression was very bad for everyone around you so it's not you struggling and trying to keep doing what you've been doing the whole time it's it's going to be the same thing you know you have to somehow get outside. and trust that you can come back in as a person who can deal with things that. you've got all the money you want educated men you love staring at stars would you consider maybe flying as a space tourist you know i don't like being a tourist it's funny that you say that you know if i was flying in there was some reason for it in this place i think i would enjoy it more it's like being here. i keep busy in my life and it's quite hard for me it's like a week off just to come to generate or go i'd love to know what but there was an

excuse to come here i had work to do i had things would be achieved and i think that's made me and joy the sunshine and and the more the fact that i'm sort of part of the life of the sign and i love the sun and anyway and it's because of the work really it's not because of being a tourist so you know if there was some reason to go into space if i thought it would. stop people torturing animals. but i would enjoy it have you spoken to some of the brilliant brains our times for the past three days what do you think would you think could be or is high praise to the twenty first century the high priest of the twenty fourth and boy oh boy boy oh. maybe nelson mandela. because he has a very important team i think apart from wisdom and knowledge. he has the key

of forgiveness which i think saved his country completely from a blood. and i think people the people who run this planet studied under nelson mandela and we would definitely get a better planet and i think that would be more than anyone else i think he has the key right thank you very much for this interview him. issues three critical patients three store judges three. arrangement three. three stooges three. sleeves long to close in videos for your media project
