UVa professor's TV show debuts Sunday!

National Geographic Channel, the channel HDTVs were made for watching, will debut the show "Known Universe" this Sunday at 8 PM.

One of the hosts of that show is Lou Bloomfield, a beloved member of the Physics department at UVa. Students flock to Lou's classes, especially the ever popular PHYS 106: How Things Work (he has a similarly named website for the public).
