Science and art are two sides of the same coin: Ali Hyder, Ph.D., NASA Postdoctoral Fellow

May 08, 2025

Ali Hyder, Ph.D., was raised in a family of artists and is himself a musician, which seems a far cry from his research modeling the hydrodynamics of the surfaceless planet Jupiter but he believes art and science fuel each other. Science is also art because you have to be creative in a specific way, he says in this interview for Further Together: The ORAU Podcast. Hyder takes a deep dive into why modeling Jupiter's hydrodynamics is important for better understanding Earth, as well as how he became interested in science and the NASA Postdoctoral Fellowship Program.
