Galileo, Figaro, Magnifico

Legendary Queen guitarist Brian May, 60, is completing a Ph.D. in astrophysics. His doctoral thesis/dissertation is called "Radial Velocities in the Zodiacal Dust Cloud." Kinda makes you wonder what Tom Shipley would call his dissertation -- but we digress. Mindy Limback will give ten bucks to the first person who can explain what "Radial Velocities in the Zodiacal Dust Cloud" means in three clear sentences or less. Leave comments.
