Synopsis

Through the characters of Professor Moustache[2] and his assistant Nathanael,[3] the series humorously answers the scientific questions that fake readers send by postcard, while trying to be as scientifically rigorous as possible. Each article is accompanied by a bibliography detailing the sources that inspired the author. The demonstrations are punctuated with nods to popular culture (The Lord of the Rings, Terminator, Back to the Future, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation,etc.) or to various public figures (Bogdanov brothers, David Hasselhoff, Bernard Henri-Lévy,etc.). Marion Montaigne is often invited by scientists, some of her articles are reports of visits to institutions: the Paris Observatory, the University of Jussieu, the CNES.
