About Hencoup Enterprises

Hi! We're Nigel Henbest and Heather Couper, two international science communicators based in the leafy Chiltern Hills, halfway between Oxford and London, England

Astrophysicists by training, we now popularise astronomy and space - not to mention weather, volcanoes, the countryside and archaeology. Between us we cover all the media, from TV to newspapers, voice-overs to corporate presentations, radio to books

In addition to our own separate professional lives (see Heather's and Nigel's own web pages) we also collaborate on projects where we can bring together a synergy of our combined skills and enthusiasm. And with names like Henbest and Couper, what else could we call ourselves but "Hencoup Enterprises"?!

We first met as undergraduates at the University of Leicester, England, where we discovered a mutual interest in science and the media - not to mention international travel, the English countryside, good veggie food and excellent New World wines!
