  • Great interview! this makes me happy to be from his hometown: THE BRONX! Science is fun!

  • @Buddhabright I don't much about the technology, as this is the first I have heard of it, but if I were to venture a guess I would say it's magic.

  • I envy what Neil Degrasse Tyson has with a ferocity and a sorrow.

    You can tell that there are people who just learn just enough to muddle by. And there are those who have an earnest passion and love for a thing.

    People don't get it. "Just drawing a paycheck" is the definition of mediocrity. If you're in that camp, you're just an imitator of the folk who actually have a deep, almost moral, commitment to their work.

    It's the one thing that separates the genius from everybody else.

  • @casplash4 A good first step would be to learn to spell it properly. "Astronomer".

  • Love Tyson. Interviewer was very nice, but i've heard the same questions every time. Don't mind hearing the answers twice though.

  • Neil Degrasse Tyson, I would like to thank you for all your knowledge and your passion of science. For it has changed both my schooling and life completely. The fact that science unifies all disciplines of studies and drives society forward, gives me idea's I have you to thank for.

    I recently purchased your book, "Death by Black Hole" and I'm itching to read it. Keep your eyes on the prize, and keep doing what your doing. I look forward for what you have to contribute in the near future!

  • @slipshodcoqbgg Engines running on magnets only? How the fuck do they work?

  • lmfao. "NOW I'M ABOUT TO DO SCIENCE!"

  • I would love a autographed book from Dr. Tyson
