@TheSproingler, IF people believe that what we don’t understand is God, then “God is an ever receding pocket of scientific ignorance that’s getting smaller and smaller and smaller as time goes on.” I think your quote was a little out of context.
I would love to sit down and talk with this brilliant person but a part of me thinks that i am not even close to being educated enough to have a semi productive conversation with him (ie: a three year old talking about life with an adult) but none the less it would be AWESOME
Perhaps the greatest question of the world of understanding: How did this all began?I bet everyone,every career, every type of person, has different yet similar answer about this…
Is the Universe Thought to Rotating?
Who Pissed in his Cheerio’s? He’s still The Man!
tide goes in… tide goes out.Neil can explain that.
Neil and all the other scientists in this field that have this amount of passion for what they do are my biggest heroes
Neil has the a sort of fatigue in this interview in his response to his questions. This interviewer either was attempting to elicit Tyson’s more blunt side or was genuinely rubbing him a bit crude (IMO). Tyson seems a bit labored in the beginning of this interview, he definitely isn’t having as much fun as an interview with Colbert but nonetheless, he’s got savoir faire in science and communication; what else would you expect from someone who grew up in a smart family from the Bronx?
@Forehead2Brick Sounds about right
@MudHut67 I think curt was the right word. Tyson can be a bit rude; he’s just very good at making his rudeness charming.
@plmko187187 When?
@ito8big curt is typically rude, concise is the word you were looking for.
Neil was great as usual but did anyone else notice how awesome this interviewer was?
@eahazell Kneel before Neil!
I could not agree with everything Neil says more, but he is so obnoxious sometimes…
@robthefirefly, Colbert isn’t literally stupid, he’s a comedian, and his conservative character on Colbert Report is simply a character.
@swilson3d Yes, you have the correct Tyson — he did indeed bite someone’s ear off.
i had to stop this clip and jump over to colbert’s site to see the video of tyson explain the moons gravitational effect on the tides. i was in tears from laughing so hard. i cant believe that people dont know that the moon influences our tides. we learned this as school kids! how does oreilly get away with his ignorance of sun rises and sunsets and tides? personally, i think oreilly does know the science behind tides and sunsets, he is just pushing an agenda. colbert is hilarious.
@TheSproingler…looove that quote lol.
@mroldschoolhiphop1 yeah that’s true.
@TheUntrueFantasy he won’t grasp it.
i hope Bill ‘O Reilly watched this
DeGrasse IS God
@swilson3d youve got the wrong tyson. i really hope you were joking… like REALLY hope you were joking…
This guy seems pretty calm. I heard he bit a guy’s ear off.
