    If Neil looks up into the night sky and appears surprised, you'd better run for cover or start praying.

      Being an agnostic I'd say pray. There is a better chance of surviving than running.

    On describing the quantity of stars in a galaxy, I propose we adopt a new unit of measurement: The Sagan. Beelieuns and beelieuns of stars.

    Think about how long that meteorite traveled for you to witness it's death.

    What astrophysicist wouldn’t get a rush from that? Cool stuff

    I wasn't hit by a meteorite, but I once was almost hit by flaming, falling fireworks that were launched from a lake in Chicago. Literally they were falling on the beach and lighting people's blankets on fire.

    Decades ago, up in Maine, saw a meteor that streaked across the sky as a fireball, as it broke up into flaming pieces. I'll never forget it.

    I've seen meteor showers before but I don't remember ever seeing exactly what Neil described. Pretty amazing

    It is also magical to see the stars at night from the middle of the Pacific with no Moon. It's like walking in space - how the night sky looked to the ancients.

    Can you talk about Proxima Centuri B? Life on that planet? Intelligent life?

    What if the finite point of data whether cosmic or computer virtual data is wiped by the very definable etching of wiped data in the inter-matter non-dimensional web of interconnected ideas of what it is itself, the description of recombinable stuffs from each of the versions within unique yet repeated without unique interactions from the matter, the matter then recombines and desyncs reach factor of Uniqueness from afar as a reaction sense graphically and visually and and wave energy and it's completed

    Hmmm so there really is no eye piece on those huge telescopes? That's disappointing, but expected.
    I always wondered where would they place an eyepiece for viewing, because those observatories, like the ones in the canary islands are so huge and yet so very fragile. I just assumed, or envisioned that images coming through them would have to come to a computer for viewing. ❤

    7:01 - His comment reminds me of the Sophons' from Three Body Problem. The fact that human development was accelerating so quickly, that by the time they would reach Earth to invade it humanity would already be more technologically developed than they and would destroy them. Hence their fear.
    That aside, while I understand Dr. Tyson's take that any time is an amazing time to be alive, you have to accept that humanity's development is accelerating quickly and I think that's what he was getting at, albeit expressed not so eloquently, haha. So it would have been interesting to have heard the explanation for the acceleration. It kind of reminds me of Moore's Law with transistors. Is humanity going to develop faster than we can keep up with? It's already been difficult for people to adapt to a world with generative AI, for instance. Imagine developments coming out faster and faster... crazy. So yes, I can see how people in the past could have appeared "dumber" to him than people today but that's not the reason, of course, haha.

    ❤❤❤ I swear when he talks about the universe its absolutely Majickal. He'll go off and say something crazy from time-to-time, but no one quite aligns the cosmos the way he does.
    Anyone else screws it all up with nonsense, and delusional equations they don't understand in their own mind, yet alone trying to explain to you.
    If the universe had extra material left over from its dark matter. It probably cut a piece off, and sent it down to earth and said, "Here take this piece, and make it a astrophysicist. He'll be able to listen to me and the stars...✨and by the way shield his true name, and call him Neil...The Star Talker"

    Unless someone picked up a meteorite and threw it at you or a meteor bounced off the earth and flew toward you, you were almost hit by a meteor, not a meteorite.

    i had a dream about aliens… crazy it was like starring at their version of Galileo… they discovered radio sounds, but they did not discover how to interface with it… so they explain it as a theocracy government it was the universe speaking. sadly they had no telescopes on that planet and the civilization lost a great mind and the item became a relic that no one could explain. then we figured out how to travel deep space and meet up with the civilization who look exactly like us but a fraction more heavier in density. if they would make it back to our planet their evolution would make them 1/8 heavier then us…

      but they metabolize the same thing and look like us.

    If aliens sees us now 2 million light-years away they will probably see how we are living in caves right about now! Which also means that they might visit us 2 million years from now.

    E=mc2 I ask this. c is a constant with a mathematical definition and we translate that to verbal description. If you question C physics loses it S**t by verbal associations if what C means rather than saying math C means something just we translated things incompletely. Why does this not come into the perception?

    90 degrees (sideways) or 180 (upside down) degrees Neil, you said 90 degrees _ 1 point on my score card

    Ok we start in the middle of infinity, the creator has fractured part of its’ soul to create a human soul attached to the creator’s soul…now we insert this IDEA/thought of the creator- down into the middle of infinity and CAUSE time along with space to be disrupted creating gravity as we are separated partially from the creator, which IS EVERYTHING BEING INFINITY…now to have free will the creator must allow us to choose in life as it >only< rebalances the entire universe. NOW humans learn to CREATE THOUGHTS in the middle of infinity which AGAIN spreads time and you call it space…. So as the creator is infinitely everywhere that is exactly why the universe grows in all directions in all directions. The thoughts we create in the middle of infinity occur AFTER our soul and BEFORE light created….. so it’s in the middle of creation somewhere that we create thoughts (1) then we create DARKNESS (2) you say your in a womb, THEN we create LIGHT(3) ->YOU say your born. NOW we create the world the ones before us see, this is done by overlapping the older ones view thru the creator to the younger 1/2 gods… in each child ( it’s why you see many cards creating lines in the double slit light experiment/and as you doubt being a 1/2 god you only see “ONE” CARD YOUR VIEW)
    WE see a body thing after the dark time and space form that you call peripheral vision.. but only 1/2 180degrees in the place you call earth that is actually 1/2 infinity after light created--close your eyes to see the OTHER BIGGER HALF OF INFINITY…. There hasn’t been any light created there yet cause your mind IS IN THE FUTURE. Your soul is with god even further past the future…..called ->infinity😇
    That took what ? 2024 years and a lot of death/suffering to find out
    YOUR HALF GOD ALMIGHTY TWO EYES WE HAVE NO TAIL NO MORE NO MORE
    Quantum entanglement, dark energy, schroder’s cat, irrational number Pi……WOW …….WOWWY WOW
    Love Christopher Walkens’.
