Neil Tyson, I can not sleep by myself without background noise. Every time I need background noise to sleep, I choose your 30 minute+ videos every. Single. Time. May the gods bless you.
Im the same way but I can never sleep once I start one of his interviews... I stay up all night watching documentaries and just listening and taking in everything he says.. its a double edged sword
I always choose his videos as well. And then I can’t fall asleep bc I need to think. Even with his lecture videos. I started eating at 10pm. It’s now 1:20am. And I’m more awake than ever. Lmao. I’ll try the 3 hour joe Rogan video next. Haha
WTF?????? Earth and humanity is, almost, nothing compared to the universe. As each year passes, we learn more and more of the universe and less and less about our signifigance.
Neil deGrasse Tyson is the most charismatic figure educating the masses today. His passion for science and discovery is obvious and delightful. He's very intelligent, plainly, and watching him speak is a privilege.
If you call spreading misinformation "educating". The man is a bull shitter. hopsblog-hop.blogspot.com/2016/01/fact-checking-neil-degrasse-tyson.html#HamidAlGhazali
I respect the fact at the end he saw the young girl and said Nope I'm going to answer her question, pulled her on stage and took the time to answer even though he was double booked. Because it's more devastating for kids to feel like they've been ignored by people they look up to. For kids it's already nerve racking to jump in line but exciting to be able to ask someone like Neil a question. I even more respect that he doesn't make them feel stupid when answer their questions. Muck Love and Respect Neil!
This is one of NDT's best interviews. He skewers Bret Stevens, conservative essayist for NYT, and climate deniers. A hearty defense of reality and the pursuits of science.
I expect you as well as Tyson have never heard of Freeman Dyson. Dyson has made actual contributions to physics. Tyson, on the other hand, is a pop sci guy who often manages to botch his high school math and science. And completely botch his history. Here is Dyson's take: blogs.scientificamerican.com/news-blog/freeman-dyson-and-the-irresistible-2009-04-30/ Tyson's response? Slap Dyson with a label. DENIER! This is the ad hominem fallacy. Tyson and his ilk are ratcheting up the heat and noise in this debate and destroying the signal to noise ratio.
"Dyson has made actual contributions to physics." Not to climate science. He doesn't know what he's talking about. It's a variant of the Nobel disease.
Rather than trading insults, perhaps take a different approach. Engage in a dialogue, a dialogue of inquiry, which sources the root to individual belief statements and explores them. Rather than closing down dialogue it is incumbent upon us all to open up dialogue. To summarise the interview, what Tyson is discussing is questions about the nature of science (NOS). My PhD in science education takes me to understand the pivotal nature of NOS as a human context dimension of scientific literacy. Much research has been done on establishing student and teacher understanding of NOS, and shows how education systems internationally have failed to develop informed understanding of NOS, leaving most of us identified as naive in NOS. This is what Tyson refers to as students being vessels, filled, graduating and then asked to perform. If they perform in science related fields or engage in scientific literacy discourse (e.g. comment forums such as this), they do so from a naive starting point. So find out first what is believed, what may be common, what is different, and only then seek to build informed understanding. Otherwise any forum becomes inundated by such inane comments we observe here. Such inane comments that take us far away from the purpose and effort of an interview such as this with Tyson.
34:20 Aged nigh 20, it is an honor to be knighted as Generation Exoplanet by Neil Degrasse Tyson. A generation of exploration, knowledge and wisdom seeking. May we fix this planet with our minds, not our weapons!
Do none of you so called real persons not shame so easy at pissing in your friends pocket it embarrasses me and all of you as I am one who knows you make every bit of it!
No planet can be fixed with weapons, unless you mean neutered, which means to render sterile. As fascinating is technology is, remember that seeking to resolve biological challenges with technology may not be the best approach. After all, biology has a few million years, or more, of R&D invested. Just because something happens without humans causing it to happen does not mean that that happening is simple or inconsequential.
I'm trying to do my share in that ... I'm a Syrian seeking asylum and I started a science educational channel on TH-cam that covers space launches and events live and in Arabic, with simple explanations and live Q&A: AstroGate بوابة الفضاء (I'm applying to study Astrophysics and searching for a country that would accept my asylum)
I love how he pulled that 9 year old on stage just to answer her question. He knew that he needed to prove why this next generation will keep our home planet safe and our future bright.
33:00 he mentions that he can't wait for the next gen to take over because we're more scientifically curious than others-- he's right! almost solely due to Neil and a show called 'scishow' on youtube I have become aware of the vast majority of knowledge I have yet to discover and it excites me. I'm going to study pollution control in college (right after job corps) and i'm so happy because I found what really intrigues me.
jessyka c: I usually don't comment but ur comment made me too. What a wonderful inspiration u have. Keep the burning flame alive. You chose such a good subject 'polution' & it's today's urgent matter. I hope u remained inspired and who knows what you might discover or achieve. Wish u the best.
"Unfortunately stupid people don't know they're stupid" this is true, i know someone that so unintelligent, that i cant even win an argument with her because her intellect is so limited that she cant comprehend what my side of any argument is, and so my only course of action is to tell her to shut the fuck up because no amount of reasoning and logic can ever reach her, its just a waist of my time.
I remember that when I was a boy the idea that stupid people do not know that they are stupid used to terrify me. Because I thought that most the people I knew were stupid. And I used to worry me that I was the stupid one and did not know it.

Your answer to her first question!!! I love how easily you are comfortable to tell people they are wrong, how and why.... It's just great! More people need your courage and conviction with their beliefs and wisdom and arguments. And your humor... You are actually witty and funny. Thanks for being, well you. You do it well
I really wish I started listening to NDT when I was younger. If I would have listened to him explain science when I was in high school my whole perspective on taking school serious most likely would have changed
you either are mature enough to understand its important or youre not. retrospectivally, now that youre older, of course youre going to think that, but it has less to do with Neil. Stop making excuses for yourself. Neil is a brilliant man with the ability to inspire curiosity, not to create motivation where there was none. I know this bc i was the same, and i was already fascinated by science, but my priorities were simply different. But thats life, it is what it is. Better focus on what you can do now than lament the past
Nick - It is never to late to take education seriously. (Correction: "...taking school seriously...") In your defence, (I prefer the British spelling), school in the U.S.A. has become a tax-payer funded childcare service that also teaches children to do what those in authority tell them to do, and maybe also to trust whatever the experts tell us unquestioningly. Actually teaching a solid foundation of the basics - reading comprehension, the ability to communicate clearly in writing, and mathematics, plus enough of a basic understanding of science and history to give each of us the ability to function in a free republic - seems to be getting less emphasis. Language is as important as science, by the way. Otherwise we would have no way to communicate clearly, especially those things which either are not reducible to mathematics, or which none of us know how to communicate using math. The purpose of language is to facilitate clarity of communication.
Neil Degrasse Tyson is such a wonderful guy. Love listening to his talks! Such a genuine person & his passion is clear as day, and you can see that despite fame he has retained his own personality
Neil is a great person who is very passioned about the universe and talks about it in a understandable way with some humour. It's nice to watch him talk, he keeps it amusing and i never digress. I wish he was my uncle or older brother haha.
@@Moon_Owl_Whisperer The ancient Greeks knew when you travel north or south, the angle to Polaris, the pole star, changes. When you travel east or west it stays the same. Earth is a planet. You can observe that yourself.

And, judging by all the stuff he gets wrong, hasn't cracked a textbook in that time either. He's a pop science celebrity who spreads misinformation. I would give him credit for being an educator if he invested more time and effort to get it right.
@@wallingnaga6563 I've compiled a list of Tyson's questionable claims. With each item I cite my sources. hopsblog-hop.blogspot.com/2016/01/fact-checking-neil-degrasse-tyson.html Most of Tyson's misinformation is harmless. Who cares if his listeners thinking there are more transcendental numbers than irrationals? It's not as if you or 99.9% of Tyson's poser wannabe nerd fans will ever actually study Cantor's ideas on infinite sets. Much worse is when Tyson uses his imagination and poor memory to invent history. And then uses his bad history to push a narrative. Revising history is a serious offense.
But at the end, if you turn the volume way up, you can here someone say, "There is no dark side of the moon, really. As a matter of fact it's all dark." Thump thump . . . Thump thump . . . Thump thump . . . [Repeat and fade.] The moon looks black and white to us only due to the extreme contrast and dark background. If you're there it's not as white. Hence the bit about it being dark.
Someone asks, "what one video under 20 minutes do you wish the entire world would watch and fully understand?" Me, "Neil deGrasse Tyson Explains How Science Works." (That's this one minute 3:09 - 17:01). There are many great videos about kindness, empathy, living a life of purpose, innovation, technology, etc. that compete for a very close second. The misunderstanding of the scientific process and the belief that it is "one of many ways" to understand the natural world is, in my opinion, the root of so many persistent problems we face today. They all have solutions that can only be discovered and implemented when we all have a singular common answer to the question, "how do we know what we know?"
I'm within the Generation Exo Planet. Man, I just love Tyson. He's such an inspiration. I just finished the chapter of Dark Energy and love every page of the book :)
I know about Neil deGrasse Tyson because of the "Watch out we got a badass over here" meme. Meme can be the start of an amazing journey for a person like me who has been interested in cosmic knowledge/information for years and yet have never heard of this guy before simply because the many articles I read did not mention his name.
When I was a kid in school in the late 80's my biggest problems was what Neil mentions in the beginning of the talk: I was completely unable to just memorize and regurgitate information verbatim. I need to understand how things work. My grades sucked, I did not get a a higher education or a good job. But I'm pretty happy still, knowing all the stuff I know about the pale blue dot we inhabit, whilst trying to steer clear of Dunning and his pal Kruger. #AlwaysCurious
I've always been curious about space and science. I'm glad I learned English (not native) so I could listen to people like Neil DeGrass Tyson talk about them. Also you know... videogames.
52:30 Answer:Have you ever seen the wind>? No But you see its effects all around you. When a tree leans and leaves blow and a cool breeze lands upon your face, you know that wind is there.
If anyone got lost at 44:25 here is a title ``we are gonna..can we just have an image of Saturn..um..aaa...ahh..aw...al..oh the Earth..well can we see the..we have the..just as..that`s..and then can we see the next one..which is..so maybe..you can aa..ex..plain to them..`` from the cosmic perspective off course.
Neil for president of USA!!! He can make america great again. Wouldnt it be amazing to have a leader with intelligence that can deeply thing things through logically. He would make other countries fall in line without debate.
I love how he can take a dumb question and turn it into something very interesting and then get such an intelligent response. Something can be learned from anything NDT talks about.
Pluralism, pluralistic and plurality are parts of speech from a common root. Neil's first use of pluralism was correct and the most apt in his response. He has written many many pieces for Natural History magazine. Read them. If you enjoy his public talks at all fine. If you want your critical thinking skills enhanced, opened and your knowledge to enlarge and grow read his books. Q.E.D.
And yet the force of gravity as experienced in any one place on Earth may not be exactly the same as it is in another place. Rupert Sheldrake, another scientist, has an interesting talk on this.
I absolutely agree with Neil. I'm excited to see what this young generation will do to improve life on Earth. And those kids @ ~ 54:00 shows what you can do when you use instant information correctly, while still questioning the world around you.
Most of the things Science learns is tiny inconsequential things that let scientists ask better questions. Neil's example of finding planets neptune and vulcan perfectly illustrates this.
I wish Neil had mentioned how small the deviations of Uranus and Mercury were from the Newtonian orbits. Especially Mercury. If you drew both Newton's predictions and the measured orbits and overlaid them for each planet, you'd be hard pressed to notice any difference.
I'm calling it right now, that little girl @ 1:03:35 is going to be on the frontier of research on black-holes and if we could use them as "portals* to travel time. Wait on it...
That is 'Wait for it.' We are neither on it, as we are on the planet, nor are we serving it, as one who works in a restaurant or store waits on a customer. As the interviewer says, we are waiting for the next generations, like the little girl you mentioned, to expand the frontier of research. It seems that the teaching of language has slipped in the past several decades.
I just love how excited he gets when giving an answer to a kid, and I love how excited these kids are to learn about the mysteries of the cosmos.

His voice is as majestic as the universe he talks about
Absolutely agree. Hers, however, is like fingernails on a chalkboard.

He's not James Earl Jones or James Brown, geezus.

If as a child, I’d heard Neil speak as he does I’d love to think how inspired I could’ve been
He doesn't even know how many times we have been to the moon..are you serious?
52:30 Answer:Have you ever seen the wind>? No But you see its effects all around you. When a tree leans and leaves blow and a cool breeze lands upon your face, you know that wind is there.
Thank you guys and gals.
15:35 mind blown
Even though that last question wasn't as spontaneous as some may believe, I'm so glad he took it the way he did
This is the best person ever made😂😂😂😂😂😂 dude got it going on mannnnn
If anyone got lost at 44:25 here is a title ``we are gonna..can we just have an image of Saturn..um..aaa...ahh..aw...al..oh the Earth..well can we see the..we have the..just as..that`s..and then can we see the next one..which is..so maybe..you can aa..ex..plain to them..`` from the cosmic perspective off course.
😂😂😂
SPEECH definitely isn't at 100
Neil for president of USA!!! He can make america great again. Wouldnt it be amazing to have a leader with intelligence that can deeply thing things through logically. He would make other countries fall in line without debate.
beautiful interview!
"'Ms. Universe' .....please. She's Ms. Earth, get over it" hahah idk why that made me crack up. Love this man
I'm copyrighting Miss (Ms) Multiverse and Miss (Ms) Parallel Universe.
Neil please run for 2020. the world needs you
,,If you gained weight this week, you can't blame the force of gravity" - FALSE!!! My fridge has its own gravity!
If you lose weight or gain weight you can blame the force of gravity because there is more Force being imposed upon you by your total overall gravity
Love to hear his thoughts on Common Core.....
I love how he can take a dumb question and turn it into something very interesting and then get such an intelligent response. Something can be learned from anything NDT talks about.
She's feeling NDT
Jorge Magana she wants the D bro
She wants the Degrasse
Dr. Tyson for pres. 2020
Pluralism, pluralistic and plurality are parts of speech from a common root. Neil's first use of pluralism was correct and the most apt in his response. He has written many many pieces for Natural History magazine. Read them. If you enjoy his public talks at all fine. If you want your critical thinking skills enhanced, opened and your knowledge to enlarge and grow read his books. Q.E.D.
" If you gain weight....*You cant repeal the law of gravity*" Jesus Christ that's the funniest truest thing ive heard all year!! LOLOL OMG!!
It won't stop them from trying.
And yet the force of gravity as experienced in any one place on Earth may not be exactly the same as it is in another place. Rupert Sheldrake, another scientist, has an interesting talk on this.
Neil deGrasse Tyson is a true gentleman!
"Smartphones " i remember when phones flipped open and had Buttons
I absolutely agree with Neil. I'm excited to see what this young generation will do to improve life on Earth. And those kids @ ~ 54:00 shows what you can do when you use instant information correctly, while still questioning the world around you.
NDT is a very effective science popularizer. It's not just scientific researchers who are important for science. We also need people like NDT.
20:25 Listen up, everybody - very important statement there!
Thanks Neil , we’re counting on you
Great tip at 21:21.
If anyone ever want to make their point clear they must do their homework in all aspect.
Most of the things Science learns is tiny inconsequential things that let scientists ask better questions. Neil's example of finding planets neptune and vulcan perfectly illustrates this.
Ah so refreshed!
Neil u are legit
Love this man
Chase K Your icon proves amd approves it lol
Where'd he go after this? Where's that video?
The little girl is so cute and articulate...
There’s no limit on science
I wish Neil had mentioned how small the deviations of Uranus and Mercury were from the Newtonian orbits. Especially Mercury. If you drew both Newton's predictions and the measured orbits and overlaid them for each planet, you'd be hard pressed to notice any difference.
22:47 is a new NDT meme
Y'all think everyone is hitting on ndt, lol...i guess maybe it's true. He gets me excited.
Neil is my hero .
Not a scientist, but a great recounter. "Newton was a badass".
I'm calling it right now, that little girl @ 1:03:35 is going to be on the frontier of research on black-holes and if we could use them as "portals* to travel time. Wait on it...
That is 'Wait for it.' We are neither on it, as we are on the planet, nor are we serving it, as one who works in a restaurant or store waits on a customer. As the interviewer says, we are waiting for the next generations, like the little girl you mentioned, to expand the frontier of research.
It seems that the teaching of language has slipped in the past several decades.
I like Neil deGrasse Tyson for his intelligent talking about Universe's birth .( Regards)
