An adult scientist is a kid who never grow up. That is the true side of Tyson and every scientist or science student fascinated deeply about the fascinating nature of nature. That was the best speech ever performed by Tyson. I hope it have made a difference.

@@no12578 YT hides many of my comments. Science shows creation can't happen naturally so it had to be supernatural. Still, even though natural lost 100%, you ignore that and all is natural to you even when it can't be.
He should move to Europe and give these kind of motivational speeches here. Reading through the comments here, I am getting the feeling he is not really all that liked at home.
I admire Neil for his passion and his life long mission to encourage people to notice the possibilities we can have if we put our thoughts into space exploration. I hope he has a counterpart or perhaps an elon musk character as well that is more on ocean frontier. Space is one thing but our oceans is another. Perhaps someday someone can do something about stopping tsunamis, globe wide cleaning of our oceans, making sea exploration so easy that we can easily detect and rescue crashes that happens in the oceans no matter how far and how deep it may be.
I don't care if it happens in my life time or my grandkids lifetime. I just want humanity to spread across the stars. We've conquered every environment we've come across, it's what we're good at. It's our destiny as a species. After having read Man After Man though I wonder what humanity will become to get there.
Mid-March 1973, The Draft was halted. I was eligible & my draft # was 86. I had my Pre-induction physical complete AND I was going to Viet-Nam General Hershey said we don’t need the last 15,000 draftees. I am alive now , at 69 years young, I was headed to hell. VIVA Neil DeGrasse Tyson. Today is 7/24/2022. ❤️ Peace.
Really? That's interesting, because to me, it is simply a "passionate" presentation style. He makes it clear that this is stuff he really cares about, and wants others to care about as well. It also keep my attention better than many other public speakers.
His point about kids is awesome and sad ad the same time. I've seen kids "trained" not to touch anything. Kids that should know why they can't touch certain stuff are being told NO because NO and that's it. No works as a reason and the explaination. Some parents are happy when their child is just sitting quiet, messing with a phone because THEY prefer it. I'm sorry, as a 5 yo I have desintegrated my grandfather's radio cassette player just to see what's inside. He wasn't mad, he was astonished that I could find the tools to do it. Then I've made my first bow, bicycle trailer, little shed which took all of my grandfather's nails. I've made a lot of mistakes, learned from them and carried on. But I have to say that almost none of that would be possible I would have been born in some big city. Currently people are histerical when kids are playing in the sand because it might be dirty. I slept in my dog's house and made tea from straw. This was normal, kids knew to do things with knives and tools but today the same tools got warning stickers on them for adults! Where are we going? Come to Poland, we'll teach you! Maybe not how to land on the Moon but you know...
I was always hoping to have a preacher for science, and now thanks God we have one, hallelujah!. Most scientist are smart but they are boring. Neil is right we all benefit but we stop to think where it came from
As a pastor for 35 years I agree and love his passion and devotion. His talks help me understand the universe and draws me closer to the ultimate divine designer
Even the president doesn’t believe in climate change. People don’t know how the universe works. Science should be a culture honestly. The world will get better, faster, healthier and stronger. Let’s come together and be a thinker
"Saturn 5s are the moon rocket and in no way used to propel ICBMs" a great point. if an SV, launched from earth, were to hit another place on earth, that location would be devastated in a way that ICBM designers could only dream of.
Long speech but every sentence is interesting. Even the improvised answers. Even though the intended audience is nasa people which I am not. With humor even though the message is dead serious. I couldn't stop listening halfway.
One problem I have, still have, is that people travelling through the Van Allen belts is impossible. They will die in microwaves. Also, the Apollo missions are the most impressive ever, but somehow NASA lost ALL pictures, data and the rest. As mister Pettit from NASA says: "If we could go to the moon again, I would go today!". Please do not reply without knowledge through research.
I see a lot of this on YT but I don't see Dr Tyson as a politician, and worse...I would NOT want him to be mired in the bureaucratic mess that is the Federal Gov. He is in a far better position to affect change where he is at. :)
By going to more planets we can possibly find more resources. More resources can be used to make more things efficiently and etc. Its all about basic resources. People say there is no stupid question but at the same time think before you speak or comment.
Great talk. One more thing I'd like to add: the 60s-70s were great times for environmentalism not just because of our advancement in space, but partly thanks to the hippie movement - even the Whole Earth Catalog, which NDT mentioned, was created shortly after its creator, Stewart Brand, tripped on LSD. Psychedelic drugs opened our minds to the bigger picture and undoubtedly showed us our place in the the cosmos and our intimate relationship with nature. They certainly did so for me.
33:59 its easy to say innovate but you must realize that the world is a small place and there's nothing new under the sun ....patents on innovations also take job your jobs over seas patents
The survival of our species depends on the space program. If we stay here long enough, eventually we'll be wiped out by global disaster, pandemic, a big enough meteorite, etc. Our species future is in the stars. If we want to thrive and survive we need to get out there.
The 60's was big in space programs because of the USSR had the first satellite launched during the cold war era. Not because the politicians in that era were so interested in space or space engineers. Like he said "if China put military bases on Mars , we will be in Mars in 10 months"
The most profound and effective anecdote I've heard him use to illustrate the reason for a population to demand their nation invest in exploration is; "Steve Jobs was 13 years old in 1969. Bill Gates was 14. In 1969, America successfully landed humans on the moon. Despite an ongoing hot war in Southeast Asia, an anti-communism cold war, unprecedented social and political upheaval, (the civil rights movement, assassinations, and Presidential impeachment.) And civic unrest and social revolution. The impact on the social, economic, and secure future of a Nation investing in exploration was demonstrated unequivocally. The people leading invention and innovation, solving the world's economic and societal problems today, were DIRECTLY inspired by their experiences then." If we want to keep maximizing the inspiration of our children, we HAVE to invest in the most inspirational, and audacious collective activities, as a society NOW. The people making our communication and entertainment devices, cell phones, optimizing the Earth's habitability, and rehabilitating our fossil-fuel dependency, inventing new medicines and treatments, and perfecting our methods of transportation in 20 years, will be the ones inspired by the possibilities we demonstrate we are capable of TODAY!

He's written many books 😂 in fact his speeches are pretty much summaries of what he covers in his books.
Calling him a lobbyist is wrong in so many ways. He just loves the universe and the pursuit of knowledge.

We should all write him in during the next election.
The survival of our species depends on the space program. If we stay here long enough, eventually we'll be wiped out by global disaster, pandemic, a big enough meteorite, etc.
Our species future is in the stars. If we want to thrive and survive we need to get out there.
No doubt we will eventually accomplish it when enough time passes-- that is, if humanity can avoid destroying itself.
the world can rest easier at night because of people like Neil.
We should all pay attention to what he says.
Neil as the president!
fucking ads on you tube are pissing me off
I love his spastic hand motions! :P

The 60's was big in space programs because of the USSR had the first satellite launched during the cold war era. Not because the politicians in that era were so interested in space or space engineers. Like he said "if China put military bases on Mars , we will be in Mars in 10 months"
The most profound and effective anecdote I've heard him use to illustrate the reason for a population to demand their nation invest in exploration is;
"Steve Jobs was 13 years old in 1969.
Bill Gates was 14.
In 1969, America successfully landed humans on the moon.
Despite an ongoing hot war in Southeast Asia, an anti-communism cold war, unprecedented social and political upheaval, (the civil rights movement, assassinations, and Presidential impeachment.) And civic unrest and social revolution.
The impact on the social, economic, and secure future of a Nation investing in exploration was demonstrated unequivocally.
The people leading invention and innovation, solving the world's economic and societal problems today, were DIRECTLY inspired by their experiences then."
If we want to keep maximizing the inspiration of our children, we HAVE to invest in the most inspirational, and audacious collective activities, as a society NOW.
The people making our communication and entertainment devices, cell phones, optimizing the Earth's habitability, and rehabilitating our fossil-fuel dependency, inventing new medicines and treatments, and perfecting our methods of transportation in 20 years, will be the ones inspired by the possibilities we demonstrate we are capable of TODAY!
