Nerdist with Neil deGrasse Tyson (Two Episodes)
About | Information | History | Online | Facts | Discovery
http://nerdist.com Part One - Matt and I ventured to New York to chat up one of their favorite people Neil deGrasse Tyson, who is always the smartest person in the room. Any room. Dr. Tyson is the Frederick P. Rose Director of the Hayden Planetarium at the Rose Center for Earth and Space. He also hosts NOVA scienceNOW on PBS and the ever enthralling StarTalk, which Mira and I were lucky enough to sit in on for the episode posting November 13th. Beyond all that, HE IS FUNNY. Like, actually hilarious. This ep covers everything from Cosmology to quarks with a side of space sex. We had damn near unhealthy amounts of fun and I hope to con Dr. Tyson to coming on again in the near future. (11/09/2011) Part Two - The amazing and brilliant Neil deGrasse Tyson returns to the Nerdist podcast! He enlightens us even more about current astronomy news and talks to Chris about the reality of Star Trek!

Wrong, Neil. Superman could have slowed down the rotation of the Earth gradually and then accelerated it back the other way gradually instead of creating an instant change in direction.

Degrasse thinks science is true whether you lie about it or not

I would love to pick at Neil's brain. He's very good at explaining things.

About NdGT's response to Superman reversing the rotation of the Earth... I don't think we'd all go flying due east at 800mph because Superman isn't stopping it on a dime. He slowed the earth and got it going backwards over a period of time... Wouldn't that cushion the blow, as it were?

Orion splashed down just a few weeks ago, un-manned test flight. Will take humans into deeper space soon. So we got more than mock ups :) a little optimism please

Who needs drugs when you can get high on science xD

Every time he says, "I'm unauthorized to say" I'm like, "Why? It's stuffs like these that spawn the conspiracy theories that we all hate and laugh at"
-
It took Neil 70+ seconds to solve a Rubik's cube? Shit, it takes me less than half that.
