Neil deGrasse Tyson Makes a Case for More Space Exploration

[Jack Lynt]

If anyone can get us excited about space exploration and science, it seems to be Neil deGrasse Tyson.

From half a penny to a penny? Persuaded?

He is the greatest. I just love everything about him. If I were a kid and I saw his passion and enthusiasm and intelligence on tv, I'd want to be an astrophysicist. Simply awesome this guy.

Thanks for posting Richy. I'm definitely going to watch this.

Carl Sagan. R.I.P.

I think a good part of the issue is technology needs to advance more for deep space exploration. Humans were not made to exist in zero gravity for any great length of time. That's why robots and space probes are doing the work in deep space.

If artificial gravity cannot become a real life reality for spaceships, robots and cyborgs with metal, instead of human skelatons may have to explore space for us.

Carl Sagan. R.I.P.

Indeed. Much agreed.

NDT has, in many ways, taken up Sagan's mantle of popularizing science, esp. astronomy. I'm a fan.

Love Neil. Definitely my favorite Astrophysicist.
