Stephen Hawking was arguably one of the greatest physicists of our generation. What are some of your favorite moments from Neil's interview with Stephen?

[patrickmourin]

Seriously got choked up to see him so happy in the 0 gravity plane.

[harmonytheodore]

The smile when he compared him with Issac Newton...my heart is melting🥺💞

[AreaFiftyJuan]

"People won't have time for you if you are always angry or complaining" - Stephen Hawking. This is my favorite quote from him. Thank you for your great contributions to humanity.

[MarkMach]

Neil is such a good anchor. So respectful when interviewing Stephen. Love him!

Neil talking about Van Gogh really made me cry, and his final speech was incredible! I´m a huge fan

[korey]

Never thought I would see Neil look confused. RIP Stephen Hawking

[ricardopena]

It’s sad to see such an intelligent, determined, and funny man go. The scientific community, no, the world has lost a wonderful asset. You will be dearly missed Dr. Hawking.

[danr]

We need more scientists like Neil. He makes science fun.

[kevinmartinez]

Wow . Watching til the end was worth it. Seeing Michio Kaku, Bill Nye, and hearing that powerful message at the end was moving. Thank you Neil for this amazing episode.

[SuperDopeboy]

RIP Steven Hawking he put me on to astrophysics and the universe I’m in awe of this interview and how they try to make us civilians understand what they’re talking about completely

[Sbc-rpfc]

People like Mr. Tyson and Mr. Hawking are gifts to our civilization. It's like mr. Hawkings body has been sacrificed for his mind. I can't imagine what it's like sitting there with Hawking. I could tell that Mr Tyson was nervous a little.
Mr Tyson, I appreciate what you do. And sharing this information with everyone.

[busyrand]

This is my 5th time viewing this. I learned more with this viewing than any previous viewing. This was an absolute treat that kept on giving. This show and its contributors are treasures of humanity. Thank you for this.

[ADreamingTraveler]

Seeing Neil fanboying out during that interview was kinda cute even if he was being a little silly. Sometimes it's hard to contain your excitement when you're meeting one of your greatest heroes

[andreschneider]

There’s something so exciting about hearing these awesome questions from people and getting “We don’t know yet!” There’s still so much to be discovered and learned!!

[cortexgreen]

3 of my favorite physicists in one episode. I love it.
