It was really nice to get news about something else besides politics

[timmack]

I saw both Venus AND Jupiter this morning!
I'm glad the strip club is open early.

[berrari]

The fact I wasn’t even surprised when I saw this is just showing how crazy 2020 been honestly

[adneyas]

its so funny how they showed random space photos while he talks

[Edward-kopn]

I have to admit, I really enjoyed this interview. Neil explains things in a easy to understand way with just the right amount of technical jargon as well as some light humour. Very interesting.

[Joshuadalewillis]

Imagine the feeling of the scientist that actually found this and weren’t asked to interview

[jadecoley]

When he talks about collaboration and she replies "it's like social distancing among scientists" I think she missed his point.

[rebeccastephanie]

i love how he said "life—life as we know it" because a lot of things we predict are based on the science that we are familiar today, anyhow i've always loved this man!

[kolbymartin]

It's so amazing how life varies planet to planet, a heartbeat isn't even proof on earth.

[duckmagnet]

Bacteria is life on Venus but a heartbeat isn't life on Earth... weird...

[sburgos]

This is why we need a moon lab. Take those microbes there to run the tests. Make sure its safe before bringing it back here.

[langolier]

This man is truly a saint he said his thing about science and then he tied it into the worlds people coming together to achieve some thing this man is a saint

[drthknight]

I love Neil's enthusiasm, he's amazing.

[sully]

Should we replace "Deer in the headlights" with "Melissa Francis listening to Neil deGrasse Tyson"?

[Val_Halla]

Why does she look like her inside voice is “Try and look like you understand”.

[nikith]

She is just doing her job guys. Chill out

[electricdreamer]

It's 2020. At this rate of what everything is happening. Nothing is impossible.

[peteyn.y.]

Let's Goooo!!! New York 4 Trump/Pence 2020!!!! Vote IN Person!!! That’s a wrap!!!!

[andrewbenner]

You know where else the potential for life exists? It's really close. Closer than you think. And we've cut off its future 60+ million times in modern history.

[thehonorablejiveturkey]

I always liked Neil Degrasse. He makes his space knowledge worth listening to for everyone. Yes he is an honor
