I've always loved airplanes and flight. The space program was really important to me as a kid. I still have a photo of Armstrong and Aldrin on the moon in my living room.

The debate [in Undeniable] was nominally about creationism as a viable explanation for what we observe around us. For my side, the debate went very well I'm not sure what I would change, although I can imagine shortening my answers during the rebuttals, perhaps.

Bill Nye

There is no debate in the scientific community...We need [Congress] to change things, not to deny what's happening.
Bill Nye

The Earth is not 6,000 or 10,000 years old. It's not. And if that conflicts with your beliefs, I strongly feel you should question your beliefs.

I hope climate science becomes the big thing. And then what I want is electrical engineers to solve the world's energy problems, energy distribution problems. I want mechanical engineers to make better transportation systems. I want chemical engineers to develop better solar panels, and so on.

When we sit down to draw or paint the sun's rays, we generally use yellow because in the morning and the evening with the blue light scattered away so strongly you're left with a little bit of red and it comes out yellowish.
