More quotes by Neil deGrasse Tyson
We are part of this universe we are in this universe, but perhaps more important than both of those facts, is that the universe is in us.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
95, 96 percent of all that drives the universe has no known origin.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
I don't see why there is no intelligent alien life in the universe.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
When asked about which scientist he'd like to meet, Neil deGrasse Tyson said, Isaac Newton. No question about it. The smartest person ever to walk the face of this earth. The man was connected to the universe in spooky ways. He discovered the laws of motion, the laws of gravity, the laws of optics. Then he turned 26.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
I always wanted to be respected for my mind.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
There are two ways you can receive energy from your environment: One is molecules bumping against you. That's the air. The other is radiative energy. That's what you're feeling from the sun. When they say Get out of the sun, out of the heat, the air is the same temperature it's just you're exposed to sunlight.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
The Earth is just one place of many that we could hang our hats.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
I don't live life to be remembered for anything.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
If Earth ever suffers a runaway greenhouse effect (like what has happened on Venus), then our atmosphere would trap excess amounts of solar energy, the air temperature would rise, and the oceans would swiftly evaporate into the atmosphere as they sustained a rolling boil. This would be bad.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Our nation is turning into an idiocracy.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
To the scientist, the universality of physical laws makes the cosmos a marvelously simple place. By comparison, human nature-the psychologist's domain-is infinitely more daunting.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Some of us wake up in the morning and just wonder how it is any of us actually sustain a paid job.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Aliens might be surprised to learn that in a cosmos with limitless starlight, humans kill for energy sources buried in the sand
Neil deGrasse Tyson
It’s short-sighted to think ads won’t one day end up wherever humans are - even the moon.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Who you are, where you've been and what you've done is all up here, captured and preserved in your memories. If you lost that - the story of your own origins - you'd lose your identity, your sense of self.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Today, scientists sound the alarm on other environmental dangers. Vested interests still hire their own scientists to confuse the issue. But in the end, nature, will not be fooled.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
I try to keep this in mind when tied in to a rope 75 feet up in a tree... The history of ideas about our place in the universe has been a long series of let-downs for those who like to believe we are special.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Science is like an inoculation against charlatans who would have you believe whatever it is they tell you.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
I bet most of the crowd does not know that there are six moons in the solar system bigger than Pluto.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
If you want a nation to have space exploration ambitions, you've got to send humans.
