More quotes by Neil deGrasse Tyson
I can't think that leaving Earth once is enough.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
But my vote for Venus's most peculiar feature is the presence of craters that are all relatively young and uniformly distributed over its surface. This innocuous-sounding feature implicates a single planetwide catastrophe that reset the cratering clock... turning Venus's entire surface into the American automotive dream-a totally paved planet.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
If something comes up that is completely freaky, it's spiritual-looking to the scientist, the first explanation is not going to be that it's God, because the history of that has failed. It would have to be, like, the hundredth explanation.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
In the New Testament, Thomas Jefferson cut out everything that was mystical, magical, miracle - physically with scissors - and then pasted in all that remained, such as Jesus's Sermon on the Mount.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
When we try to look farther into the universe we come to what appears to be the end of space but actually it's the beginning of time.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
If there's a Devil, that mean's there's a God.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
The persistent failures of controlled, double-blind experiments to support the claims of parapsychology suggest that what's going on is nonsense rather than sixth sense.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
The discovery of any kind of life [in Space] at all would be a tremendous watershed moment in biology, as well as all of science.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
We are not simply in the universe, we are part of it. We are born from it. One might even say we have been empowered by the universe to figure itself out - and we have only just begun.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
One of the things that fascinates me most is when people are so charmed by the universe that it becomes part of their artistic output.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
I am not the most annoying person to bring to a movie 'cause I basically hold it in and write about it later or tweet about it. The most annoying people to bring to movies, I think we all agree, are those who read the book first.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Many people feel small because they're small and the universe is big, but I feel big.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Science, and its impact on a person's livelihood is the common denominator.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
One of the reasons we're here, that we exist at all, is that Earth, cosmically speaking, is in a relatively peaceful place: orbiting our Sun in a near perfect circle.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
There are as many atoms in each molecule of your DNA as there are stars in the typical galaxy. This is true for dogs, and bears, and every living thing. We are, each of us, a little universe.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Santa knows Physics: Of all colors, Red Light penetrates fog best. That's why Benny the Blue-nosed reindeer never got the gig.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
The world, I think, has too many late-night talk shows.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Perhaps these ancient observatories like Stonehenge perennially impress modern people because modern people have no idea how the Sun, Moon, or stars move. We are too busy watching evening television to care what's going on in the sky.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Feeling a little small? Well, in the context of the cosmos, we are small.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Science surrounds you. It's not something that you can step aside, step over or push out of your way because you were never good at science in school. Science is around you. Once you know and embrace that fact, it might stimulate curiosity within you to learn more about the natural world.
