No one is dumb who is curious. The people who don't ask questions remain clueless throughout their lives.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
With no gravitational force to work against, your body not only doesn't need the same amount of muscle and bone, it starts breaking them down. As on Earth, so in space: use it or lose it. And exercise may not solve the problem.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
I'm not hard to find. I'm all over the Internet.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
I'm a little fatigued of adults saying we've got to worry about the kids. And these are the same adults that don't know science and are running things and wielding resources and legislation.
Neil deGrasse Tyson

I've always been interested in pop culture. Some of my colleagues think of pop culture as beneath them, or there's the ivory tower and then there's everybody else, and I never could buy into that wall that's been put up by so many people over the decades and even the centuries.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
The universe is so amazing and so limitless, who wouldn't want to study the universe?
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Because we all just function, the rest of us, just go to work and come home artists make life bearable. They give perspectives on things we never knew you could have. They bring joy. They explore inner human emotion, and at its best, the full dynamic range of that emotion.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
The show [ StarTalk ] was born as a radio program out of a National Science Foundation grant.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
I don't want to go back into space for military reasons, but the economic driver still remains. And so it's a matter of people understanding how that economic driver is revealed with healthy investments on the space frontier.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
All of the full moons for the entire year are special in that they have particular names.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
No one with a living room radio that was a piece of furniture at the time would say, gee. I want to carry that around on my hip pocket. That was not a thought until NASA initiated this whole exercise. So there's an influence that's not just spinoff.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Scientific literacy is an intellectual vaccine against the claims of charlatans who would exploit ignorance.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Any time we are answer-driven rather than idea driven, we have lost the true meaning of education.
