I'm not upset. I have listened to what he has to say, i'm not saying that he's not a foremost physicist...

Wow, way to make a snap judgment.This guy is one of the foremost physicists of his generation, (if not the formost) listen to what he has to say before getting upset that he's a scientist.

I don't think I like this guy. Celebrity and astrophysicist really shouldn't go hand in hand. He reminds me of theamazingatheist.

This guy is a genius...he's of the same fabric as Carl Sagan..these guys are so above our mental "pay scale". Hes breakin things down in simple terms but is quite impressive if ya read up on him and his theoretics. On a downside, I feel like Im watchin a Tarantino flick with this one view of a 2 person conversation. Eventho its about Neil, I just want to see the face of the annoying slow talking Dennis Miller sound-a-like whos voice is like nails on the chalkboard.

Anyone see Tyson's C-SPAN2 special for his Death by a Black Hole book? It was awesome. He touched on this Apophis stuff in the Q&A and said the same thing about deflecting it. He also described what it would be like if Apophis went through the keyhole and impacted off the west coast of the US. It sounds awesome!

wtf you talking about? deGrasse Tyson is massively knowledgeable about the Universe. Have you read any of his many papers? Or books? Or are you just some closet bigot spouting off racist remarks over the anonymity of YouTube? I'm leaning towards the latter. Go away douchebag.
