Anyone going to listen to him at the Palace on the 9th. I enjoy his TV work and thought I would give this a try. I am not sure what to expect but it should be interesting.

What is it on? is it science specific or just open topics? I love that guy on science.

Cosmic collisions is what it's called. I'm not really sure because I've never been to anything like this. I can't imagine he'll be taking questions but who knows.

Galactic take, Glenn.

Seriously, mucho respect for Mr. Tyson. Loved his work on Cosmos. I even made it a point to watch his show while on vacation a couple years ago. He's awesome.

He seems like a jackass to me, funny how on twitter he has mocked Christians many times but certainly doesn't have the sack to mock Muslims.

Oh well, I was disappointed with this thread...I had some good jokes ready if it was an RIP thread.

1. Insults
2. Angry that he said something about Christians
3. Upset he doesn't talk **** about Muslims
4. Also upset he didn't die so you could make fun of him postmortem.

What the hell is wrong with people and why is everyone so angry and bitter online?

It was a joke Night, if you didn't find it funny cool...but the worst ignorance is to take it seriously. Do I think it is funny that he will mock christians for being anti-science in his opinion, but doesn't dare do so to Islam? yeah...I do think he is kind of a jackass but have on a couple of occasions enjoyed listening to him explain something. I don't wish him death regardless his views...it was a joke Night.

Geez. Remove the stick.

He is a highly intellectual dude. You don’t have to Hope he’s dead.

Read the post above yours...you talk about removing the stick...you and night take silly post seriously...calm down, take a breath.

If he dies though, I'm ready with Mike Tyson trying to say scientific words with his lisp memes...

The guy is too smart for his own understanding. It’s just a matter of time before he has his fauci moment when the asteroid comes and he convinces humanity to all go underground for a couple months

I went last night. Problem is that I’ve watched universe documentaries on YouTube before going to sleep for years and I’ve seen enough Tyson to know his primary topics. So not a lot new in his presentation. But was cool seeing him in person. Definitely different than the rock concerts I usually see at The Palace

Since 4% of the worlds energy comes from wind and solar boondoggles and the rest fossil fuels and unless he has a plan to change those stats, it makes science light years behind the 8 ball.

Neil deGasbag Tyson.....He's a pompous ***. I saw him "interviewing" a pentagon official (maybe weapons development or something) & he kept interrupting replies to his own questions, with completely wrong assumptions/answers.
