    Extremely intelligent. He goes from meteorology and physics, to pop culture, to conspiracies, to politics, to civil engineering, to shakespeare, to astrology(horoscopes), to wines, to black culture.
    It's people like Neil that makes the world a better place.

      +Kenny Yee I have always wondered why (at least in my experience) so many individuals are unashamedly ignorant and in many cases are encouraged to stifle their curiosity. Knowledge can lead to becoming someone similar to Neil.

      ComfortBlades Actually the Egyptians were notorious bureaucrats and kept records of most things including very important projects such as the pyramids. These projects were deemed too sacred to use slave labour so the workforce was payed. There are records of strikes etc.Agricultural economies have off seasons where nothing is done and labour is wasted, this is the time which was used to build the pyramids. The "whip" that is seen in the frescos depicting the construction of the great works were in fact timing sticks that created a sound to get everyone moving together so the maximum effort was utilized at once of those shifting the blocks. Most beliefs of the slave labour construction of said monuments arrived after early hollywood films depicting the myth. Most likely this idea originates from the bible which asserts the Israelites were enslaved by an unnamed Pharaoh in the book of exodus however no Egyptian document tells of such an even, they mention military defeats, petty civil conflicts, but no slave uprising. In fact modern archaeologists have found no evidence the Israelites were ever in this area. #longwindedreplies.

      "Contrary to some popular depictions, the pyramid builders WERE NOT SLAVES OR FOREIGNERS. Excavated skeletons show that they were Egyptians who lived in villages developed and overseen by the pharaoh's supervisors. The builders' villages boasted bakers, butchers, brewers, granaries, houses, cemeteries, and probably even some sorts of health-care facilities-there is evidence of laborers surviving crushed or amputated limbs. Bakeries excavated near the Great Pyramids could have produced thousands of loaves of bread every week. Some of the builders were permanent employees of the pharaoh. Others were conscripted for a limited time from local villages. Some may have been women: Although no depictions of women builders have been found, some female skeletons show wear that suggests they labored with heavy stone for long periods of time. Graffiti indicates that at least some of these workers took pride in their work, calling their teams "Friends of Khufu," "Drunkards of Menkaure," and so on-names indicating allegiances to pharaohs. An estimated 20,000 to 30,000 workers built the Pyramids at Giza over 80 years. Much of the work probably happened while the River Nile was flooded. Huge limestone blocks could be floated from quarries right to the base of the Pyramids. The stones would likely then be polished by hand and pushed up ramps to their intended positions. It took more than manual labor, though. Architects achieved an accurate pyramid shape by running ropes from the outer corners up to the planned summit, to make sure the stones were positioned correctly. And priests-astronomers helped choose the pyramids' sites and orientations, so that they would be on the appropriate axis in relation to sacred constellations. From stone pusher to priest, every worker would likely have recognized his or her role in continuing the life-and-death cycle of the pharaohs, and thereby in perpetuating the glory of Egypt."

      Well, because astrophysics, at least in its current incarnation is NOT a science. It is more akin to a religion since its proofs may NOT be independently verified; they invariably rely on "special equipment" that is generally inaccessible to a vast percentage of a nations populous.

    • @d.e.b.b5788
      @d.e.b.b5788 Před 8 lety

      Giles Thompson Hmmm. So, by that rational, all elements are unproven to exist because the average person doesn't know the procedures on how to determine one from another, and would be hopelessly lost trying to perform the experiments required.. Astrophysics is based on observations and calculations. You can't say something isn't a science just because YOU don't understand it. What makes something scientific is use of the scientific method to base things on, instead of just something that sounds like a good idea.

      So although the two met before Tyson entered university.... I don't really see a dead man supporting a live one for any position.... plus the live one would need also to actually have skills in public speaking. Tyson only started publicly speaking about science to the general population around 2000 or so...
      However maybe he's just a good orator? Cos you can appoint anyone you like to any position... but that won't give him the skills to do the job.

    • @chillhomie7

      Mick Wright I just think it was cool how Sagan saw the potential in Neil so early. He gave him a signed copy of Cosmos, He invited him over to his house, and he wrote a letter to him to try and get him to consider going to Cornell university. On top of that its amazing that he ended up becoming the host for the Cosmos reboot. Thats why I said "lowkey", he obviously didn't make him his successor but it was almost as if he did.

    I'm glad to see science getting popular. And it's good to have ambassadors like NDT. He entertaining and he's a person of color. The latter being important. I loved science as a kid and listened to anyone of any race (Carl Sagan is one of my favorites) but i wish i would have had a NDT around when i was younger. Perhaps it would've spurred me more into exploring a career in science.
    I know some think he's just trying to get some shine but I don't have a problem with his "celebrity". We need to get science out to more people and making it entertaining is a great way to do it. As long as the promotion of science and using science to understand our world remains at the forefront.

      People need to embrace knowledge they have to stop confusing science with the attitude and the mainstream attitude that will decide what things are these people are not being scientific whatsoever they are fooling everyone well not everyone they sure don't fool me I love science before that stupid chubby pork chop was born I know a true science isn't it doesn't have anything to do with making assumptions and worshiping theories that haven't been proven just because you can't hand somebody evidence of something credible doesn't mean it's not real and that's a very ignorant attitude and very ignorant position for anybody to hold science is supposed to be finding the answers finding evidence not blatantly ignoring testimony simply because they don't have evidence already who the hell ever heard of science doing that? You're all being fooled by a pseudoscience remember science isn't an attitude and science isn't the soul property of people like this idiot its not his he's not science science is the openness of mind that will investigate things not a closed mind that says we don't believe

    You get one of the smartest guys on the show and ask him if Bigfoot is real? o_o
    And I agree with giving our own species credit for building the pyramids, we were capable on amazing feats back in ancient times, lost (human, not alien) building techniques to create the wonders that still exist today, like the pyramid of Giza or the Mayan pyramids.
    Not sure why Heather B asked him about wine? 😐

      Because it's a pop culture show and all day every day all any one ever wants to do is ask this man science and space questions (like Sway) so it's fun and refreshing to ask him what his favorite booze is and about something dumb like Bigfoot for once. But only an unpretentious mind would appreciate that.

      +G Ro no, some people are just too serious to find foolishness entertaining. it has nothing to do with high mindedness

      +Ashton Smith I can assure you only a high-minded individual would tune into "sway in the morning" and be offended or off-put by non-serious banter

    • @Nebuchadnezzar31
      @Nebuchadnezzar31 Před 7 lety +2

      No I'm not too serious, pretentious or high minded, I've got a good sense of humour.
      And I get it, Sway's show is entertainment, not science.
      But it's kind of like inviting Einstein on the show and asking him about when he worked at a patent office.
