A Conversation With Neil deGrasse Tyson

VISIONARIES: Changing the Future One Idea at a Time: Learning to Look Up

“This present-day version of God of the gaps goes by a fresh name: ‘intelligent design.’ The term suggests that some entity, endowed with a mental capacity far greater than the human mind can muster, created or enabled all the things in the physical world that we cannot explain through scientific methods. An interesting hypothesis. But why confine ourselves to things too wondrous or intricate for us to understand, whose existence and attributes we then credit to a superintelligence? Instead, why not tally all those things whose design is so clunky, goofy, impractical, or unworkable that they reflect the absence of intelligence? And what comedian designer configured the region between our legs-an entertainment complex built around a sewage system? Stupid design could fuel a movement unto itself. It may not be nature's default, but it's ubiquitous. Yet people seem to enjoy thinking that our bodies, our minds, and even our universe represent pinnacles of form and reason. Maybe it's a good antidepressant to think so. But it's not science-not now, not in the past, not ever.”

Down to Earth
PBS' Neil deGrasse Tyson is a science guy with a common touch
by MARK McGUIRE
Neil deGrasse Tyson calls science his calling, and traces it back to the Bronx building where he grew up. It was called the Skyview Apartments.
As a 9-year-old, Tyson would go up to the rooftop and gaze up at the night sky. Because of the glow of the city's lights, he was convinced there were only a dozen or so stars in the universe.
When he first saw the thousands of stars projected across the dome of the Hayden Planetarium at Manhattan's Museum of Natural History, Tyson worried that he was the victim of a hoax: "I thought, 'You guys must be kidding me.'
