Neil deGrasse Tyson

Awhile back a video circulated of Neil deGrasse Tyson explaining how we as a nation stopped caring about space travel once the Cold War ended.

In this chapter, deGrasse Tyson explains to us how space travel unites the world as a single people, detailing the myriad of international aid organizations that were founded shortly after the first moon landing in 1969. Now if all that took place after a moon landing, think what we could accomplish as a species if we ever land on Mars.

If Neil deGrasse Tyson says that teddy bears can walk and talk and make crude jokes, then it must be true!
