There are not many famous, scholarly, witty, clever and verbally adroit BLACK astronomers and space exploration advocates!
That is what makes, in all of his aspects, Neil Degrasse Tyson, should a treasure. It is he, based on the discovery of a second moon around Pluto. suggested a whole new category of planets, The Dwarf Planet. NASA uses him as a highly involved consult on all of their planetary probes.
My Favorite quality of Dr. Tyson is that he is prone to ask, " What should we have been aware of that we missed ?" and " Was their evidence , at that time, that there was a much better and far more effective way of doing what we we did?"
That kind of thinking excites me. If we can learn to treat all areas of life as Dr. Tyson does how much better might all of our lives be?
