What are his credentials besides being a meme?
He's also a nigger
>>64396492

Beyond that he wrote a couple papers I think

Neil deGrasse Tyson (/ˈniːəl dəˈɡræs ˈtaJsən/; born October 5, 1958) is an American astrophysicist, cosmologist, author, and science communicator. Since 1996, he has been the Frederick P. Rose Director of the Hayden Planetarium at the Rose Center for Earth and Space in New York City. The center is part of the American Museum of Natural History, where Tyson founded the Department of Astrophysics in 1997 and has been a research associate in the department since 2003.
Born in New York City, Tyson became interested in astronomy at the age of nine after a visit to the Hayden Planetarium. After graduating from the Bronx High School of Science, where he was editor-in-chief of the Physical Science Journal, he completed a bachelor's degree in physics at Harvard University in 1980. After receiving a master's degree in astronomy at the University of Texas at Austin in 1983, he earned his M.Phil. (1989) and Ph.D. (1991) in astrophysics at Columbia University. For the next three years, he was a postdoctoral research associate at Princeton University, and in 1994, he joined the Hayden Planetarium as a staff scientist and the Princeton faculty as a visiting research scientist and lecturer. In 1996, he became director of the planetarium and oversaw its $210-million reconstruction project, which was completed in 2000.

In 1996, he became director of the planetarium and oversaw its $210-million reconstruction project, which was completed in 2000.
>From 1995 to 2005, Tyson wrote monthly essays in the "Universe" column for Natural History magazine, some of which were published in his book Death by Black Hole (2007). During the same period, he wrote a monthly column in Star Date magazine, answering questions about the universe under the pen name "Merlin". Material from the column appeared in his books Merlin's Tour of the Universe (1998) and Just Visiting This Planet (1998). Tyson served on a 2001 government commission on the future of the U.S. aerospace industry, and on the 2004 Moon, Mars and Beyond commission. He was awarded the NASA Distinguished Public Service Medal in the same year. From 2006 to 2011, he hosted the television show NOVA ScienceNow on PBS. Since 2009, he has hosted the weekly podcast Star Talk. In 2014, he hosted the television series Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey, a reboot of Carl Sagan's 1980 series Cosmos: A Personal Voyage.[1] The U.S. National Academy of Sciences awarded Tyson the Public Welfare Medal in 2015 for his "extraordinary role in exciting the public about the wonders of science".[2]

>>64396613

>>64396677
He's gotten a crapload of people interested in science, astronomy and the universe. I have friends I'd have never expected to show any interest in this stuff rave about how much they liked his show. That's pretty terrific news for science bro.
>>64396683

>>64398334
Because in the 80's Reagan gutted the funding for applied mad science.
Without grants for putting human brains into chimp bodies, and making robo-manservants, science is stuck doing boring and faggy things like pharmaceutical research and looking at stars.
Shame really.
>>64396677
Doesn't a PhD, by definition, denote a contribution to the existing body of science?

Tyson couldn't even get his PhD at the university of Texas and could not write it alone either.
He is literally the token black guy of the NASA, he has never written a paper alone, and hasn't released anything remotely scientific in 10 years. He's just doing the NASA's PR and is busy being a living meme.

Reagan funded the shit out of science and engineering for star wars, spy sats, and the creation of the GPS network.
Clinton is the asshole that killed all the science and engineering jobs due to cutting the ever loving shit out of defense spending. Just like Obama shit all over NASA.
The democratic congress under Clinton killed what would have been the largest particle accelerator ever built in Texas, and that project was started during the Reagan era, continued during Bush 1, until the democrats finally killed it under Clinton.
