+Misaka Mikoto I respectfully disagree. It's people with anime and or porn avatars in youtube comments.
+Misaka Mikoto My RUclips idol watches StarTalk? Holy space balls.
There's gonna be a second season of Cosmos?!? AHHHH YEAAA😀😀😀
+Bloody heart15 Im glad somebody brought it up...I watched Universe just because of Neil and was so happy he hosted Cosmos.. please bring a season 2!!!
Derek Kunze Yep. It's been over a year since the first season Aired (right?). I don't really know why they were hush hush about this.
***** ya been over a year...maybe the ratings weren't strong enough (it was on Fox afterall). Show was brilliant and well done.. curious to look into it more since by the video Neil looked as tho hes been trying
Yep
Cosmos was one of the few times I could watch something with genuine excitement. Here was a series that was graphically wonderful with compelling and well presented dialogue which helped me broaden my understanding of the universe. It gave me a visual library of data I could associate with concepts or theories I had learned. With them I could further develop my own understanding or in turn tech those around me; even if it came down to "Go watch Cosmos!".
Knowing there may end up being a second series gave me a smile. I'll keep my fingers crossed. :)
+Yuki Fox it always made me feel stupid. i loved it, but i felt like an idiot.
+Jormungandr The World Serpent Nothing wrong with that; just think of it as a challenge. Find out what parts you don't understand and try to find out information or courses on that material; there is so much information online. However if that doesn't work - coming to places like here and asking for help on understanding stuff is bound to go over well.
So long as you have shown you've tried to learn but just cannot understand X people will be more than willing to try and explain it to you or at least point you in the direction of something/someone who can help.
Not understanding or knowing something has driven human discovery since we were living in caves. It is okay to feel dumb. There is no shame in incomprehension. So long as you work to resolve your lack of understanding.
After-all; I have always said - every day I learn something; be it from ignorance, my own or others mistakes is a good day. :)
I hope they make another season too
Two of my favourite people. Thank you from South Africa.
Agree with Bill, Cosmos was one of the greatest TV show
I watch Cosmos over and over, its so great.
Love you both! You're both changing the world in amazing ways.
Shit, I'm out of toilet paper. Can you spare some bark??
Please, please try and make another season of Cosmos happen. I learned so much from that show and I make all my friends and colleagues watch it because it is just so informative and fun to watch!! You and Bill Nye are the voices of science for my generation and we need more shows with you guys!
This was really good. I really liked this behind the scenes and candid interaction.
Bill is right we need a season two of cosmos. Come on Neil!
oooh cannot wait for this episode of startalk
I agree with Bill Maher. pls pls pls make another season of cosmos...the world needs more of that
Two of my absolute favorite people on earth. thanks for everything guys.
Dangit, I was planning to move to Mars until I learned there were no restaurants.
the cosmos series is my boys Sunday school please put out another season!
OH MY GOSH MORE COSMOS YESYESYES!!!!!
Yes! More Cosmos! I've watched it 3 times now. It really puts the cosmos in perspective for me. I would love more TV like that.
YES! season 2 cmon do it!
Yup. Cosmos Season 2 :). I tell everyone I see "You should see the Cosmos Series" with Carl Sagan and Neil DeGrasse Tyson. Plenty to watch!
Yes please, more Cosmos!
Please, I need another season of Cosmos! It really was one of the best shows to ever grace discovery science. Couldn't watch it enough times.
YESSSS ANOTHER SEASON!! Id be soo happy with another season!
i remember waiting in anticipation for the next episode of cosmos and sitting nervously when i check the time and realise there was only a few minutes left on the episode, and id usually watch it twice before the next episode came out
I love it!!
Yes, I wanted to see what happen after Real Time!!! 😃👏🏼
But people would rather pray....
no they wouldn't. people don't wanna do anything. nobody wants to think that they might go to he'll. we're all lazy assholes.
+Desmond Bear Except for atheists that take altruism into their own hands.
Cosmos please please please!!!
YEAAAA, a possibility for a second COSMOS!!!:D
We need another season of Cosmos, thank you Bill Maher.
In addition to Cosmos, I wish they would create a new "Connections" series, as that was a phenomenal series from the 90s that really explored the interconnectedness of inventions and ideas throughout history. One of my all time favorite educational series along with Cosmos!
2nd season of COSMOS!!! #HYPEHYPEHYPEHYPEHYPEHYPEHYPEHYPEHYPEHYPEHYPEHYPEHYPEHYPE
The idea that we could control where and how much it rains disturbs me somewhat. I dont think it would be long before Governments would have to pay for rainfall over certain areas of a country and areas with less rainfall would become deprived and effectively made and considered to be poorer than areas with a more vast amount of rainfall.
interesting thought. but isn't that what people would have said about other things we currently enjoy a hundred years ago?
+Desmond Bear And isn't it exactly how it happened as well? Running water in every house? We have that here in the western world, which is considered a rich area of the world. Venture far enough south and you'll find that it's not a standard.
Just one example.
This should be a on a main network or at least PBS, Thank you Neil
Second season of Cosmos! ASAP please!
cosmos is such a good show i watched it like 4 times XD
2nd season of COSMOS I'll be waiting on my couch until it comes out
+1 for cosmos season 2!!!
Thanks Neil for everything
We need more Cosmos!
please make another seasons of cosmos
I agree with Bill about a new season of Cosmos!
+1 on the next season of Cosmos!!!!
At 3:29 someone breaks wind! LOL
YES SEASON FUCKING TWUUUUUUUU!!!!!!
Plz more cosmos
maaaan the new Cosmos was so cool, i wanna see more, and make it work with oculus rift, imagine seeing all those cool effects around you :D
+TheGeckoNinja Call me an asshole but I say that's never gonna happen. You'd have to film literally every angle of the set for that to work and that's not just incredibly costly but also highly impractical for editing.
Damn, can't get it to load.
i love neil, id live to sit down with him and have coffee and just talk about life and space for hours
I watched three shows on Netflix breaking bad house of cards and the cosmos I have to say it was one of my favorites
Space Jam vest. Lol
I see too many people who are under the impression there is a season 2 of Cosmos coming out based on the clip.
This was Neil's way of simply brushing it off in this. He wasn't actually saying there was going to be another one.
There has been no renewal for a season 2 yet, so no one knows. Not even Neil. He said they should know within a month whether or not it's going to be renewed.
I just saw the movie "Everest" and how they all died from a little wind and snow.... imagine being on the moon in an ion storm.
I love me some Neil!
Tap the energy from a volcano? Geoengineering would be a good book for Neil to write about (and make a profit from), but it would need to be written for an average person. It reminds me of the topic of vertical farms, which was written about by Dr. Dickson Despommier.
MY GOD THIS CONVERSATION IS THE SORT OF THING THAT COULD REALLY SAVE THE WORLD.
The new Cosmos was good but....(yes there's a but)....there was way too much flash animation talking about those historical figures. I get that live acting to represent historical figures has been done to death in documentaries but the flash animation was often quite uninteresting compared to the beauty and wonder of the rest of the show. I think this was the one glaring flaw of the new Cosmos. Perhaps shorten those segments or break them up more or something.
they seem like bff
They have to be high. lol
This must be in a the "green" room after the festivities.
HE"S WORKING ON GETTING ANOTHER SEASON OF COSMOS!!!!
FUCK YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Neil I remember you said that you accept death in one of your interviews with Larry King, and you stated that it wouldn't matter because we didn't care about living before when we were not alive. I admire you like no other man, but here's my catch okay life is like one if those things you get and then can not give up. When I get older I am serious about trying to figure out how to preserve the human body to make it ageless. So technically we wont die, And if we are careful we could live long long long time. I'm starting to learn what it takes to do this. I just- Its hard to explain how much I appreciate being alive and hoping this never ends because somewhere Deep down I know I'm never going to get it back. You are an inspiration keep motivating man!
Very true
if you do that people will get bord of life and you will too
Raihana Zemouchi You can't get bored of life. There is so much to experience, there is so much to see in this universe of ours. Maybe we even gain the ability to go to different universes in the very very distant future. Maybe we do find out the answer to the question "Why are we here?"
Many people die of old age and wish they could be young again and experience the world of a new time as if they hadn't aged a day. I want to live forever, until time itself has stopped.
The Vicatorian I could not agree more. You cannot simply get bored of life. There is so much to do and learn already, despite the fact that new ideas and experiences are always being made. New technology, extraordinary technology, is being made everyday, and i would love to be apart of making it, and seeing what else has been made. There are never of things you can run out to do and accomplish. When I wake up in the morning and take my first breath and move around in my comforters looking forward to a new day... Well.... I could not imagine that no longer being the case. Never being on this lovely world again sounds nightmarish. Its weird because so many people have over looked or accepted death and I know its possible to overcome this. Infact I Know its already possible, some animals are already ageless we just need to figure out how we can be to.
Raihana Zemouchi You make me laugh. I don't even know what you are trying say, or what you want me to learn. I know ill die anyways from time but id like to extend that life for as long as I can. Im not talking about being immortal. As for the "forces of nature" we have plenty of time to deal with that, hell it has already been confirmed that were sending people to mars. I'm not saying we will be able to overcome these "obstacles", but I don't doubt our ingenuity. As for life and how it goes, believe me, I know it can be sad and hopeless, but its part of the package man. Besides who are you to tell me I will get bored? Does that mean I should kill myself if I do? I don't know about you, but even being bored is a miracle so as long as I'm alive.
Neil = legend.
does the hydran collider concern you?
Honestly, I loved Cosmos. However, I think that show should be a something that happens every generation. I like the thirty year gap and change in host to the new best science communicator.
fuck yeah
Geoengineering is exactly the field I want to go into. I agree, Tyson. There are places in the Middle East where the land hasn't recovered from over irrigation thousands of years ago, so I've been told.
Is it Richard Dawkins filming? Can't make out who is holding the camera in the picture behind Bill.
Neil looks at the camera more than David Brent.
HIIIIISSSSSSSSSSSS
There IS water on Mars, Neil!
Mind blown at controlling the earth concept
Neil for president!
Thorium molten salt reactors...
does any one think than bill maher look like Pagan Min from Far Cry 4
those two need get a room...maybe invite Richard Dawkins and make it a three-some. lol.
Neil should run for president
I sure hope there will be a season 2 of cosmos. I'm so sick of the programming on the supposed sci. channels. It's mostly sci-fi, paranormal and pseudoscience promoting ghosts, UFO's, Bigfoot, and creationism. I don't want to be just entertained, some people actually like to learn new things. I'm sure a channel dedicated to just astronomy/cosmology/physics without the BS, would do well in the ratings.

Yeah please do another cosmos. my 6 and 8 year old kids loved it!!!
Also tone down the anti religion shit please, just keep the science clean as opposed to something "opposite to religion"
Hey Neil, you should have smacked Bill for being an anti-vaxxer.
He is not anti-vaxxer. He just said that maybe we should be careful so big pharmaceutical companies don't use their power to give us vaccines we don't need.
ShowALeitao
He is an anti-vaxxer in the same way intelligent design proponents are creationists. Several times on his show, he has repeated or had a guest repeat the "too many, too soon" montora that several of the republican presidential candidates have said later.
www.sciencebasedmedicine.org/five-years-on-bill-maher-is-still-an-antivaccine-crank-and-proves-it-yet-again/
I know the environment is different but in Portugal we take around 17 shots until the age of 5. In the US it's about 27. In Portugal health care is "for free" so you don't pay for the vaccines except if you want to get a special one like the flu vaccine. Every year they tell everyone the flu that year it's stronger so it's better for everyone to get the vaccinated (In reality only small kids, people with breathing problems and elders "should" get it). Guess what? Only a small minority gets it, those are the ones getting the flu and no one dies of it.
I'm not saying that we should be against vaccination (in my whole life I've never met an anti-vaxxer here in Europe. I never met a climate change denier also xD).
I'm just saying that we should be critic about it and be sure that we are not being harmed for the sake of profit.
Sorry for bad English.
ShowALeitao
I find it hilarious that you state you have never met an anti-vaxxer when you are parroting many of the paranoid talking points the “too many, too soon” crowd regularly makes. Thus, if you want to meet one, look in the mirror.
"I know the environment is different but in Portugal we take around 17 shots until the age of 5. In the US it's about 27."
Accepting your numbers for the sake of argument, what is your point? Do you know the reasons why so many have to be given? Are you familiar with the protocols that go into administering vaccines? Are you just scared of large numbers?
"Every year they tell everyone the flu that year it's stronger so it's better for everyone to get the vaccinated (In reality only small kids, people with breathing problems and elders "should" get it)."
In correct. Everyone should get flu vaccines every year. This helps establish herd immunity (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herd_immunity ).
"Guess what? Only a small minority gets it, those are the ones getting the flu and no one dies of it."
Your ignorance of how many people die each year from the flu is heartbreaking (www.health.harvard.edu/diseases-and-conditions/10-flu-myths myth #4). In addition, I would like to see your citation for your claim that the only people getting the flu are the people being vaccinated.
"I'm just saying that we should be critic about it and be sure that we are not being harmed for the sake of profit."
Are you seriously unaware of how little of a profit vaccines make (www.skepticalraptor.com/skepticalraptorblog.php/big-pharma-supports-antivaccine-movement-conspirac-vaccines-maybe-not/ )? Honestly, if big pharmacy wanted to make money off us, there are far better ways (www.nytimes.com/2015/09/21/business/a-huge-overnight-increase-in-a-drugs-price-raises-protests.html?_r=0 ). Keep an open eye, because shit like this can happen.
"Sorry for bad English."
Your English is fantastic.
I think Neil is correct in that we need to make a serious attempt at fixing earth because climate change is an eminent threat. However, galactic travel is important in the long run. I know we are a long way off, and that's why we should focus on what he's saying. Still, before it's too late and we physically CAN'T save the earth, we need to spread out and avoid more problems. What's the harm in that? The problem with humanity is that we have a very limited vision of the future. We only are concerned about what's to come in ten years or so, and avoid what might be dangerous ahead - hundreds, thousands of years (until it's too late, just like it is with climate change). It's all about our species' survival, right? In that case, it might be for the political, economical, and evolutionary better to spread and try to terraform/live other places. Once again, it doesn't have to be in the next one hundred years, but I think it's something that should be looked in to.
I would move to mars right now cause "I don't want to live on this planet anymore."
its very interesting that n d tysons idea of tapping the energy of a volcano is similar to Manoj Bhargava's idea - using graphine strings to tap the energy from the earths core. I think Manoj and Neil should work tothether ruclips.net/video/YY7f1t9y9a0/видео.html
I love how De Grasse loves to talk about how conservatives are anti science but never talk about vaccines with Maher.
You couldn't invite him in to your dressing room ..... Bills eyes look small before he hits the coke .
Neil has no idea of the kind of forces that he claims to be able to control. Try harnessing the Gulf Stream. That's more than enough usable power there.
+Jungle Jargon He's an Astrophysicist, not a Oceanographer/Geologist/Meteorologist/Engineer. He gets things inaccurate or wrong often, but he never claims to be an expert on those subjects. He is more knowledgeable and is more in touch with Science news than the average person, but he's not infallible. He's kind of a jack-of-all-trades because he has to be in order to communicate with the public.
+Jungle Jargon You do realize that you are basing your position on the technologies and posibilities we have right now. In the future, it could be possible.
The point was if we can harness the forces of nature and manipulate them we wouldn't need to search for other places to settle.
Learning Freemasons science
Stop kissing his ass...he likes you. :) Great stuff. I met Carl Sagan at Druyan's when I was young. Remember Sagan being on his own planet. ;) He had trouble relating in social situations. That's good....Brilliant man. Keep up the good contributions to the planet.
There's no way to know, but it sure looks like they just finished smoking some weed ;-)
Colnization of mars or another planetary system is critical for survival and the sooner the better. As for geo engineering, traveling to other planets will incentive this aspect as we will pretty much be "forced" to control nature. Don't agree with Dr. Tyson that planetary colonization is not the next step.
+Frank Sang I think what is he is really saying is that we have needs here that are critical to having enough time as a species to get to the technological point that colonization is possible elsewhere other then maybe a research trip.
I think Bush was right that we should go out and possibly colonize Mars. Think what it would mean on the long run!
Life has to expand and find new territories. Just imagine our ancestors had the same lazy attitude as many people today. We would be still fish living in the ocean.

Cosmos will not return to Fox, because of the angry science haters (creationists).
funny how bill maher advocates for the importance of science, but yet he is against vaccination...
+holycow343 Proof?
+holycow343 ? no he isnt
Filthy Frankt Fan look up Bill Maher on vaccination on youtube and click on the first video, for some reason every time I provided that link it gets taken down
HISSSSSS ,the reptilian brotherhood is here!HISSSSSS
Oh gosh Neil I like what you do, but I cannot disagree with you more on this bit. Geo-engineering is not THE answer. It may be an answer, but not always. Please, look at California at present as exhibit A. Building dams was geoengineering. It was a great idea, keep water in a watershed because California gets all of its precip in the winter, and practically none in the summer, when crops need it. So California and the rest of the west built damns. TONS of dams. What's the problem with that?
Turns out, a great deal. Dams block off migration patterns of anadromous fish (fish that hatch in freshwater, grow up in salt, and then return to fresh to spawn and die). Many types of Pacific salmon are struggling, the amount of places they can spawn has been significantly reduced. And where they can still make it to spawn? Well the water in those dams is being used for something, agriculture. Farmers water pasture or fields, the water takes up nutrients and/or animal waste and makes the water hotter, and that which does not get taken up by the plants, goes back into the rivers and streams. Suddenly, your fish aren't spawning because if it is higher than 20C, they start not doing well, higher than 25C and the fry (baby fish) just die. This is bad for humans - fish stocks go down, this is bad for animals, already other animals that rely on these fish are struggling, and bad for ecosystems in general. Bears used to eat salmon that could get so prolific during spawning season. They'd then leave scat far away from where they ate it, bringing nutrients to the soils. Bears are down and salmon are down, which means a general trend towards nutrient depletion.
Another example. I'm sure you heard of wildfire in the west. Its becoming a bigger and bigger topic, but truth be told, it has always been an issue! California and several other west coast states have a fire-adapted and fire-dependent ecosystem. Biomass is generated at a faster rate than it can decay, as this is a dry climate, but not a dead one. Here, fire played the role of clearing up that biomass excess, with low-intensity fires that burned on average of 7 - 15 years. This is in direct contrast towards the ecosystems of say, New York state, where fire intervals are naturally, more like 100 - 500 years.
But here is the geoengineering part. Following WWII, with a lot of machinery coming home and not much else to do with it, we started putting them to work suppressing fires. Suppressing every fire, no matter how big, or how small. Sounds like a good idea, right? Homeowners, farmers, ranchers got to breathe a sign of relief, their properties were safe. And the annual smokey summers that pioneers wrote about when they first arrived were a thing of the past. We geoengineered the ecosystem to meet our needs. Look at a cookie cut of an old tree - I'm sure you understand tree rings. Pre 1950, you'll see evidence of regular fire scars. Post 1950 - nothing. So what's the problem? Welp, turns out if you don't have fire playing that role of reducing biomass, it builds up - we got really good at Smokey the Bear and stopping fire. Now we are at levels that are unprecedented. All the logging in the world won't fix it either, since a lot of the biomass is unusable as timber. And this is a problem, how? Now, when we do get a fire, its not a low intensity burn that snakes around killing smaller, weaker trees, while letting the stronger ones thrive, nutrients get recycled, and water being conserved. Often, they are infernos that sterilize soils, obliterate habitats and kill stands of trees so completely that it will not recover in a hundred years. Invasive, or pioneering species that are designed to burn take over stands of trees that were once rich with diversity, economic and ecological value.
I have a lot of respect for you NDT, but please, as a fellow science educator (although in natural resources), I am begging you to sit down and speak with some on the ground ecologists, botanists and biologists about specific geoegineering ideas and see their response. Mess with ecosystems, and there will be far more unintended consequences than that which you do in the lab.. Which isn't to say we shouldn't mess with ecosystems, we are part of the ecosystem, but we must do so with great care, which cannot be done without recognizing local conditions, continued modeling and monitoring, and locally specific solutions. We can't implement vast technologies on a global basis and pat ourselves on the back that problems have been solved. We have t get out of this cycle of today's solutions to inconveniences being tomorrow's dire problems.
DESALINATION.
