We need to protect chuck at all cost. Always appreciated the authenticity of Chuck on this show. Many times Comics were on the show and might be funny but don’t understand and cut the speaker off to add a joke. Chuck is naturally funny and hard working and he genuinely is interesting what Niel says and try’s like us audience to understand what the speaker is saying . Chuck , you won’t see this but want you to know how much you make the show and you’re a true gentleman ! Thank you sir

just a safety tip for neil's great example with the onion in case you want to show someone in the future, make sure you cut it on a more stable surface than your own legs! 🤣
Thank you, Neil. We all love you from the Philippines and around the globe, beautiful and effective teaching and no matter how you cut it. It’s still an onion.
Hello Neil, love literally everything that you do! You are a credit to humanity! Just one question, why is our Moon the only moon which does not have a name, other than, The Moon….?
To avoid the ear inducing action of cutting the onion, you can put it in the freezer for 10-15 minutes. This way the fluid that causes the tears will freeze and you won't cry.
Whenever I hear the name of René Descartes, I think of Monty pythons philosopher song, the line is, René Descartes was a drunken fart, I drink therefore I am.
The mathematical study of change that’s calculus on its most simple understanding but if you break it down to that simple understanding it becomes so much easier to do.
I have thought more than once what our society would have been like when they invented TV, radio, and had folks like you teaching others over the air waves instead of trying to make money. the advertising Nonsense in what not. How far along we would be now. Thanks guys I enjoyed getting another video.
actually all the midpoints of the cuts of the onion should go through the center, so the blade is not moved sideways after the cut but rotated around a few degrees. seems more logical and yields nicer pieces!
You can reduce eye irritation from the gas coming from the onion by cutting the onion with your tongue out (the gas lands on of your saliva and not the moisture in your eye). Also, washing your hands with a bit of sugar gets rid of the onion smell from your hands.
To the folks commenting on the type of knife, consider we are discussing Descartes, also. Saying something is a bread knife would also require the knife to *know* it is a bread knife, yes? And why has there not been a layered potato developed? A Potonion. Rapid hash-browns.
Thanks so much for this video. I promise I've always used that logic when cutting my onions. I thought I was the only weirdo in the planet doing it this way.
I've gotta know, do you "write" these explanations yourself? Either way, you're brilliant, but I'm just curious. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and helping to enlighten our dimly lit species.
If you breath through your mouth and block the airway of your nose, a swimming nose clip or something else that blocks then you will not get teary. I was mind-blown when I tried it after I was told by a friend who is a chef, it worked!
What if Galilean Transformations still apply to a light on top of a train, where you add the speed of the train to the speed of light? What if it was just not measurable previously?
I have recently read that if you put a few bald up wet paper towels, your eyes will water less since that chemical is attracted to moisture and our eyes are of heavy water content. If I got what I read right
With the utmost respect, it takes a very special individual to geek/nerd out over onions!! Great video of course, but I actually thought he’d go a slightly different direction with this. Not too long ago I learned from a very French chef than to dice an onion, you only need to cut it twice instead of the customary thrice-diced technique. Those mathematically literate can better break it down in the way Dr. Tyson did - traditionally, after bisecting the onion (through its poles) and placing it flat-side down, initial cuts are made along that axis. From there, several perpendicular cuts are made before the third and final cut resulting in the “perfect dice”. In actuality those horizontal cuts, which can actually be incredibly dangerous, are actually completely unnecessary for the reasons Dr. Tyson just highlighted.
We need a video where you tech Chuck (and us) how to do Calculus! Also, you gotta do some sort of knowledge test for Chuck (and us), and oficially gave him a Star Talk diploma if he passes (I’m actually impressed how much chuck learned, reminds me of Jesse Pinkman 😆)
Professor Tyson, I have questions about gravity, but I have a belief about it as well. I believe that gravity is not a force but a side effect of mass and spin rate. I also believe that quantum gravity is affected by quantum entanglement. I believe that we should talk via email. Thank you very much. Think about it. I believe that I am 96% right on this.
hey is that the same onion you dropped on the floor 4 weeks ago??!! (why objects of different mass fall at the same rate). ya were keeping up with your onion fascination man!

Keep Looking Up! (and away from the onions 😭) 😂
This is ironically like an Onion video. Are we going to learn how towels work next?
Onions are spirals not circles, how does the golden ratio apply to this, not equal cubes? and leftovers?
Awesome and interesting...but now I have a craving for fried potatoes and caramelized onions...Mmmmmm
I prefer t look down, cry, and keep my fingers unharmed.
They have to name a galaxy after Allium.
SIR, you are cutting an onion with a bread knife. The chefs of the world need a word with you.....

Only a scientist could cut an onion with a bread knife and look smart doing it.
That's true, is just a shame they couldn't find a scientist to do the cutting, Kneel In The Grass is a poor substitute though.

Hi Neil and chuck!! Thank you so much for your videos and educational!! You guys make star talk really awesome!!❤❤❤👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👊🏿
This was a very layered explainer it brought a tear to my eye....

You never fail to teach things in a way that is palatable for us common folks! Lol thank you sir!!
"With a dose of Math." 😂 I just love these guys!

Whenever I hear the name of René Descartes, I think of Monty pythons philosopher song, the line is, René Descartes was a drunken fart, I drink therefore I am.
I've never had that thought when cutting onions. Now I'll never see it any different. That was a neat little thing to tickle the brain.
Looking the bread knife for cutting an onion makes me anxious, couldn't stop staring at it 😂😂😂😂😂
Wow.. now I will always enjoy cutting onions as a science activity 😂. This was super cool , every day physics.. awesome !!!
The mathematical study of change that’s calculus on its most simple understanding but if you break it down to that simple understanding it becomes so much easier to do.

.....Thanks for another fun explainer 😊
This is amazing. This is why I watch StarTalk 😂
This was great. I kept expecting a walk on of some NYC famous chef to give you some flak about how to cut an onion.
Such a geek i love it. Thanks Neil i miss our talks feom.the 90s
I came for the science but stayed for these two hilarious dudes! 🤗
Best example of Lobachevskian geometry.
The bread lives to another day. However as always, I learn something new. Great vid

It has the teslarat cube in the fourth in it and all platonic solids

Thanks so much for this video. I promise I've always used that logic when cutting my onions. I thought I was the only weirdo in the planet doing it this way.
"Chuck, come to office we have work"
"What work?"
"I want to cut onions"
keep looking up and keep those fingers tucked inn when cutting veggies Doc T... was scared for your fingers
Chefs watching this be adding physicist to their resume...
Can you discuss calculus & how can someone like Newton even invent this? I mean it’s super hard to do as it is.
You guys are silly! Informative none the less! Lol! 🤣🤣

What if Galilean Transformations still apply to a light on top of a train, where you add the speed of the train to the speed of light? What if it was just not measurable previously?
This was fun and interesting. My main thought when cutting an onion is to try not to cry but it still gets me most of the time 😭
The fact that know-it-all Neil is cutting onions with a bread knife, in his lap no less, is just hilarious to me.
Didnt know this was a cooking channel.
Lol the onion magically appears after the “HOWEVER” 😂

Just a point. If you leave the root on the onion, it makes it much easier to dice.
My man brought a bread knife to an onion cutting lecture.
And thus, I've learned where the term "cartographer" originated.
Didn't you mean 'Cartearsian' coordinates? Yes, and that would explain the weeping chefs around the universe over the bread knife faux pas....
