“I would rather have questions that can't be answered than answers that can't be questioned.”
- Richard Feynman
Now Americans have both!
👍
Can someone give me an answer that can't be questioned??
It’s called a statement
"From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand." Matthew 4:17
"Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth: But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also." Matthew 5:38-39
"And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly." Matthew 6:5-6.
Knowing that you don't know is the beginning of discovery.
The have not reached their prime yet
"Discovery is what you're doing when you don't know what you're doing."
Dr. Tyson is very quotable.
And then here are those that think they know everything

@Σά ββας yeah i believe there is a creator so called god bcs there is no way something exist without it but all modern religion are not representation of what the creator is..
Earth's religion was just describing only planet earth as whole world and rest are myth and fantasy
Nice to hear the shout out to engineers. Usually we only get blamed when things don't work as designed. Thank you Neil!
@@user-in8mz8wk4z What kinda nonsense are you goin on about? Before "secular science" was the dark ages. If you don't like "secular science" you better get off the computer, internet, give up your cell phone, automobile, and electricity to your home. Before "secular science" you would have been living in a hut or a cave imagining evil spirits in the shadows on the wall.
Just say "god did it." See how easy that is... 😶
But then the host quickly changed the subject, that shows how society views engineers….
Engineers and the people who observe that data already know why the redshift model is wrong. It is theoretical physics who want endless funding and try to defibrillate the Einstein model, and fudge the data, that are the problem.
@@JoeDeglman Oh please....
There's nothing wrong with not knowing, but there is something wrong when scientists stop trying to search for answers. There's nothing more depressing than when a scientist loses their curiosity to try or be curious.
Very good answers from Neil. Not having control means fear in many human situations, in science that's what people are looking for in order to expand control.
I absolutely love Neil. My favorite nerd.
Carl Sagan and Neil deGrasse Tyson have done wonders for fans of science and logic, simply by embracing TV and news shows. Tyson even moreso with his presence on the misc soc-media platforms. Their charismatic way of breaking down complicated concepts into understandable bites of knowledge - THANK YOU SIR!
deGrasse Tyson is part of the problem. Trying to defibrillate the failed Big Bang and Einstein models are part of the problem.
I love this guy’s honest no BS answers 😎
''I DON'T KNOW''. that's what i like about science. it is honest. it admits what it doesn't know and works on the plausible answers. Science is always open for refinement. that's its beauty and we should embrace it.
How many politicians do you hear saying they don’t know something? 🤪
I love that Neil recognized the engineers as well!
Yes! So many people behind the scenes designing and building the instruments!
He's a clown who couldn't deliver one coherent answer about space and never has. If there's telescopes in space, millions of miles away, why do we only get fake CGI, photoshopped globe pics from NASA? Explain that to me Neil, please? He is just shouting out other liars and fakery his masters want him to try and blab about on TV. I love his giggling, fidgeting and touching his ear constantly too, straight-up signs of a liar or someone who is behig dishonest.
Really what about drivers that drove those huge machines from one place to another
The universe is deadly and beautiful all at the same time.
As is life.
ruclips.net/video/cULwlnEok1c/видео.html
just like life
This just seem appropriate ruclips.net/video/0EKxl1x2ad8/видео.html (Especially when it gets to the part about Ee-Arth)
It just is
Neil is an inspiration
He said a part of not knowing is how we live,
> the part of not knowing is how we die
No one is more knowledgable than science dudes, but they are the ones who have no problem saying ‘ I don’t know’. I wish everyone else could learn this from scientists.
No truer words were ever said.
Shout out to the architect
☀️
Neil is the best. Folks always want firm answers, but life just doesn't work that way. We don't know what we don't know - that's the point - get comfortable with that. JWST is doing exactly what it was designed to do, which is absolutely brilliant.
You cannot watch this guy without ending up with a huge smile on your face.
What we "know" and "don't know" is always changing.
lol! I adore Neil! He's such a great science communicator. Nothing wrong with not knowing something. Exploring that is how we learn! :D
No, he's not. He's a moron who knows nothing and always acts like this. A guy off the street could have delivered the same amount of BS and it was hilarious how Don Lemon was mocking his lack of knowledge!
Notice how he kept fiddling with his shaky fingers and touching his ear? Dead giveaway sign of a liar.
@@8bitakvids Are you a guy off the street that can show more knowledge than NDT? Even if what you say is just BS? C'mon. Let your actions speak louder than just flapping your hands on a keyboard. :P
@@8bitakvidsHe was clearly adjusting his earpiece...so clearly you're the liar here.
@Infamous Grizzly Aww how cute. You're one of those flerfs.
Replenishing our understanding of how the universe came to be, its not that our old ideas have no value, they are the building blocks to how we can be able to figure out the answers to the most difficult questions we have today.
Did anyone else notice that Joel Leja was quoted twice, and after his name on the first quote at 2:35 he's listed as Asst Prof of Astronomy and ASTROLOGY; his second quote (a few seconds later) says Asst Prof of Astronomy and Astrophysics. Pretty interesting, yes? I wonder if anyone at CNN noticed (other than the person responsible).
Captain Picard: "That's hardly a scientific observation, Commander."
Data: "Captain, the most elementary and valuable statement in science... The beginning of wisdom is: I do not know. I do not know what that is, sir."
I love Neil! This is what science is all about. Answering questions finding things we don't know and have to figure out. I'd much rather explore and discover then know everything.
Journalists shocked at the thought of admitting not knowing something
There’s no progression without a little craziness in the mind
6:04 as soon as he said it I knew Neal was gonna take issue with it and correct him.
Not Knowing is the path to Knowing 🧐🤔
Knowing that you don’t know is the path to knowing
@@ecurewitz I Knew, yet did not know that.
Well... I gotta say I follow Startalk, I think it's a great channel to following
The way both Neil and Chuck bring up to the podcast several subjects to discussing is fantastic
“The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing.”
-Socrates
I don't know, is the best answer ever offered. Thank you Dr. Neil Degrasse Tyson for educating people the way only you can do.
Man Neil is awesome. He is our prized possession, love how he can simplify astrophysics so a basic audience can Understand
"Not knowing" is a good place to start🤯
I love science and the discovery of the mystery of the Cosmos. I find this exciting and continually changing and want to know more.
Space is a lie. We never went to the moon. If we did, why does NASA admit they can't get back there because they "Lost the technology and it would be painful to build it back up"? Neil is a NASA puppet, spewing lies and make believe BS as they steal BILLIONS from taxpayers..... Wake up.
What I like about Neil is that he always gives a straight answer. He's cool and confident even as he admits to not knowing everything.
A great day for science! Great engineering!
"Thanks to the telescope and the microscope, religion no longer offers an explanation for anything important."
Christopher Hitchens
True that.
Ignorant statement.
I miss Hitchens
@@cyrusthegreat7472 can you show me on the doll where Jesus touched you?
@Infamous Grizzly How near? We have been hearing that for over 2000 years and nothing has happened. The prophecies have failed over and over again
I saw Neil yesterday here in Cleveland. He was phenomenal!
If that's your idea of phenomenal, a bumbling fool who giggles, stutters, fidgets with his shaky hands and keeps touching his ear saying "I DON'T KNOW!" about every serious question, you must be very easy to amuse....
@@8bitakvids oh boy internet tough guy alert.
@@8bitakvidsHe was adjusting his earpiece. Be gone, Troll.
@@8bitakvids Oh cry about it
Love the shout out tto the engineer
Totally made my day. More like this. NDT is like the Andy Rooney of space. He can be serious if needed but we don't need that from everyone.
Andy Rooney??? There's a very weird and very random comparison.
Are you high? This man knows nothing and never gives a clear explanation of space to anyone. We have some amazing telescope a million miles from Earth? Explain to me then why we don't have ONE SINGLE photo or video of the globe from space, they are all (admitted to be by NASA) composites and CGI, strung together in Photoshop and made into a 3D globe using computers......... Neil has literally turned down every interview regarding this stuff. He's a JOKE
Im going to tell my professor this when final exams come around
There’s a difference , what you are learning are called objective truths . Good Try Bud
@@buddhistjustbud shut up Diana
Loved that veiled star trek reference
Im so grateful that NDT has given scientist a new face and a new way of perceiving them. A more human, normal and approachable way.
The problem is not WANTING to know.
The more you know the less you know. So when someone tells you they have all the answers, run.
Or laugh, ideally in their direction and with gusto.
If you don't know things, they can control you with anything.
Nothing is broken. It just turned out our original guesses were wrong. This is why we build bigger and better telescopes, to check to see if our guesses are correct. This is wonderful.
This is what i like about science. Being able to admit we don't know, and that's okay. But we can take what we've learned thus far and try to get a better understanding even if we don't understand completely. Also, let's not forget the word science means knowledge so let's see if can improve our knowledge even if it's just a little bit.
It’s always been. ♾
We rented the Hubble for the night and although the rez wasn't like the Weber it was more intimate than I could ever imagine only seeing it besides a school book!~ I squealed like a little girl! I love that there seems to be no boundaries. That's a lot to wrap around a human dum-dum head!~ I love that you also have make space for new discoveries and diff hypothesis!!
You rented the Hubble Space Telescope for the night?? Who are you? 😎 What were you researching? i have so many questions. I imagine it was awesome!
@@3p1cand3rs0n Yes I guess a group of people can rent it for 1,200 and get two hosts that help aline it and give us the fandango... it from seven to two (not really all night) but we were allowed to stay on property and feast on the constellations and LA basin lit below... I cried like a baby! Well actually it sounded like a sexual release. The guy next to another guy said, "That's why I paid the big money!!" (Probs~had to have been there.) It was super innocent!
There is a possibility that the observable universe, is just that, the edge of what we can optically observe. Scientists expect that looking at the cosmic horizon is looking at the BEGINNING of the universe after the big bang. While we are looking towards the past, it's possible we are NOT looking towards the BEGINNING. By assuming we are looking towards the begginning, we expect for galaxies to not form a certain way etc.
_"There is a possibility that the observable universe, is just that, the edge of what we can optically observe"_
No, that's not a possibility, that's a certainty. We know we can't see everything.
_"Scientists expect that looking at the cosmic horizon is looking at the BEGINNING of the universe after the big bang."_
Light takes time to travel so you are effect looking back in time. It's technically true when you have a conversation with someone, there's a delay in the light and sound reaching you; it's just very small.
_"While we are looking towards the past, it's possible we are NOT looking towards the BEGINNING."_
Looking toward the past is by definition looking towards the beginning if there is a beginning; there may not be.
_"By assuming we are looking towards the begginning, we expect for galaxies to not form a certain way etc."_
I have no idea what this means. We have models which apply the laws of physics as we understand them and we make predictions which we compare against data. If they don't comport with data they're what scientists call "wrong". Then you make better models is the idea. As you get more data you improve your models. That's the basic idea.
As an active research scientist, if I knew what I was doing, I would not be doing my job!
*“I want it to be Godzilla”* LOL 😆
Neil is amazing!
2:51 Nerds!
First, it’s nice to see someone had a little grace and didn’t cancel Don outright. Hopefully that’ll be paid forward and/or shown to others.
Second, Neil was, is, and will always be the king of nerds.
Yes, a toast to the engineers who actually made the James Webb telescope happen!
As for the sphere on the beach, deGrasse Tyson is almost certainly right when he says it's most likely to be something completely prosaic. It looks like it has a lug that a clevis would attach to. A float, perhaps part of some kind fishing gear.
The big sphere on the beach looks like your basic foam plastic ship fender.
Human knowledge and understanding can only go so far this brother is educated and knowledgeable but he is human being
I am puzzled by your comment.
@@jerrypolverino6025 My comments is not to make anyone happy because is my individual right to say what I think and believe you’re not enough to change that
@@lansanakoroma2398 It was not a criticism. I just didn’t know what you were trying to say. I still don’t.
Neil definitely rolled out of bed, put on a suit, and took all of 2 mins to get super excited and immediately awake. Love his enthusiasm
Maybe next time actually bring on one of the authors of these studies..
Science is about knowing.
I’d say it is about understanding.
The problem is not wanting to know
It depends on your job,Neal! What about the things moving faster than light and sound?
Tyson knows exactly what that object is. It's an illudium PU-36 space modulator.
Science 🤘🍻
Enough to make one's head explode. :)
We're not alone 👽👽
#LetsGoNeil ❤️🔥👍
I m having gut feeling that some grand news regarding our previous understanding of space , universe is going to reveal through James webb telescope
"Don't get things twisted, because I've had that done to me...." nawww.. you meant what you said, Lemon.. It was honest.. you honestly said what you said..
Yes, more data please.
Honestly question are absolutely the reason we comprehend our existence 👍
aw the news guy got excited
Live at the drawing board ❤ it
omg i loved it 😂❤️
This interviewer is a cool guy 😆 He makes me laugh.
Yeah, Don is a cool dude.
This interview gives me vibes of don’t look up
Ndt opening his mind and being a man of science!?!? Who knew!
Love Neil deGrasse Tyson! 😂❤
What would happen to science if there were no questions.👍 And I like the background.😁🤟
Well, he didn't get hot today. good job!
The problem was never "not knowing" its "acting like you know everything"
We should look back at all the super computer simulations and see which model got it right…. Then use that for other physics experiments.
Before the big bang.💣💣
Our knowledge of the universe is at 1 percent and everyone knows that. We have soooo much to learn
🤩👏🏼

The whole problem with the world today is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, and wiser people are so full of doubts.
See also: every yesterday.
You just summed up religion.
So certain of themselves without having any testable evidence.
Astrophysicist says "Please keep paying lots of attention to me!"
His name is Neil deGrasse Tyson
Looks like old naval mine
For good science it's important not to ask questions because someone might get offended to prevent a police visit.
This revelation is equal to the understanding that the Earth revolves around the Sun.
Yes. In Orthodox Christianity, we call this “mystery”. Some things simply cannot be fully “known” by our human brains, as much as we do try.
The more we learn the less we know.
I agree. There is nothing NEW under the sun.
I love this man
Don; good 4:12 to see u back 🎉🎉
They found an old buoy - wow! It even has the tell-tale eye clearly showing what it is 🙄
All of a sudden that prodigious kid who said to deGrasse that he had an hypothesis to disprove the big bang doesn't sound so radical. I am not saying the big bang is incorrect, but he might be up to something in regards of how galaxies are formed.
