Who died and made this goofball the official spokesperson for science and astronomy? It’s getting annoying seeing his face on my YouTube feed all the time. Along with that other dude, Michio Kaku.
In case y’all got the wrong idea, they’re still cool guys, and fuck Elon. It’s just that I’m past the teenage stoner documentaries of people being “deep” when explaining the science. That’s who Dr. Tyson seems to appeal to.
For some no-nonsense, no fluff science content, I’d recommend Sabine Hossenfelder and the PBS Spacetime series.
PBS Spacetime is one of those golden nuggets of a shitpile thats youtube.
Youtube keeps pushing Sabine, but I don’t agree with her on many things relating to quantium stuff. But yeah, you definitely won’t find any new age quantium mystic crap on her channel.
Re Sabine, there are so many non transphobe people to watch
That’s unfortunate and I didn’t know that about her if true, I admit I only watch her videos every so often and didn’t see anything like that when I watched her channel.
Carl Sagan. Carl Sagan died.
I prefer thunderf00t
PBS spacetime is great, but fuck Sabine Hossenfelder, she loves to pretend to be an expert about things she isn’t qualified to talk about. Like how trans people don’t exist. Or getting basically everything wrong about neurodivergence. She can fuck all the way off
I really love our German equivalents: Harald Lesch and the show TerraX. Had the privilege of seeing him live in a guest lecture in my uni about the anthropocene. He feels so much more genuine and less arrogant than Neil DeGrasse Tyson. If you know German and don’t know him, check him out. Both on TerraX and his YouTube presence. There are even some full lectures on there, similar to the one I saw life.
Sabine Hossenfelder can fuck ALL the way off. She sucks man.
All that money that went to Boeing and Space X should have went to NASA. Fuck private space cunts getting our money. Those engineers should be OURS, not fuckwit Leon.
As much as I hate Elton, SpaceX and StarLink have developed genuinely very great technologies. I feel like NASA could have done the same years ago already, but apparently it needed a space cunt to do it. Sure it sucks that StarLink for example is owned by Elmo, but honestly… better than not having it at all.
Tbf tho, NASA wanted private companies to deal with Moon and earth space so they could focus on their SLS rocket. Obvs fuck that guy, but i think NASA came up with this plan.
I’d put building cathedrals and pyramids more on slaves than worship of deity… other than that, spot on.
And he singles out recovering rockets as a feat of engineering, not space exploration, which would’ve been my second quip.

Neither where build by slaves.
