Neil deGrasse Tyson Wiki Biography
Neil deGrasse Tyson was born on 5 October 5 1958, in Manhattan, New York City USA, and is a science communicator, cosmologist and astrophysicist. Neil is best known, and became easily recognised among audiences, after the radio and television series “Cosmos: A Personal Voyage” (1980), and hosting such popular TV shows as “Nova Science Now” (2006 – 2011), “Star Trek” (2009 – present), and “Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey” (2014). At present he works as a research associate at the American Museum of Natural History in the department of astrophysics, and the head of the Hayden Planetarium at the Rose Center for Earth and Space.
So just how rich is Neil deGrasse Tyson, as of early 2018? Sources have estimated that the overall amount of Neil’s net worth is over $2 million, accumulated from his work in the area of astrophysics, including related TV and radio shows.
Neil was interested in astronomy from early childhood, including doing well at the Bronx High School, even becoming the editor of the Physical Science Journal, and at fifteen years of age he was giving lectures on astronomy in the astronomy community. He graduated from Harvard University with a Bachelor of Arts in 1980, with a Master of Arts from the University of Texas at Austin in 1983, and subsequently with both a Master of Philosophy and a Doctorate of Philosophy in astrophysics from Columbia University. Tyson targeted his research on the specific topics of stellar formation, bulges, galactic astronomy, stellar evolution and cosmology. He has worked with authority at various institutions, including the Hayden Planetarium, the American Museum of Natural History, Princeton University and the University of Maryland, all contributing to his net worth.
Neil is constantly advocating spreading and increasing NASA operations, and systematically appears in the mass-media as a science communicator. He has published a number of books and scientific publications, and during his career he has received many awards and honours, among which the most important are the Medal of Excellence, Columbia University, New York City (2001), NASA Distinguished Public Service Medal (2004), Science Writing Award (2005), Klopsteg Memorial Award winner (2007), Douglas S. Morrow Public Outreach Award from the Space Foundation (2009), Isaac Asimov Award from the American Humanist Association (2009) and Critics’ Choice Television Award for Best Reality Show Host (2014). Neil has been valued and honoured in every field of his work, no matter whether it is pure science or an entertaining program on TV – he spreads his spirituality, charisma and knowledge everywhere.
In his personal life, in 1988 Neil deGrasse Tyson married Alice Young, who he met while studying at the University of Texas: they have two daughters. Neil de Grasse Tyson is always described as a spiritual person, and he has spread his views about spirituality of science in his works. He has also conveyed messages about racial and social justice during his interviews, as he is well known and the most visible, as well as a black- skinned person. He usually emphasizes the importance of being empathetic, and is also an activist of the PETA organization, which fights for animal rights.

Neil deGrasse Tyson Quotes
- My great fear is that we’ve in fact been visited by intelligent aliens, but they chose not to make contact, on the conclusion that there’s no sign of intelligent life on earth. We were sending signals out before we were doing it on purpose. Our early TV shows like ‘I Love Lucy’ and ‘The Honeymooners’ and that sort of thing – ‘Howdy Doody’. These are our cultural emissaries.
- [on if religion and science have an inherent conflict between them] – Most religious people in America, fully embrace science. So the argument that religion has some issue with science applies to a small fraction of those who declare that they are religious. They just happen to be a very vocal fraction so you got the impression that there are more of them than there actually is. It’s actually the minority of religious people who rejects science or feel threatened by it or want to sort of undo or restrict where science can go. The rest, you know, are just fine with science. And has been that way ever since the beginning. And by the way, there’s no tradition of scientists knocking down the door, the Sunday school door, telling the preacher what to teach. There’s no tradition of scientists picketing outside of churches nor should there be some [emergent] tradition of religious fundamentalists trying to change the curriculum in the science classroom. There’s been a happy coexistence for centuries. And for that to change now would be unfortunate. Because I’ve seen this happen in other nations and the other states where the consequences are that you just basically recede back to the cave because that’s where you land when you undermine the scientific and technological innovations that come about when you’re a properly trained scientist or technologist. Consider also that in America, 40% of American scientists are religious. So this notion that there’s some… that if you’re a scientist, you’re an atheist or if you’re religious, you’re not a scientist, that’s just empirically false. It’s an empirically false statement. And what I mean by religious is that you can pose the question in a way that is unambiguous. You don’t ask, well, do you go to church every Sunday ’cause plenty of people go to church, like, just for the pie, you know, or the social scene after the service. You ask people, do you pray to [a person or] God. If you say yes to that, you’re religious by, presumably, anybody’s standards of your conduct. And it’s the yes to that question that applies to 40% of scientists. So, there’re plenty of atheists who are scientists or not scientists. There maybe a conflict but many people in this country coexist in both worlds.
- This present-day version of God of the gaps goes by a fresh name: intelligent design. … Instead, why not tally all those things whose design … reflect[s] the absence of intelligence?
- Science is a philosophy of discovery. Intelligent design is a philosophy of ignorance.
- Another practice that isn’t science is embracing ignorance. Yet it’s fundamental to the philosophy of intelligent design: I don’t know what this is … So it must be the product of a higher intelligence.
- [T]he persistent failures of controlled, double-blind experiments to support the claims of parapsychology suggest that what’s going on is nonsense rather than sixth sense.
- To the scientist, the universality of physical laws makes the cosmos a marvelously simple place. By comparison, human nature-the psychologist’s domain-is infinitely more daunting.
- Emotional truths woven by lawyers in the court of law are apparently more important than the truths of actual events. I have grown to fear for those whose innocence became trapped within the legal system.
- [Regarding Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977)] – They all knew the mother-ship was coming, they all knew it was a flying saucer, they all knew it came from another planet through the vacuum of space. And so what do they do, to the left of that monument? They set up runway lights. And I’m thinking, if you could travel through the vacuum of space, you don’t need runway lights. Runway lights are if you’re using air for lift. Aliens would not need air for lift.
- So what is true for life itself is no less true for the universe: knowing where you came from is no less important than knowing where you are going.
- I don’t have an issue with what you do in the church, but I’m going to be up in your face if you’re going to knock on my science classroom and tell me they’ve got to teach what you’re teaching in your Sunday school. Because that’s when we’re going to fight.
- We should not be ashamed of not having answers to all questions yet. … I’m perfectly happy staring somebody in the face saying, ‘I don’t know yet, and we’ve got top people working on it.’ The moment you feel compelled to provide an answer, then you’re doing the same thing that the religious community does: providing answers to every possible question.
- Whenever people have used religious documents to make accurate predictions about our base knowledge of the physical world, they have been famously wrong.
- [A]s they are currently practiced, there is no common ground between science and religion. … Although just as in hostage negotiations, it’s probably best to keep both sides talking to each other.
- I lose sleep at night wondering whether we are intelligent enough to figure out the universe. I don’t know.
- [on what his favorite sci-fi movies are] – Deep Impact (1998) and Contact (1997). They spent a lot of time getting the science right. I’m on a crusade to get movie directors to get their science right because, more often than they believe, the science is more extraordinary than anything they can invent.
- Ever since there have been people, there have been explorers, looking in places where other hadn’t been before. Not everyone does it, but we are part of a species where some members of the species do, to the benefit of us all.
- If that’s how you wanna invoke your evidence for god, then god is an ever receding pocket of scientific ignorance, thats getting smaller, smaller and smaller as time goes on.
- When your reasons for believing something are justified ad hoc, you are left susceptible to further discoveries undermining the rationale for that belief.
- One thing is for certain: the more profoundly baffled you have been in your life, the more open your mind becomes to new ideas.
- I am proud to be part of a species where a subset of its members willingly put their lives at risk to push the boundaries of our existence.
- What are the lessons to be learned from this journey of the mind “through the universe”? That humans are emotionally fragile, perennially gullible, hopelessly ignorant masters of an insignificantly small speck in the cosmos. Have a nice day.
- Science is something to be proud of, it allows us to understand the world in spite of ourselves.
- Where ignorance lurks, so too do the frontiers of discovery and imagination.
- The good thing about science is that it’s true whether or not you believe in it.
- Recognize that the very molecules that make up your body, the atoms that construct the molecules, are traceable to the crucibles that were once the centers of high mass stars that exploded their chemically rich guts into the galaxy, enriching pristine gas clouds with the chemistry of life. So that we are all connected to each other biologically, to the earth chemically and to the rest of the universe atomically. That’s kinda cool! That makes me smile and I actually feel quite large at the end of that. It’s not that we are better than the universe, we are part of the universe. We are in the universe and the universe is in us.
- The more your ideas are untestable, either in principle or in practice, the less useful they are to the advance of science.
