On this episode of The Story & Craft Podcast, we sit down with astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson from the Hayden Planetarium.  It was a great chat where we discussed his new book, “Welcome to The Universe in 3D: A Visual Tour.”  We also discussed his origin story, his favorite sci-fi and more - including the chance meeting and collaboration with Seth MacFarlane that brought Cosmos back to TV.  Neil is a great educator and guide to many that like to look up to the sky for inspiration.  It was a pleasure to talk story with the dynamic personality that is “Your Personal Astrophysicist”, Neil deGrasse Tyson.SHOW HIGHLIGHTS0:03:35 - Neil deGrasse Tyson Reflects on Cosmos0:07:56 - Talented Adults Shaped Our Interests0:09:29 - Astrophysics, Role Models, and Lost Knowledge 0:18:08 - NASA, Private Enterprise, and Space Exploration0:22:25 - Making the Universe Accessible0:29:02 - Living on Mars0:30:17 - Science in Movies and Space-Time Concept 0:41:22 - Cosmos on Disney Plus0:44:53 - Childhood Crushes and TV Shows0:48:59 - Dream Job0:53:42 - Time Travel and ParadoxesListen and subscribe on your favorite podcast app.  Also, check out the show and sign up for the newsletter at www.storyandcraftpod.com...#podcast #interview #NeildeGrasseTyson #Scientist #Astrophysicist #Astrophysics #Astronomy #Stars #StarTalk #Cosmos #CosmosOnTV #FOX #FOXTV #NatGeo #HaydenPlanetarium #Book #Author #ThoughtLeader #Educator #NASA #Space #SpaceTravel #CarlSagan #SethMacFarlane #PlanetarySociety #WelcomeToTheUniverse
