ITS HERE! Cosmos with Astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson: A Space Time Odyssey Series

[rantanamo]

That cosmic calendar and the universe scale . A lot of people don't like this kind of thing because it really shows that we are like the atoms that make up a spec of dust that only showed up 2 seconds ago. The scale of that in space and time is just disturbing to some. Its fascinating to me.

Hell yeah I'm interested in seeing what the viewership was, I'll have to look that up later. I doubt religious folks were feeling it as it is, but they DEFINITELY can't be feeling it after those swipes It was a great premiere. My only concern is that black people aren't appreciating/realizing what just happened. This was a HUGE day in black history.

It was a huge day man. I was so excited for this show and it delivered in every way possible. Neil Tyson is an inspiration to the people and I'm proud he represents us. Plus look at this picture from when he was younger

That's swag right there. Him growing up in the Bronx, like I did, and accomplishing what he has is incredible. A true role model right there.

I texted my sister and told her to dvr and show it to my nephew who is 6. She texts me later, "I just tuned in and they are denouncing God, is this one of your anti God Shows?" I reply not it's about the universe and the science

 

[CouldntBeMeTho]

Neil da gawd tyson has truly blessed us.

That time scale though that was pretty dope. My son and I love science so this was a great way for both of us to bond.

[Serious]

What's wrong wit you?

Dawg all I'm saying is that cats in here are acting like haven't heard this same shyt a million times about cosmic radiation, Copernicus, Galileo etc...

It's literally the same story we've already heard a million times repackaged into a primetime slot...

But I won't front that piece shytting on religion was

Especially on a conservative network such as fox....

[you're NOT "n!ggas"]

Not sure about the other channels, but FOX racked about 5.79 million viewer. In contrast, the #1 show for that time slot, with 13.3 million viewers was premiere of a new tv show called... wait for it... Resurrection



The promo does make it look interesting though some American kid 'resurrects' in a rice paddy in China 30+ years after his own death

 

[Brown_Pride]

We were at church until 8 last night but sped home and watched the last 45 mins of with the boys. Loved it. Have the series set to DVR, kids loved it too.

still though 5.7 million people watched it...that's more than I would have thought.

Its the fact that this is the first time, that *I* know of in my own lifetime, that legit science show is being broadcast at primetime on public television a lot of people can finally be reached and introduced to thought provoking science at a basic level of comprehension. Some kid out there might have just been trying to catch Family Guy and found themselves reeled in not to mention the black excellence being put on display just seeing NDT on a show like Cosmos is likely to make a a lot of our black youth more interested in the STEM fields.
