Just in case you're interested. Also, Neil deGrasse Tyson is redoing the Cosmos series after Sagan, science/astrophysics oriented show. Produced by Sethmcfarlane, the dude who made family guy, special effects by the guys at the Matrix.

Interesting.  It would have been a tad more interesting if Bill Nye weren't arguing with a book salesman the whole time, but it was interesting none the less.

I learned a few things, too.

BILL BILL BILL BILL BILL BILL BILL BILL BILL NYE THE SCIENCE GUY!

I watched the debate even before you posted.  I'm going to type about what I know about Nye and Ham another time.

In September, I saw Neil Degrasse Tyson at Purdue University with 4,000 other people: Purdue

Sagan's and Tyson's Cosmos edited for rednecks:
Sagan's
Tyson's

At the end of today's episode of Cosmos they had a preview that included the Arizona Meteor crater.  I've been to there and the Visitor's Center in 2002.  The Arizona Meteor Crater is 50,000-years-old.  The Crater was in the movie Starman and I liked that movie.  It focuses on a good storyline and makes use of the special effects at the time without overemphasizing special effects: Starman on Internet Movie Database 

In tonight's episode of Cosmos, Tyson said something to the effect of, "We don't know what happened between when the universe started and when the universe was 380,000-years-old."  I'm not sure if I get it.  I've heard about the same thing before.

He's also a used religion salesman!

OK.  I saw Mike Myers and Neil DeGrasse Tyson on this episode of The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon: http://www.hulu.com/watch/645632#i0,p13,d0
 
I finished watching all of the episodes of Tyson’s Cosmos.  I saw Tyson at Purdue University in September with about 4,000 others in Elliott Hall of Music.  It was well worth our time.  He had shown a picture of Saturn positioned so that Earth was a pale blue dot in the background.  The photo wasn’t edited in any way.
