Alien Worlds and Extremophiles with Neil deGrasse Tyson & Kennda Lynch - Cosmic Queries

[@StarTalk]

How long until we discover life elsewhere in the universe?

[@CaptPhiI]

Perhaps we've already come across it and just haven't realized it yet.

Yeh, what a great episode ... maybe saga is more appropriate 🤔🤓🤪😁🏆🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🤓🍿🍿🤓🇭🇲🏏🦘💯🤣🕺🙏🏌️🤾

[@mthedu]

Agreed. This is by far my favorite Star Talk episode of all time. These three had such great chemistry, and I was genuinely interested in each question mostly because of the quality of the answer(s). And as you said, to Kennda's credit, she's incredibly passionate, intelligent, and well spoken. Also, I do believe she complimented and added to Neil's already vast knowledge. I'm having a pretty bad year, and maybe even a worse day (don't worry, all hard things can lead to good if one could have enough patience), and this Star Talk actually helped a lot. I'm thankful.

[@scottsherman5262]

I just couldn't agree with you more...this is the absolute best of the KZbins, when smart funny folks get together & we get to enjoy the amazing chemistry, pun intended. She's got the best laugh...personally, I love nothing more than making my lovely wife laugh, so Kennda's laugh alone created a great mood for the two men to feel comfortable & appreciated, thus opening them up to give their all, & then Kennda's extreme competence just leaped off the screen...I'm going to see if she's been in other videos...freaking loved this!!

[@kassistwisted]

I love how much laughter happens on Cosmic Queries. It's so wonderful to hear scientists having such a good time talking about their favourite subjects.

[@FirstnameLastname-fd9cp]

Nice, I really hope you can find PhD place that is right for you. I too am looking for one and I find it really nerve-racking.

[@King_Arthur97]

Yes it can be difficult. I chose a program at UCLA largely based off the type of research being done and the diversity of research topics in my umbrella program. Good luck!

Very intelligent sista!! Glad Dr Tyson brings us to the spot light!!! 😎👍🏿

[@mekongdon]

I love these 3 super intelligent people, Chuck has the command of comedy way beyond any comedian. Neal has an overall knowledge of science that in almost unbelievable, and can explain it to anyone. All 3 are mind blowing. This is my favourite program by far.

[@realtorforlouisiana]

I love the small group of scientists, like Kennda who pull together seemingly different subjects together like this. I love it!!!

She needs to be on more for sure it’s hard to find someone who has this much humor with them together. It’ll be me Chuck and Neil laughing most of the time

Forget _scientists_ who _look_ like her. We need more _people _*_like_* her. Crazy smart, crazy motivated. If more of us were like that, it would be an amazing world.

Exactly. Judge me not by the color of my skin but by the content of my character. Forget about looks man.

[@user-vl4vo2vz4f]

For that to happen at huge scales we have to start to value science as much as we value celebrities and sport players. Our advance as a society depends on science and here we are playing millions to nimrods playing balls.

@@jacoblinares2403 "I don't think we can ignore race" - MLK

[@tidescent]

@@jacoblinares2403 Finally, let me give you the full quote that you took out of context: "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character." We are clearly not there yet, so long as people continue to have a problem associating positive things with being black. We will never get there if we keep trying to tell black people to shut up every time they are proud of being black.

[@alfredvincent594]

EVERYONE needs heroes! Even a 13 1/2 year old girl who made the comment in a question. As a 52 year old white man and native Texan, her comment didn't make me cringe. I have so many 'heroes' that 'look like me' , I can take it for granted that it's 'no big deal'. She doesn't! Why does it hurt your ego that a 13 1/2 year old girl chooses the heroes that she chooses? Who should they be and how should she qualify them in your infinite wisdom? BTW, the MLK 'content of your character' quote is taken out of context by almost everyone on this thread save one.

[@dallasoch]

Since kennda said she did not want to age herself I just wanted to say that for a lady in her mid-40s(I'm guessing by her accomplishments) that she looks very young, with a joyful childlike face. She's not only brilliant but actually has a personality with a sense of humor too. This made for a very enjoyable episode.

[@enoughstuff333]

Love your simplified explanatory videos ❤️❤️❤️. Similarly - - I am always curious about what "Energy" actually is? We eat food to get energy, heat is a form of energy, there is kinetic energy and potential energy and there is a conservation of energy. So where does the definition of energy fits into the big picture of the whole universe? Is there a texture of different kind of energy out there in the universe?

[@mnmmnm8321]

Nice question: all I remember was that heat was the last form of energy..

[@mnmmnm8321]

It goes from Chemical, to Potential, to Mechanical, to Heat .. but I don't really understand what that means!

[@debabrata3605]

@@mnmmnm8321 When we are talking about chemical energy we are talking about the energy molecules have stored in them and the bonds they formed with other molecules, but when we are talking about the potential energy of a body which is in a certain height with respect to the ground we say that object have a higher potential energy but if we look closely every object is made up of small molecules, so does that mean that potential energy is stored in the molecules and in the bigger picture energy can only be stored in molecules/atoms!!??

Interested to hear a segment on how how the space program, especially on the ISS, will continue to operate with the rising tensions and new sanctions. Will our astronauts be able to receive supplies, remain safe on the ISS or come home safely if needed? Does a strong space program give advantages during war times and how? I’ve always hoped that exploration and seeking of knowledge would keep us all united. I’ve seen news stories about the potential for division between astronauts and cosmonauts (not very reliable, why I’d love to hear from the experts) about how and if things can continue to move forward safely and amicably for all. Thanks so much and I look forward to new segments each week!!
