Neil deGrasse Tyson Explains Why Science Is Hard

Ғылым және технология

Neil deGrasse Tyson has spent his whole career trying to convince people that science is worth pursuing and understanding. So, why, in this video, is he saying science is hard? Well, according to Neil, science is hard in a way you might not fully appreciate.
On this StarTalk explainer, Neil deGrasse Tyson and comic co-host Chuck Nice are exploring why science can be hard. Neil paints a historical tapestry that explores the discovery of Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto, to demonstrate the difficulties that can come along during scientific study.
First, you’ll hear about William Herschel and his discovery of the planet Uranus. Find out why William had to fight against his pre-conceived notions of comets in order to accept his discovery. You’ll learn why the planet was originally named George. Then, we investigate the discovery of Neptune, Pluto, and the almost discoveries of Planet Vulcan and Planet X. Lastly, Neil and Chuck explore why science is a journey, not a destination.

    Isaac Asimov once said "The greatest phrase in science is not Eureka (I've found it) but rather "Hmm, that's strange" Part of science is providing answers to problems. The other part of science is discovering the next problem that requires solution.

    This is probably the most interesting science video that I've ever watched. It explains how science and discovery actually works and how long it takes. Most people I run into get confused as to why science keeps changing its mind when in reality they don't realize there's a process. School never showed me this and I had to think by myself and make my own discovery but I could never explain how it works but I knew. Thank you for this video.

    When Neil started with the deviation of Uranus' orbit, I asked myself whether he will bring up the explanation of Mercury's and yes, he didn't disappoint me. Einstein's greatest moment of joy in his life was when he calculated its orbit with his freshly developed and not yet published theory of general relativity and had a perfect match.

    And I love the way he described it because he talked about Einstein expanding on Newton's theory so he gave such respect to Newton's physical model by saying Einstein expanded on this understanding. It was such an eloquent way you know to put the advancement of our understanding. The way he said it here I thought was both a good way to imagine how we build on knowledge, and how new knowledge doesn't take away from what was accomplished. We keep on growing. 💗 Beautiful.
