Are you at least 26 years-old? If so, you are older than Isaac Newton was when he invented calculus... on a dare! (If you're younger than 26, better hurry up.) Big Think expert and overall cool guy Neil deGrasse Tyson explains why Newton is the greatest physicist who ever and likely will ever live.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NEIL DEGRASSE TYSON:
Neil deGrasse Tyson was born and raised in New York City where he was educated in the public schools clear through his graduation from the Bronx High School of Science. Tyson went on to earn his BA in Physics from Harvard and his PhD in Astrophysics from Columbia. He is the first occupant of the Frederick P. Rose Directorship of the Hayden Planetarium. His professional research interests are broad, but include star formation, exploding stars, dwarf galaxies, and the structure of our Milky Way. Tyson obtains his data from the Hubble Space Telescope, as well as from telescopes in California, New Mexico, Arizona, and in the Andes Mountains of Chile.Tyson is the recipient of nine honorary doctorates and the NASA Distinguished Public Service Medal. His contributions to the public appreciation of the cosmos have been recognized by the International Astronomical Union in their official naming of asteroid "13123 Tyson".Tyson's new book is Astrophysics for People in a Hurry (2017).

TRANSCRIPT:
Question: Who’s the greatest physicist in history?
DeGrasse Tyson: Isaac Newton. I mean, just look… You read his writings. Hair stands up… I don’t have hair there but if I did, it would stand up on the back of my neck. You read his writings, the man was connected to the universe in ways that I never seen another human being connected. It’s kind of spooky actually. He discovers the laws of optics, figured out that white light is composed of colors. That’s kind of freaky right there. You take your colors of the rainbow, put them back together, you have white light again. That freaked out the artist of the day. How does that work? Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, violet gives you white. The laws of optics. He discovers the laws of motion and the universal law of gravitation. Then, a friend of his says, “Well, why do these orbits of the planets… Why are they in a shape of an ellipse, sort of flattened circle? Why aren’t… some other shape?” He said, you know, “I can’t… I don’t know. I’ll get back to you.” So he goes… goes home, comes back couple of months later, “Here’s why. They’re actually conic sections, sections of a cone that you cut.” And… And he said, “Well, how did find this out? How did you determine this?” “Well, I had to invent integral and differential calculus to determine this.” Then, he turned 26. Then, he turned 26. We got people slogging through calculus in college just to learn what it is that Isaac Newtown invented on a dare, practically. So that’s my man, Isaac Newton.

    Your trademarked slogan should be "Want to get More Dumber, Faster". The above Tyson video is completely addled and wrong. Halley's question on orbits is very famous and well documented. It is the question that prompted Newton to write Principia. The fool Tyson gets the question wrong. More importantly his date is off by about 15 years. Halley asked Newton about orbits when Newton was in his early 40s. It is thought Newton worked out his contributions to calculus when in his early to mid twenties. But obviously it wasn't Halley's question that prompted Newton to think about calculus. Let Victoria Brown and Peter Hopkins become known for their poor scholarship and dishonesty.

Victoria Brown and Peter Hopkins seem to be okay with Tyson's claim that Halley asked his famous question before Newton turned 26. They have made zero effort to correct the misinformation they've helped spread.

    Thanks for your video, highly appreciated. Compliments of the Season. BTC price is in a precarious location, the asset set a new all-time high just days ago but is currently below the record and starting to decline. analysts suggest that the latest rally above $32.000 could have been triggered by aggressive buying from institution investors on coin base, as suggested by the large premium of about $350 compared to the price in binance....The shifting momentum is now presenting in technical indicators supplying bearish movement, adding to the double top narrative that’s been building since failing to break $30,000.?? This being taken into note, it can’t be more obvious that trading Bitcoin is way more profitable than just holding and waiting for the price of Bitcoin to skyrocket. I didn’t think it was possible to make constant win from trading till I came across Carlos Andrewfx program for investors/newbies who lack understanding on how trading Bitcoin works, to help them recover loss from the crash and also stack up more bitcoin, he provided me with %100 signal and with his strategy i was able to increase my portfolio from $4000 to $42,000 in just a week, I was convinced to say his an expert, with Andrew help.

    @age restricted Newton was in a completely different league and...completed his works. DaVinci was neither an engineer, scientist nor mathematician. He was a Renaissance man who excelled in most areas. He struggled with focus, He didn't complete, The Last Supper, Gran Cavallo Sculpture, he left the monastery without completing the Adoration of Magi (which he'd been commissioned), the background of the Mona Lisa is amateurish, according to biographer and expert painter, Vasari. Mathematics, he didn't write and record, one simple equation, he put forth potentials, he made no advancement or notable contribution to mathematics.. As for science, there is/are zero notable contributions to science, that Da Vinci can claim. A brilliant man, but specialist, absolutely not.

    The calculus part of the story is actually somewhat inaccurate. When Edmond Halley (Halley's comet) asked Newton how he would describe the curve of planetary orbit, Newton responded it was an ellipse. When Halley asked how he knew, Newton replied that he had already done the mathematical proof. In fact Newton had invented and been using calculus in his own work for quite some time before anyone else even heard of it. But Newton could not produce the written proof to show Halley because it had been written some time before, and he had misplaced it. So, he rewrote the proof and had it delivered to Halley a few months later. In other words, like Newton's revolutionary telescope as well as so many other things, Newton would solve the mysteries of the universe for his own private amusement (while everyone else struggled) and then grow bored and move on to something else without even telling anyone. It was all mere child's play to him. Tyson is right.....spooky.....making the hair on the back of my neck stand up just thinking about it.

    Newton was no follower. He forged his own beliefs based on his own reasoning which were not entirely inline with the church of his day. No, he would most certainly never come to "realize" anything new. He gave positive arguments in favor of the necessity of a creator and would almost certainly believe such things today.

    @@fredbarker9201 Newton had worked on calculus in his 20s (over a three year period, not two months). And he didn't do it all by himself (as Tyson has claimed). Tyson built on the work of Barrow, Fermat, Cavalieri, Descartes and others. When he did his stuff on elliptical orbits isn't clear, I believe in his late 30s. But yes, he had done the calculuations prior to Halley's question. So Tyson got the reply wrong. "I don't know -- I'll get back to you" is falsifying Newton's reply to Halley. Tyson also got Halley's question wrong. And it didn't take Halley a couple of months to redo his calculations. He got back to Halley 18 months later. And this didn't all happen before Newton turned 26. I wouldn't mind that Tyson wildly exaggerates Newton's accomplishments if he didn't use these falsehoods to push his narrative. Tyson will claim that Newton could have easily done Laplace's n-body mechanics in an afternoon. But he had God on the brain. The idiot seems unaware that Newton invested a great deal of time and effort on 3-body models. Newton spent years trying to model the motion of the earth, moon and sun. After Newton, Euler tried. Does this poser Tyson even know who Leonhard Euler is? Many think Euler is the greatest mathematician that ever lived. Laplace held that opinion. After Euler tried Lagrange worked on it. Maybe you've heard of the Lagrange points? They should be called the Euler Lagrange points since Euler found L1 through L3. Lagrange discovered the points trailing or leading the orbiting body by 60º. Laplace built on the efforts of Newton, Euler and Lagrange. To say Newton could have Laplace's work in an afternoon is stunningly stupid. Tyson likes to brag that Newton is his man. The fat, pompous fool doesn't know shit about Newton.

I also think there was no Big Bang but a BIG DIVIDE of one cosmic cell into 2, and that we are not forever expanding but in the midst of dividing again. If you do some research on this you will see a very strong correlation I promise you.

    hmmm I disagree. He even goes so far as to make fun of people who are interested in luner eclipses. He also apparently gets information wrong about Newton and spews' it out. Neil is a Kardashian "astrophysicist". Great at making viral tweets and scoring screen time. But he hasn't done research or even studied physics in decades. Most of the stuff he says about Newton is wrong, by the way. For example it was Edmund Halley that asked Newton about planetary orbits. Halley asked his famous question in 1684 when Newton was in his 40s (not before he turned 26). Newton didn't reply "I don't know". He told Halley that planets would follow elliptical orbits if the sun's gravity fell of with inverse square of distance, that he had calculated it. And so he had. Newton made his break trhough in 1677 after he had been working on the problem for 12 years. Newton didn't do it two months nor did he do it before he turned 26. It is very infuriating this man drops utter bull shit with such a strong, confident voice.

I definitely wouldn't have have invented something like this obviousbly, but no more than i wouldn't have invented the internal combustion engine. But now they have been invented/discovered, their genius is clear to my mind and i can understand them to a certain degree without any real strain on my brain. Remember that every learning process requires a re-wiring of the brain, so in the sense we are indeed perhaps forcing our brains to think like Newtons when learning calculus, but then you could also say i force my brain to think like Shakespeare when understanding and making sense of his texts.

    Ever why some people are born with great talent and intelligence such as Newton? Its actually Newton`s 3`d law that decides it, lol. Dont believe me? Google *Truthcontest* and read *The Present*. Its the most simple, accurate and complete version of the truth about life, death, mankind and the laws of the universe and how they relate to us as consious beings. When the book reaches enough people it will change everything, it will be seen as the most revolutionary and important book in the history of mankind. It might be laughed at by some to begin with, but the truth will prevail.
