I've just heard a little bit about this, but I'm very intrigued by it. I think Neil DeGrasse Tyson is a great choice for the host.

Yeah, looking forward to this. I think they picked a good host. Either him or Brian Cox, although I do prefer Brain.
I'm pretty excited about this myself. Can't wait to check it out. Tyson really has emerged as a bit of a celebrity in the world of science. I feel like he's just about what a showman and scientist should be.
Really like this so far. Feel like I'm joining Neil as we travel the known universe in an interstellar living room. It's cool though with good production.
Stuff like this makes me feel privileged to live now and even know about s*** like Galaxies.

It was a very fun watch. It's amazing how small we are. The way it was portrayed tonight was unlike any other way I've seen. The bubble matrix was humbling. I mean, it's endless. There's just so much out there, and her, and inside us.
One negative, it made me depressed that I didn't become a scientist. I'm really regretting that. Science was always my favorite subject growing up. Math was second. I like figuring stuff out and learning about how everything works. *sadface*
They covered so much this episode so it leaves me wondering how many other topics there will be. It sounds like next week it teased to be about Evolution.
Also, since Neil is an Astrophysicist, there must be a least one mind bending show on the current science about Black Holes. Epic TV.
Actually, when this whole series is done, I wonder if it could repackage as an IMAX film followup.

Finally saw this show on Sunday and it's soooooo good. Very fun to watch and it does feel like an adventure. Would love to see some of this on the big screen, especially an Imax screen. So cool and educational.
A few doh moments! I thought for sure I was recording the series but I wasn't. I missed the second episode so I set it to record all new episodes on Nat Geo..... On Mondays! I thought all new episodes will be on Nat Geo the first night! I checked Nat Geo on-demand and they only had it in SD. So I waited. It disappeared. It turns out that it's on Fox on-demand.
And I'm pretty bummed that I didn't get a science degree. *sadface.gif*

I feel like if I went for a second degree, it should be something science related. I'm just a little intimidated because it's been a long time since I studied science on any kind of academic level. I've forgotten so much that I'd feel like starting from the beginning would be a necessity.
Since I'm thinking of becoming a teacher, I would really like to teach science more than any other subject.
Haven't seen the new season yet. I was recording it until I cancelled my YTTV sub. Could probably just use my parent's cable account to log into the Nat Geo app though..
