A Talk on Astrophisics and Science

Postby wingspan33 » Sat Nov 09, 2019 9:50 am

I just found this YouTube video with Steven Colbert and Neil DeGrasse Tyson talking about a wide range of interesting and important subjects. Important, that is, to every human being. It's just shy of 1 and 1/2 hours long so be forewarned. For an astrophysicist N D T is a very funny guy. If you watch, I hope you enjoy.

Here's the video - [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YXh9RQCvxmg#t=33m40s[/youtube]

PS - I found this video while trying to find a video of the model Globe on the Daily Show rotating the wrong way. I was looking for that in response to the < https://ushawks.org/forum/viewtopic.php ... 9e9d391183 > thread.

Hi Scott,

You can post a link to a video with the regular [url] tag:

    [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YXh9RQCvxmg#t=33m40s[/url]

Which gives this:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YXh9RQCvxmg#t=33m40s

You can also link a phrase with the [url=...] tag:

    Watch this [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YXh9RQCvxmg]cool video[/url].

Which gives this:

    Watch this cool video.

Or you can embed the YouTube video with just the ID in the [youtube] tag:

    [youtube]YXh9RQCvxmg[/youtube]

Which gives this:

Using the software at the Hawks via my iPhone 6s I find the software
to be user vicious. After clicking on the QUOTE button and then attempting
to do a copy/paste one can sink into insanity in the
shortest time possible.
