Neil deGrasse Tyson on coronavirus, climate change, war & space exploration (E953)

On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to world-renowned astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson. He discusses what the United States and many European countries have gotten wrong in their coronavirus response, the politicization of science and the damage it has done to effectively fight Covid-19, opportunities and hurdles in fighting climate change, how militarization and warfare have always been linked to advances in science and technology, how war is not just an American but a human disease, why China will be the first to hear from aliens if they contact us, the future of space exploration and much more!
