I love listening to Neil DeGrasse Tyson speak. He is, in my eyes, the most intelligent man in the world that can explain things in a way that makes it easier to understand. As far as forward thinking and intelligence, I put him up there with Steven Hawking and Brian Greene. Below is a video that I segmented to show only the end of a 1.5 hour interview on PBS. He vividly objectifies about the possible origins of humanity as well as our level of intelligence. This video will surely get you thinking for a while. The only part of this video clip that I don’t agree with is when he brings up the notion of humans having been evolved from Martian bacteria… though potentially feasible, I think it’s more plausible that evolution started here on Earth. Feel free to comment below on your opinions of the origin of humans and intelligence. And with that, enjoy…
UPDATE: If your video starts at the beginning and not skipped ahead to where I set it to… just go forward to the 1 hour, 14 minutes, 45 second mark
