Why should I trust scientists that are completely detached from their field of study?
You shouldn't trust other people, scientists or not, only your own judgment thanks to the rigor and precision you apply to the process of acquiring it.
>>16998780They don't have telescopes in new york? are you implying Mr. Tyson has never seen the real stars despite being an astronomer?Well he's not even an astronomer first off he's a science communicator so i dont know why him seeing the real stars or not matters
>>16998780IIRC he became interested in astronomy after seeing the unpolluted night sky for the first time. Of all the gripes you could have with BSM this is definitely a strange one.
>>16998780The only options you have are trusting your own mind or trusting someone else's. If you are too retarded to read and understand the major works a field is built on, trusting the experts will get you better results more often than your own understanding.
>>16999380This sort of "skepticism" is so phony and performative. They just preemptively decide what they want to believe then use the fake skepticism to disregard what they don't like out of hand and then for things they want to believe their skepticism evaporates and they mindlessly accept anything. It's always this way with self proclaimed skeptics
>>16999380>anyway wanna check out my roadkill penis collection?
If Tyson lived in the country near a telescope, then he would be an astronomer.
>>16999386Slightly true but I'll take phony skepticism over lying jewish bureaucracy every day senpai
>>16998780This faggot is actually making science incredibly cringe. Reddit virgins love him because he's a minority with a verbal IQ above 100 (almost impossible) and he regurgitates pop sci bullshit. I hate this loser more than you can imagine.
>>16998906A telescope doesn't counteract light pollution you fucktard. That's why they have telescope meetups in deep rural areas so they can actually use them properly. t. Bortle 2 Chad
>>16998780>OP apparently isn't aware of cars, planes, and trains
>>16999370>Wow, the sky is so amazing. >I had no idea it looked like this.>I'm so amazed at this that I'm going to dedicate my entire life to it.>Stays in the place where he can't see the thing that inspired his life's work.Yeah, I'm calling BS. Neil was always an opportunist, using proto-DEI to his advantage. Astronomy was likely a place with little resistance to early DEI pressure, so he took the path of least resistance to a doctorate. In another timeline he does psychology and is the Dr. Joyce Brothers of his time.
>>16999435Anon apparently doesn't understand travel time of cars, planes, and trains.
>>16998780its an hours drive from NY to perfect night viewing conditions. lay off the retard juice
