Neil deGrasse Tyson Quotes About Challenges

• The caricature of science is that we hold tight to the theories we have, and shun challenges to them. That's just not true.

• If NASA were advancing a space frontier there would be challenges you've never seen before. You have to be creative and you have to patent some new idea. You get to Mars...well, how do we get the water from the soil? I gotta invent a new device that will do that. And the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, how can we use that? Can we breathe the oxygen from the carbon dioxide?
