Why Science Literacy Matters

Neil DeGrasse Tyson holds court well into the wee hours of the night during the Stargazing Party at the 2010 World Science Festival, held at the base of the James Webb Space Telescope in downtown NYC. The astrophysicist and always-enthusiastic science communicator shares his views on why science matters and building a better future on the "sweat equity" of the generations before us.
Original Program Date: June 4, 2010
The World Science Festival gathers great minds in science and the arts to produce live and digital content that allows a broad general audience to engage with scientific discoveries. Our mission is to cultivate a general public informed by science, inspired by its wonder, convinced of its value, and prepared to engage with its implications for the future.
