Anyone watching this show.Enjoying most of it but some things are hard to comprehend. Like the entire world is made up of atoms.Anyway love Neil Degrasse Tyson he is very entertaining,especially on  youtube.I'll bet some teachers are requiring students to watch this show .

I love Neil DeGrasse Tyson! I listed to his podcast called "Star Talk" all the time! I actually haven't had a chance to watch the new version of Cosmos, but before they aired the new version, they were showing reruns of the old one with Carl Sagan. I watched those and they were very interesting, but the graphics were so not what they are today! But I love anything that has to do with space and astronomy, so I think I might try tuning in to the new Cosmos!

Yes, love it.  Yes, everyone and everything in the whole universe is made up entirely of atoms moving at different rates of speed and at different distances from each other.  If you really want your mind blow watch the movie "What the Bleep".  All things, and people, are energy vibrating at different speeds.  Solid is just an illusion.   :glasses-nerdy:

Don't even get me started - forget atoms, the fun stuff is the subatomic particles - charm, quark, strange...spin up, spin down.  The Pauli Exclusion Principle, Schrodinger equation (or Schrodinger's cat thought experiment), Higgs Bozon (which a friend of mine told me science has actually found - for real - it really does exist!).  The list is endless...

Science is completely awesome!

I have been watching a little bit. I think they try to entertain too much.

I keep forgetting to check it out. But I've heard a lot of good things. I'll have to see when it's on next.
