Science Man.

He Was Born In Manhattan, New York On
5th October 1958. Tyson grew up in the Castle Hill neighbourhood of the Bronx, and
later in Riverdale. His interest in astronomy began
at the age of nine after visiting the sky theatre of the Hayden Planetarium. He
recalled that “so strong was that imprint [of the night sky] that I’m
certain that I had no choice in the matter, that in fact, the universe called
me.” During
high school, Tyson attended astronomy courses offered by the Hayden
Planetarium, which he called “the most formative period” of his life.

Tyson obsessively studied astronomy in his teen years, and
eventually even gained some fame in the astronomy community by giving lectures
on the subject at the age of fifteen. Astronomer Carl Sagan,
who was a faculty member at Cornell University, tried to recruit Tyson to
Cornell for undergraduate studies. In
his book, The Sky Is Not the Limit, Tyson wrote:

admission office, unbeknownst to me, had forwarded my application to Carl
Sagan’s attention. Within weeks, I received a personal letter…
His

The Astrophysics Community. Tyson’s research has focused on observations
in cosmology, stellar
evolution, galactic astronomy, bulges,
and stellar formation. He has held numerous positions at
institutions including the University of Maryland, Princeton University, the American Museum of Natural History,
