My brood is on your hands, cbs its the late show with Stephen Colbert. Tonight, stephen welcomes Neil Degrasse tyson and todd barry. Featuring jon batiste and stay human. And now, live on tape from the ed sullivan theater in new york city, its Stephen Colbert cheers and applause stephen hey hey theer cheers and applause thank you very much. Thanks, everybody. Welcome to the late show, everybody. Im your host, Stephen Colbert. These people are incredible. These people are here through an absolutely terrible, terrible day out there. They went through hell to be here tonight,un. Im so proud of you people. cheers and applause i wasnt going to do a good show tonight, but i think i might do a good show because these people put some effort into it. I hope everybody is all right. Everybody is safe and warm in here, nobody lost anything to frostbite, nothing, you know, important snapped off, like a graham cracker. And everybody at home, too. Here in new york, as i said, we got slammed, the biggest snowfall of the season from what the Weather Channel is calling winter storm steal and im calling winter storm crazy balls, okay. Because these people waited outside to see the show, and i absolute their crazy balls. cheers and applause by the way, i also want to salute my staff and crew for being here today to do the show. cheers and applause jon thank you all. Stephen you know, it could have been worse. It could have been a worse kay. We were supposed to get up to two feet of snow, but it turned to sleet early just cold and brittle, right in your face. It reminded me of kellyanne conway. cheers and applause just cold, right in the face. Right in jon itin the eye stephen it got so bad today, someone in times square cut open an elbow and climbed inside for warm ppght but hes fine. Im sure hes fine. No letters, please. But people here are finding ways to keep busy and get busy, because new yorkers are flocking to the craigslist looking for a blizzard buddy. You know, a blizzard buddy. Somebody to come over for a little netflix and windchill. It could be fun. Theres a lot of cleanup to be done, but the private sector has stepped up to help. One adult video website can i say the name of the website . I cant say the name of the website . Legally cant say or cbs does not want me to say it . Does not want me to say it. Lets say its a porn site that has a lot of choices. Its sort of like a hub its like a hub its a hub where there anyway, this Unnamed Company announced it would donate Snow Removal Services to several cities in the northeast because it wants to plow boston. Very generous. Very, very generous. Im not sure i trust the porn industry with city services. I mean, these people can barely deliver a pizza. laughter but if this works out, maybe Porn Companies can take over other government functions, because like the Trump Administration, they feature real, live amateurs. cheers and applause what else . And despite 5,000 flights being grounded today, nbcs tom costello went to the airport for this indepth report. There isnt anybody here there arent any planes here laughter applause stephen thank you, tom, for that report from no bleep istan. That took me by surprise. But that guy, tom, had it easy, compared to most of his colleagues. You can see the snow and the sleet is really coming down hard right now. We are just getting socked with snow. It is about as miserable is it can get right now. The wind pounding in your face. Of course it feels pretty awful out here i have to tell you. Stephen yes, you do have to tell me, because i stayed inside. Well, the late show will not be outstormed. So here from our awardwinning standing outside team is brian stack. Brian, how is it going out there, my man . Its really bad, stephen. Its cold, very windy, with sharp ice crystals being hurled by the wind into my face. Stephen that sounds really bad. It is bad, stephen. Can i please come back in . Stephen not yet, brian. We need you out there to tell us how bad the weather is. Cant you just look out the window . Stephen no windows in the studio, brian. You are our eyes and ears. Well, my eyes are stinging and ears are going to snap off, stephen. I can please come back in im not a meteorologist stephen no, brian. Youve got to stay out there. The public needs to know they made a good decision to stay indoors. For the love of god, have mercy is this about the yogurt i took out out of the fridge . I thought it was for everybody. Stephen it said debs yogurt, brian, ok . Is your name deb . She doesnt even work here anymore. Stephen rules are rules, brian. Im sorry. Stephen, i hear wolves. Stephen maybe the wolves will have some yogurt for you, brian. Well get back to you later if the storm worsens. It could get worse . oh, god. Theyre coming. I can see their eyes Stephen Brian stack, everybody theyre mesmerizing. Stephen brian stack. cheers and applause hell be fine, right . Hes going to be fine. Hell be fine. Hes tough. He can take a lot of punishment. Yesterday, the Congressional Budget Office is that what its called c. B. O. E. , did i get that right, the Congressional Budget Office, the three most boring words in the english language the c. B. O. Released their analysis of the republican healthcare plan, and they say the number of people losing coverage is 24 million. Audience boo stephen to put that into perspective, look to the person on your right. Now look to the person on your left. Now do that 12 million mor one person who likes the plan is paul ryan. Im pretty excited about it. It actually exceeded my expectation. Stephen really, 24 Million People losing their health care exceeded your expectations . You sound like the most optimistic die in the donner party. Everything is great. I expected to eat my grandma miles ago. If you excuse me, ive got to go salt my cousin. cheers and applause one supporter of the bill, oregon representative greg walden, argued that the c. B. O. E. s score was incomplete, because it does not include parts of the g. O. P. Plan not included in the bill. Yeah, thats not fair. When they analyzed the bill, they didnt consider stuff wasnt in there. Could be anything Health Savings accounts, nougat, a unicorn that gives prostate exams. laughter very unpleasant. I wanted to paint a picture for you. And paul ryans headache is just beginning because brietbart has leaked an audio of ryan on a Conference Call last october, and he had some strong words about standing up to trump. Stephen adding, by future, i mean between now and the election. After that, im going to fold like a trump casino. cheers and applause its a different metaphor. Paul ryans people are trying to downplay this, saying, obviously a lot has happened since then. Yes, a lot has happened since then. Even in the field of medicine. For instance, paul ryan underwent major surgery to have his sack removed. laughter jon oh stephen yeah, yeah. Oooh oooh. Is ray low note he can no longer hit. laughter woooo can i get a note on that . Thank you. So why would breitbart, a farright website, go after paul ryan at this vulnerable time . Well, it turns out, they they think the new Health Care Plan isnt conservative enough because it does not repeal obamacare. Yeah, 24 Million People losing Health Insurance doesnt go far enough. They Want Health Care as the founders intended dying at 35 of scrivners dropsy. Have you heard about the latest Trump Administration revelation . There had been a lot of them. Put butt this is an interesting one it came out last night that tillersonuteed an email alias while he was c. E. O. Of exxon to discuss Climate Change on the sly in the Trump Administration you can be a sexist or white supremacist, but you want to keep your science talk on the d. L. Jon keep it low. Stephen the best part story applause the best part story was that instead of using the name Rex Tillerson in these Climate Science emails, he used an alias, and the alias was wayne tracker. laughter wayne tracker, which actually sounds less like a madeup cowboy name than Rex Tillerson. laughter i dont think he should be allowed two coolsounding manly names. If youre born Rex Tillerson, your alias should have to be something not manly like mel dampler or humbert knucklebutt now, do not google knuckle butt, by the way. Now, exxonmobil says that the wayne tracker email wasnt used to hide Climate Change discussions. Well, of course not. Wayne tracker is a great name for your sexy novel about emailing cowboys. In fact, i happen to have a copy of that book. The adventures of wayne tracker, written by flex drillerson. Here we go. Jon all right, reporter, all right cheers and applause all right laughter stephen we didnt have a guitar in rehearsal. Get on the horse, now wayne tracker called. And jessieanne slipped her soft hand into his calloused one. With a grunt, he heaved her onto the horse just as the water started barrelling down the canyon at them. Is the creek flooded . Asked jessieann, as her arms encircled his strong, rippling torso. No, its rising sea levels due to an increase in co2 in the atmosphere melting the ice caps, he smoldered, adding, but please dont tell anybody i said that. Then they did it right there on the horse. laughter applause weve got a great show for you tonight.

Ladies and gentlemen, if i could pick one guest to get snowed in with, it would be this guy. Please welcome the director of the Hayden Planetarium at the American Museum of natural history, Neil Degrasse tyson cheers and applause how are you, man . Its beautiful. Stephen can we get a shot of that, jim . I love what youve done with the place. Youve got the moon over there, the planets. Stephen, of course, of course. Anything for neil tyson. Happy pi day. That is today march 143. 14 theres more going. Stephen 9. 2. Q. 6. 5, 3. I dont know. My son is much better at it than i am. Stephen kids are always theyve got the memories. Theyve got the memories. He got 61 decimal places. In the big picture thats not even very much. Hes 16 now, but he had that from age 11. Stephen wow. Yeah. Stephen but in the big picture of pi, everything is small because its infinite, right . Its infinite. But i think the force is strong with him, yeah. Stephen another all right. Hes got pi digits coming. Stephen well listen, you know, i have said many times before that youre my favorite guest. Well thank you, thank you. Stephen and you have cemented you have cemented that position tonight by showing up in this snowstorm. Yeah, well, its just snow. I mean stephen its just snow. Thats palm its just crystallized water. I mean, so what . Stephen i know how snow works. Im not the director of the Hayden Planetarium, but i know how snow works. People just freak out, like, its just snow. Stephen its cold its uncomfortable so what . laughter . Stephen well, okay, now, listen, this is our weather today in new york city. Yes. Stephen do other planets have snow or is that unique to earth . Well, theres plenty of weather on other planets but not quite snow. Like on mars, mars has polar ice caps that grow and shrink. Mars has seasons, like earth does. It rotates once about every 24 hours. Its tilted on its axis. It goes through northern hemisphere, summer and winter. And the caps the polar will grow and then shrink, and its made of Carbon Dioxide. It will transfer Carbon Dioxide from one pole to the other. Stephen its dry ice. Its simply dry ice. Stephen on halloween that must be so spoongy. You get that. And thats the only place. Theres a moon of saturn, called selenous. Stephen thats one of my faves. The phot rose really fantastic. There, there is heat down under. But its not like volcanic heat. It doesnt have to be. You just need enough meet heatto make something evaporate. And you have water there, under the surface stephen liquid water. Liquid water that bursts forth, and you have geysers. But thats not the fun part. The fun part is the moment the water hits the lowpressure air, atmosphere, it freeze instantly. Its a geyser hurling ice chunks, basically. And not only that. It spiewz forth with enough speed to escape the moon, and it has made a ring around saturn which we call the ering. It feeds the ring system of saturn. Its beautiful. Stephen that is beautiful. That is beautiful. Oh, yeah. laughter applause stephen thats almost you made that almost sound sex, neil tyson. And not to mention the big red spot on jupiter, which is an anticyclone has been going at least 300 years. The cyclone itself is bigger than earth. So earth weather is nothing compared torg planets. Im just saying. Stephen all right, all right. Lets talk about other planets not nonour system. People, including mierkz got very excite bade month ago it was announced that there are seven earthsized planets around a star named trappist one, about 40 lightyears away. About 40. Stephen how excited should we be . There are 70s planet, three in the goldilocks zone, not too hot, not too cold, just right. Not crystal. Whats beautiful is weve known about exo planets since 1995, the first one was discovered. Im trying to start a movement where anyone born since 1995, we shall deem generation exoplanet because theyve only known life with at a time when we know of other planets. So since then, we now have more than 3,000 in the catalog. So why should a few more matter . There are seven orbiting one star. Its the biggest star system weve found in three its goldie lock s. Stephen and not that far away from us. 40 lightyears. Youre still not going there, but its close. Stephen thats in the neighborhood. Its in the hood, yeah. Definitely in the needhood. Its there. Theres a problem. These plan rets working very close to their host star. Its not a hot star. So you can get really close. These stars are so close theyre tiedally locked. We have tideally locked our moon, and our moon only shows the same face to us. They are tideally locked by their host star. They only show one face to the host star. That side will be too holt to live in and the other side will be too cold. If you look for life it there, life as we know it, it would have to be along the edge. Stephen a ring of shadows . And you need like rotisserie homes so you can average out the cold and the hot to be the temperature you need. Stephen sure. Just get a home where you just set it and forget it. It will be interesting Science Fiction novel to explore that that frontier. Stephen another set me straight on this. It was this was about this time last year, it was announced that there was likely an exoplanet around pox muscenaary. Weve all heard of alpha centauri. Thats a star system stephen have we all heard of that . Alpha centauri. Of course, of course. Stephen sure. So youve got in that star system, the star that is closest among them to our sun is called proxima. And thatta han earthlike planet orbiting in its habitable zone, its goldie lock zone. The fastest spaceships weve ever made, if you straddle them and we aimed you in that direction, it would still take you 70,000 years to get there. So the closest star system is far beyond anything our human physiology stephen ive heard about the idea of sending up like hundreds of thousands of small probes project stephen like the size of your thumb with huge light sails that get accelerate accelerateds at a third of the speed of light and theyre there in 30 years. Why arent we doing it right now, neil . Theyre working on it right now. Stephen who . This is uri millener, the russian billionaire. Stephen yeah, sure. Who is one of the set of billionaires who likes space spaceand is putting their money where their mouth is. He wants to set up like thousands of these theyre called nanosatellites. Theyre thumbnailed size, attached to a huge sail, and you light up these gigawatt lasers here on earth. And you beam themue dont want planes flying through this. That would be bad. From the earths surface, you beam them up at these satellites and you can accelerate them basically 20 of the speed of light. They would get there in 20 years. They would contain cameras and telemetry stephen and do they act as solar collectors to provide power to send back information. You are beaming with 20 gigawatts thats a lot of power. Theyll have power. Theyll be fine. Theyll be fine pup get there close, and it beams a signal back. That only takes four years. Its a 25year stephen i could be alive for information come back from another star system. If you wear your seat belt, yes. Stephen well be right back with more Neil Degrasse tyson, stick around.

Enough ive tried enough laxatives to cover the eastern seaboard. Ive climbed a Mount Everest of fiber. Probiotics . Enough avo if youve had enough, tell your doctor what youve tried and how long youve been at it. Linzess works differently from laxatives. Linzess treats adults with ibs with constipation or chronic constipation. It can help relieve your belly pain, and lets you have more frequent and complete bowel movements that are easier to pass. Do not give linzess to children under six, and it should not be given to children six to less than eighteen. It may harm them. Dont take linzess if you have a bowel blockage. Get immediate help if you develop unusual or severe stomach pain, especially with bloody or black stools. The most common side effect is diarrhea, sometimes severe. If its severe stop taking linzess and call your doctor right away. Other side effects include gas, stomacharea pain and swelling. Talk to your doctor about managing your symptoms proactively with linzess. Because when it comes to great tasting water. Fill quickly and pour immediately, for great tasting water. Fast.

You do like a fine bottle of wine. I do, i do. I like to see who is doing better, me orthwein over the years you. Stephen only drink wine that was harvested the year you were born. I have a lot every now and then i check in and see stephen en and then you have less. And then i have less. And then one day we will meet at the grave with no wine gleft this is trapus. It looks like a frame from a teterous game. I didnt tell you to pull out that photo. Stephen its the only photo weve got. Its far away. Stephen lets talk about something closer to home that youre associated with that you got in trouble about is that you were on the group of people that was advising whether pluto should remain a planet many years ago, about 10plus years ago. Yeah, we we we voted we we laughter stephen we elite planet people we at the American Museum of natural history, when we redid our exhibit, we said pluto belongs here not there with his other icy brethren in the outer solar system. Stephen you took a lot of heat for that. Yes. I was an accessory to that decision stephen you almost said crime. You almost said crime. No, there are people like mike broan browne who discovered the objects in the out solar system that forced that vote. In fact, hes guilty. In fact his twitter handle is called pluto killer. He admits it. Stephen who is this mike brown youre throwing under the bus, under the space bus. He threw himself under the bus. Stephen now some of your buddies at nasa want to reinstate pluto as a planet because they want the designation of planet to be closer to peoples intuition, rather than some arbitrary scientific designation. Okay. They should just, like, get over it is what im saying. Stephen why do you think people want to name it a planet again. Pluto had it coming from the beginning. It never really belonged plutos orbit crosses that of another planet. Thats no kind of behavior for a planet. No stephen you have to stay in your lane . Stay in your lane stephen stay in your lane all right, okay. No our moon has five times the mass of pluto. So just stephen what . Just get over it. Stephen was our moon a planet . No, its a moon. laughter stephen all right. You have another picture. Stephen explain to me what this thing is right here. What is this . And what are we going to do with it . This is currently the Largest Telescope in the world. Its a Radio Telescope 500 meters across. That is so large, you could play 25 Football Games in the area of that of that telescope. And the aliens who are trying to talk to us, you can ask who the first people who are going to hear these aliens is the people running this telescope. Stephen who is running this telescope . China. Stephen okay. Why arent we running this telescope . Because we we lost our mojo. Stephen what. Mojo. Stephen thats a science term. Thats a stifng term. Year, the mojo the science mojo is this has never been done before. Were going to invest in it. And were going to be first at it. If you dont have those three pistons alined other people doll it. Thats the thing about science, it doesnt matter where it happens. It will happen somewhere pup dont own science. Science is for anyone who is curious and wants to invest there and right now the world is passing us by. applause . Stephen lets talk about i think scott pruitt, who is the new head of the e. P. A. , has said that he does not believe that audience booing . Stephen is it scott . Scott prosecute . No one knows his first name. He said he does not believe co2 is the control knob for Climate Change. What is the present concens of census on co2 and Climate Change. Its a greenhouse gas. Water is also a greenhouse vapor but thats sort of fixed in the atmosphere, at least for now. Yeah, so lately, people are just talking. I will act when they actually try to put legislation in to place. But people just talk. And i cant chase what people say because it flutters with the breeze. If he puts down some legislation that requires that everyone think that, oh oh, my gosh hold me back because then. cheers and applause no, no stephen reporter, ill hold you back. Ill hold you back. Get out of here hes going to blow hes a Crystal Geyser no, i can tell you something . In six weeks, i have a book coming out you. Stephen have a book coming out in six weeks. Its not out yet.
