I'm fucking shocked he lived so long and yet his death is still a surprise.

Neil DeGrasse Tyson is the favourite.
Bill Nye is the opportunist who will likely make a move.
Brian Cox is the rightful choice.

 

[Y2K Baby]

Brian Cox is the rightful choice.

Elon Musk isn't obnoxious either.

Well, Bill Nye does save the world. If only he was disabled or black. I think Tyson will probably be the winner.

Elon Musk isn't obnoxious either.

He's a bit of a try hard in my opinion, but I could see some go worship him. He already has a massive cult following amongst the engineer types after all.

See you, space wheelchair-bound cowboy...

 

[millais]

I wonder how will take it. He has a long standing (but one sided) internet feud with Hawking. I guess we will find out in this evening's broadcast

RIP in pastrami, wheelchair science man

Being a gimp is no way to go through life, but talk about making lemonade...

 

[Pablo Birmingham]

And he was so close to becoming full cyborg. Who will create the new master race now?

Tyson is rapidly disappearing up his own asshole and Nye is a proven hack. There's going to be a dark void in popular science for quite a long time.

Seriously though

And he was so close to becoming full cyborg. Who will create the new master race now?

He might have faked his death in order to finish his work on the prototype borg body and hivemind he'll use from now on, far off in the stars and shit

Tyson's only claim to fame was shit talking Pluto. The more he tried to be like Carl Sagan, the more apparent it was he's not.

 

[Someone in a Tree]

They're just bitter and angry that they're useless breathers who will never accomplish anything, not even making someone laugh (except maybe at them).

A few of them are also complaining that he was a bad husband, somehow overlooking that his condition brings with it a metric fuckload of baggage. I guess they think that they would handle having ALS more gracefully than he did.

Breaking news, man with 95% body paralysis may not be able to help out with housework or satisfy his wife.

WTF do these people expect?

One of my favorite books is A Brief History of Time. I have one of older editions with the Carl Sagan introduction intact. It's a great book, I highly recommend it.

Spoiler: The truth of their hate may shock you

He was a WHITE MALE
