  • The universe is vast and incredibly complex, yet its fundamental principles can be understood in a straightforward manner. Tyson emphasizes that curiosity and inquiry are essential to grasping the wonders of astrophysics and our place within the cosmos.
  • Time and space are intertwined, creating a fabric known as spacetime, which is shaped by the mass of objects. This concept of general relativity reveals how gravity influences the motion of planets and even the path of light.
