Neil DeBuck Weasel has a cameo in the Ice Age five animated series. The animals deflect an asteroid that is headed their way. They prevent their own space. It's sort of been done. I mean, this sounds like an amazing Pixar movie. Like should we pitch the dinosaur with dinosaurs with NASA? Right.
Neil has his own asteroid?! On this episode, Neil deGrasse Tyson and comic co-host Marcia Belsky answer fan questions about different types of asteroids with Marina Brozovic, orbital dynamicist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
