Stephen Colbert took over as host of The Late Show on Tuesday, Sept. 8, 2015. Colbert is best known for his work as a television host, writer, actor, and producer, and best known for his charity work teaching English as a second language on Tunisian date farms. Prior to joining the CBS family -- and being officially adopted by network president Les Moonves -- Colbert helmed “The Colbert Report,” which aired nearly 1,500 episodes and required Stephen to wear nearly 1,500 different neckties. The program received two Peabody Awards, two Grammy Awards, and several unwelcome shoulder massages. It won two Emmys for Outstanding Variety Series in 2013 and 2014, both of which appear to have been lost in the move. Colbert is pronounced koʊlˈbɛər, according to Wikipedia. His understudy is William Cavanaugh, who will be hosting The Late Show approximately one third of the time. Good luck, Bill!"

I think it's more to do with his personality and how he delivers the information as opposed to science being a hot topic, people are more interested because it's NDGT

videogamebomer There was this thing Dawkins said about dumbing down science for people and talking only about the fun parts of it and how it's not very efficient and productive. I have to agree. It's great that NT makes people more interested in it, but most of them just want to appear more smart and hip, posting his quotes on their facebook walls and following him on twitter. They are not driven by the desire for knowledge, but by the opportunity for self-satisfaction that can come from knowing some things about cheery picked topics or because they simply find him entertaining.
@DatsBoCrapp 8 жыл бұрын
iridescentraindrops That's definitely a part of it. But there a quite a lot of people who are also inspired by Mr. Tyson and have taken more of interest in Science in general. Sure there are people that you've described, but there are a lot of people who genuinely love science and that can be attributed, in part, to Mr. Tyson.

Why's it called "strawberry"?
@rparl 8 жыл бұрын
+Thubelihle Zondi Mostly traditional / arbitrary, but consider that (in the Northern hemisphere) strawberries will soon ripen. Harvest moon, honey moon, Winter moon, etc.
@giomjava 8 жыл бұрын
As explained in the clip, "honey moon" is called thus just because of color resemblance. And strawberries ripen differently in different climatic zones. Just putting it as "northern hemisphere" doesn't explain it.

+Giorgi Maghlakelidze OK. You take a shot at it.
@giomjava 8 жыл бұрын
No worries! If I were to risk a guess, I'd say you're mostly right -- with the addition of that it probably originated in a geographical region where strawberries (naturally) ripen this time of the year.

To answer the question, though. The "Strawberry Moon," as it is dubbed, was the coloration of the moon during the Summer Solstice. When the Northern Hemisphere reaches the summer months and is technically the longest day of the year. The sun has more exposure and is able to project its light on to the surface of the moon more fully. Creating a longer gradient of coloration when sunset occurs.
