Our guest today is Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson. Dr. Tyson serves as the Frederick P. Rose Director of the Hayden Planetarium at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City. He holds a PhD in astrophysics from Columbia University and has published extensively in both scholarly journals and the popular press.

Dr. Tyson is the host of the long-running science podcast and radio show StarTalk, and he is perhaps best known to general audiences as the host of Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey, the acclaimed sequel to Carl Sagan’s original series. His books — including Astrophysics for People in a Hurry, Death by Black Hole, and Letters from an Astrophysicist — have become New York Times bestsellers and have brought complex scientific ideas to millions of readers.

Neil has served on two U.S. government commissions focusing on the future of the aerospace industry and space exploration policy and was appointed to NASA's Advisory Council in 2006. Dr. Tyson has dedicated his career to making science accessible, engaging, and culturally relevant, playing a leading role in science education and outreach.

Our guest today is Dr. Beth Shapiro. Dr. Shapiro is the Chief Science Officer at Colossal Biosciences and an evolutionary biologist who specializes in the genetics of ice age animals and plants. As Professor of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at UC Santa Cruz and Howard Hughes Medical Institute Investigator, Beth uses DNA recovered from bones and other remains to study how species evolved through time and how human activities have affected and continue to affect this dynamic process. Her work focuses on organisms ranging from influenza to mammoths, asking questions about domestication, admixture, speciation, and pathogen evolution. Her current work develops techniques to recover increasingly trace amounts of DNA such as from environmental and forensic samples. A 2009 MacArthur Fellow, Dr. Shapiro is also an award-winning popular science author and communicator who uses her research as a platform to explore the potential of genomic technologies for conservation and medicine.

Our guest today is Dr. Soyeon Yi. Dr. Yi is South Korea's first and only astronaut. In December 2006, Dr. Yi emerged victorious from a pool of over 36,000 candidates to become South Korea's first astronaut. On April 8, 2008, she embarked on an 11-day mission to the International Space Station, on the Russian Soyuz. During her groundbreaking mission, Dr. Yi conducted numerous experiments that later contributed to South Korean science textbooks and television lectures. Her return to Earth on April 19, 2008, was quite dramatic. She endured a challenging ballistic re-entry, experiencing gravitational forces of 8Gs and a very bumpy landing, 260 miles off-course in the middle of the Kazakhstan steppes. She, along with crew mate Peggy Whitson and Yuri Malenchenko found themselves being greeted by nomads, instead of the proper landing crew. Dr. Yi's career has been marked by significant contributions to both business and education. She has held multiple leadership roles and is currently an advisor to BORYUNG, a South Korean healthcare and space investment company.
