Neil deGrasse Tyson

Awesome astronomer physicist guy, often crops up making powerful statements and inspiring us to be more enthusiastic about science and the cosmos.
I first came across him when watching Beyond Belief. He's since been featured in Symphony of Science videos also, and is revered by atheists online for his humour and ability to inspire awe.
