YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

When a fan asks about investment in STEM education, Bill Nye, CEO of the Planetary Society, points out that if we had a robust space exploration program, we wouldn't need to run around screaming about funding STEM. As comic co-host Eugene Mirman says, "science trickles down." Guest astronaut Mike Massimino talks about the science objectives of his two shuttle flights to repair the Hubble Space Telescope, including the discovery of dark matter.
