YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

A fan asks if Modified Newtonian Dynamics, a theory that attempts to explain the missing mass in the Universe without resorting to the existence of dark matter, is credible, or is it pseudoscience? To answer this Cosmic Query, Neil deGrasse Tyson explains MOND, as astrophysicists call it, to co-host Chuck Nice, touching on dark matter, dark gravity, and Newton’s Laws. But is it pseudoscience? No spoilers here: watch and learn for yourself.
