YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

According to Neil deGrasse Tyson, we should have had private space initiatives decades ago. In this video from Business Insider and StarTalk Radio, you’ll find out what the director of the Hayden Planetarium thinks is the right role for government, and why private enterprise will never lead us into space. Neil explains how and when the private sector can profit from space, drawing comparisons between NASA and the US Post Office, and the Dutch East India Company and SpaceX.
