YouTube Description
as posted by the channelImagine what a baseball game would look like on Mars! Astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson and comedian Chuck Nice figure that the field would have to be around 40 percent bigger due to the lesser gravity on Mars. How will the ball act differently? With a thinner atmosphere than Earth, it would be harder to throw a curveball, and the ball would cross the plate at a faster speed than it would on our home planet. Chuck finds it impressive that Neil knows so much about Baseball, and they decide what the Martian team should be named.
