DENVER — American astrophysicist, author, actor and science communicator Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson is returning to Colorado this autumn.
"Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson: Cosmic Perspective" will stop at Denver's Paramount Theatre on Tuesday, Nov. 12.
"There is no view of the world as emotionally potent as the one granted by a cosmic perspective," organizers shared in a statement. "It’s one that sees Earth as a planet in a vast empty universe. It profoundly influences what we think and feel about science, culture, politics and life itself."
Tickets to see Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson are priced from $50 to $305 and are subject to additional fees. Tickets will be available for purchase beginning Friday, Feb. 9, at 10 a.m. at ParamountDenver.com.
Tyson is the recipient of 21 honorary doctorates and the NASA Distinguished Public Service Medal, the highest award given by NASA to a non-government citizen.
Tyson was also voted “Sexiest Astrophysicist Alive” by People Magazine in 2000.
The astrophysicist has served as the television host of "Cosmos: A SpaceTime Odyssey" and "Cosmos: Possible Worlds."
