We can all be very happy that we had a chance to be with him, and to know him, and to love him a lot when he was here.” As I get older, accepting death becomes more and more valuable.

"content": "\u003cp>You probably know Neil deGrasse Tyson as an astrophysicist with a seemingly endless stream of science fun facts at his command. You might not be aware that he is also a great oenophile and lover of food.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some 16 years ago, before I was a journalist and illustrator, I worked with Neil at the American Museum of Natural History. He would sometimes carry around a small canvas tote bag. As I recall, the bag would contain one of two things: either a weighty, mango-sized meteorite to show to guests of the museum, or a bottle of wine to gift to a colleague.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was pretty symbolic of his twin passions – the heavens, and wine. (By extension, that includes cuisine.) I recently talked with NdGT about how these all collide in the kitchen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On how general, broad knowledge of scientific concepts is useful in the kitchen ...\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>-The lower-than-32-degrees freezing point of liquids that contain alcohol, like wine, allows you to chill a bottle of white wine to sub-freezing temperatures without it freezing, before you bring it a dinner party. The wine warms up during the travel time to just the right temperature in time for dinner.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>-When emptying water from a narrow-necked bottle after cleaning it, the water will exit the bottle about twice as fast if you swirl it, tornado style. Swirling water creates a path in its center for air to replace the water that's leaving the bottle. Without it, the water from an inverted bottle must glug its way out, taking turns with pulses of air that move in to replace the water that has left the bottle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>-If you take a pint of rock-solid ice cream from the freezer and put it in the refrigerator, the temperature difference between the ice cream and the surrounding air will be much less than if you put it on the counter. This slows down the rate at which the ice cream gets warmer, allowing the entire pint to change temperature at a uniform rate. After an hour or so, the ice cream is at a perfect temperature throughout. Whereas, had the pint been left on the counter, the edges get melty first while the center stays solid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On what aliens on other planets might eat ...\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Except for salt, everything we eat that has nutritional value was once alive, or was secreted by something that was alive. On the face of it, that's quite barbaric — we all kill living organisms for our nourishment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ultimate source of all that energy is the Sun. Maybe aliens bypass the middle-man and get their energy directly from their host star, via photosynthesis, or some other method we have yet to divine. In that way, they don't have to kill anything to survive. What would we look like to them?\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_110932\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/neiltyson1_enl-76a9efd19824359e96da56c0bf2bb3e7a344fad1.jpg\" alt=\"Neil Degrasse Tyson Food Guide\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1499\" class=\"size-full wp-image-110932\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/neiltyson1_enl-76a9efd19824359e96da56c0bf2bb3e7a344fad1.jpg 2000w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/neiltyson1_enl-76a9efd19824359e96da56c0bf2bb3e7a344fad1-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/neiltyson1_enl-76a9efd19824359e96da56c0bf2bb3e7a344fad1-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/neiltyson1_enl-76a9efd19824359e96da56c0bf2bb3e7a344fad1-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/neiltyson1_enl-76a9efd19824359e96da56c0bf2bb3e7a344fad1-1440x1079.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/neiltyson1_enl-76a9efd19824359e96da56c0bf2bb3e7a344fad1-1180x884.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/07/neiltyson1_enl-76a9efd19824359e96da56c0bf2bb3e7a344fad1-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Neil Degrasse Tyson Food Guide \u003ccite>(Beth Lebwohl)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On how he would entertain\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> Isaac Newton, Albert Einstein and Carl Sagan \u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>if they were all having dinner together ...\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I would cook dinner for them myself and serve my finest wines across many courses of food, sampling many different dishes that will include pasta, rice, corn, fish, fowl, lamb, beef, and pork, followed by fruit and a cheese platter. Newton will ask if I am king of my country. And I will reply that farming and food distribution has come a long way since his day.

You might not be aware that he is also a great oenophile and lover of food.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some 16 years ago, before I was a journalist and illustrator, I worked with Neil at the American Museum of Natural History. He would sometimes carry around a small canvas tote bag. As I recall, the bag would contain one of two things: either a weighty, mango-sized meteorite to show to guests of the museum, or a bottle of wine to gift to a colleague.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was pretty symbolic of his twin passions – the heavens, and wine. (By extension, that includes cuisine.) I recently talked with NdGT about how these all collide in the kitchen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On how general, broad knowledge of scientific concepts is useful in the kitchen ...\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>-The lower-than-32-degrees freezing point of liquids that contain alcohol, like wine, allows you to chill a bottle of white wine to sub-freezing temperatures without it freezing, before you bring it a dinner party. The wine warms up during the travel time to just the right temperature in time for dinner.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Swirling water creates a path in its center for air to replace the water that's leaving the bottle. Without it, the water from an inverted bottle must glug its way out, taking turns with pulses of air that move in to replace the water that has left the bottle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>-If you take a pint of rock-solid ice cream from the freezer and put it in the refrigerator, the temperature difference between the ice cream and the surrounding air will be much less than if you put it on the counter. This slows down the rate at which the ice cream gets warmer, allowing the entire pint to change temperature at a uniform rate. After an hour or so, the ice cream is at a perfect temperature throughout. Whereas, had the pint been left on the counter, the edges get melty first while the center stays solid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On what aliens on other planets might eat ...\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Except for salt, everything we eat that has nutritional value was once alive, or was secreted by something that was alive.

Maybe aliens bypass the middle-man and get their energy directly from their host star, via photosynthesis, or some other method we have yet to divine.

He was 81.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Marshall died Tuesday in at a hospital in Burbank, Calif., of complications from pneumonia after having a stroke, his publicist Michelle Bega said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The director also had an on-screen presence, using his New York accent and gruff delivery in colorful supporting roles that included a practical-minded casino boss unswayed by Albert Brooks’ disastrous luck in\u003cem> Lost in America\u003c/em> and a crass network executive in \u003cem>Soapdish\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A great, great guy and the best casino boss in the history of film,” actor-filmmaker Brooks posted on Twitter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Henry Winkler, who starred as Fonzie on \u003ci>Happy Days\u003c/i>, saluted Marshall in a tweet as “larger than life, funnier than most, wise and the definition of friend.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Richard Gere, who starred opposite Julia Roberts in \u003cem>Pretty Woman\u003c/em>, said in a statement that “everyone loved Garry. He was a mentor and a cheerleader and one of the funniest men who ever lived. He had a heart of the purest gold and a soul full of mischief. He was Garry.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Marshall, brother of actress-director Penny Marshall, earned a degree in journalism from Northwestern University and worked at the New York Daily News. But he found he was better at writing punchlines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In the neighborhood where we grew up in, the Bronx, you only had a few choices,” Marshall said in a 1980s interview. “You were either an athlete or a gangster, or you were funny.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He began his entertainment career in the 1960s selling jokes to comedians, then moved to writing sketches for \u003cem>The Tonight Show\u003c/em> with Jack Paar in New York. He caught the eye of comic Joey Bishop, who brought him to Los Angeles to write for \u003cem>The Joey Bishop Show\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sitcoms quickly proved to be Marshall’s forte. He and then-writing partner Jerry Belson turned out scripts for the most popular comedies of the ’60s, including \u003cem>The Lucy Show\u003c/em>, \u003cem>The Danny Thomas Show\u003c/em> and \u003cem>The Dick Van Dyke Show\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Marshall and Belson detoured into screenwriting in 1967 with \u003cem>How Sweet It Is\u003c/em>, starring Debbie Reynolds, and followed it up with \u003cem>The Grasshoppers\u003c/em> (1970) with Jacqueline Bisset. But the two men kept their hand in TV.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 1970, they turned Neil Simon’s Broadway hit, \u003cem>The Odd Couple\u003c/em>, into a sitcom starring Jack Klugman and Tony Randall and produced by Marshall. It ran for five seasons and proved the beginning of a TV sitcom empire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In January 1979, Marshall had three of the top five comedies on the air with \u003cem>Happy Days\u003c/em>, which ran from 1974-84; \u003cem>Laverne & Shirley \u003c/em>(1976-83), which starred Penny Marshall and Cindy Williams, and \u003cem>Mork and Mindy\u003c/em> (1978-82) with newcomer Robin Williams.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Critics have knocked me for targeting society’s lowest common denominator,” he said in his 1995 autobiography, \u003cem>Wake Me When It’s Funny\u003c/em>, written with his daughter, Lori Marshall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I believe that television was, and still is, the only medium that can truly reach society’s lowest common denominator and entertain those people who maybe can’t afford a movie or a play.

He was Garry.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Marshall, brother of actress-director Penny Marshall, earned a degree in journalism from Northwestern University and worked at the New York Daily News. But he found he was better at writing punchlines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In the neighborhood where we grew up in, the Bronx, you only had a few choices,” Marshall said in a 1980s interview. “You were either an athlete or a gangster, or you were funny.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He began his entertainment career in the 1960s selling jokes to comedians, then moved to writing sketches for \u003cem>The Tonight Show\u003c/em> with Jack Paar in New York.
