National Universal treasure, star of Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey, and Frederick P.

Recently, he sat down with Tech Insider to discuss how and why humans have a difficult time perceiving the vastness of our universe.

Here are just a few pieces of science NGT drops in the video below:

• “We don’t have an intuitive sense of how deep time really goes.”
• “If the sun were hollow you could pour a million Earths inside of it.”
• “There are more molecules in a cup of water than there are cups of water in the oceans of the world.”
