Useful Twitter Account of the Week: @neiltyson

He’s everybody’s favorite astrophysicist, and he tweets like a pro. He’s Neil deGrasse Tyson (@neiltyson), and he’s my pick for this week’s useful Twitter account to follow.

Not many people can make science “cool” – Bill Nye, Dr. Frankenstein and Dr. Emmett Brown come to mind. But even among these science elites, Neil deGrasse Tyson stands out. He’s making the science of the stars approachable, and his tweets prove that genius doesn’t have to be for the fringes.
