Neil deGrasse Tyson Quotes:
Ocupation: Astrophysicist
Life: b. October 5, 1958
Birthday: October 5
And I don't care what else anyone has ever told you, the Sun is white, not yellow. Human color perception is a complicated business, but if the Sun were yellow, like a yellow lightbulb, then white stuff such as snow would reflect this light and appear yellow-a snow condition confirmed to happen only near fire hydrants.
