After taking his usual monologue tour through the depressingly ignorant mundanity of life in Trump world on Friday, Stephen Colbert was clearly delighted to welcome back a guy whose seemingly irrepressible capacity for seeing the big picture has made him Colbert’s all-time most-invited guest. Physicist, ambassador for reason, and occasional sci-fi killjoy Neil deGrasse Tyson has sat down with with Colbert more times than anyone, both on The Late Show and on his old Comedy Central stomping grounds. (Bite it, distant second-place finisher, John Oliver.) The pair sparred playfully—Colbert really wants that recent, cigar-shaped interstellar visitor named ʻOumuamua to be an alien spaceship, while Tyson gently disabused him of the idea with some of those facts and scientific principles he’s so in love with. Killjoy.
