Space2Sea Alumni—actor William Shatner and astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson— delivered an electrifying and wonderfully chaotic appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert
NEW YORK, June 11, 2025 ~ Seattle was in for a treat on Monday night as two iconic figures, actor William Shatner and astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson, made a dynamic appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. The duo gave audiences a taste of what's to come in their upcoming live stage event, ROCKING: The Universe is Absurd, presented by FUTURE of SPACE.

The banter between Shatner and Tyson was nothing short of electrifying and wonderfully chaotic. As Tyson jokingly described his role as needing to "rescue this man from his existential angst about the Universe," Shatner responded with sharp wit and boundless energy that left host Stephen Colbert happily taking a backseat into what he called the "Shatner Zone."

The conversation took unexpected turns, from discussing the fluid dynamics of penguin poop to delving into ancient spirituality, animism, and the nature of consciousness. This is just a glimpse of the "cosmic banter" that audiences can expect at ROCKING: The Universe is Absurd – a journey that connects the dots between science and spirituality, humor and profundity.

According to Daniel Fox, Co-founder of FUTURE of SPACE, watching Shatner and Tyson together is an electric experience. He describes them as the ultimate yin and yang – one bringing cosmic wonder while the other brings razor-sharp reason. Their unscripted chemistry is what makes this show so special – entertaining yet enlightening.

Tristan Tanovan-Fox, CEO of FUTURE of SPACE, echoes this sentiment by stating that the energy present on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert is exactly why they created this show. Putting two captivating thinkers on stage and letting their genuine curiosity lead the way results in thought-provoking conversations. As Tanovan-Fox puts it, "the biggest, most absurd questions are often the most entertaining and important ones to ask."

Even Colbert himself couldn't help but praise the riveting chemistry between Shatner and Tyson, calling it "out of this world." And with only one night to catch this show in Seattle, audiences won't want to miss out on the magic that is ROCKING: The Universe is Absurd.

Tickets for the event, taking place on Wednesday, June 18, 2025 at McCaw Hall, are available exclusively on ticketmaster.com. Don't miss your chance to witness the cosmic banter between these two brilliant minds. For more information, visit https://rockingwithbillandneil.com.
