Seattle space fans are in for a cosmic treat as two cultural icons — astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson and “Star Trek” actor William Shatner — team up for the live event “The Universe is Absurd,” hosted by media company Future of Space.
“It’s raw, it’s wry, and it’s surprisingly human — a glimpse into what happens when two brilliant minds forget the audience is listening,” the company said in an advertisement.
Scheduled to hit Seattle as a one-night-only event, the online bromance between Shatner and Tyson in McCaw Hall promises an evening of big questions, bold ideas, and plenty of laughter, all centered around our place within the universe.
