The television celebrity "Astronomer" Neil Tyson, who is supposedly a PhD Astrophysicist, loves spewing nonsense to laymen who fawn over his every word no matter how ridiculously absurd he gets.

Anyone who thinks the analogy of a NASCAR race bears any resemblance to what a retrograde actually is is either totally ignorant or a complete idiot.

Tyson's analogy falls to pieces by simply going to Wikipedia much less opening the free online app Stellarium and actually looking up a Mercury retrograde.

But Neil Tyson is not out there for the benefit of people interested in astronomy, he's a paid propagandist and nothing he says should ever be taken seriously. He's in it for the money!

btw
If you think the Earth is flat you're dumber than Tyson is!
