That trash heap has been demeaning real scientists (e.g., that well-regarded SETI scientist Jill Tarter, 40 years dedicated to detecting extraterrestrial life with intense rigor!) while claiming he’s being persecuted (“bullied”) by the real scientists when anyone points out he’s making shit up to pretend it’s aliens. He pumps shit, he does it for attention, he somehow still is head of the harvard astro dept so he uses that for clout with the news orgs and get his bullshit published, but he’s just dragging real, decades-long work and public trust in the scientific community, especially Astronomy/astrophysics, through the shitter just so he can feel special or some bullshit. Fuck that guy

oh shit it's that guy, I didn't even notice

This is a really good video (and great channel) for anyone who doesn't know https://youtu.be/aY985qzn7oI
