Renowned astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson has publicly expressed his admiration for the skateboarding community, highlighting its remarkable diversity and unity among its members.

Tyson, who has contributed to astrophysics and science communication, went on the Skatepark Project social media page interview to share his thoughts on the often underestimated world of skateboarding.

The astrophysicist's unexpected endorsement of skateboarding sheds light on the multidimensional aspects of communities that might appear niche at first glance.

Skateboarding, often associated with counter-culture movements and urban subcultures, has evolved into a global phenomenon with a thriving and inclusive community.

Tyson's endorsement of skateboarding underscores the importance of acknowledging the rich tapestry of human interests and the connections that can be made across seemingly unrelated disciplines.
