What was said
"What would surprise me most is if they did bring out an alien and it was humanoid. Yes, that would— I was like, oh my God, that would blow your mind. Blow my mind."
On Piers Morgan Uncensored, astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson stated that discovering humanoid aliens would defy evolutionary biology and shock the scientific community more than any other possibility. Tyson argued that life on Earth shows most organisms look nothing like humans despite shared DNA, making true alien life likely incomprehensible in form. The comment challenges Hollywood's default portrayal of extraterrestrials.
