Watch: Neil deGrasse Tyson destroys Trump’s Space Force on Colbert

Comedian Stephen Colbert interviewed Astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson during his show on Thursday night. Colbert mocked President Donald Trump for wanting to create a Space Force. "People make fun of it, I among them," Colbert said.

"Why do we need the Space Force," Colbert asked Tyson.

"Just because it came out of Trump's mouth doesn't' require it be a crazy thing," Tyson said.

"It doesn't help," Colbert joked.

"We have a Space Force, and it's called the United States Space Command, and it's under the office of the Air Force," Tyson said.
