I get the feeling she doesn't even know what she's talking about:

That is the funniest thing I have seen this week.

Cringingly funny!

So many awkward silences... Amazing. The fact the 2 presenters were clearly enjoying themselves tells you all you need to know.

listen to her, she knows exactly what she's talking about,

"no, it's not that this light is moving slower than our light, it's that this light is really far away, so it takes a long time for us to see it, but it's the same light, you would see this light from anywhere, and it is the first light, because before it, for the first 400,000 years, light wasn't travelling in a straight line, it was kind of jumping around and such, we know this because we are scientists, and we can't see light unless it is travelling in a straight line!"

what if that light is just the headlight of one giant colonoscopy camera dug deep into an anus of a larger being?

what would that make us?

Perhaps an one hour and half lecture was more informative, but did not fit

Ha! that is my buddy Joe's father, Dr. Paul Steinhardt! Great dude.

that cheeky stupid old bastard looked like he thought he zinged her at the end.

earth to cheeky stupid old bastard: you didn't.

OMG ...

Even I know this. This is a picture of what is called Cosmic Background Microwave radiation.

But who cares she made lots of other errors. If she's the science advisor for this channel she needs to be replaced. (She'll easily qualify for another job on Fox news tho). What a twit.
