Neil deGrasse Tyson to host sequel to Carl Sagan's Cosmos

This should be pretty exciting news to any Carl Sagan fans and/or science nerds out there. Astrophysicist (and non-believer) Neil deGrasse Tyson is signed on to host Cosmos: A Personal Voyage, which will be developed by Ann Druyan and Steve Soter, both of whom worked on the original Cosmos, along with Family Guy creator (and fellow atheist) Seth McFarlane. The new Cosmos will air in primetime on FOX, which is pretty much unprecedented for a science documentary series, with encore airings on the National Geographic Channel, which will help produce the series.
There’s only one downside to this story, though: you’ll have to wait ‘til 2013 to see it.
