Default Neil DeGrasse Tyson headed down same loony road as Carl Sagan?

They call it the blue marble, the first time people took a picture of the fully illuminated face of the Earth around the December Solstice and a specific location in the Earth's annual orbit -

None of you feel pride in the dynamic which causes the South Pole to turn across the fully illuminated face of the Earth parallel to the orbital plane so the great engineering achievement of the Apollo missions is no longer backed-up with astronomical achievement that the Earth has a distinct surface rotation of the entire surface arising from its orbital motion.

Many mouth platitudes about the wonder of creation but don't feel anything.
