Astrophysicist Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson is Director of the Hayden Planetarium in New York and a widely known celebrity scientist.

He’s also a dyed-in-the-wool climate guy.

Dr. Tyson tweeted out what he thought was a safe homily about “settled science” until of all things, a frozen steak sandwich took him down.

[Tyson tweeted](https://twitter.com/steak%5Fumm?lang=en&ref=goodoil.news):

Only to have his fallacy forcefully confronted by the sandwich meat Steak-umm!

Steak-umm unleashed a torrent of good sense in support of open-minded, ever inquisitive, SCIENCE and Steak-umm rose to the challenge. Apparently Steak-umm has been out of patience with Tyson’s pompous recitations of the indefensible notion of “settled science” for years!

Steak-umm also revealed a pretty sharp understanding of the scientific method and scientific integrity (for a luncheon meat).

[Head over to Twitter](https://twitter.com/steak%5Fumm?lang=en&ref=goodoil.news) and let Steak-umm and Neil deGrasse Tyson know that you support open, fearless, data-driven scientific inquiry.

Then head out to the frozen foods section and support Steak-umm with the preparation of your choice. CFACT recommends a cheese, mushroom onion Philly steak bomb with sauteed salami for extra bombiness.
