American astrophysicist and science communicator
Neil deGrasse Tyson appears nine times in the Epstein documents, almost exclusively cited in forwarded Huffington Post articles about his views on science and budget cuts. There is no evidence of personal correspondence, travel, or direct involvement with Epstein.
All nine mentions are in automated email forwards (House Oversight records from 2017) containing Huffington Post articles that quote Tyson's famous line about science being 'true whether or not you believe in it.' The emails discuss Trump's proposed budget cuts and private donors funding science, with Tyson's quote used as a framing device. No personal emails, flight logs, or direct Epstein communications were found.
Key Highlights
- •All 9 mentions are identical Huffington Post forwards, not personal correspondence
- •Tyson is quoted about science funding, never mentioned in relation to Epstein himself
- •Pattern suggests his name was used as an authority in political debates, not as a personal connection
- •No flight logs, court documents, or financial ties found
