Revered astrophysicist Neil Degrasse Tyson has scolded rockers Pink Floyd for creating the myth of the dark side of the moon.
The boffin admits he’s often asked about the title of the band’s 1973 album, and he’d like to state once and for all it doesn’t exist.
“There is no dark side of the moon,” Tyson tells The Hollywood Reporter. “There’s a far side and there’s a near, but all sides of the moon receive sunlight across the month.
“The fact that Pink Floyd had an album with that title means I had to spend decades to undo that (fact) as an educator.”
