Bill Nye, scientist/comedian/teacher/author, is a man with a mission. He's out to turn kids (and in
particular, kids of both genders and colors) on to the way cool wonders of science!

With his weekly, half-hour television series, "Disney Presents Bill Nye the Science Guy," he's letting kids know that science is not only cool, it's powerful. After all, "Science rules!"

Making science entertaining and accessible is something that Nye has been doing for most of his life. Humor runs rampant in his family - "we get together and just laugh for hours" - and his parents made
sure he knew the value of education.
