Did Neil DeGrasse Tyson Just Break the Internet?

Renowned scientist Neil DeGrasse Tyson may have just done something that no one's been able to do: put the accepted orthodoxy of the internet on its head. He may have beaten out Kim Kardashian as the person able to get the internet to jump to his whim, even though he is "just" an award winning physicist and television host.

Observe this stunner:

Obama authorized North Korea sanctions over cyber hacking. Solution there, it seems to me, is to create unhackable systems.

Watch the reaction even from Conservative circles:
