    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-842?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16912398#comment-16912398 ] 

Joris Van den Bossche commented on ARROW-842:
---------------------------------------------

Updated example from ARROW-6305 that shows the NaT problem if it is passed as a scalar:

{code}
In [6]: pa.array([pd.Timestamp("2012-01-01"), pd.NaT]) 
Out[6]: 
<pyarrow.lib.TimestampArray object at 0x7f46c8368780>
[
  2012-01-01 00:00:00.000000,
  0001-01-01 00:00:00.000000
]
{code}
