and you can actually study the earth legitimately!
Anyone remember or hear about IGY International Geophysical Year (1957-1958)?

“NASA chief scientist Waleed Abdalati”

We are so screwed.

“We support open scientific inquiry and discussion,” NASA chief scientist Waleed Abdalati said

Waleed Abdalati is a liar.
"The debate is over."
"There is a consensus."
"Deniers! Flat-earthers!"

Waleed Abdalati can go play in the street. He's not fit to shine the shoes of any astronaut.

"But NASA responded on Wednesday by saying they don’t “draw conclusions and issue ‘claims’ about research findings.”
I bet if they where told they no longer can fund anything related to GISS, they would take a quick turn around in their thinking.

"He added: “NASA sponsors research into many areas of cutting-edge scientific inquiry, including the relationship between carbon dioxide and climate.”
Sure they do. Like Hansen changing raw data input into his useless programs when he sees fit to hide the declines.

...and proud of our government, too; even the President.

(Sigh!) Days long past, and most unlikely to return.

Antarctic ice cores. Ozone hole (Oops!) USS Nautilus to the North Pole. Van Allen Belts. Project MOHO.

Project MOHO?!?

Anyone hearing that today would think it was referring to a Hip-Hopper candidate’s political slogan. “Elect me mayor and I will enact Project MoHo: 2 B****s in every crib!”

Yes by the way if I remember correctly the Ozone studies then were correctly (as we know now!) attributing the fluctations in Ozone (the “hole”) to natural causes.

I thought MOHO was so so cool!

Let me guess NASA is now required by law to have to hire Muslims via affirmative action? Waleed Abdalati was hired on his merits or because he was Muslim? Do Muslims even believe there is an outter space in their 12th century mindset?

Hmm. Wasn't this one of their documented problems regarding warnings from Morton Thiokol engineers about launching Challenger in sub-zero temperatures?

I can't say I remember that issue. But I get where your coming from.
