Social work at NASA

NASA's luster began to fade when it started in on the religious chant of global warming, global warming, global warming. Twenty years ago a spokesman for NASA snorted and said that there was no global warming, and that was before the fifteen-year cooling period that even Phil Jones, the utterly discredited liar at the University of East Anglia, admits we're in right now. So NASA is going along with the AGW scam. This is galling for anyone or anything. It is particularly irritating when it's an agency which is supposed to be dedicated to science. It's a bit like finding out that your surgeon, the kind Dr. Smith, is really Hannibal Lecter.
In keeping with his policy of destroying everything proud and good about America, Barack Obowma first killed our space exploration and then he nominated General Charles Bolden to be NASA's administrator.
General Bolden gives us this:
When I became the NASA administrator -- or before I became the NASA administrator -- he (Obama) charged me with three things. One was he wanted me to help re-inspire children to want to get into science and math, he wanted me to expand our international relationships, and third, and perhaps foremost, he wanted me to find a way to reach out to the Muslim world and engage much more with dominantly Muslim nations to help them feel good about their historic contribution to science ... and math and engineering,
Just what Muslim contribution to science is there? Please, someone, tell me. There was a hint of a Muslim Renaissance with Averroes and some other Muslim thinkers, but that died out nearly a thousand years ago. Had they kept it up, Europe would no doubt have been Muslim. As it is, there is no contribution to Muslim science.
NASA has no business in making any people feel good about themselves. Their business is getting payloads into orbit, and science is notably uncaring about the feelings of the people it interacts with.
But then why not make Muslims feel good about themselves? Let NASA develop a new jet cockpit which doesn't even require flying lessons in Phoenix.

We could teach them all how to take off in an aircraft.
I don't think they need to learn how to land.
