NASA resort to Space Science (or any other Real Science) instead of drumming up fake reports of climate science?
That's just crazy talk.

Space travel is a fantasy. They've figured out that humans really don't do well physically the more time they spend in space ... and then, the cosmic rays will get you.

None of these physical problems are remotely fixable at present, even though god knows, they've tried to ameliorate the bone thinning, muscle weakness and cardiovascular deconditioning by strapping people tightly against treadmills with bands to exercise (though that does nothing for the dizziness, brain swelling, and other problems). And they've blown off even trying to shield space travelers from cosmic rays as scientifically impossible. Also, they have no ingenious ideas for future trials.

Well, lookee there...something we both agree on.

We might make it to Mars once, but we ain't getting out of this solar system unless we get handed the tech by aliens or something.

We need to focus on fixing the PEOPLE on this planet more than ANYTHING.

I do hope that we're continuing to make NASA remind all those Muslim nations how great their contributions to science are and to help them feel better about themselves !!

If everybody is agreeing, does that kill the thread?

Is This Trump's way of bringing everybody together?

Have you one of those handy linkys for fleshing out your comment?

Handy linkys:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_alphabet
"The history of alphabetic writing goes back to the consonantal
writing system used for Semitic languages in the Levant in the 2nd
millennium BCE. Most or nearly all alphabetic scripts used throughout
the world today ..."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_mathematics
"The most ancient mathematical texts available are Plimpton 322
(Babylonian c. 1900 BC), the Rhind Mathematical Papyrus (Egyptian
c. 2000–1800 BC) and the Moscow Mathematical Papyrus (Egyptian
c. 1890 BC). All of these texts concern the so-called Pythagorean
theorem, which seems to be the most ancient and widespread math-
ematical development after basic arithmetic and geometry."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cradle_of_civilization
"The cradle of civilization refers to locations where, according
to current archaeological data, civilization is understood to have
emerged. Current thinking is that there was no single "cradle",
but several civilizations that developed independently, with the
Fertile Crescent (Mesopotamia and Ancient Egypt) understood to be
the earliest. Other civilizations arose" ...

Oonj sayeth: Other civilizations arose concurrently in Asia &
America.
Fairly advanced cultures in both North & South America flourished
for centuries ... then fell into ruin. I don't know why.

They lacked horse-power, could be a drag.



... oooOO}{OOooo ...

The climate has changed and some of this change has been man-made

...in regard to culture, history, religion
I have come to the conslusion that islam, is a horrible religious political cult system founded by an insane war mongering pedophile slaver named mohammed...and that the 'islamic golden age' is highly over-rated

Climate Science is Real, to say it is Fake is both ignorant and stupid....however that is not to say there are poltical aghendas running, some deny mankind can pollute the enviornment, while others over-exaggerate the problem creating a hyped up doomsday tomorrow type scenario

So how did the Western world, United States of America, Europe, the USA, the Western European culture get so far ahead when all these ancient cultures knew so much. The basica European is said to have come from an ancient upright man...who was once monkey...an upright man with tools and language from Africa? maybe North Africa into the Middle East, into India, the Cacuss maountains of Asia, South Russia, into mainland Europe. They are Iceage peoples born of hardships during the last Great Climate Change? Born during the last Ice Ages as the Missoula Floods and giant Glacial Seas burst ripping open holes in the lands, a time Geologists refer to the Great Anicent Ages of Ice and Snow and Anicent Cataclysmic floods.

So in ancient times cilivsation knew many things, Europe was still barbarian, running around with spears, bones, tibal, hunting....yet in the Far East Asia, in parts of India, Assyrian land, Mesopotamia,
Babylon, Egyptian land, China people were using science, building temples, using math, creating devices...and in Europe existed a tribal peoples, ice cold, light skin, fair skinned, golden yellow haired, brown hair, fair wooden color hair, red firey hair, blue eyed, orange cooper eyes, silver grey eyes, green eyes....different primitie tribes. European DNA may be something kind of 'Unique' a population genetics with autosomal, Y-chromosomal, traits of mitochondrial DNA, ancient-human DNA details dawn of Neanderthals who would later mix and breed with other Europeans finally dying out as an old caveman Spain but continuing in the blood of Europeans, closely related to a group called Denisovans — known from remains found thousands of kilometres away in East Asian or Siberia....these Europeans were still a type of barabarian caveman primitive.

Slowly Europe embraces 'Civilisation' the wandering Tribes of women and men grow to sdomething else, Barbarians, Hunters ...they modernize, Greeks come, Germanic Tribes, the Celts, Etruscans, the Romans and the City of Rome, Merovingian Franks....cultures conquer Europe, first the old Gods of tribalism and first Big Civilisation the Greeks, Zeus, Hera, Posiedon, Hermes. Next Rome with New Gods same as the Old but with new names Jupiter, Mars, Venus, Neptune...but at the same time man pagan, tribal cultures existed, the no mans land of Slavic areas, the Viking culture. What Greek and Roman culture did bring was a period of science, philospohy and enlightenment. Rome eventually goes Christian, Europe reconquer for Christendom. Next Rome falls, the Eastern Roman Empire Byzantine falls, a new religion foudned by a war monger pedophile psychopath named Mohammed comes from the Middle East, a religiion of jihad called 'Islam' Spain gets attacked by muslims and in East Europe a different type of islamist jihad invades, cutting and beheading its way through the Balkans and Eastern Europe.

Looking at Europe they were so far behind, but next comes a re-birth of science and philosphy the Renaisance, Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti, Reformation, the Ages of Exploration and the Industrial Revolution....No Doubt North America was already known, Native Tribes existed and a series of civilisations in Meso America, Maya, Aztec, Inca, Cahokia a possible ancient North American city, it was also possible tribes of eskimo siberians inuits were making the crossing from Asia to America or Europe to America, also evidence to show Scandanavian or Viking Cu

You're joking, right ? Do you honestly need a link to remember this ?

Barack Obama: Nasa must try to make Muslims 'feel good'

The head of the Nasa has said Barack Obama told him to make "reaching out to the Muslim world" one of the space agency's top priorities.

By Toby Harnden in Washington 8:00PM BST 06 Jul 2010

Charles Bolden, a retired United States Marines Corps major-general and former astronaut, said in an interview with al-Jazeera that Nasa was not only a space exploration agency but also an "Earth improvement agency".

Mr Bolden said: "When I became the Nasa administrator, he [Mr Obama] charged me with three things.

"One, he wanted me to help reinspire 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, math, and engineering."

He added: "It is a matter of trying to reach out and get the best of all worlds, if you will, and there is much to be gained by drawing in the contributions that are possible from the Muslim [nations]."

Byron York, a conservative columnist for the Washington Examiner, characterised Mr Obama's space policy shift as moving "from moon landings to promoting self-esteem"
