Wow. Is there any limit to this administration's naked ambition?
OK. I did just see "An Inconvenient Truth" but come on, after the recent uproar over a politically appointed NASA officer trying to censor NASA scientists from speaking publicly about global warming data, they simply delete any reference to our terrestrial home from the mission statement? OMG.
David E. Steitz, a spokesman for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, said the aim was to square the statement with President Bush’s goal of pursuing human spaceflight to the Moon and Mars.
...so that we might establish a new home after we've destroyed this one?
