science

The budget provides insufficient (or no) funding for future NASA flagship missions: LISA, the space-based successor to LIGO, the Nancy Roman Telescope, an already-constructed super-Hubble that’s awaiting launch, and the Habitable Worlds Observatory, the first-ever telescope that will be capable of directly imaging Earth-sized worlds at Earth-like distances around Sun-like stars, and our best hope for finding our first inhabited planet beyond Earth.

That part about super hubble kills me. This is terrible. Is there any way to redirect all my federal tax income directly into NASA? :P

How do you have so many guns, and yet no one is taking pot shots at these scumbags? Surely someone gutting the crown jewel of your nation should rile up the inevitable if small crossover in the Venn diagram of NASA-lovers, NRA members, and the clinically pissed-off

I wonder what country all the scientists will go to this time

Boy they sure are owning the libs. “…peaceful purposes for the benefit of all mankind” is such a pansy-ass mission. If we do great stuff and just share it with everyone, no billionaires get any richer!

NASA was created enthusiastically by Eisenhower, a Republican war hero who had governed American-occupied Germany during WWII and was the first supreme commander of NATO just prior to becoming president. He unleashed an era of American greatness, including the entire interstate highway system which unlocked decades of future commerce growth and is named after him. If you had to name a single president who embodied the Greatness of which one might want to Make America embody Again, there are many strong arguments to be made that Eisenhower is the man.

He also signed the civil rights act and enforced school desegregation, in addition to warning the public about the rise of the Military Industrial Complex on his way out of office. In fact, he’s not at all what the nazifascist cheerleaders behind the worst president in American history would ever have thought of as great, but the MAGA slogan was a lie from the very beginning. It’s a very sad time to be an American.

I expect nothing else from a Third World country, run by a tinpot dick tater-tot.

Cowards and bootlickers.

can only sigh so hard

Sycophants

Fuck this dude. Fuck road rules tool bags.
