From the internet:

“Webb ran the fledgling space agency from February 1961 to October 1968. He believed that NASA had to strike a balance between human space flight and science. The man whose name NASA has chosen to bestow upon the successor to the Hubble Space Telescope is most commonly linked to the Apollo moon program, not to science.”

"That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind."

Only an idiot liberal would claim Apollo was not science.
