WASHINGTON — NASA Administrator Charlie Bolden said Tuesday that President Barack Obama has asked him to “find ways to reach out to dominantly Muslim countries” as the White House pushes the space agency to become a tool of international diplomacy.

“In addition to the nations that most of you usually hear about when you think about the International Space Station, we now have expanded our efforts to reach out to non-traditional partners,” said Bolden, speaking to a lecture hall of young engineering students.

Specifically, he talked about connecting with countries that do not have an established space program and helping them conduct science missions. He mentioned new opportunities with Indonesia, including an educational program that examines global climate change.

“We really like Indonesia because the State Department, the Department of Education [and] other agencies in the U.S. are reaching out to Indonesia as the largest Muslim nation in the world. We would love to establish partners there,” Bolden said.

No joke. The headline is real. Are we surprised? NO. But it goes to show how far this guy is going to ruin our nation.

He is not exactly going to help his NASA budget proposal with this kind of extreme bald face muslim coddling NASA destroying insanity.

FIGHT FOR NASA! Obama is attempting to destroy our nations shining example of American achievement and the pioneer spirit that birthed this nation.

Here's how... http://www.supportconstellation.com

"Nowhere is this more important than our next frontier: space. Nowhere do we so effectively demonstrate our technological leadership and ability to make life better on Earth. The Space Age is barely a quarter of a century old. But already we've pushed civilization forward with our advances in science and technology. Opportunities and jobs will multiply as we cross new thresholds of knowledge and reach deeper into the unknown.

Our progress in space, taking giant steps for all mankind, is a tribute to American teamwork and excellence. Our finest minds in government, industry and academia have all pulled together. And we can be proud to say: We are first; we are the best; and we are so because we're free. "America has always been greatest when we dared to be great. We can reach for greatness again. We can follow our dreams to distant stars, living and working in space for peaceful, economic, and scientific gain." -Ronald Wilson Reagan

How about if NASA develops some nuclear ICBMs and “reaches out” to a few Islamic countries with those?

It is unconstitutional for the government to recognize any religion, for any purpose.

The combined technological creativity of Muslim countries is next to nothing, although some can manufacture what has already been created elsewhere. We don't partner with those countries in advanced technologies because they have nothing to offer.

This is more of Obama hallucinating about Making Nice and gaining the adoration of the world.
