Why are they even dealing with that issue? I thought NASA's mission was space exploration. Climate is something that exists on earth.
Earth science IS one of NASA’s missions, its just that the agency needs to get back to collecting science, not trying to prove a (false) thesis.
Personally, except for retards like the author of the article and the dismissed employee, the science collection really hasn’t changed much. There is tremendous value in understanding the Earth environment as we learn how to predict weather, ward off REAL man made disasters like poor agriculture habits that cause top soil erosion (really bad in Africa for example), see the effects deforestation in the Amazon, understand ocean currents and El Ninio/ La Nina cycles, etc. These are all valid and worthy collections.
The hardest science in the world has been weather prediction, but the latest instruments on the NASA GOES weather satellites can now do lightning mapping and help better predict storms to aid aviation safety and provide better storm warning.
But starting out with the premise that man made CO2 (a plant fertilizer) is causing global warming and trying to prove this by manufacturing the data is not science. Its just propaganda fodder.
