NASA emphasizes climate science role amid fiscal and partisan challenges

WASHINGTON — In a summer of extreme weather events, NASA is emphasizing its role in studying the climate, efforts that face both fiscal headwinds and partisan divides.

In a July 20 media briefing, NASA leadership highlighted the agency’s work in studying the climate and addressing climate change, efforts that range from Earth science missions to aeronautics research into sustainable aviation.

“You think of NASA as a space agency. You think of NASA as an aeronautical research agency. NASA is also a climate agency,” NASA Administrator Bill Nelson said at the briefing.

Officials discussed the various activities at the agency related to studying climate change and providing resources for other agencies and the general public. “At NASA, we provide end-to-end research about climate, from observations to models and applications to technology,” said Kate Calvin, NASA chief scientist and senior climate adviser.

While NASA has long been involved in climate science and related activities, it has gained new prominence in the Biden administration, which has made climate change an administration-wide priority.

“...NASA emphasizes climate science role...”

Which is why we have to turn to private companies for actual space science.

I have no problem with study.

Drawing conclusions is another matter.

Making predictions is out of the question.

Way too many unknowns still exist

And even more unknowns remain unknown.

Why? If you were a scientist in Stalin’s Russia, what type of job would you have or how much funding would you get if you did not adhere to Lysenkoism? If you want to advance in the US military, you better dance the regime’s trans jig. How much federal funding will a climate emergency denier get?

NASA positioning to be near the top when they declare a “Climate Emergency Shutdown”. Everyone becomes a slave, and thus equal, after that.

When Congress is passing out $$BILLIONS for orbiting thermometers NASA nor the Contractors much care that the politicians will misuse the resulting data for their own fraudulent agenda.

“NASA Administrator Bill Nelson “

He is the rat Senator FLA finally got rid of a few years ago. Of course he would turn NASA into a green new deal tool.

The government, including NASA, has proven that it cannot be trusted with anything.

In a summer of extreme weather events,

But, I thought climate =/= weather?

And, here in SE Texas, the summer has been extreme weather events for all of my 53 years.

This is how NASA used to report about global warming as recently as 1990 (before the left made global warming a political science). Basically, the Modern Warm Period is just the same ol' same ol' like the Medieval Warm Period.
