NASA budget time?

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

NASA again ...

[sodpoodle]

That’s too bad - just when Michelle Obama was going to add arsenic to the food pyramid;)

Scientists: NASA’s alleged discovery of arsenic-based life is crap
As soon Redfield started to read the paper, she was shocked. “I was outraged at how bad the science was,” she told me.

Well I'll be darned. Jan Hendrik Schön strikes again.

On the upside, at least this time the scam was discovered pqd. I guess, 'maybe', that Schön did teach some scientists a lesson after all.

Darn, I was just getting my “Save the Arsenic Bug” scam set up. I missed the whole “Global Warming” scam, but I figured NASA might get some mileage out of this one too. Where’s Al Baby when you need him??

C-SPAN testimony on freaky deaky microbes would be riveting television.

Really.

I mean who doesn't want to see Maxine Waters debate the finer points of molecular biology?

Peer-review science is NOT done over the internet.
It has to been verified independently using the same process and procedures to achieve similar results. Also, the process to obtain those results is examined for any contributing factors that skew the results.
This is not a question of 'maybe this' or maybe that', it's based on solid, repeatable, empirical data. Anything else is bull.

That's science, not an online blog war.

[Anti-Bubba182]

Interesting!

This is easy to explain.

NASA has laid off all real scientists in order to hire ill educated sleazy imams to teach Islam to all the remaining admin types.

Besides, being a scientist for a liberal regime is a contradiction in terms.

I’ve been ahead of you since 3 December....I posted this...my comment was meant as a huge sarc toward the bacteria theory crap:

“Arsenic-munching germ redefines ‘life as we know it’”

And my response was: “Somehow global warming is tied in with this.”

It must be hard to be a scientist. Long hours over a microscope. Days of calculations with strange formulas. Little pay. No recognition. There is always a temptation to see a breakthrough discovery where there is really none.

[PapaBear3625]

NASA’s the same agency that’s hot and heavy on Global Warming.

[SE Mom]

This is pitiful.

Whenever I drive along Route 1 around Titusville I can almost feel the ghosts of the glory days of NASA...and it’s a wonder- such great men- such great times they were. Hard to know what’s going on there now- if it’s The Left Stuff or a corruption of The Right Stuff.

My second thought (of the first article) was I had heard the earlier news of redefining life as we know it, before. Now this article has scientists who disagree with the original conclusion of redefining life as we know it. Such is the way of all our lives, God knows, we remain confused. Each of us sometimes runs in the wrong direction to believe what we choose, only to have our choice shown as incorrect. Thank you for posting this article. It speaks well, of the knowledge contained within this forum, and the intelligence level of all who participate here in this FreeRepublic.

When contacted for a response, a NASA official was heard to chant allah akbar and complain about how this was going to affect the self esteem of disenfranchised children around the world.

[SERKIT]

I was trying to figure out how this discovery helped NASA in their primary mission of promoting Islam. Maybe the Islamists want us to live on arsenic, and NASA is helping.

[Elwood P. Doud]

Remember when NASA was there to explore space? Seems so long ago.

[GeronL]

more bad science from NASA... not shocked

[antiRepublicrat]

Science at work.

[FormerACLUmember]

NASA “science” is devoted to faking the data, from Global Warming complete fraud to phony arsenic based life forms.
