NASA Supports Replacing American Flag With "Planet Earth" Flag [tr]

From a bit deeper research than the Inquisitr article has the following;

"Current expeditions in outer space use different national flags depending on which country is funding the voyage. The space travelers, however, are more than just representatives of their own countries. They are representatives of planet Earth," Pernefeldt wrote on his project's website.

This is a STUDENT PROJECT at a Swedish University and apparently he got the background pictures from NASA & JPL to which he added the flag he designed. This is something NASA PR does routinely for education projects.

I don't think NASA needs to be bombarded unless further info reveals a need!

NASA is an agency of the UNITED STATES.

Jackasses wasting time and money with this garbage should be fired.

That started happening years ago. It is a shame, too. My late husband worked there from 1966-1988. It had started being very political when he quit.

My son is majoring in aerospace engineering and will more than likely be employed by this outfit

And I’m not real happy about it

Thank you. BP was going to burst a vein.

What part of our society have the communists NOT taken absolute control of?

He would be better off working for Virgin, or Spacex.

All NASA is doing these days is paving the way for Spacex anyways.

the new flag is intended to represent Earth as a whole and to “remind the people of Earth that we share this planet, no matter of national boundaries.”

When the good shares its scientific discoveries with everyone, it is road paving. It paves the road to allowing evil to profit from the achievements of virtue.

Update: NASA has confirmed it wasn't involved in the creation of the flag design. "When we go to Mars, we will carry an American flag," a spokesperson told Engadget.

Stop going on vacations and buying things. Generates revenues too much for “planet earth” flags. If they keep poking America in the eye, few will lift a finger to stop that flag from being replaced by black one.

Obies demanding a slightly different color scheme

That is a truly awesome symbol for a flag. We need something that will inspire fear in any “evolved”, peace-loving aliens we come across. Something that tells them we mean business, right before our space-marines invade their puke-covered planet. Perhaps the obverse can be embroidered with “We’re the planet your mother warned you about”.

The Fruity Spirograph flag need not apply.

In trying to justify their existence by proposing replacement of the American flag, NASA apparently doesn’t have enough to do. Let’s defund them.
Then the EPA. The Dept. of Education. The Consumer Product Safety Commission (three hours later) the Internal Revenue Service, the Department of Energy ....

It's an Islamic-looking design, what a surprise.
