Trump to scrap Nasa climate research in crackdown on ‘politicized science’

Donald Trump is poised to eliminate all climate change research conducted by Nasa as part of a crackdown on “politicized science”, his senior adviser on issues relating to the space agency has said.

Nasa’s Earth science division is set to be stripped of funding in favor of exploration of deep space, with the president-elect having set a goal during the campaign to explore the entire solar system by the end of the century.

This would mean the elimination of Nasa’s world-renowned research into temperature, ice, clouds and other climate phenomena. Nasa’s network of satellites provide a wealth of information on climate change, with the Earth science division’s budget set to grow to $2bn next year. By comparison, space exploration has been scaled back somewhat, with a proposed budget of $2.8bn in 2017.

Bob Walker, a senior Trump campaign adviser, said there was no need for Nasa to do what he has previously described as “politically correct environmental monitoring”.

Excellent start.

[bigbob]

Crap-can it all. If it’s important, someone else will do it. Maybe France.

Everyday is Christmas!

Great! Lets get rid of the Fake science!

Bam!

Hit that one otta the park.

[Jim Robinson]

Go, Trump, GO!!

But the NYT and half the FReepers said he changed his mind on Global Warming, how can this be?

Pray America woke

Scrapping “politicized science” is just another of many great things Trump is doing to save America.

President elect Trump saved America from Hillary Clinton a communist that would have been the total destruction of the USA.

President Hillary Clinton would have flooded the USA with 3rd world immigrants, including millions of Muslim Syrians and other Muslims. FYI there are 7 billion people in the world most of them in poverty , 1.7 billion Muslims in poverty. This alone would have been the end of the USA and freedom. Plus Hillary is a hard core communist who would have imported all these 3rd world immigrants as voters for communism in the USA

This is just 1 point that shows we should be extremely thankful Trump beat Hillary and her allies the GOPe and democrats and the media and world establishment to save America

Trump also already stopped TPP(saved U.S. sovereignty) and many companies are saying they will make things in the USA again (Apple, Ford,HP, and many others already).

Ok these are just 3 points . I know hundreds of others that show Trump saved America and that Trump will Make America Great again. Trump hasn't even taken office or had any power yet

How about NASA’s Muslim Behavioral Health Department?

...elimination of Nasa’s world-renowned research into temperature, ice, clouds and other climate phenomena"

ROFLOL!! They've been listening to Hanson brag about his preposterously bogus research.

[LouieFisk]

“Excellent start.”

Yup. About dang time NASA got back to doing space stuff.

[Moonman62]

Pinch me. I’m dreaming.

“There is overwhelming and long-established evidence that burning fossil fuels and deforestation causes the release of heat-trapping gases, therefore causing the warming experienced in recent decades.”

I have seen not data to support this? In fact there has been little warming over the past few decades.

[ConfidentConservative]

Winning and winning again!!

I am looking forward to more research of our solar system!!

Patriots need to get Trump up to speed with the constitutional reality that granting patents (1.8.8) is the only specific power to legislatively address science-related issues that the states have expressly delegated to Congress.

Corrections, insights welcome.

So even if global warming had been conclusively proven by the consistent results of repeatable, scientific method-based experiments, it remains that the states have never expressly constitutionally delegated to the feds the specific power to regulate, tax and spend in the name of environmental issues.

In fact, NASA needs to justified with an appropriate constitutional amendment imo.

• “Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.

• ”From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added].” —United States v. Butler, 1936.

the second half of Trump’s first term:
1. we will return to the moon
2. we will plan for a manned mission to mars.
3. equipment shipments to both locations will be planned
4. we will begin implementation of a permanent science station on the moon.
5. astroid mining and financial ROI plans will be engaged.

Second term?
1. manned missions to mars.
2. Science station in martian orbit
3. robotic missions to Jupiter’s moons run from cape of the US/Russian mars science and space center
4. manned mars stations under construction.
5. privatization of property rights on any potential habitable or resource rich planets and moons within our solar system.
6. a breakthrough in very high speed travel technology and gravity based “instant” real time and quantum particle excitement properties communication.
7. attempted launch of deep deep space penetration to nearest solar system in the centauri quadrants... may fail but we will learn the secrets and technologies of deep space travel.

after that?
either the dems come back into power to send us back into the stone ages, or Jesus comes back and gives us a way to transverse space/time, using REALLY DIFFERENT tech than we have ever considered before...

[dragnet2]

That works for me!☺

[ari-freedom]

the whole point of NASA should be about space exploration. If it’s being scaled back in favor of other research then something is wrong

[roadcat]

Fantastic! The MSM never looks at the failed prognostications of Al Gore. He predicted that global warming would inundate coastal cities, putting them under the sea, by 2010 or some such year that passed (without any loss of cities). The only thing accomplished from his false narrative was to enrich Al Gore. Taking NASA back from the PC crowd, love it!

It’s truly Thanksgiving - so much to be thankful for.
