Nasa Now Muslim Space Agency

NASA Chief: Next Frontier Better Relations ... NASA Administrator Charles Bolden (left) said in a recent interview that his "foremost" mission as the head of America's space exploration agency is to improve relations with the Muslim world. Though international diplomacy would seem well outside NASA's orbit, Bolden said in an interview with Al Jazeera that strengthening those ties was among the top tasks President Obama assigned him. He said better interaction with the Muslim world would ultimately advance space travel. – Fox News

Do you guys agree that all muslims h8 us and should die or is this more media scaremongering?

This man makes some good points.

fuck it, I'm going Muslim. I'm gonna get one of those little hats.

wow

sell outs

What a bizarre and confusing headline. I started watching that youtube vid but had to switch off after about a minute because that guy's clearly not going to elucidate any of this to me. I'll check back later when my fellow watmmers have partially unravelled what this is all about...

what its about is that the world is fucked

quite funny to watch for about 3 minutes.... then i turned it off when i realised he was probably actually taking it all seriously.

Al-fucking-JAZEERA.

did he say onionnews.org?

...probably? that's the face of a man who was raised on corn-pone and burning crosses.

He said he thought it had to be the onion because it was so stupid. But it's not the onion.

oh, i turned it off right after he said onionnews.org. guess i'll keep watching.

besides wanting to become the next president of the us and wanting to go to mars to retire, he just keeps repeating "and people say I'M crazy?!" for 23 minutes.

*splodes*

Here's the quote, guys:

  Quote

"When I became the NASA administrator -- or before I became the NASA administrator -- he charged me with three things. One was he wanted me to help re-inspire children to want to get into science and math, he wanted me to expand our international relationships, and third, and perhaps foremost, he wanted me to find a way to reach out to the Muslim world and engage much more with dominantly Muslim nations to help them feel good about their historic contribution to science ... and math and engineering,"

See, I got that, and then figured there had to be something more to it for that headline to be anything other than that of a parody news article. That's it? That's all? There really ought to be some kind of limit to how sensational and misleading a news headline is allowed to be by law. Any legislators here?

Herforth under section 17 of the bill of lobbying and deceit:

i proclaim all news headlines be as sensational as possible...

In other news...i proclaim that man (or woman) be permitted to stuff dead animals and dress them in tiny hats

Okay, I'll settle for that.

International Space Station. IN-TER-NA-TION-AL.

He clearly states that it is not a diplomatic mission.

IN other words, FOX news sensationalizes shit for profit. Who would have thunk it?

i appreciate/enjoy/agree with the youtuber's attitude and delivery

I've figured it out.

This is a reference to the early 90s hip-hop album Black Evil In Space, with an aim at releasing the currently under-wraps Black Orthodox Muslim In Space album to the full internet fanfare it expects.

These viral campaigns are really moving up a gear!
