Bananas: Take A Giant Leap

April 19, 2025 Johnny Bananas (Fake News Reporter!)

After waiting nearly an hour beyond the scheduled time for lift off so some of the crew members could finish getting ready for their big date with the sky, the team at Blue Origin made herstory this past week by having an all-female crew pierce the atmosphere to become only the third such gynocentric space … Read more

NASA Forced to Dump DEI Officer They Tried to Hide from Trump

April 16, 2025 Steve MacDonald

The cleverest of clever people are convinced that they can continue to peddle their discriminatory cultural Marxism if they change what it’s called. And why not? They’ve been doing that successfully for decades. Global Warming is a four-decade-old project to undermine free market capitalism by claiming that the Western lifestyle is destroying the planet. It’s … Read more

NASA’s Climate Change Metrics Need Fixing

October 16, 2023 John Klar

Americans love their lawns. Some clean-looking lawns resemble golf courses in the area and may be mowed more frequently than required, a sort of suburban therapy. Cows, cars, and tennis courts are among the targets of climate change agitators.

Is NASA Just Another Biden/Harris Social Justice Agency?

August 30, 2023 John Klar

At an Aug. 14 news conference, NASA and other experts proclaimed that, according to “clear science,” current record-high temperatures are attributable to human activity. Yet NASA did not present any scientific evidence to demonstrate a connection between current warm temperatures and greenhouse gas emissions and ignored the massive non-anthropomorphic impact of last year’s record-breaking under-ocean volcano.

NASA: Water Vapor from Massive 2022 Underwater Eruption Could Warm Earth’s Surface for Years

August 4, 2023 Steve MacDonald

The headline you haven’t seen: “Tonga Eruption Blasted Unprecedented Amount of Water Into Stratosphere.” That’s from NASA. The text accompanying some impressive time-lapse imagery notes, “The sheer amount of water vapor could be enough to temporarily affect Earth’s global average temperature.”

NASA Got #Woke and Now It Is Running Out of Astronauts

October 20, 2022 Steve MacDonald

The progressive slide at NASA may have started before Obama tasked the agency with “Muslim Outreach,” but if not, that was probably a critical moment. Sure, the Global Warming scheme had been whittling away at the space agency for decades, but it wasn’t precisely #woke.

Hiding the Decline – Global Temperature are Down 15% from 2016

October 18, 2022March 30, 2022 Steve MacDonald

NOAA and NASA report that 2021 was the 6th warmest year on record, but they left something out. It also represents a net loss of 15% in global temperature since 2016.

NASA’s “Homophobic” Telescope is Ready to Launch Into Space

October 4, 2021 Auntie Vaquser

NASA is ready to launch the next best thing in space telescopes, but they named it after James Webb. He “oversaw all the critical first manned launches in the Mercury through Gemini programs.” He’s a big deal to NASA, so this seemed like a fitting tribute, but someone’s pissed.

New Narrative: Thanks To You Moon Wobble Will Cause Tidal Flooding

July 17, 2021July 16, 2021 Steve MacDonald

The latest warning to come out of the Climate Cult Bible of Western Sin is to a twofer. One item, presumable naturally occurring, combined with another that’s all your fault, to create more fake fear.

What if COVID is in 2020 What Climate Change was in 1980?

November 9, 2021September 12, 2020 Steve MacDonald

For decades the folks at NASA and NOAA have used the mass-delusion of climate change and the fear manufactured from it to bloat their budgets and those of allies and “rising” water carriers. A few dozen former NASA scientists have asked them to be a bit more scientific and a bit less hyperbolic.

After 63 Days in Orbit (NASA) SpaceX Astronauts Return Safely to Earth

August 2, 2020 Steve MacDonald

Elon Musk’s SpaceX has completed the first privately funded exploration of space. With help from NASA, the Crew Dragon space capsule splashed down safely. The first NASA water landing in 45 years.

The Climate fear-mongering has gotten out of hand at the State House

March 7, 2020March 7, 2020 Op-Ed

Democrat legislators in NH and other states are coming up with all kinds of crazy carbon tax plans along with bills that could potentially give tyrannical powers, in the hope of controlling “greenhouse gas” output. These bills are destructive to the free and unbiased practice of science by codifying a revenue stream that is reliant on a theory having a specific outcome, thereby corrupting the scientific method.

SMOD ‘Almost’ Makes a “Campaign Stop” on Earth Tomorrow Morning

February 14, 2020 Steve MacDonald

Another “candidate” for Sweet Meteor of Death (SMOD) will be making a near-earth flyby tomorrow morning. Sure, you can vote for SMOD (write-in candidate) but don’t get your hopes up for a selfie. By near-miss they mean 3.6 million miles. Astronomically close yet so far away.

NASA has pictures of the Australian fires.

January 6, 2020 Skip

Rather grisly, as I look at them. While there are similar fires out West here in the US, we rarely see much more than a few acres at a time here in the Northeast corner of the US (in New England). NASA has a couple of birds in space taking pics – here’s a few … Read more

NASA on the Solar Minimum – Next Cycle 30-50% Weaker than the Last

October 29, 2019 Steve MacDonald

It has been my informed opinion that the Left is nuts about Green Deals and Climate Chaos because the window is closing. Someone in the scientific community has told them the truth. We’re headed into a long cool or cold spell. Seize control of energy now or lose that chance for decades.

More Reasons Why CO² Isn’t Causing Climate Change and Government Can’t ‘Fix It’

June 22, 2023October 19, 2019 Steve MacDonald

We should pity the floundering liberals who blindly worship the cult of their god-king state. The entity that devours natural rights in exchange for a promise. That if you give it money and power, it can move the earth and save humanity.

In 1972 NASA Knew That CO2 Would Not Lead to Global Warming

October 17, 2019 Steve MacDonald

It is chemically impossible for CO² to warm the earth to any degree prophesied by three decades of left-wing alarmism. So, is it a bigger crime that NASA admitted as much back in 1972?

Calm the Heck Down – NASA Says 2019 Fires in the Amazon Are Typical for the Dry Season

August 26, 2019 Steve MacDonald

The latest thing to be all uppity about (this week) is the Amazon jungle. It’s on fire. Folks with no clue (athletes, celebrities, journalists) are trying to buy environmental cred by squawking about the fire in the jungle. Guess what? This year’s fires are not unusual. Not at all.

NASA says the Solar Minimum is Here. Climate Cult Says Meh, No Big Deal (But It Probably Is)

May 28, 2019 Steve MacDonald

Earth’s recent warming was the result of a solar maximum, not your SUV, lifestyle, or your oil or gas furnace. The Climate Cult has been selling a different story (in its quest to advance government control over your behavior and the means of production). But as the sun enters a solar minimum, you may need those fossil fuel-fired beauties.

NASA Admits: Mythical Beast Known As “Ice Free Arctic” Might be Decades Away

June 15, 2023December 7, 2018 Steve MacDonald

The ice-free arctic cabal has had a rough go of it. They’ve been promising us a view of that mythical beast for decades. We’ve even got rising global CO2 for bait, and yet still, there have been no sightings. That hasn’t stopped the parade of predictions even when confronted with this inconvenient truth:
