NASA Chief: Next Frontier Better Relations With Muslim World

What kind of idiot would have a space/science program placate to violent, third world nations of Muslims?

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.

"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," Bolden said in the interview.

Can anyone think of a significant science discovery in the last hundred years that was found by a Muslim?

I'm not kidding. Here is the Link.
