But this is interesting... spraying the atmosphere to reduce global warming :thumbsup:
That's scary, although I missed where they implied it was being used to reverse global warming. What ever the reason, I don't like the idea of the government testing chemicals on an unknowing populace.

As to NASA, they are a huge waste of money. I'm not going to say they haven't come up with some very helpful inventions, but the amount of money they spend vs. the amount of success they have had is greatly disproportionate. These are the same people who made it to the moon, pated themselves on the back, and basically said, "thats enough for a half century."

Hell, we now have private companies entering into the space travel and exploration business. I'm anxious to see the things that come from the private sector, it is about time NASA had some competition.
