    That has nothing to do with Schmidt and the institute he leads whom I was quoting. Either he is a legit part of NASA or he is not, he is not a student so what has website maintenance got to do with my point as I am talking about the institute itself.

    The Climate Institute at Goddard is funded with a government grant. The Climate Institute at Goddard also funds the university to put up the website and maintain it with students.

    No full-time NASA employee considers the "Climate Institute at Goddard" which is not even located on one of the Goddard campuses to be legitimate part of NASA.

    I didn't ask you about their website and it doesn't matter how they are funded - if they are a legit part of NASA and the quotes I posted didn't come from students then your argument about the website and students running it has got nothing to do with my point at all.

    And citation needed for this NASA employee view on the Climate institute, I am not going to take your word for it.

    A yes or no question when I have already presented the facts doesn't need any research, you are not even willing to address the points while the arguments keeps shifting (first students, then employees and other employees don't consider it legit without any sources to back any claims)

    That's incredibly short sighted as nasa has to continuously study planet atmospheres and weather patterns to adjust flight plans, re-entry maneuvers and tons of other things pertaining to planet exploration & study

    That's a nice tactic, get caught in a lie and ask people to read up 'many other threads'. Now wait till I employ it.

    Since the topic has been so widely discussed in the past so many times it is not worth further reposting the same material over and over again. If you have further interest in the subject please use the search capability in ET.

    Actually the one area that NASA is supposed to study is the upper atmosphere to support their launches.. The arena of climate change is well outside the purview of NASA.
