The press crew should be fired for being idiots.
That brings me to a separate subject. All this talk about asteroids and sun spots is nothing but anxiety over nothing.
NASA has a very and rather brilliant branch that tracks near Earth objects very successfully. Not only that but NASA has now proven it can interfere with path of asteroids and remove any chance there would be a collision with Earth. That technology needs to be expanded and possibly placed with The Space Force to be able to respond to such threats. Perhaps at the Johnson Space Center in Houston. Ya, know. Mission Control.
NASA is going to have to consider sea level rise in Florida and whether the Kennedy Space Center needs to relocate.
But, as to sunspots, that is what big balls of hydrogen do. They burn and erupt all sorts of stuff. NASA monitors that, too. They have the most sophisticated equipment possible. Recently NASA flew a craft extremely close to the sun. The Parker Solar Probe (click here).
All this scientific stuff has a purpose. The equipment are not simply toys. They tell our scientists information about the lay of the land so to speak of the conditions and safe habitation of Earth. So far we are doing okay with the exception of the climate crisis compliments of the petroleum industry, including methane.
NASA is a good and benevolent guardian of planet Earth. There is no private industry that can hold a candle to NASA’s remarkable accomplishments.
