Josh notes that NASA’s Dr. James Hansen gets a medal in Edinburgh this week, and was flying sky-high, but was brought back down to earth by NASA astronauts that performed an unscheduled EVA into the rarefied atmosphere of “climate change”.
Apparently, being sky high, Dr. Hansen seems to be suffering from some hypoxia. Word has it he was babbling on about “one small step for Mann…”
Time to bring him back down.
It’s high time we left Mr. Hansen.

Now that Drudge has picked up the Astronaut story, it IS big.

Hopefully, this will serve as a wake-up call for millions of people. Somehow, I doubt it will, but hope springs eternal!
Get NASA back to being the best damned scientific organization in the world! And quit with this ignorant, superstition driven carbonphobia!
Next he’ll be babbling “A Mann’s a Mann for a’ that” (a bard of no regard?)
considering he was in Edinburgh (didn’t think they had anything approaching
warming up there….). Whatever were they thinking???
As always, great cartoon Josh!
Love the cartoon but I say leave him up there.
Great cartoon Josh.

Dr Harrison ‘Spock’ Schmitt “It’s life Jim, but not as we know it.”
“That’s the tariff Jim for climate fraud”
shame that he is not living up in the space station
Just more media hype

“Skeptics bay for famed climate scientist’s painful death” – free tweet for you there, Bob.
The Moon is a paradise for this clown. There is no carbon dioxide there at all.
This fits in nicely with the astronaut statement except that this is fraud or intent to defraud the american people

For C##### S### this is complete fraud. These guys have to be fired immediately

Gosh, how about a space ship sending him to Venus with our hero astronauts at mission control. You could call it “Mission Acomplished” at least for him anyway.
Sorry, I meant Josh.
Josh is not a real artist like da vinci, Just look at all thoes random dots repesenting stars. /JK
That hat’s not going to be much good upon re-entry.
If Hansen is really worried about carbon footprints, why didn’t he just ask them to mail his award to him? Better yet, why didn’t he ask them to fax him a virtual award, which he could then print out and hang on his office wall rather than travel halfway around the world to pick it up? Is It just me or does it sound counter productive to destroy the planet to pick up an award for saving it?

“That hat’s not going to be much good upon re-entry.”
I disagree, That hat will make anyone look good during reentry.
Well done, Josh.
Like the reflections on the face “shield”.

Providing a view of a blue sky from the moon suggests that Josh is not a real climate scientist. But he does seem to be a real artist. Just saying …
I always like Josh’s work, even if I don’t jump in and say so every time.
It has been a tough day. Thanks for the laugh Josh!!!
Of course, astronauts are supremely qualified to comment on Climate Change.
To avoid confusion for those not familiar with UK traditions, the following distinction may be useful.
▪ The Duke of Edinburgh Award is given to teenagers who have demonstrated the ability to live in a tent for a year living off survival rations and to help the poor.
▪ The Edinburgh Medal is given to pensioners who have demonstrated the ability to live in a hotel for a year living off the minibar and to harass the poor.
There are serious people that think Hansen is almost insane, but I disagree.
