The President, to the Curiosity rover team at NASA:
“If in fact, you do make contact with Martians please let me know right away,” the president joked. “Because I’ve got a lot of other things on my plate but I suspect that that will go to the top of the list – even if they’re just microbes, it will be pretty exciting.”
Hell yea it would!
Call this a puff piece or whatever but I can honestly say that something I’ve always been impressed by is the fact that Obama seems to legitimately find science cool. I think that’s a good thing, and a welcome difference from those on the right who attempt to demonize science.
