High-Ranking Republican Asks NASA Bizarre Question About Martians Live On TV

quote [ America’s House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology is, to put it politely, a joke.
The Republican-dominated chamber is lacking in actual scientists, full of climate change deniers, and it regularly shares Breitbart articles on its Trump apologist-themed Twitter feed of falsehoods. Despite being able to direct the country’s science policy, it is about as scientifically knowledgeable as a dog.

One of the high-ranking members of this committee, Dana Rohrabacher, has said some truly remarkable things in the past, but he’s just outdone himself. During a panel with several space science experts, including those from NASA, he asked: “Is it possible that there was a civilization on Mars thousands of years ago?” ]

Anybody with a rudimentary knowledge of the solar system and universe already knows the answer to that question.

But the content of the question is irrelevant. The point is to make everything legitimate, therefore destroying the truth.
