Photoshop call: Redesign NASA’s logo

By Michelle Malkin  •  July 6, 2010 06:04 PM

Since NASA’s new mission involves pandering to Muslims, it’s time for a new logo photoshop contest.

Reader Duke gets a head start on the competition. He e-mailed his proposal in this afternoon:

Send me your submissions and I’ll post the best.

    I’m sure that Obama would re-work the flag if he could.

    Saw two great bumper stickers on the same car the other day:

    1) The silly Obama logo, under which was, “Sorry Yet?”;

    and

    2) “Don’t blame me…I voted for the American.”

    I hate to disrupt a good bit of frothing at the mouth, but the re-design of the Missle Defense Agency was actually done under the Bush Administration, and only rolled out under Obama.

    Here’s a link to Big Government, a conservative site, discussing it:

    And for the record, I’m in no way a fan of Obama by any stretch, but I do believe in accuracy.

    If you can’t increase accuracy, attempt a larger yield.

    Silly Dhimmi. . . you are so cute when you break the rules without our having told you what they are. The object is outreach, not outrage. You should know by now that an image of Mohamed is unacceptable.

    How about a big Moon Boot footprint over their Cresent Moon and star symbol. Yeah, that’s right, you know your most important religious symbol. . . we walked ALL OVER IT! Drove all over it, played golf on it, brought some of it back, left some garbage up there and an American flag.

    There is no direction to Mecca in outer space so you can’t fulfill your obligations to your god outside of Earth’s atmosphere.

    Well, our Flag(Old Glory) is on the moon. Not the rop type, russins, or any other country. Did the rop type help a bunch? Who paid for nasa? Did not several generations of taxpayers here in the U.S.? Now, this bho thinks it is ok to give the rop type all our country has done to ‘make them feel good’? Sorry, the whole thing sucks!!!

    I’m not good at graphics, but if I were, I would use the universal sign for female and put a line through it because under sharia law a female would not be allowed in a spaceship with a male nonrelative.

    So in answer to your question, Tbone, about a burka fitting in a spacesuit – not applicable.

    I’d like to see liquid propellant tank photoshoped like the dome of a mosque, and the two solid rocket boosters painted like miniarettes. Then, paint the shuttle, top down, like a woman in a burgua, the windows the slot in the veil.

    I can imagine it, but I don’t Photoshop.

    I think you got your wires a bit crossed on the topic here, infallible. The photoshop logo fun isn’t about that. Michelle linked in her post to Doug’s previous post and here’s another link to the newsstory we’re talking about here:
    NASA’s ‘foremost’ mission to improve ‘relations with Muslim world’

    The problem with catering and kow towing to Muslims, and engaging in Preferred Status Affirmitive Action in which Muslims are the preferred group, which they already have been (“Islam is the Religion of Peace, Love, Tolerance, Compassion, and Understanding,” “The US is not a Christian Nation,” “The US is among the largest Muslim populations in the world … ” – paraphrased), is that Muslims are highly likely to use a space rocket or space craft as a weapon of mass destruction, and also to use advancement in space technology to establish a caliphate and coerce submission of the rest of the world.

    Let’s not jump to conclusions and act stupidly till all the facts are known.

    Muslims bring decades of Aviation and Rocketry experience to NASA: Iraqi SCUD Missilery, Hamas skills launching tricky Katyusha Rockets and there is the precision Civilian Jet Piloting as demonstrated on 911 that must be considered here.

    The NASA Anthem

    MAGIC CARPET RIDE

    I like to dream yes, yes, right between my sound machine
    On a cloud of sound I drift in the night
    Any place it goes is right
    Goes far, flies near, to the stars away from here

    Well, you don’t know what we can find
    Why don’t you come with me little girl
    On a magic carpet ride
    You don’t know what we can see
    Why don’t you tell your dreams to me
    Fantasy will set you free
    Close your eyes girl
    Look inside girl
    Let the sound take you away

    Last night I held Aladdin’s lamp
    And so I wished that I could stay
    Before the thing could answer me
    Well, someone came and took the lamp away
    I looked around, a lousy candle’s all I found

    Well, you don’t know what we can find
    Why don’t you come with me little girl
    On a magic carpet ride

    If this is NASA’s mission then shut NASA down. This from someone who asa boy watched every launch from Mercury to Apollo.

    This administration’s idea of going boldly forward is offering three flavors of Victory Gin to the people.

    I am sure their families are comforted by this.

    Yeah, especially Ilan Ramon, whose 21 year old son, Asaf Ramon died training for the IAF.
    “Ilan, the son of a mother who survived the Holocaust, and a father who is a veteran of the War of Independence, was a courageous combat pilot and an outstanding officer, and was among the best of our sons and warriors,” said Ariel Sharon at his memorial service.

    President Moshe Katsav said that had Ramon not fulfilled his duty so perfectly in bombing the Iraqi nuclear reactor in 1981 — long before he reached the status of national icon — Israel and indeed the world might have been a far worse place.

    Random63,

    No, I did not. I remember how excited I was the day the Mercury astronauts were selected. I watched every moment of every Mercury and Gemini flight. I met Jim Lovell one year before Apollo 13. I watched Apollo 11 land in an Army Day Room.

    Tonight, I want to go in the bathroom and throw up. It’s getting very hard not to hate these people.

    With all respect to Michelle, let’s pass on the photo-shop diversion and again recognize that war has been declared on America from within. We don’t need to laugh at Bolden – he’s already made a clown of himself – we need him GONE. Save the P-Shop time and contact your House and Senate folks to demand Bolden’s resignation.

    @Flyoverman My mother made me watch the Apollo 11 Moon landing when I was a small boy. I was awestruck and spent time that evening outside looking at the Moon for the astronauts as young boys and their young boy logic would do. I never dreamed that 39 years later I would be shaking the hand of Neil Armstrong and get to share that story with him.

    I had many wonderful years working on the Shuttle Fleet, but meeting Armstrong was the best memory.
