"SNIP.....

Although Ultima Thule is located within our Solar System’s Kuiper belt, Kilmeade repeatedly insisted on Fox & Friends that the New Horizons spacecraft left the “galaxy” during the journey.

“NASA believes it was formed during the birth of the Solar System,” a Fox & Friends newsreader announced on Thursday.

“Those are ice crystals that look like a snowman,” co-host Steve Doocy commented upon seeing a photo of Ultima Thule.

“How great is it that we left our galaxy?” Kilmeade asked, leaving his co-host speechless.


......SNIP"

1. LOL!

2. These people are literally dumb as a rock. Or more accurately, dumber. I don't want to insult...

the rocks.

[Elwood P Dowd]

5. You should talk to people who actually watch that show every day.

It will scare you to death.

10. I know. That's why I don't watch it (or any TV for that matter). I don't believe in TV by ...

what they want us to watch (commercials dictate).

Only TV by my dictate, my rules, no one else's rules. PBS is great.

In short, the number of commercials is getting crazier by the day and I'm frankly getting tired of the 5-10 minutes break time that each show goes into, for commercials. This is an insult and wasting my time.

Take care!

3. amazing that their idiot broadcast still reaches Earth

How long before the intergalactic broadcasts of Fox & Friends goes dark?

4. Old bad SF movies

often had that problem as well.

Remember to a young Earth Creationist the entire universe fits inside 6,000 light years. They have some interesting explanations for that.

6. Did no one correct that ignoramus?

[rurallib]

12. who among that group would think he was wrong?

[mercuryblues]

7. Science is hard for a republican

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

8. Ah yes

Dumbfucks and friends.

[lunatica]

9. I didn't get past the headline without bursting out laughing!

[NRaleighLiberal]

11. what if he noted the object is 4.6 B years old...his watchers heads would have exploded!

[akraven]

13. Galaxy? OMG - what a big word for a dumbass to use!

The whole concept of science is lost on the right-wing nutjobs. Faux Snooze is there to pat hands of those folks as deliberately stupid as they are.

And I thought it looked more like a boiled peanut than a snowman, but what do I know? Been craving boiled peanuts for about 6 years!

14. Uh huh. Because decreasing the budgets for Public Education

Won't have ANY effect except to save money.
Rolls eyes and shakes head.

I work with a person who legit believes the moon is 'fake'. These people exist. If they somehow couldn't vote, I suppose I wouldn't really care, but that's not how it works.
Republicans have embraced this Stupid, and encourage it for their own ends...that we must find a way to stop.

Left our Galaxy...yes because it was equipped with NASAs new, super-secret, state of the art, Transwarp Hyperdrive.
