Yes they asked this question at a Bible college and the @LibertyU guy could not resist making a dozen #Uranus jokes at @JimBridenstine's expense pic.twitter.com/VIY95kI2JH

Keith’s note: More tweets below. FYI I stumbled across this in my Facebook feed. NASA did not make any mention of this appearance. Toward the end they played a question and answer game with Jim Bridenstine. Whoever was wrong had to eat a popsicle with increasingly incendiary hot sauce on it. This might be a useful management tool for Bridenstine to employ at NASA. Just sayin’
FYI @JimBridenstine is speaking live starting at 10:30 am ET at the Liberty University Convocation https://t.co/mLzFgXkdEj @LibertyU pic.twitter.com/OF5OpVc8TQ

"The relationship between the US and Russia is as hostile as it has ever been yet we have had a productive relationship on the ISS for 20 years. Space transcends earthly politics" @JimBridenstine

And #SpaceForce got a big cheer at @LibertyU when @JimBridenstine brought it up in response to a question about "China seeing space as America's Achilles heel".

NASA does not engage in military efforts but we still have to make sure that space is secure for commerce and exploration "We cannot let space to be held at risk from those who would do us harm" @JimBridenstine @Liberty U

"If you hold out a penny at arms length and focus on Lincoln's eye ball and focus a telescope on the eye for days and take pictures this is what Hubble saw – thousands of galaxies" – @JimBridnestine @LibertyU . #Astronomy pic.twitter.com/3cIt0VfJLX

I'm the first NASA Administrator who wasn't alive to see people on the Moon. I remember Challenger's loss. It's a failure of our country that we've not gone back in 50 years. We don't only want to remember the bad things. We need good things to remember @JimBridenstine

Uh oh they are playing a hot sauce "fire cracker challenge" with @JimBridenstine's technical answers determining how much hot sauce pain the @LibertyU host goes through. Hmm Jim ought to try this as a management tool at @NASA pic.twitter.com/fHANZmOxQp

And the #uranus jokes keep on coming at @LibertyU for @JimBridenstine – he got this one wrong (Answer is Mars) so he had to down some hot sauce on a red white and blue popsicle. pic.twitter.com/XRlw3x54wm
