Science under Obama



New Scientist magazine compiled quotes from Barack Obama on a number of science topics. There's a second story on his commitment on scientific innovation.

Science warrior Chris Mooney offers a strongly worded review of where he expects Obama to take science, ending with a quote from the senator's victory speech Tuesday night, “A man touched down on the moon, a wall came down in Berlin, a world was connected by our own science and imagination.”

We'll see a lot more of these kinds of analyses in coming days.
