I watched the video of the interview and have a few remarks.
1) I think I own that exact same sport coat.
2) This might not be as crazy as it first sounds.
The International Space Station is about the only big ticket space item on display right now, and it's a great opportunity to push Islamic nations towards inclusion rather than letting fundamentalist voices shelter their people from the Western world and the global community.
It sends a great message to people in countries like Iran who have a very strong educational and scientific background, but today have no way to apply it other than building secret nuclear facilities.
Certainly, more inclusion in collaborative international efforts means less energy spent on terrorism, oppression or other destructive work.
I'd say this is less about Muslim outreach and more a sneaky plot to subvert radicalized authorities and secure our long-term freedoms.
