Incorrect Criticism of NOEWise Satellite Project

It seems that a scientific paper published by Myhrvold (and oddly PR'd) before a full peer review is being pulled to shreds by the astro-physics community. Myhrvold seems to be accused of accusing NASA scientists of fraud, of misunderstanding basic principles and even some fundamental errors in geometry. Given the scientific background and training and intimate knowledge of space science claimed in this somewhat puffy article, should this be included under science, controversy or intellectual ventures in order to provide some balance? http://www.slate.com/blogs/bad_astronomy/2016/05/27/nathan_myhrvold_claims_nasa_scientists_asteroid_calculations_are_all_wrong.html http://www.nasa.gov/feature/nasa-response-to-recent-paper-on-neowise-asteroid-size-results 81.106.116.183 (talk) 10:10, 29 May 2016 (UTC)
