A physics professor and author told MSNBC host Ed Schultz on Wednesday that Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) has the potential to do serious damage to NASA now that he’s in charge of the Senate subcommittee overseeing its budget.

“It’s like having the fox guard the chicken coop,” CUNY New York professor Michio Kaku said. “Don’t be surprised if all you have left are chicken bones.”

Cruz, a climate change skeptic, was appointed to lead the Space, Science and Competitiveness subcommittee following the Senate shift to Republican control last November.
