Here ya go, I got the "little" report without the Breitbart link, since the fact they wrote a piece about the report somehow tarnishes it in advanced delusional schizophrenia with involuntary raging OCD land.

In April of 2012, 49 former NASA employees sent a letter to the current NASA administrator requesting that he effectively muzzle the climate scientists at NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS). None of those former NASA employees have conducted any climate science research, but based on their own lack of understanding of the subject, they objected to the conclusions drawn by the climate experts at NASA GISS. This letter drew media attention because folks who have worked at NASA are well-respected (and rightly so), but there was really no substance to it, or any particular reason to lend it credence. Astronauts and engineers are not climate experts.
Now in January of 2013, a group of 20 "Apollo era NASA retirees" has put together a rudimentary climate "report" and issued a press release declaring that they have decided human-caused global warming is not "settled" and is nothing to worry about. This time around they have not listed the 20 individuals who contributed to this project, but have simply described the group as being:
"...comprised of renowned space scientists with formal educational and decades career involvement in engineering, physics, chemistry, astrophysics, geophysics, geology and meteorology. Many of these scientists have Ph.Ds"
The project seems to be headed by H. Leighton Steward, a 77-year-old former oil and gas executive. The press release also links the NASA group to his website, "co2isgreen", which also has an extensive history of receiving fossil fuel industry funding.
(In 2009, the group launched a website,
www.co2isgreen.net to promote its agenda and encourage public participation. The site links to Plants Need CO2, a group whose named principal is H. Leighton Steward, who is the Chairman of the Board of The Institute for the Study of Earth and Man at Southern Methodist University.
The Institute funded by Exxon Mobil, Shell Oil, Hunt Oil, Lyco Energy Corporation, and Five States Energy Corporation.)

This story can be summed up very simply: a group of retired NASA scientists with no climate science research experience listened to a few climate scientists and a few fossil fuel-funded contrarian scientists, read a few climate blogs, asked a few relatively simple questions, decided that those questions cannot be answered (though we will answer them in this post), put together a very rudimentary report, and now expect people to listen to them because they used to work at NASA. It's purely an appeal to authority, except that the participants have no authority or expertise in climate science.

That's interesting because the "flat earthers" were the "consensus" believers of their day, it was widely held by "scientists" then that the world was flat.
"Consensus" said then that this was so.
Wow it turned out they were wrong.
Who would've thought that claims of consensus could ever ever be bogus.
They were proven to be incorrect
You're misunderstanding "no scientific consensus" for "scientific consensus" ---> Before modern science, there was no scientific consensus on the shape of the Earth, after experiments were conducted and science was utilized, it was discovered the Earth was round, then the scientific consensus accepted it as fact after peer review
