ALL HAIL THE TERRAN EMPIRE whatevs I JUST GOT BACK FROM A SPEECH NICHELLE NICHOLS GAVE HERE AT WORK
God, she's such an amazing spokeswoman. I work in the space industry, so the intros were especially fun because everyone was basically "Here is Nichelle Nichols, she's amazing, I LOVE STAR TREK OMG."
She spoke about recruiting women/minority astronauts for the shuttle and then did the most AMAZING speech about why NASA and human spaceflight are important to this country and how we should GET ON IT, and we need to put this woman on every media source possible because I don't think anyone would dare disagree with her because she puts it so very excellently. Brought tears to my eyes and to be honest, I would do anything she told me to to help NASA get funding for human spaceflight.
It was truly amazing, bbs. I wish I had pics but alas, I forgot it was today til I got into work and I came unprepared. (Also, I'm pretty sure we're not allowed to bring cameras in for national security reasons.)
(I can't get the tags to work either. Huh. Um. All hail the empire.)
