      Tbf, Homer Hickam is pretty well respected around NASA (he was the main character in October Sky). He also said in an interview later that he didn’t have any say over their internship being withdrawn, it was all the retweets with people hastagging NASA that got NASA’s people’s attention.

        and to be fair all be said was “language”, he didn’t know that the OP would be replying with the receipts that would get them rejected by NASA

    Old and incorrect. She didn’t in the end and this screenshot is ancient ragebait, the only thing worse than current ragebait.

      Even better, it was at the behest of homie whom she insulted. The world isn’t all doom and gloom. It’s close, but not quite there yet.

          the descendants of those nazis truly believe in the PR and they’ve doubled down; the woman whose computer i had to fix had prop 8 signs and a crucifix on her desk.

          i decided to quit because i realized that the software i was supposed to be troubleshooting was intended to make missiles more aerodynamic and nothing to do with space.

              have you seen the tiktoks from the isreali’s?

              i think that they REALLY take the cake as far a propaganda is concerned and we americans are a close 2nd.

            I don’t doubt you saw something that scared you, but rockets and missiles are literally the same thing barring payload and trajectory and nobody is using bespoke software to puzzle out aerodynamics in 20xx, that’s table at the back of the college textbook stuff these days.

            NASA didn’t even exist until after ICBMs were invented in both the US and the Soviet Union, so idk what y’all are on about. NASA used old ICBM tech to make rockets that weren’t for military use. Atlas, an ICBM, is what launched the first US astronauts to space during the Mercury program.

            Also Von Braun was a Nazi

              Atlas is still running and took some folks to space last year, and Braun was imprisoned by Hitler at some point. Still a Nazi, but I have a feeling they didn’t quite see eye to eye. In any case, it was either kidnap the German rocket scientists, or let the Russians get to them first. That doesn’t mean NASA is Nazi or military. They could make rockets, we couldn’t, and even a broken clock is right twice a day.

              Impressed that someone knows that Atlas was derived from a missile. Most people don’t know that.

    If it’s true - fuck that old piece of shit. Should lose his position.

    Edit: Damn, a guy can’t just make a comment on a meme? I said “if it’s true”. I really don’t care to look into it more than that. It’s ok. You don’t have to tell me I’m technically wrong because they got fired by someone else for the tweet. Still an asshole move for someone just celebrating.

      Did you read the article? He said he had nothing to do with, and couldn’t if he wanted to, her having her internship revoked. It was a result of her using the NASA hashtag that got the attention of the agency.
