Wow! I didn't know she's been involved with NASA all these years. Forget Kirk - I'm hella proud of her.

Giving the "Vulanc" salute no less.

But seriously, that is pretty cool.

Nice to see her looking healthy after the stroke. She's living Roddenberry's dream and is a very inspirational woman.

This is just great.

It was a good from NASA to recruit Nichols in the 70s and I'm happy that this is still going on for all this time. All the best to Mrs. Nichols.

 

[Mytran]

Forget proud, I am just jealous!!!

But honestly, I had no idea she was that involved in NASA, good on her!

Per article, Ms. Nichols helped recruit Sally Ride. I think that's called symbiosis.

I saw she wore headphones in the photo. Do you suppose she was allowed to mention the universal translator?

Actually, I was wondering if she made any jokes about the headphones being bulkier than the earpiece she wore back in the day.

Nice one!

Of course, this time around, she didn't have an entire console to babysit.

Blame the firing of proofreaders/copyeditors and hiring of spell-check, which never bothers to flag such howlers as "public" without the L. I kid you not; I actually found that error once. And yes, I'm a copy chief.

^ I was watching morning news yesterday, and the weather guy was commenting on how clearly you could see the constellation Orion. The caption read "O'Ryan's belt", like it was some kind of Irish clothing accessory. Oh well.

Reminds me of the time I actually saw Osiris spelt out O'Cyrus.

She wasn't twerking by any chance?

An Irish twerk?
