NASA intern who unwittingly told a legendary space expert to 'suck my.....' on Twitter is fired
Daily Mail ^ | 23 August 2018 | Harry Petit

Naomi, who claims to be 21 years old, then replied: 'Suck my d**k and b***s I'm working at NASA'. But the boorish intern was left red-faced when Hickam responded: 'And I am on the National Space Council that oversees NASA.' Her online friends then replied to Hickam with insulting tweets and included the hashtag 'NASA', which brought it to the attention of the space agency.

Hickam later said in a blog post he learned that the unnamed intern had been fired by Nasa, who saw her tweets, following their exchange, and sympathised with her.

The NASA legend has revealed he is doing all he can to help Naomi secure a future in the aerospace sector that is better than the opportunity she lost.

The 75-year-old said he did not personally complain to Nasa before the woman was stripped of her offer, and that he never intended to get her in trouble.

He blamed Naomi's 'friends' for her dismissal, claiming they spread the exchange on social media long after he deleted his tweets for fear of getting the intern in trouble.

It is not known where in America Naomi lives, but she identifies as a furry - a subculture who enjoy dressing up as cartoon-inspired animals.

Umm... It’s not just playing dress up in animal costumes, there’s also a perverse sexual component. Check it out for yourself.

In case anyone on FR doesn’t follow the link, “Hickam” is Homer Hickam - famous for the autobiographical book http://homerhickam.com/project/rocket-boys/ and for the movie https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/October_Sky about his life. Kids really should know their own field; this is like a young pollster (my field) mouthing off to George Gallup (except that George died many years ago).

likely amish according to the pics; would be consistent with getting the internship and the over-the-top vulgarity ...

I’ve read about it before. The articles I’ve seen say that only a certain percentage take part in the sexual activities and the number equates with ComicCon, Trekkies, StarWars, Hot Rodders, matchbook collectors or any other group hobby.

This reminds me of the snowflakes who didn’t like the dress code at the company where they were interning. They got a petition together and put together what they thought to be “a very professional presentation arguing their case for changing the dress code”. After they presented it to upper management, they were all walked out the door. They were probably stunned that management didn’t acquiesce to their desires.

“she” is about 99% likely to be an actual “he”

It says she is from Singapore, but I’m pretty sure that picture was taken in Milan.

'Suck my d**k and b***s I'm working at NASA'.

"Her" - so "she" could be anatomically a "he"? One of 0bama's "confused"?

In his/her defense though, I worked with a LOT of NASA people who had similar attitudes. That's why The Challenger blew up.

What the hell for!? She is clearly incapable of securing such a position let alone keep it.

I'm sorry... I don't understand how any of this advances Muslim outreach.

It doesn’t matter anymore.

I was taking some sort of marketing survey today, and one question was:

Do you consider yourself:
a) Male
b) Female
c) Something Else
