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.

The good news is that I learned about a great American but the bad is that I weep about America’s future if this POS ex-intern is the norm.

Maybe if she wants a future in the aerospace industry she should become a feathery instead of a furry.

What is a 75-YO man, who is on the NASA oversight committee doing posting on a “furry” chat-board?

Looking to dibble in Tribbles, obviously.

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

Maybe her furry costume is a camel or goat.

If I were an employer, I wouldn’t let her anywhere near my place of business.

With that potty mouth, so to speak, she might qualify for a job cleaning toilets.

Mr. Hickam is a pretty nice fellow to try to help her out of the jam she got herself into but she doesn’t deserve it.

“Kids really should know their own field...”

She was probably working in HR or the cafeteria.

Why would he lift a finger to get this despicable bitch even a job at McDonalds? Bizarre white guilt by Hickam to "feel bad" she was fired after her and her friends' vile tweets.

Given NASA’s record for the past few decades, we’re not talkin’ an agency comprised of leaders and doers.

Maybe he doesn’t want to be accused of Moabitophobia. Actually Naomi was from Bethlehem in Judah—it was her daughters-in-law Orpha and Ruth who were Moabites (Moabitesses?).
