OMG...this is just...

Wow.

Thank you, NASA.

[elisi]

It really is. :)

Gorgeous in every way. SPACE doesn't care about your orientation...

"Better than George Takei???" :-)

Go, NASA!

[elisi]

That ending was totally the icing on the cake! :D

[elisi]

May they boldly go... :)

I might have teared up too, until the very end when I squeed.

I love the message, and I'm trying to stifle the cynic in me which is pointing out how this could hurt them when trying to acquire funding from congress. I'm gonna try and wallow in the awesome instead.

I think that's definitely the correct response! :)

This could be a thing? Good grief. Don't want them liberals to go to space...

*cries all over everything*

I'm such a wimp. It Gets Better videos always get me.

It totally does though. And I love that NASA made one, and that it has such variation in ages and positions and ethnicities: that corollary message, that it doesn't define you and there are lots of ways your life can go and lots of places you can find acceptance, is so important.

Also WHAT UP TRANS REPRESENTATION

[elisi]

This one was just beautiful, yes. Partly because it's NASA and NASA are all about the future and exploration and it's so OBVIOUS that it makes no difference whether you're gay or straight or trans or whatever... What they care about it that you're *smart* and can do the job!
