You are absolutely incredible in what you do. You have the ability to reach people through social media.
We can reach people who never got any word about NASA. Some of them didn’t have an interest in NASA.
Just by your being here and doing what you do, you’ve opened up avenues of communication for us.
Literally millions more people than we used to communicate with before.
— Administrator Charlie Bolden to NASA Social participants
