- In this 1-minute, 59-second video, actress Nichelle Nichols flew on board NASA's Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) the world's largest airborne observatory. Ms. Nichols has been collaborating with NASA for years, actively recruiting into the astronaut corps and into STEM careers. In the 1980s, she flew on SOFIA’s predecessor, the Kuiper Airborne Observatory.
During her flight, Ms. Nichols recorded this short message highlighting the important research NASA is doing to further humankind's exploration of the solar system and beyond. The SOFIA aircraft, a 747SP, is operated by NASA's Armstrong Flight Research Center and is based at Hangar 703 in Palmdale, CA.

I met this amazing Lady today at East Cost Comic Con. A awesome meeting with another of my heroes. This Lady exudes love and is an Icon LLAP
This brought a smile to my face. Thank you for sharing.
The woman is a legend in so many ways.
I love everyone involved with this film.
This is what I love about Nichelle. She just didn't play a space traveler on TV, she truly embraced NASA and it's real-life mission of space exploration.
RIP sweet lady. 💔😪
God bless you nichelle, you will be very missed and you were one lovely classy lady.
I actually cried watching this
She lived a great life. Rip
Good to see Nichelle supporting the sciences, and NASA using a member of the original Star Trek series to sponsor their endeavor.Live long and prosper Nichelle.
So cool to see Nichelle going up with SOFIA. We'll done, NASA!
When I become a "Gray Panther", I want to be like Nichelle! Well done! It gives me hope!
This is just plain awesome!
Live long and prosper, Nichelle!
#UhuraForever
Awesome to see you enjoying yourself up there in the stratosphere Nichelle. I think I'm in love with you all over again. :¬)
LLAP, Nichelle! NASA is LUCKY to have you.
The closest relationship to actual space exploration of any Star Trek actor. I just love Nichelle Nichols so much! LLAP!
This comment still holds even after Shatner's flight aboard New Shepard.
I mean, Dr. Mae Jemison was a Mission Specialist on STS-47 and played a transporter technician on the TNG episode Second Chances
Nichelle is a very beautiful and classy lady. NASA could not have chosen a more ideal spokesperson. Love you Nichelle!
I have met a few incredible people while travelling this world. Meeting Nichelle still heads the list.
Byw yn hir a fynnu, Nichelle. A cariad o Gymru.
I remember seeing footage of her weightless years ago and for some reason convinced myself she'd been to the ISS. I swear there was a picture of her in the Cupola saying "peak geek has been acheived". Oh well.
Maybe you're thinking of Astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti.
See you beyond the stars in a land where we'll ever live long and prosper 🖖 You were an inspiration!
Ms Nichols is a beautiful legend. Praying God heals her Act 2: 38 John 3:5 . She is a praying woman.
❤🔭🚀🎆
less than 2 minutes of footage of a 10 hour flight.
I am watching Hidden Figures while seeing this.
Do you suffer on schizophrenia ? Or which of the two videos is so boring, to watch another one in parallel ?
