Here comes the negative comments from the Trump 'Crashed The US Capital' supporters!

Nasa should be more focused on it’s quality of engineering then considering the lives that have been lost due to sloppiness.

Just rename the entire country New Africa !!!

This is so touching. Thank you.

Black History is American History. BHM

Love it!

Awesome! Now.. moving on

NASA is the best of America.

Congrats you strong African queen 👸🏿 🙌🏿🔥💙💦

Awesome!!!

You are nothing without this Man.

She really is an important part of Nasa's history. Keep up the good work by the way nasa!

These are suppose to be NASA's finest? What the hell are they doing wearing these stupid masks? Creditability - GONE!

Mary W. Jackson's work is worthy of respect. The constant highlighting of race is not. You're scientists - but this is no longer science. It is fear, and the desperate urge that comes with it to blend into the scenery

congratulations! Nasa

We know aliens are on the planet, we know aliens have visited the planted before, we know aliens are behind the enhancement of life. Is it needed?

This is awesome and I'm happy for her. But please, don't make this a political statement sort of thing in lieu of everything going on in this crazy world and country these days. Make sure it's about a genuine, honest respect and appreciation for Mary because of what she did

This is tokenism. It could have had some value if this was done some 35 years ago as she retired or, at the very least, while she lived.

Lose the masks for Pete's sake.

NASA's DC headquarters is being renamed for 'Hidden Figures' scientist Mary JacksonMary W. Jackson worked at NASA for 34 years, starting as a research mathematician and eventually was promoted to become the agency's first Black female engineer. A monumental Hidden Figure, the space agency is now honoring her contributions by naming its Washington, DC headquarters after her. While this is a wonderful and long overdue honor. I can’t help but wonder if her name was Marquisha Jukobo instead of Mary Jackson, would we still be waiting. TheValuesVoter 🙌🙌🏻🙌🏼🙌🏽🙌🏾🙌🏿
