One of the first qualifications to be an astronaut is to be a person of “good character”. Buzzzzzzzz. Also, anyone with any desire to be an astronaut goes for a STEM major in college, not political science. Buzzzzzzzz again. This women simply cannot communicate via any medium without being a fountainhead of lies.

As a woman a little girl is a girl before puberty. At 15, I wouldn't consider her little, that's high school age, driving age even. Not a little girl.

MidAirMan · 2019-10-22T15:01:56+00:00

Saying this today holds no relevance. The entire process was experimental and the strain on the human body is intense. It makes sense that back then they would only take men as they are stronger. Plus the country doesn't really care if a man dies, but if a woman gets a paper cut its a national tragedy.

Let me say that I am absolutely not a fan of Hillary. Unfortunately letters of rejection on the basis of being a woman do exist from around the time Hillary would have been 15-16. Not proof that she sent a letter, but it is possible. https://i.imgur.com/1n8OyEG.jpg

daeronryuujin · 2019-10-22T08:11:03+00:00

Not saying Hillary Clinton wouldn't lie about this, because I wouldn't be surprised, but WaPo and others (including NASA) have done a lot of digging and found this to be consistent with the sort of letters sent at the time.

castor281 · 2019-10-22T22:09:05+00:00

Okay lets break this down.

Clinton born October 26, 1947

NASA created in July 29, 1958 - Clinton is 10 years old

Project Mercury approved October 7, 1958 - Clinton 19 days from being 11 years old.

NASA announces first astronaut candidates April 9, 1959 - Clinton is 11 years old.

Alan B. Shepard becomes first American in space May 5, 1961 - Clinton is 13 years old.

JFK announces moon landing goal May 25, 1961 - Clinton is 13 years old.

So this guy is off about the first American in space by 1 calendar year and Clinton's age by 2 years. Yeah I'm gonna have to call bullshit. Even if some of you assholes think a 15 year old isn't a little girl, Clinton was 10-13 years old during these events so fuck off.

onoitsajackass · 2019-10-22T13:59:38+00:00

wodaji · 2019-10-22T17:33:36+00:00

Yes, quit your bullshit. Even NASA representative accepted it happened.

"Clinton wrote the letter sometime around 1960. It wasn’t until 1978 that the first female astronaut candidates were admitted into the program. A NASA representative told CNBC Make It that the letter was “a reflection of the early 1960′s culture when astronauts were required to be military test pilots. We believe NASA today embraces the race and gender diversity that reflects America and its values.”

So, she wrote to NASA in her early teens and was told that she wouldn't be able to apply because she was a girl. How does any of that not fit the facts? NASA was, and still is, taking applications for astronaut for future missions.

Jenikysses · 2019-10-22T18:38:11+00:00

I dont see how NASA’s response contradicts her story? Are they basing it off of..what age is considered “little girl”, or when they had an astronaut in space...because she disnt say anything about going in space. Maybe there is an elephant that I am missing...

james-oberg · 2019-10-25T03:59:16+00:00

As a historian, I had expressed doubt because in the subsequent half century not a single copy of any such letters had ever appeared. After much searching, NASA archivists recently did find another letter to another girl that fit Clinton's description. So the story in general is not impossible. www.jamesoberg.com

pyrobryan · 2019-10-28T22:14:50+00:00

I'm not saying it's necessarily true, but she specified that she was in 8th grade when she wrote the letter, which would have made her around 13 years old (around 1960), and as others have pointed out, NASA didn't accept women in to the space program until the late 70's. So there's nothing terribly unbelievable about the story except that NASA would have written back to say "nO giRlS aLloWEd", which still isn't impossible.

PrussianCollusion · 2019-10-29T02:26:54+00:00

I don’t quite understand why this can’t be true, timeline-wise. Per Wikipedia:

“The first known formal use of the term astronautics in the scientific community was the establishment of the annual International Astronautical Congress in 1950, and the subsequent founding of the International Astronautical Federation the following year.”

The first group of astronauts were publicly named as such by NASA in 1959, when she was 12. I mean I can’t stand that woman and it’s most likely bullshit, but the timeline makes sense.

Dadotox · 2020-03-20T21:19:17+00:00

MMh... I don't know, having first astronaut in space when she was 15 is kind of meaningless, the question is at what year did NASA make public there would an astronaut needed. It could technically have happened when she was 10-11.

This is a bit poor tbh.

TRBashinTrash · 2020-03-31T20:22:03+00:00

Considering her age, the memories between being 15 and being 9 would likely blend together, so it still could have happened.

If that were true and it was me, I would have kept that letter. Worked my ass off to prove them wrong. And then I would hand them the letter when I got the job and then say “no thanks, I don’t work for men.” But I am just a stubborn female engineer. :) She chose the wrong career path to become an astronaut. It takes a lot of hard work and dedication to make it through engineering.

I doubt she wrote anything to NASA, but wouldn't it be great if they shot her into space anyways?

SoniKzone · 2019-10-22T16:14:35+00:00

??? I don't understand how it's totally impossible for this to have happened? Even assuming that the public was completely unaware of astronauts until they were in space (and I almost guarantee the concept existed before they were actually sent to space), she still could've written them immediately after they were.

I swear, this sub has gone from "Fuck women who game the system" to just "Fuck women".

Drum_Stick_Ninja · 2019-10-22T18:20:21+00:00

Retarded republicans. At least your ass hat of a president is getting the attention he deserves. Here, let me school you morons a little.

(1) NACA was NASA before NASA was NASA.
(2) First astronaut in space was 1961, not 1962.
(3) First astronauts were announced April 1959
(4) That would put Hillary at 12 when they were first announced. But I guess to a bunch of angry old beaten white people don't think 12 yrs old is a little girl.
(5) I also put you into the same category as flat earthers if you seriously don't think NASA denied millions of little girls.

15 years old is still considered a little girl tho.

Spez_Dispenser · 2019-10-22T13:05:18+00:00

....is this really that implausible?

Was the concept of being an astronaut so removed from reality for people in the 50s? No, I don't think so.

What is the meaning of "little girl" here by Clinton? Surely someone who has lived as long as her could be referring to an age bracket such as 8-17. You are still a "little girl" when you are an edgy teen. If Hilary wrote this at the upper end of this age domain, the letter would be 1964 even. This is even around the age where you are forming your educational aspirations.

This isn't removed from reality, nor is it even that crazy. I've never been a Hilary-apologist before (you can even check my comment history), but this SICK BURN comes from someone whose rhetoric is really not all that impressive.

afuaf7 · 2019-10-22T13:18:30+00:00

Sorry but no that reply is the bullshit here. By her childhood she obviously means her teen years, when NASA was massive. In fact in a lot of places it was normal to have an assignment in school to write to NASA. NASA even confirmed this and apologized to her, saying that it was a different time

Just because they weren't in space that doesn't mean they weren't training to be, and I'm pretty sure that's what she meant

Spheresdeep · 2019-10-22T12:24:21+00:00

I mean, that would be the years she was 11 and 14 so that can still be considered a little girl.

a_lot_of_aaaaaas · 2019-10-22T12:47:02+00:00

So she could wrote it when she was 15? That's a little girl to me. Maybe not in 2019 but when I was 15 me and my friends still played with toys.

"What like with a cloth?" This woman thinks you are stupid enough to fall for something like this. Also the fact that shes making a joke out of her crimes, and feigning ignorance of computers when shes used one in the government for who knows how many years. She's pure evil, and thinks you're stupid enough to let her get away with it.

I don't get it. Couldn't she have written the letter at 12 or 13?

Wow, I'm constantly amazed at the mental gymnastics people will go through to hate on Hillary.

These are the same people that are saying Greta is a child who should go home.

It's almost as if they're dishonest shills who will take any position as long as it furthers their narrative.

Then again, I should probably consider the sub I'm commenting in, but also fuck this guy.

Wouldn't she be 15 then?
