For the uninitiated, the actual context was Naomi used celebratory expletives, the man overseeing the NASA internships asked them to maybe calm down, and the user then told him to "suck my dick I'm going to NASA" before being informed who they were talking to.

Before this happened, I actually knew who Homer Hickam was because I had read October Sky, made the whole tweet chain just that slight bit funnier.
I was just googling him to see if he was the October sky guy.
