You have a quote from Gayle King, a "TV personality" who went on a totally frivolous space flight with absolutely zero scientific value, but you illustrate it with a picture of NASA.
My wife described this as jaunt as "patronizing to women and ultra-capitalist" and I can't think of a better way to describe it.
"[...] speaking to Elle ahead of the flight, the crewmates discussed wearing makeup and doing their hair for the brief spaceflight.
