Gayle Kingcontinues to catch flak online as she defends her trip to space with an all-female crew.
Critics found the comparison tone deaf and said, I think she brought some space back between her ears.
We duplicated the same trajectory that Alan Shepard did back in the day, pretty much.
No one called that a ride, she said.
It was called a flight, it was called a journey.
There was nothing frivolous about what we did, added theCBShost.
Because you do something in space doesnt mean youre taking anything away from Earth, Gayle said.
Gaylecaught plenty of online flak for her statements
She is not an astronaut, one straightforwardly declared.
You took an eleven minute pointless joy ride, for publicity.
The most ridiculous part is they felt this was ground breaking, said another.
We haveactual female astronauts to admire.
I starred in a stage production of My Fair Lady, so that makes me Julie Andrews!!
Another worte, I flew on an airplane…I am as brave as Orville Wright.
I played 2nd base in Little League so I am basically Joe Morgan, said another.
She floated for 10 minutes, congratulations youre a balloon, read another sarcastic comment.
Can Gayle just retire and go away, one netizen harshly said
Thanks!
