Nichelle Nichols, famous for her role as Lieutenant Nyota Uhura on Star Trek, was an actress, a dancer, an ambassador for NASA, and most importantly, a role model at a time when African American women were usually relegated to roles as housekeepers and servants on television. In a recent CNN interview with Sheena McKenzie, 82-year-old Nichols talks about what she considers the most important message she delivered in her career: “Science is not a boy's game, it's not a girl's game. It's everyone's game. It's about where we are and where we're going.”

When the original Star Trek series ended, Nichols turned her attention to attracting more diverse candidates to NASA. “There were no women, and there were no minorities in the space program -- and that's supposed to represent the whole country?” she told McKenzie incredulously. “Not in this day and age. We just absolutely cannot have that.” So she accepted NASA’s invitation to help recruit the country’s first female astronauts and astronauts of color -- among them Sally Ride, the first American woman in space. “Sally called me to tell me that I was the way she had heard about the space program,” Nichols says. “I had gone on television and in several interviews spoke of why [women] should get involved, and they took it up and said 'she's absolutely right.'”

Today, Nichols is proud of the role she played in increasing diversity, both on television and in science. And she encourages the young people of today to continue to look to the stars: “Space travel benefits us here on Earth [a]nd we ain't stopped yet. There's more exploration to come.”
