About this episode
The Janitor at NASA
In the early 1960s, during the height of the space race, President John F. Kennedy toured NASA headquarters. The country was locked in fierce competition with the Soviet Union to put the first man on the moon, and the stakes couldn’t have been higher.
As JFK walked through the facility, he paused when he noticed a janitor sweeping the hallway late in the evening. Curious, the President stepped over and asked, “Why are you working so late? What are you doing here?”
Without hesitation, the janitor looked up and said, “Mr. President, I’m helping put a man on the moon.”
