Must have felt a little left out
Text content
"Thank you, God, for keeping us safe"; "NASA Engineers"
Overview
This is a two-panel humor meme that plays on the context of successful NASA space missions and Pakistan's failed lunar mission attempt. The top panel features NASA astronaut Victor Glover celebrating excitedly with raised fists after a successful mission, in front of an American flag, overlaid with the quote "Thank you, God, for keeping us safe". The bottom panel shows a stern, unimpressed bald man of South Asian descent standing with hands on his hips, labeled as "NASA Engineers" — the joke references that many NASA engineers are of South Asian descent, and the man (a Pakistani politician) is implied to feel left out of the celebration after his home country's failed space mission, resulting in his grumpy expression.
