    ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!

    In the film, Nichelle Nichols came off truly as a human, with a charisma about her that drew you in, despite the monumental path that she blazed. The film shows you just how far, essentially anybody, can go in life. Nichelle played a vital role in creating a more diverse space program, and arguably a more diverse and fair country as well.

    "Women in Motion"

    The film Woman in Motion is inspirational, and exceptional. Nichelle Nichols is very inspiring for people that are trying to accomplish what she did, she also made history. Her life was also interesting, it was interesting, because at the beginning of her life she wasn't thinking about becoming what she is, she just wanted to be a singer, then she went on to become very inspirational.

    Nichelle Nichols is an inspiration to all...Best Documentary film...very captivating

    I allowed my 8th grade Science and high school Astronomy Students to view this incredible movie! It will become a staple in my class from now on. To say Nichelle Nichols is inspiring is an understatement! One of the best documentaries I have ever had the privilege to see and share with students.

    Well Done Film

    I loved this movie, it was very inspirational. Nichelle Nichols played a crucial role in allowing women and African Americans into NASA and the space programs. She was also the first African American women to play a role on national television.
