What an awesome picture! You should post it to the Spock/Uhura comm if someone hasn't done so. She looks amazing.

Sweet! I can just hear the dinner conversation:

"Guess what? I got to meet the President of the United States!"

"Guess what? I got to meet Lieutenant Uhura!"

I found the rest of the story:

Nichols posted the snapshot on Twitter on Tuesday, writing: “Taken 2/29/12 in the Oval Office - Live Long & Prosper!”

At the time of her White House visit, the actress tweeted, “Months ago Pres Obama was quoted as saying that he'd had a crush on me when he was younger. I asked about that & he proudly confirmed it! … President Obama also confirmed for me that he was definitely a Trekker! How wonderful is that?!”

So very cool! I love them both. Ms. Nichols for inspiring me when I was a girl, and Mr. Obama for inspiring me in my middle age.

Hooray for enlightened folk!
