“Dad used to say ‘the sky’s the limit.’ Which is probably why he got fired from NASA”

A joke about the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) was posted on Twitter on May 20, 2017:
 
“My Grandpa always said ‘the sky’s the limit’ to encourage me. Now I know why he got fired from @NASA.”
 
“I always used to say that the sky’s the limit, and that’s why I was fired from my job as Director of Interplanetary Exploration at NASA” was posted on Twitter on September 14, 2017.
 
   
Wikipedia: NASA
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA /ˈnæsə/) is an independent agency of the executive branch of the United States federal government responsible for the civilian space program, as well as aeronautics and aerospace research.
 
President Dwight D. Eisenhower established NASA in 1958 with a distinctly civilian (rather than military) orientation encouraging peaceful applications in space science. The National Aeronautics and Space Act was passed on July 29, 1958, disestablishing NASA’s predecessor, the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA). The new agency became operational on October 1, 1958.
 
Since that time, most US space exploration efforts have been led by NASA, including the Apollo Moon landing missions, the Skylab space station, and later the Space Shuttle.
