But it's not all a laughing matter -- that sign's up for a reason. NASA issued a statement Friday that was very kind to Pence and explained that the "do not touch sign" on the titanium forward bay cover for the Orion spacecraft is just a "day-to-day reminder."
NASA went on, "Procedures require the hardware to be cleaned before tiles are bonded to the spacecraft, so touching the surface is okay. Otherwise, the hardware would have had a protective cover over it like the thermal heat shield, which was nearby."
So Pence didn't mess anything up, but Twitter didn't let him off the hook like NASA did.
