By now, you may have seen all the mockery Vice President Mike Pence has received for touching something at NASAS that had a rather blatant DO NOT TOUCH sign on it:

The Vice President toured the Kennedy Space Center yesterday, and that picture got roundly mocked on Twitter:

Well, now Pence is getting in on it too, tweeting out a jokey mea culpa today:

And as far as NASA’s concerned, it’s all good:
It was OK to touch the surface. Those are just day-to-day reminder signs. We were going to clean it anyway. It was an honor to host you! https://t.co/gu8zxknsJv
