Grinning school-age children who took part in a NASA YouTube video about space exploration featuring Vice President Kamala Harris have been revealed to be child actors who tried out by reading scripts.

The VP took part in the "video from the Naval Observatory, where the vice president's residence is located – and took some grief on social media for her wide-eyed exclamations about the wonders of space.

'You're going to literally see the craters on the moon with your own eyes!' Harris said during the video. With your own eyes! I'm telling you, it is going to be unbelievable,' she says in the YouTube Kids' special for World Space Week.

Children who took part in the event appeared to be delighted to be there. They were child actors who tried out to be in the videos, California station KSBW reported.
