History Will Remember The Twentieth Century For Two Technological Developments: Atomic Energy And Space Flight.
I Am Excited To Think That The Development Of Commercial Capabilities To Send Humans Into Low Earth Orbit Will Likely Result In So Many More Earthlings Being Able To Experience The Transformative Power Of Space Flight.
Retain The Vision For Space Exploration. If We Turn Our Backs On The Vision Again, We're Going To Have To Live In A Secondary Position In Human Space Flight For The Rest Of The Century.
The Urge To Explore Has Propelled Evolution Since The First Water Creatures Reconnoitered The Land. Like All Living Systems, Cultures Cannot Remain Static; They Evolve Or Decline. They Explore Or Expire. . . . Beyond All Rationales, Space Flight Is A Spiritual Quest In The Broadest Sense, One Promising A Revitalization Of Humanity And A Rebirth Of Hope No Less Profound Than The Great Opening Out Of Mind And Spirit At The Dawn Of Our Modern Age.
