- Look at that.
- That's beautiful.

:01:46
This is one of the most thrilling
moments of my life I guarantee you.

:02:00
The great adventure of going to the
moon may never happen again in our life.

:02:04
Manned space flight will continue...
:02:06
and there is adventure to be found
in high Earth orbit.

:02:10
Robots have already gone
to other worlds:

:02:12
The valleys of Mars, the clouds
and moons of Jupiter.

:02:15
There is a brand of adventure
to be had...

:02:17
in such a long-distance mode
of human participation.

:02:20
But the satisfaction and the sudden
emptiness of an adventure completed...

:02:25
are intangible human concepts.
:02:27
The argument can be made that mankind
cannot bear witness to an event...

:02:30
unless one of mankind has
experienced the adventure firsthand.

:02:35
Not necessarily first, mind you,
just firsthand.

:02:39
It is certainly not necessary
to be Neil Armstrong...

:02:42
to have experienced
the great adventure found...

:02:45
in a voyage
from the Earth to the moon.
