It Takes A Few Years To Prepare For A Space Mission.

But Even In Elementary School And Junior High, I Was Very Interested In Space And In The Space Program.

The View Of Earth Is Spectacular From Space. Most People Imagine That When Astronauts Look Out The Window Of The Shuttle They See The Whole Earth Like That Big Blue Marble That Was Made Famous By The Flights That Went To The Moon. But The Shuttle Is Much, Much Closer Than Those Astronauts Were. So We Don't See The Whole Planet, The Whole Ball At Once, We Just See Parts Of It.

That's Something That Is Almost Part Of Being Human And I'm Certain That Will Continue.
