Giant Leap

Posted by influxaaron on 07 March 13

When I orbited the Earth in a spaceship, I saw for the first time how beautiful our planet is. Mankind, let us preserve and increase this beauty, and not destroy it!

Dinosaurs are extinct today because they lacked opposable thumbs and the brainpower to build a space program.

That’s one small step for [a] man, one giant leap for mankind.

Never in all their history have men been able truly to conceive of the world as one: a single sphere, a globe, having the qualities of a globe, a round earth in which all the directions eventually meet, in which there is no center because every point, or none, is center — an equal earth which all men occupy as equals. The airman’s earth, if free men make it, will be truly round: a globe in practice, not in theory.
