NASA DAY OF REMEMBRANCE 2019

It's somehow fitting that this day of the week that we usually post something that inspires us, happens to fall on the day that NASA remembers those it lost.

I'm sure most of us here, depending on our various ages, can remember exactly where we were on the day of any of these tragedies.

"We will never forget them, nor the last time we saw them...as they waved goodbye and slipped the surly bonds of Earth to touch the face of God".
