I Remember It Was Hard

Space Architectures Capable Of Supporting A Permanent Human Presence On Mars Are Extraordinarily Complex, With Many Different Interdependent Systems.

My Own American Dream Was To Serve My Country As Best I Could And Make A Difference In America - And In The World.

I Would Rather People Understand That There Is A Very, Very Fortunate American Who Was Given The Opportunity, And Was In The Right Place At The Right Time To Have The Moment Of A Lifetime. My Mother Was Born - Her Name Was Marianne Moon. And She Was Born In 1903, The Year That The Wright Brothers First Flew.

I Think It's Inevitable That There Will Be Earthlings Establishing A Presence On Mars. And I Would Say That It Would Certainly Take Place By 2050 Or Shortly Thereafter.

The Moon I See Now Is The Same Moon I Saw Before. Except That Before, When I Looked At It, It Was In Anticipation Of What It Would Be Like When I Got There. That's Behind Me Now.
