So today I have been watching “When We Left Earth” on discovery channel. I watched the special originally when it came out a while back and I loved it. The astronauts that agreed to go into space with no guarantee of success were complete badasses. While most people would be saying prayers prior to launch, one astronaut famously said “let’s light a fire under this candle!” Another said simply, “don’t fuck this up.” EPIC.
Stop watching TV and return to your work. The rest of us on this planet are holding our collective breath waiting for you to get off the couch. (Admittedly, “When We Left Earth” is captivating television fare).
