Hello Earthlings

from Failing Up · host Timothy Mahar

After just watching the Artemis II go around the darkside of the moon and viewing the crescent earth, I was in awe and how small our planet is in a vast universe.  As they sent back a photo of the full earth in the darkness of space, just like the one taken in 1972, I was struck by beauty of earth.  This fragile planet that we al share and have found ways to destroy eachother and it.   John Lennon had it right: "Imagine there's no countries, It isn't hard to do, nothing to kill or die for, and no religion too, imagine all the people living life in peace." For some reason seeing our planet from 225,000 miles away makes that seem not so much like a dream.  Robert Kennedy, "some men see things as they are and say "Why?" I dream things that never were and say, "Why not?"Why not??timothymahar.org
