in 261 00:29:09,170 --> 00:29:05,310 that sharing to find the strength to 262 00:29:13,010 --> 00:29:09,180 bear our sorrow and the courage to look 263 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:13,020 for the seeds of hope our nation's loss 264 00:29:19,190 --> 00:29:16,170 is first a profound personal loss to the 265 00:29:23,180 --> 00:29:19,200 family the friends and the loved ones of 266 00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:23,190 our shuttle astronauts the best we can 267 00:29:30,380 --> 00:29:27,450 do is remember our seven astronauts our 268 00:29:34,820 --> 00:29:30,390 Challenger seven remember them as they 269 00:29:37,910 --> 00:29:34,830 lived bringing life and love and joy to 270 00:29:42,710 --> 00:29:37,920 those who knew them and pride to a 271 00:29:45,860 --> 00:29:42,720 nation they came from all parts of this 272 00:29:50,140 --> 00:29:45,870 great country from South Carolina to 273 00:29:53,900 --> 00:29:50,150 Washington State Ohio to Mohawk New York 274 00:29:58,010 --> 00:29:53,910 Hawaii to North Carolina to Concord New 275 00:29:59,960 --> 00:29:58,020 Hampshire they were so different yet in 276 00:30:03,550 --> 00:29:59,970 their mission their quest they held so 277 00:30:06,410 --> 00:30:03,560 much in common the future is not free 278 00:30:09,650 --> 00:30:06,420 the story of all human progress is one 279 00:30:12,530 --> 00:30:09,660 of a struggle against all odds we 280 00:30:14,810 --> 00:30:12,540 learned again that this America which 281 00:30:16,180 --> 00:30:14,820 Abraham Lincoln called the last best 282 00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:16,190 hope of man on earth 283 00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:19,730 was built on heroism and noble sacrifice 284 00:30:26,210 --> 00:30:23,130 it was built by men and women like our 285 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:26,220 seventh star voyagers who answered a 286 00:30:32,420 --> 00:30:29,970 call beyond duty who gave more than was 287 00:30:37,370 --> 00:30:32,430 expected or required and who gave it 288 00:30:40,610 --> 00:30:37,380 little thought of worldly reward today 289 00:30:43,820 --> 00:30:40,620 the frontier is space and the boundaries 290 00:30:46,940 --> 00:30:43,830 of human knowledge sometimes when we 291 00:30:48,740 --> 00:30:46,950 reach for the stars we fall short but we 292 00:30:51,529 --> 00:30:48,750 must pick ourselves up again and press 293 00:30:55,620 --> 00:30:51,539 on despite the pain 294 00:30:58,049 --> 00:30:55,630 our nation is indeed fortunate that we 295 00:31:01,529 --> 00:30:58,059 can still draw on immense reservoirs of 296 00:31:03,830 --> 00:31:01,539 courage character and fortitude that 297 00:31:06,049 --> 00:31:03,840 we're still blessed with heroes like 298 00:31:08,509 --> 00:31:06,059 those of the space shuttle Challenger 299 00:31:14,789 -->
