00:12:44,720 ride to space 411 00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:46,790 ride to space we know our travels are only the first 412 00:12:46,790 --> 00:12:46,800 we know our travels are only the first 413 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,509 we know our travels are only the first steps of a long and difficult journey 414 00:12:49,509 --> 00:12:49,519 steps of a long and difficult journey 415 00:12:49,519 --> 00:12:51,269 steps of a long and difficult journey the vision we have shared with you is 416 00:12:51,269 --> 00:12:51,279 the vision we have shared with you is 417 00:12:51,279 --> 00:12:52,790 the vision we have shared with you is only the beginning 418 00:12:52,790 --> 00:12:52,800 only the beginning 419 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,110 only the beginning the solar system and the universe are 420 00:12:55,110 --> 00:12:55,120 the solar system and the universe are 421 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:57,110 the solar system and the universe are waiting to be explored 422 00:12:57,110 --> 00:12:57,120 waiting to be explored 423 00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:59,190 waiting to be explored propulsion will lead the way 424 00:12:59,190 --> 00:12:59,200 propulsion will lead the way 425 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:01,509 propulsion will lead the way we are proud to help pave the way for 426 00:13:01,509 --> 00:13:01,519 we are proud to help pave the way for 427 00:13:01,519 --> 00:13:09,990 we are proud to help pave the way for our nation's ride to the future 428 00:13:09,990 --> 00:13:10,000 429 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,470 propulsion technology will reach beyond 430 00:13:12,470 --> 00:13:12,480 propulsion technology will reach beyond 431 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:15,030 propulsion technology will reach beyond the space shuttle as we continue the 432 00:13:15,030 --> 00:13:15,040 the space shuttle as we continue the 433 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:17,750 the space shuttle as we continue the technologies for communications earth 434 00:13:17,750 --> 00:13:17,760 technologies for communications earth 435 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:21,430 technologies for communications earth observations and earth space operations 436 00:13:21,430 --> 00:13:21,440 observations and earth space operations 437 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:24,389 observations and earth space operations the ability to launch and explore from 438 00:13:24,389 --> 00:13:24,399 the ability to launch and explore from 439 00:13:24,399 --> 00:13:26,870 the ability to launch and explore from the platform of space station freedom 440 00:13:26,870 --> 00:13:26,880 the platform of space station freedom 441 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:29,990 the platform of space station freedom and a lunar base will help us ultimately 442 00:13:29,990 --> 00:13:30,000 and a lunar base will help us ultimately 443 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:46,870 and a lunar base will help us ultimately reach mars and other outer planets 444 00:13:46,870 --> 00:13:46,880 445 00:13:46,880 --> 00:15:18,550 yeah i highly recommend it 446 00:15:18,550 --> 00:15:18,560 447 00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:20,639 you
