00:00:15,110 --> 00:00:13,440
who blazed trails

7
00:00:17,029 --> 00:00:15,120
but didn't boast

8
00:00:19,109 --> 00:00:17,039
a high achiever who never sought

9
00:00:21,670 --> 00:00:19,119
attention or accolades

10
00:00:23,830 --> 00:00:21,680
instead she used her success to help

11
00:00:25,109 --> 00:00:23,840
countless others to follow in her

12
00:00:26,790 --> 00:00:25,119
footsteps

13
00:00:29,550 --> 00:00:26,800
she helped others find their path

14
00:00:48,670 --> 00:00:29,560
forward

our star when i wake up in the morning

18
00:01:06,469 --> 00:01:05,360

00:01:12,950 --> 00:01:10,960
has a statue of hampton university

22
00:01:15,830 --> 00:01:12,960
that i can go visit

23
00:01:18,070 --> 00:01:15,840
a community center in hampton that my

24
00:01:20,310 --> 00:01:18,080
kids will be attending next year

25
00:01:22,310 --> 00:01:20,320
a movie that i can put on the big screen

26
00:01:24,469 --> 00:01:22,320
at any time i want

27
00:01:26,469 --> 00:01:24,479
a congressional gold medal

28
00:01:28,390 --> 00:01:26,479

nasa's headquarters

30
00:01:31,749 --> 00:01:30,079
there's no words that can explain how

31
00:01:34,069 --> 00:01:31,759
i'm feeling right now because of

32
00:01:37,109 --> 00:01:34,079
engineers like mary w jackson

33
00:01:38,550 --> 00:01:37,119
america and the world was not only able

34
00:01:40,789 --> 00:01:38,560
to dream of

35
00:01:43,990 --> 00:01:40,799
landing among the stars

36
00:01:45,350 --> 00:01:44,000
but to make that dream a reality my hope

37
00:01:47,670 --> 00:01:45,360
is that when we are safely able to

38
00:01:49,830 --> 00:01:47,680
return to work in person

39
00:01:52,230 --> 00:01:49,840
walking through the doors of the mary w

40
00:01:54,870 --> 00:01:52,240
jackson nasa headquarters each morning
