Apollo 13
From the Earth to the Moon

I have been remiss, my friends, I missed STS-124 in its entirety: Stationlink. Though I sorely wish Apollos 18, 19, and 20 had gone to the Moon as originally planned, and that we had continued to push manned spaceflight beyond the boundaries of low Earth orbit, I will never hold with those naysayers who claim we have squandered the last three and a half decades to no purpose. The Space Shuttle is the wonder of the age, and even before it is completed the International Space Station is already a marvel.

And speaking of marvels and wonders of the age, next up is STS-125, the latest servicing mission to the most amazing scientific instrument known to Man, the august Hubble Space Telescope: Hubblelink.

Science!
Phoenix has joined our robotic Corps of Discovery! N.A.S.A.link and B.B.C.link. And after the joy and celebration of a safe arrival, the work, the advancement of the frontiers of science, begins: icelink.

Elsewhere on the Red Planet, M2K4 has become M2K8 as Opportunity and Spirit roll on, years and years past their initially planned 90-day lifespans: roverlink. magnificent old warhorses, those two.

And lest you think our mechanical minions are merely on Mars, the groundwork is being laid for Project Constellation's return to the Moon: Lunarlink.

Commentary: Tonight, an oblique reference to the Moon that has so entranced me over the last three Sundays of When We Left Earth and tonight's broadcast of In the Shadow of the Moon.

Between now and the morrow, I hope to dream of our return to the Moon.
