Dr. Tracy Scott

He was with my dad on Apollo 9.

And what he talks about is you see, again, in this vastness of space, it's all black except for the white of the stars, the gray of the moon.

And the only color you see is this little blue earth.

little blue marble, and you think, oh my gosh, that's where all my people are, right?

And yes, my family, but everybody else is like family.

Everyone's in this together.

And what are we doing?

What are we doing, right?

Yeah, so it's this really interesting perspective.

Yes, this has been out there for a long time.

There was a great quote by Norman Cousins, who was an editor of the Saturday Review, where he said, what is most significant about the lunar voyage is not that man set foot on the moon, but that he set eye on Earth.

And that, to me, epitomizes all of this.

And we've had that perspective since Apollo, but we've forgotten it.

So I'm glad she said that, but it's a reminder that we've had this perspective and we've lost it.

Yeah.

Yes, absolutely.

Absolutely.

Absolutely.

That and, again, the fact that we're not in this alone, and nobody does anything alone or accomplishes anything alone.

We're in it together.
