july 2012 random thoughts from denise home communism the weather underground random thoughts from denise just another wordpress com weblog feeds posts comments archive for july 2012 one small step for man posted in personal politics tagged america history jfk moon moon landing nasa science on 25 july 2012 1 comment last week we celebrated the 43rd anniversary of the apollo 11 moon landing being a person that loves history and space i ve always felt drawn to this particular era in space exploration there is something about it that is majestic and noble i m not quite sure what it is but i do know this i love how we were never deterred even when things were beyond difficult i love how we weren t afraid to reach for really big things i love how we turned grandiose ideas into actual realities i love that we weren t just impartial observers of the heavens from the ground but that we actually became part of this new frontier i wanted to share with you especially in light of recent comments by political leaders my thoughts on the first moon landing and what it means to me in may of 1961 president john f kennedy delivered an address to congress that forever changed the nation and the world smack in the middle of the cold war president kennedy challenged america and america answered the call first i believe that this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal before this decade is out of landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to the earth no single space project in this period will be more impressive to mankind or more important for the long range exploration of space and none will be so difficult or expensive to accomplish what a challenge some thought he was crazy developing a manned space program to travel to and return from the moon in less than 9 years this wasn t a science fiction movie how could that even be accomplished 9 years he knew it would be difficult but he wanted this done in 9 years nasa easily could have backed out and said that it just wasn t enough time the public would understand that but they didn t and the american public proudly stood behind nasa and the space program the astronauts were heroes idolized by the public people looked at president kennedy and nasa as great patriots everyone was excited by the possibility of actually landing a man on the moon and not just any man but an american it obviously wouldn t be easy 9 years is not much time when you are talking about traveling almost 239 000 miles away and coming back home 9 years it would require tremendous effort but we weren t afraid of the challenge in fact we welcomed it 19 months after his address to congress president kennedy again addressed the nation this time from rice university the whole speech is really amazing but one part in particular stood out to me we choose to go to the moon we choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things not because they are easy but because they are hard because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept one we are unwilling to postpone and one which we intend to win and the others too we do it because it is hard did you catch that because it is hard wow this is profound to me we aren t taking the easy road here we want to be the leader in space exploration we want the american flag to wave on the moon of course this won t be easy but we are americans and we do things because they are hard and challenging we are up to the challenge and we will lead the entire free world in our quest for knowledge of the worlds beyond our own we are america talk about american exceptionalism holy cow sadly president kennedy didn t live to see it but his challenge was answered on july 20 1969 apollo 11 reached the moon and neil armstrong and edwin buzz aldrin were the first people to land on the moon it was an absolutely amazing what an amazing feat what a grand accomplishment never before in the entire history of mankind had man set foot on the moon and there we were our flag flew on the moon america rejoiced america celebrated america took pride in this amazing accomplishment we knew this would open doors we never dreamed possible we knew what this meant not only for america but for humanity this was something simply astonishing in thinking about this i had to ask myself if we could accomplish this today i honestly don t know which makes me feel sad heartbroken and mournful for the country i love and for what once was a once hard working america that wasn t afraid to dream big has turned lackadaisical an america that once valued hard work and study is now caught deeply in the entitlement trap an america that once rewarded and praised success now villainizes it at every possible chance and america that once was self sufficient now expects others to save us an america that once embraced creativity and innovation now discourages and wants conformity an america that once stood tall and proud is now far too apologetic i just don t know if we could do it now but once we did once we stood together in a moment of absolute greatness and we were one one in pride one in accomplishment one in spirit one nation one people united in splendor in that moment we dreamed we dreamed lofty and grandiose ideas and we celebrated those dreams for we knew we could accomplish anything we were america read full post the touch of the master s hand t was battered and scared and the auctioneer thought it scarcely worth his while to waste much time on the old violin but he held it up with a smile what am i bidden good folks he cried who ll start the bidding for me a dollar a dollar then two only two two dollars and who ll make it three three dollars once three dollars twice going for three but no from the room far back a grey haired man came forward and picked up the bow then wiping the dust from the old violin and tightening the loose strings he played a melody pure and sweet as a caroling angel sings the music ceased and the auctioneer with a voice that was quiet and low said what am i bid for the old violin and he held it up with the bow a thousand dollars and who ll make it two two thousand and who ll make it three three thousand once three thousand twice and going and gone said he the people cheered but some of them cried we do not quite understand what changed its worth swift came the reply the touch of the master s hand and many a man with life out of tune and batterd and scarred with sin is auctioned cheap to the thoughtless crowd much like the old violin a mess of pottage a glass of wine a game and he travels on he s going once and going twice he s going and almost gone but the master comes and the foolish crowd never can quite understand the worth of a soul and the change that s wrought by the touch of the master s hand myra brooks welsh july 2012 s m t w t f s 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17
