We are an exploring people.
If you look back in the history of our country
from the great explorers many centuries ago,
they were exploring to find new lands, new ideas, new places
and time enables us, to look back at these great expeditions
in our history where we learned about the unknown unknowns
and that's what space offers for us.
If you think of any of the great frontiers in our world,
it's going deeper into the ocean, right?
It's going up into the atmosphere,
away from the atmosphere, out of the atmosphere,
out among the planets in the solar system,
out of the solar system.
There's places that we just haven't gone
and we're learning new things with every single mission.
