I still want to be an astronaut when I grow up

Neil Armstrong is dead.

If you were around me as a teenager, you know how much I love space exploration. I always felt pride when I learned that Armstrong and I had the same birthday. I feel bad I never had the talents to go into science and space exploration. Science fiction is the next best thing.

An era has ended: NASA put an atomic powered rover on Mars, the biggest achievment in space exploration in years, not long ago. I hope this is the beginning of a new era.

I don't think America produces as many heroes as they think they do. But when they do, they make them big.
