Have you ever climbed a mountain, just to see the view? Have you ever gone scuba diving, just to look at the fish and coral? Have you ever got up early in the morning, just to see the sunrise?
I'd love to go into space, even for just a couple of minutes, to see the world streched out below me and the stars shining above me.
