EXCERPT:

HANKS: “Going to the Moon requires a default setting that is not cynicism. It requires just the opposite. It actually requires faith in each other, trust in one’s own abilities, to be improved by working with other people. All we really need is enough of us to work together, and we can truly change the world. Right now, it seems as though not enough of us can work together. Let’s find an example of when that happens and I’m sorry, but going back to the Moon is that very example, writ large.”
