G’day, mates!

Today marks the 40th anniversary of Apollo 11 landing on the moon. From left to right above, Buzz Aldrin, Michael Collins and Neil Armstrong – men who challenged millions to dream big and live large. Where will “we” go next?

9 days to DefCon, not that I’m ridiculously excited or anything. Make it a great day folks!

Signed,

The Intern

p.s. The NASA HQ photostream contains many thought provoking photos.
