I wasn't planning on watching the space shuttle Endeavour fly over work today, but happened to be in the parking lot a few minutes before it happened, and decided to stay and watch with a few coworkers. I'm glad I did, because it was a surprisingly moving and emotional moment that doesn't come across in photos or videos of the flight. I hope we find new ways for science to reach out and inspire people, or find a way to bring back the manned space program, now that I've seen what it looks like when it's gone.
