"We will never forget them, nor the last time we saw them, this morning, as they prepared for their journey and waved good-bye and 'slipped the surly bounds of Earth' to 'touch the face of God.'" Ronald Reagan on the explosion of the Challenger 5

This was Reagan at his best. His worlds following the tragic explosion of the Space Shuttle Challenger were truly moving and reflected the sorrow and grief of the entire nation.

Touching and beautiful words, whose imagery are courteousy of WW2 pilot John Gillespie Magee's 'High Flight'.
