00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:09.200
CARL SAGAN “Space Telescope is a kind of grand intellectual 
adventure, for all of us, which will 

2
00:00:09.200 --> 00:00:16.640
cast light not just on the 
cosmos but also on ourselves.” 

3
00:00:16.640 --> 00:00:21.040
Exploration is hardwired into our brains.

4
00:00:21.040 --> 00:00:25.520
And when we see the horizon, we 
want to know what’s beyond it.

5
00:00:25.520 --> 00:00:30.000
We want to break the barriers,
we want to make the unknown known, 

6
00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:37.600
because our curious nature propels us forward.
Looking up beyond the moon and the stars, past 

7
00:00:37.600 --> 00:00:42.880
our own Milky Way Galaxy, and deep 
into the corners of our universe. 

8
00:00:42.880 --> 00:00:47.210
Generations before our own could only wonder 
what we might see veiled

9
00:00:47.210 --> 00:00:49.860
above our murky atmosphere.

10
00:00:49.860 --> 00:00:52.189
They drafted plans, laid out the framework

11
00:00:52.189 --> 00:00:58.640
that would uncover the truths hidden in the space
around us once thought to only be science fiction. 

12
00:00:58.640 --> 00:01:01.360
STORY MUSGRAVE: "We’re gonna have to move out on the EVA."

13
00:01:01.360 --> 00:01:04.150
And in the face of difficulty and setbacks...

14
00:01:04.150 --> 00:01:06.778
DOUGLAS BROOME: "There’s a significant spherical aberration."

15
00:01:06.778 --> 00:01:10.987
DR. JOHN CAMPBELL: "The fourth of six gyros
that are onboard Hubble, failed."

16
00:01:10.987 --> 00:01:14.584
SM3B ASTRONAUT: "Monitoring John’s suit
and there’s a large bit of water down here."

17
00:01:14.584 --> 00:01:22.560
They kept fighting and now we continue - unrelenting. 

18
00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:26.080
We desire to keep pushing the 
limits of the unattainable. 

19
00:01:26.080 --> 00:01:28.560
And with every discovery, every 
encounter with the heavens, 

20
00:01:28.560 --> 00:01:33.520
we begin to scratch the surface of 
what it means to truly be human. 

21
00:01:33.520 --> 00:01:36.320
We keep exploring to know 
what is outside of our galaxy, 

22
00:01:36.320 --> 00:01:43.418
but also what is inside of
each and every one of us.

23
00:01:43.418 --> 00:01:44.480
And we won’t stop, 

24
00:01:44.480 --> 00:01:48.000
we won’t be satisfied with 
what-ifs, or possibilities, 

25
00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:55.840
because we have been given a 
taste too sweet to ignore. 

26
00:01:55.840 --> 00:02:04.000
Grasping at the stars within an arm's reach, 
and mapping the space balancing between. 

27
00:02:04.000 --> 00:02:12.240
Observing the nature of the unusual,
diving deep into the fabric of our universe. 

28
00:02:12.240 --> 00:02:20.800
Being witnesses to gloriously painted galaxies, 
and the spectacular birth of new stars. 

29
00:02:20.800 --> 00:02:29.040
Now, all within the possible, the 
conceivable, and the believable. 

30
00:02:29.040 --> 00:02:31.920
And still, with that, a more glorious dawn awaits, 

31
00:02:31.920 --> 00:02:38.160
pushing back the frontiers of our explored space.
Our mission is not to supplement our present ideas  

32
00:02:38.160 --> 00:02:49.840
of the universe we live in, but rather to
uncover new phenomena not yet imagined.
