Joshua... Joshua would really, really be excited to be here now. On the moon, surrounded by a room like this. He was smarter than I was - I used to get so mad at him when he would catch me making up words when I read stories to the other kids.

See things no one else had ever seen before. Meet the thunderbird or go to the Astral Line.

We never even TALKED about the moon.
