We have you the same. And it is so great to hear from Earth again to Asia, Africa and Oceania. We are looking back at you. We hear you can look up and see the moon right now. We see you too. When we burned this, burn towards the moon, I said that we do not leave Earth, but we choose it. And that is true. We will explore. We will build we will build ships. We will visit again. We will construct science outposts. We will drive rovers. We will do radio astronomy. We will found companies. We will bolster industry. We will inspire but ultimately, we will always choose Earth. We will always choose each other.
