ADMINISTRATOR'S STATEMENT ON NASA'S DAY OF REMEMBRANCE

 
The following is a statement by NASA Administrator Michael Griffin on 
NASA's Day of Remembrance. The Day or Remembrance honors those who 
gave their lives for the cause of exploration and discovery. This 
includes NASA employees, the astronauts who died in Apollo 1 and on 
the Space Shuttles Challenger and Columbia.

"Today we pause to remember the loss of all of our employees, 
including our Apollo 1, Challenger and Columbia astronauts, and to 
honor their legacy. Nearly 50 years into the space age, spaceflight 
remains the pinnacle of human challenge, an endeavor just barely 
possible with today's technology. We at NASA are privileged to be in 
the business of learning how to do it, to extend the frontier of the 
possible, and, ultimately, to make space travel routine. It is an 
enormously difficult enterprise. The losses we commemorate today are 
a strong and poignant reminder of the sternness of the challenge."
