Here’s an inspiring short video that uses clips from a variety of sources, overlaid with John F. Kennedy’s famous speech on why we must go into space, to inspire exploration. Many of the clips are from the early days of the space program itself, but some even include images of George Mallory on Everest as well. It is a good reminder of the importance of exploration, even in this day and age.
