Perspective on the AZ shootings from outer space


These are likely the wisest words I have heard spoken in the aftermath of the shootings. Maybe we all need to take a step back, look at some of the things that are going on from a broader view and get a little perspective.

We are better than this. And we do have to do better. Much, much better.

From the New York Post:

Flight controllers in Houston fell silent as Scott Kelly, commander of the International Space Station and twin brother of Giffords' astronaut husband, Mark Kelly, spoke via radio, leading NASA in a moment of silence.

"As I look out the window, I see a very beautiful planet that seems very inviting and peaceful," he said. "Unfortunately, it is not. We're better than this. We must do better."
