Your Reply: HTML is ON UBB Code is ON Smilies Legend	[QUOTE]Originally posted by Robert Pearlman: [B]Space station commander Scott Kelly spoke from orbit on Monday, Jan. 10, 2011, about the Tucson shooting before leading his crew in a moment of silence. <center><iframe title="YouTube video player" class="youtube-player" type="text/html" width="400" height="330" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/sAFJWum_Y7g?rel=0" frameborder="0"></iframe></center> <BLOCKQUOTE>[i]I would like to take some time this morning to recognize a moment of silence in honor of the victims of the Tucson shooting tragedy. First though, I would like to say a few words. We have a unique vantage point here aboard the International Space Station. As I look out the window, I see a very beautiful planet that seems very inviting and peaceful. Unfortunately, it is not. These days we are constantly reminded of the unspeakable acts of violence and damage we can inflict upon one another, not just with our actions, but also with our irresponsible words. We are better than this. We must do better. The crew of ISS Expedition 26 and the flight control centers around the world would like to observe a moment of silence in honor of all the victims, which include my sister-in-law Gabrielle Giffords, a caring and dedicated public servant. Please join me and the rest of the ISS Expedition 26 crew in a moment of silence.[/i]</BLOCKQUOTE>[/B][/QUOTE]
