               "The final days of their own lives were spent looking down upon this Earth, and now, on every continent, in every
 land they can see, the names of these astronauts is known and remembered. They will always have an honored place in the memory of
this country, and today, I offer the respect and gratitude of the people of the United States. May God bless you all."
