“We will not waver. We will not tire, we will not falter and we will not

fail. Peace and freedom will prevail,” President George W. Bush

dove into Osama bin Laden’s network, piecing together the “decade long trail of

terror, death and missed clues” that culminated in thousands of fatalities on

September 11th, 2001.

of NASA’s “long road back.” Discovery’s

successful mission became a “psychic

landmark” that “ranked with the giant

step of putting man on the moon.” Since

touching back down to earth, we’ve set

our gaze upward again.
