T minus 20 seconds. Stage two tanks pressing for flight. Flight computer has control of the vehicle.

[cheering]

The first stage is returning to land as the second stage powers the [inaudible] satellites to low-Earth orbit. The [inaudible] have successfully deployed. The first stage will soon begin its series of three burns to head back towards Cape Canaveral.

It's kind of amazing that this window of opportunity is open for life to go beyond Earth. And we just don't know how long that window is going to be open.

But the thing that gets me most fired up is that creating a self-sustaining civilization on Mars, it would be the greatest adventure ever, ever in human history.

It would be so exciting to wake up in the morning and think that that's what's happening.
