I remember my professor reading it when the Challenger went down in 1986. Very few of us made it to class that afternoon, but he made us feel better somehow for the life that would go on, for the joy it was for the astronauts to be living their dream, and then he read this poem. Thank you for the bittersweet memory.

I love..."...the surly bands of earth..."<br /><br />I love this poem, and especially the sounds of the words above.
