Just before the launch, commander Mark Kelly said: “It’s in the DNA of our great country to reach for the stars and explore. We must not stop. To all the millions watching today, including our spouses, children, family and friends, we thank you for your support.Remarkably, Giffords made a return visit to see Kelly off.
