We're here today to wish the international space station some greetings itself because today is the one-thousandth day that the first component of the station has been on orbit .

I believe this hardware is the foundation for what will put humanity into space forever. There will always be people off the face of the planet.

Yury, Jim, Susan, I know it's a tough day. I know it's hard to say good-bye.

Today it seems obvious to everyone that, of course, you have to be in the digital space or at least have a presence on the Internet. But if you rewind five, six, seven years ago, it wasn't so obvious then. There was a lot of trepidation and concern about how consumers would adopt it, ... John was one of the first to make that bold step forward. He was saying, 'We don't know how it's all going to turn out, but we do know the impact is going to be significant. We need to play today so we can be effective tomorrow.'

Today just wasn't our day.

Well thank you very much, I didn't expect birthday greetings from outer space.
