that hatch opens up. 
What was that like? 
It was visceral. 
I was completely overcome and I just screamed. 
I was so happy and just a visceral emotional reaction to not only being home but people there coming to us and bringing us out. 
Just unspeakable joy. 
Their trip the first to take in the full expanse of the moon's far side. 
Sharing spectacular snapshots of the blue marble that's our home. 
like this one just peeking over the cratered face of the lunar surface. 
To me, the most profound moment seeing the moon wasn't necessarily when we were on the full far side. 
We were so close that the whole thing was just incredible, in-your-face, just dramatic. 
It was the first real evidence that we were somewhere completely different than where we had started. 
It wasn't just our own. 
It was its own.

Yeah, especially for you, Jeremy. 
You're the biggest one of the group. 
Mhm. 
Yeah. 
I'm sort of like a ladder for the capsule to help make it around. 
We got really effective and efficient at it.

I don't need you to move 
or can you move? 
A poignant moment naming a new crater for Commander Reed Weissman's late wife, Carol. 
She was an amazing human being and she's the mother of my two daughters. 
And like what what man on this planet deserves a gift like that to to have your crew be so thoughtful and to do something so caring. 
The crew bringing back lessons learned for the next trip. 
We really wanted this to be about humanity going on this journey with us. 
And that idea about togetherness, it's just amazing that people resonated with
