I agree. It is downright amazing to me.
I am also in awe of the astronauts willing to put their lives on the line to advance the exploration of space. I don't have that gene. I don't even like flying in airplanes. No way could I bring myself to crawl into a capsule atop a rocket - especially now that I have a family. I'm reminded of the scene from Interstellar where Matthew McConaughey's character tells his daughter that he's going to space and he's not sure when he'll be back or how old she will be of he returns. As a father of a little girl, I was absolutely crushed by that scene. I can't imagine what it's like to talk to your child about the dangers associated with being an astronaut.
