My thing is talking to people. I've interviewed people ranging from scientists to chefs, lawyers to schoolteachers. My favorite thing is listening to people recall their favorite passions and memories and explain just how and why they enjoy these things. Recently, I've taken up an old interest in astronomy, so it was only reasonable to try and talk to an astronaut. I've always wanted to try. So, today, for the first time ever, I spoke to Brian Duffy, and my first question was "How did seeing the Earth in person change your perspective on life?" Brian Duffy had a lot to say. He told me about how he'd looked forward to seeing the Earth, that pale, blue dot from space ever since it'd been announced he was space-bound. He told me that from space, you couldn't see hatred, or love, or fear, or happiness, or state lines, or country lines, or continental lines. You saw one thing, and that was humanity. I love you guys
