The international space station is one of the most stunning displays of what is possible with international co-operation. It truly would be wonderful to see that degree of co-operation in dealing with some of the other problems that our planet faces. I think the astronauts final words below said things so well.
For only if we are together, if we think ourselves as one single humanity, as we can see clearly from space, we will be able to build a better future.
Yes together we can achieve SUCH GREAT THINGS,LIKE IF WE WORK TOGETHER,
