It's Time To Dream Higher (washingtonpost.com) Icarus fell because he flew too close to the sun. Columbia -- and the whole American manned space program today -- fell because it flies too close to the Earth, repeatedly, gratuitously braving the terrors of takeoff and reentry. It is time to once again raise our eyes and our horizons, and return to our original path, so inexplicably abandoned: to the moon and beyond.
