Eileen Collins is confident and eager to fly in space!

I recently bought the DVD Earthlight and bought 3 Imax DVDs (had them in VHS too) and there is no question being in orbit around the Earth, or as some say "going round and round", is a fantastic experience: there's the vacuum of space, there's weightlessness and there's the constantly changing view of Earth, in daylight with brilliant colors and at night with faint glows and northern lights, lightnings, stars...And there's a destination, the space station.
Going somewhere will mean seeing the shrinking Earth become a dot and months of nothing much to see outside because of the sunshine or it will mean the Moon with its colorless relief (but very colorful Earth very much visible ) or large rocks in space, also very much colorless.

But the Moon can become a beautiful place too, if we understood it and appreciated it more.
