Per the request of @mventre, I present to you the roughest of rough drafts.
1. I hope I can properly convey how grateful I am to be recognized while noting that this prize is not mine alone.
2. I am one of countless dreamers in this world, and I would not be here today without other dreamers, achievers, and innovators.
3. I hope you too can see the spark of eternal optimism and use that to go on a voyage with me.
4. Once, we looked to the stars and wondered if we could journey beyond our world.
5. Designed rockets to land upon the moon and perhaps someday go beyond our own galaxy to places unknown.
6. And while space may hold infinite potentials, there is still much we have to discover here.
7. Our collaborative efforts to explore at home and beyond will lead to significant advances in technology, conservation, and most importantly our own humanity
8. Caring for our planet must continue to be a priority if we hope to allow her to continue providing a safe home for our future generations.
9. While the singular individual may feel that there is nothing to be done, we as a global community have endless opportunity to come together for a common goal.
10. Thank you for allowing me to share in the wonder.
