[Snippets from Ronald Reagan's Space Shuttle "Challenger" Tragedy Address:] [摘录自罗纳德·里根的航天飞机“挑战者”号悲剧地址： ]

Ladies and Gentlemen, today is a day for mourning and remembering. 女士们，先生们，今天是一天的哀悼和回忆。

They had a hunger to explore the universe and discover its truths, 他们有一个渴望探索宇宙，发现它的真理，

And they had that special grace, that special spirit that says: 和他们有特别的恩典，特别精神，说：

"Give me a challenge, and I'll meet it with joy." “给我一个挑战，我会迎接它的快乐时光。 ”

The crew of the Space Shuttle Challenger honored us by the manner in which they lived their lives. We will never forget them as they prepared for their journey and waved goodbye and slipped the surly bonds of earth to touch the face of God. 挑战者号航天飞机的机组人员在他们居住的生活的方式兑现我们。我们永远不会忘记他们，因为他们准备为他们的旅程，并挥手道别，并滑落地上的切切实实的债券摸神的面。
