We could send men to the Moon, probes to Mars and beyond, but we couldn't save one of our true heroines from cancer at 61.
I don't know what else to say except that we still have a lot of work to do, here and out there.

Before she died of cancer last February, aged 63, my wife used to say:
"Where you put your efforts is where you get your results."
