1
00:00:00,433 --> 00:00:04,866
This is a mirror that
I have been looking
at for over a decade,

2
00:00:05,566 --> 00:00:07,566
and it gets prettier every time.

3
00:00:15,766 --> 00:00:17,000
I am so excited!

4
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:18,166
I can't wait for it to launch.

5
00:00:18,166 --> 00:00:21,600
To see it here, ready to ship out,
is just a wonderful thing.

6
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:25,433
It’s a huge accomplishment for us
and this entire team who’s worked

7
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:29,000
very hard for many years.

8
00:00:35,666 --> 00:00:38,366
As a scientist,

9
00:00:38,366 --> 00:00:41,300
you know, eager to get
her out the door so
that we can, start doing

10
00:00:41,300 --> 00:00:42,300
some world-class science.

11
00:00:42,300 --> 00:00:45,333
Been like our family
for the last decade.

12
00:00:45,333 --> 00:00:46,600
And now it's leaving.

13
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:50,100
And so I'm sad to see it go,
but I'm so excited to learn

14
00:00:50,466 --> 00:00:53,466
so much more that Roman
is going to uncover about our universe.

15
00:00:53,733 --> 00:00:55,566
So it's, it's a little bittersweet.

16
00:00:55,566 --> 00:00:59,366
Because I get to come
here every day
and see it, and so,

17
00:00:59,366 --> 00:01:02,366
it won't be the same
coming to work and not
having it here anymore.

18
00:01:02,466 --> 00:01:05,400
But, it's really exciting
that we're going to actually

19
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:09,000
see it go up in a rocket
and get in orbit and
start taking images.

20
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:14,066
It's been an honor to work on Roman and I am really excited

21
00:01:14,066 --> 00:01:17,233
to see all the science
that it's going to unveil.

22
00:01:17,233 --> 00:01:20,266
Safe travels. And I'll miss you.
