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.
