Just to throw this half formed idea out there. When I think of Neil Armstrong, or imagine the day when man steps onto the surface of Mars for the first time - there is a powerful, compelling impulse to know what it would be like - not only to be there, but to actually *be* that person, taking that first step - to not only see something from a genuinely new perspective for the first time, but to be the first person to do so. I have no reason to doubt that this is a reaction common to most of us - the need to participate, to live vicariously, to be a witness to history, to be able to say "I was there" - to drive hundreds of miles to see the Apollo 11 launch, to see the last Shuttle touchdown, for an eleven year boy saying " "I want to be Neil Armstrong when I grow up".
