William Shatner describes the profound grief he felt when he finally went to space for real.

The OG Captain Kirk 's real-life space experience holds important lessons for us all.

"My trip to space was supposed to be a celebration; instead, it felt like a funeral," he wrote.

Since most of us will never leave Earth , we can take inspiration from those who have, acknowledge our essential oneness and do everything in our power to protect our beautiful, life-giving home. Shatner shares more of his reflections on life on this planet and beyond in his most recent book, " Boldly Go: Reflections on a Life of Awe and Wonder ."
