On November 22, 1963, America and the world lost a great president and leader. We were never the same since. John F. Kennedy had a vision for the future, and what a future it would have been. JFK is more appreciated and loved as the years go by.

Kennedy’s ability to motivate and inspire is unequaled! Although this speech was made over 50 years ago, it inspires me today to do more than expected. I feel that Kennedy’s true talent and gift is his vision! ☮️🖖🏽
That standing ovation at the start that kept going well past when he was ready to speak. Biden isn't getting that ovation at a neutral setting, neither is Trump, or any other politician today. JFK was a different breed. One of the greatest and most beloved leaders ever. May God rest his wonderful soul.
The greatest American President that ever lived. A true champion, for science, humanity, knowledge and excellence. It's men like him that make me proud to be an American, even in these dark times, all of us, from all walks of life, in mutual effort. RIP, the Eternal Flame, you will NEVER be forgotten.
libs would have maybe cancelled him though for his womanizing, and forced him to resign. however, w/ libs, you never know if they will exempt somebody from doing unacceptable things if they too r a lib. so 50/50?
The greatest modern Democrat. Unlike today. Lincoln and Washington were the greatest. Washington left the office even though he could have been a King for life. Thereby saving our fledgling constitutional republic. And Lincoln literally died for the Union and ending slavery. His assasination by Booth was triggered by his plan to give the vote to Black men and freeing slaves.
JFK was a visionary and the vision he laid out for this nation required a lot of strength, courage, resources and inspiration. President Kennedy provided all four and America succeeded. He was not blessed with the length of time and he left us very early. Whenever I feel low, I just listen to one of his speeches.
@@pattylevesque2601 Like you, I have watched this particular speech at Rice University - many times. Kennedy's oratory skills, his vision and his self-effacing humor are second to none. Above all, his command of the audience, as he creates the visual picture of the role of America in Space. Kennedy may have passed away now almost more than sixty years ago; yet, America needs visionaries like JFK - to show the path of innovation, knowledge and skill.
Most people have no idea what this event has done to improve all of our lives. This one event gave us all many of the technologies and creature comforts we take for granted every day. Thank you Mr. President!
And sadly I'd say he did. Since newer evidence has since arrived that the death is connected to the CIA, same to his brother who attempted to run against LBJ... Makes me worry for RFK Jr as he attempts to run with the same values
I think so many of his speeches are inspirational,but his words and rhetoric only emphasize the inadequate words of others such as Trump , Biden and Johnson (Boris).JFK is articulate,sharp and intelligent and an inspiration to all people young and old. No one able to match him today and I wonder if there ever will be.
Replace space exploration with whatever your goals are and its one of the best motivational speeches ever. Starting a company, fitness goals, Kennedy made the American people one whole, a wonder that we all were a part of one entity.
Ted Sorensen wrote most of the speech with input from President Kennedy; so we are hearing his vision delivered by the visionary and great orator President John F. Kennedy. What a powerful combination!
I am amazed that Kennedy is accurately describing the costs and risks of the space program, without losing its persuasive value. Today, our politicians ignore all trade offs of the programs they propose when addressing the public.
Yeah, that struck me too. He acknowledged the costs, and it even broke it down to the person (40 cent per person, to go up to 50 cent), to make it understandable. A gallon of gas in 1960 was about 31 cent, so it would be equivalent to maybe $4 per person today. So it's not zero, but not overly burdensome. Still great to hear honesty there.
This man had a way with words on EVERY speech. Though I am only 50 now in 2021, I feel that he was my favorite president. And what happened to him really make me feel some type of way, a humiliation deeper for this country almost, than how I feel about slavery. And I'm a black man. SMH. R.I.P.)ower Mr John F. Kennedy.
Shubham Mohapatra he was one of our best presidents! A war hero who served his country and saved the lives of some of his men, a man who, during the height of the Cold War deescalated tensions (although the bay of pigs attack was pretty bad), someone who pushed civil rights forward. Pushed for space technology which has many benefits for common people. Ultimately brought the people of the US together which we take for granted as today our presidents now make the country very divided.
@@mikevids8107 How can you say he was great ? He was slow on civil rights , unsure about vietnam and escalated tensions with cuba. In his short presidency none of his proposed bills actually became acts. All his important bills like civil rights , medicare , tax cuts passed after his death by lyndon johnson. People give him credit in cuban missile crisis but it is a true fact that the crisis was caused by jfk only. He was not sure what to do about vietnam , many people predict that he was waiting for a second term to call back american troops but again it was he who increased military advisers there , so he is not more than a overrated president . All he had was good looks , charming personality , oratory skills , a beautiful wife and a kennedy surname ...

JFK is not before my time. He is of my time. He is my man. He was my Daddy's man, when he served three tours in Vietnam. My belief is that he had incredible wisdom and believed fervently in the little man.
Please, call him *Mr* John F Kennedy. It's unseemly and disrespectful to use the title _Sir_ on someone who was President of a republic, whose immediate ancestors came from a part of Ireland where men took up arms against England on numerous occasions (County Wexford).
This is why I love JFK so much! He had a great belief that America could once and for all stay at peace and go to the moon. And because he was so kind and had a good sense of humor.
I listen to JFK and can't help but thinking of Joe Biden. Oh, can't we have a president of JFK caliber? God bless America. JFK said, we choose to go to the moon, , not because it is hard, but because it is the right thing to do. How uplifting is the speech. .
This is easily the highest quality audio of this speech I have heard. Normally the JFK Library audio files are crystal clear, but for some reason missed the mark on this one. I really appreciate you all posting this. Much love, James ❤

Smooth operator, handsome, youthful with a gorgeous wife & small kids, JFK was magnetic back then & this country's not seen the likes of someone like him since that day in Dallas.
This man was more than revolutionary. He was absolutely correct. God bless the memory of a charismatic leader. A life cut short, a purpose that was not, and a legacy that helps others to survive. Peace is the ultimate objective. Nothing with me has changed. Times change, people change, it was said. No, the audacity of hope. Five years later, his brother Robert, and a negro spiritual known as Dr. Martin Luther King. The security for what remains must be absolute. Again, a beleaguered family represents what someone considers as an opportunity. No, because the same man that said to forgive also said that sometimes one has to shake the dust from one’s sandals as one leaves. Knowing the circumstances that surround indifference that refuses to change is what prompted the dedication for the conditions of absolute security.
The bravery, the commitment, the passion that Kennedy brought to his vision for this country and it's citizens truly lit up the world. What a gift Kennedy was. Take a snapshot for your mind. You will not see his like again.
"I got my wish - I met the Pleadians face to face on Friday, November 2, 2023 in the lobby of the Holiday Inn in Greenbelt, Maryland - not far away from where I was born.
Such an inspirational and witty speech. Love the interspersed comment about Rice football playing Texas ! He woke up a few people with that comment ! Kennedy was before my time , but I listen to his speeches whenever I need an uplift .
Such a inspirational speech from JFK ! He absolutely knew America could & would put a Man on the moon by the end of the decade ! Such a young and dynamic President Of The United States ! Thank God for giving us such a leader as JFK ! 👍👍👍
I miss when Presidents used to set challenges like this for our country. The not routine “bring back jobs” or non stop economic talk. Set a goal for our nation! Set a goal for our people! Something we can all get behind as Americans. Challenge our people, and I promise we will meet that challenge!
This speech, the Gettysburg Address, Churchill's bone - chilling "We shall fight...", FDR's " A day which will live in infamy..." Don't know if this sort of thing is even taught in schools anymore...but if it is, students, if you closely examine these examples, and utilize the knowledge therein, you will get a 4.0.... Been watching this a bazillion times...always makes me tear up... Godspeed, Jack.
Very well said. Those are truly great speeches, nothing like what passes for oratory today. We can but hope the pendulum will swing back to this sort of speech.
i am such a nerd for space exploration, and learning about what else is out there in the stars. every time i see new pictures from the james web telescope, or hear of plans to send people back to the moon/to mars i always think back to this speech and think how far we've come. i feel like whenever in the future humanity has colonies on other planets this video will be playing on a loop somewhere in a museum on those colonies.

What a man. What a speech. What a president.
Nobody speaks like this anymore. Nobody who really needs to inspire people can REALLY inspire. What a shame
RFK Jr does
A visionary and enthusiastic speaker and leader. What a gift to the US this man was.
This man got me involved in politics about fifty years ago! One of our greatest presidents. Love ❤️ JFK and RFK.
Now, we can barely grasp how far and how fast we have fallen in the last sixty years since we reached that lofty summit.
JFK’s greatest speech on a very hot Texas day.
We choose to go to the Moon. We choose to go to the Moon...We choose to go to the Moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard; because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one we intend to win, and the others, too.
@John F. Kennedy
Amen.✝️😂
And he could of said, save our earth from greed and stupidly
This needs to be mandatory viewing in every school in America.
This is what attracts immigrants and talents around the world coming to US, not just opportunities but also idealism and great leaders
Best speech in the history of humanity.
From Australia 2022 Thankyou Sir for what you stood for 🇦🇺❤️
John Kennedy was a great, inspirational president.
Big difference from today.
JFK is not before my time. He is of my time. He is my man. He was my Daddy's man, when he served three tours in Vietnam. My belief is that he had incredible wisdom and believed fervently in the little man.
I watch this and weep tears of joy pride and sorrow.
I m from India....but I love Sir John F Kennedy ...His each and every word in the Moon speech makes a rush of adrenaline.....
Please, call him *Mr* John F Kennedy. It's unseemly and disrespectful to use the title _Sir_ on someone who was President of a republic, whose immediate ancestors came from a part of Ireland where men took up arms against England on numerous occasions (County Wexford).
Listen to how charismatic this guy is and can move people. Now look at what we have…unreal.

President Kennedy was a statesman ❤ One of the greatest speaches of the last century ❤
This is why I love JFK so much! He had a great belief that America could once and for all stay at peace and go to the moon. And because he was so kind and had a good sense of humor.
It's so sad that he didn't live to see that great dream realized. God Tier speech for sure!
imagine the speech after succeeding the dream!
President Kennedy already saw his dream come true before he made this speech. The rest of us had to wait until 1969 to see his dream come true.
I listen to JFK and can't help but thinking of Joe Biden. Oh, can't we have a president of JFK caliber? God bless America.
JFK said, we choose to go to the moon, , not because it is hard, but because it is the right thing to do. How uplifting is the speech. .

Jack was great. Thoughtful. Witty, charming, intelligent, respectful, thorough. You did your part Jack. May the Lord keep your soul.
@MADELINE SAUNDERS that's what he was called outside the office
He was catholic so he had to die. Can't threaten southern Baptist Christians, all hail union baptist church.
@@michaelsanchez9594do the world a favor and go count mufflers on the interstate
Not too much respect for Jackie tho, sadly. Public perception is everything to a politician
Of course God loved this little rascal
This is easily the highest quality audio of this speech I have heard. Normally the JFK Library audio files are crystal clear, but for some reason missed the mark on this one. I really appreciate you all posting this.
Much love,
James ❤
Listening to this, I can but keep from asking - why this country can no longer have a man like this for its leader.
Because there are evil forces still present that don’t want us to have this type of leader.
Perhaps JFK's greatest speech (among many) and one of the best addresses by a President in the last 150 years.
What might we have accomplished as a country had this man lived
Right, i was thinking the same thing. But i was like what could we have accomplished. If the Christian white supremacist deep state didn't kill him.
You mean the Mob and Johnson?
@@doogieanese he had to go as he was on his way, on that fateful day in Dallas, to reveal the truth about extraterrestrial existance here on earth ... that was not going to be allowed.

@@byjamie-hillierrubis now they have to go, leave us humans and nice peoples to it ,that wanna help with free energy < clean energy lol, not traffic humans about , spread fake news , wars, drugs etc etc
no more farming , no more pizzas , hope the pizza eating farmers all get there karma soon, THEY DID LOL
Smooth operator, handsome, youthful with a gorgeous wife & small kids, JFK was magnetic back then & this country's not seen the likes of someone like him since that day in Dallas.
This man was more than revolutionary. He was absolutely correct. God bless the memory of a charismatic leader. A life cut short, a purpose that was not, and a legacy that helps others to survive. Peace is the ultimate objective. Nothing with me has changed. Times change, people change, it was said. No, the audacity of hope. Five years later, his brother Robert, and a negro spiritual known as Dr. Martin Luther King. The security for what remains must be absolute. Again, a beleaguered family represents what someone considers as an opportunity. No, because the same man that said to forgive also said that sometimes one has to shake the dust from one’s sandals as one leaves. Knowing the circumstances that surround indifference that refuses to change is what prompted the dedication for the conditions of absolute security.
What a rhetorical speech by the great visionary President John F Kennedy.Really amazing speech.
The bravery, the commitment, the passion that Kennedy brought to his vision for this country and it's citizens truly lit up the world. What a gift Kennedy was. Take a snapshot for your mind. You will not see his like again.
Kepler wrote to Galileo that there will be ships to sail the voids between the stars, and there will be men to sail those ships. Kennedy did it.
Vaccine unless you have any questions regarding the allegations that you have
“causing heat about half that on the temperature of the Sun. Almost as hot as it is here today.”
Even Kennedy knew Houston was hot as hell
"Causing heat about half the temperature of the surface of the sun. Almost as hot as it is here today."
We need more politicians like Kennedy
What an inspiration after all these years🙌🏻He’ll forever lived in the hearts of people even non Americans!
I regret not listening to this speech earlier .So confident and full of conviction. Very honest .
Biden would be stuttering, mumbling and fallling down the stairs if he had to give this speech
I rem as a child how my mom and her mom both cried together and mourned when we lost this great Leader of the free world.
I love this Man legacy. Love everything about his character. THE MAN.
I was 6years old when this most wonderful speech was given. JACK,WE SO DEEPLY MISS YOU AND YOUR BROTHER BOBBY!
"I got my wish - I met the Pleadians face to face on Friday, November 2, 2023 in the lobby of the Holiday Inn in Greenbelt, Maryland - not far away from where I was born.
Watching this you have to wonder how we have gone so far astray in choosing our leaders…
Such an inspirational and witty speech. Love the interspersed comment about Rice football playing Texas ! He woke up a few people with that comment !
Kennedy was before my time , but I listen to his speeches whenever I need an uplift .
The Rice football team?
@@fabiollopesyes.
Such a inspirational speech from JFK ! He absolutely knew America could & would put a Man on the moon by the end of the decade ! Such a young and dynamic President Of The United States ! Thank God for giving us such a leader as JFK ! 👍👍👍
This speech will motivate you to do anything. One of the best ever done!!
RIP JFK May you be drinking god’s sweet nectar in heaven ❤️❤️
Just because something is hard doesn't make it worthwhile. He might have said something like mankind is stepping out to begin exploring the stars
I miss when Presidents used to set challenges like this for our country. The not routine “bring back jobs” or non stop economic talk. Set a goal for our nation! Set a goal for our people! Something we can all get behind as Americans. Challenge our people, and I promise we will meet that challenge!
This speech, the Gettysburg Address, Churchill's bone - chilling
"We shall fight...", FDR's " A day which will live in infamy..."
Don't know if this sort of thing is even taught in schools anymore...but if it is, students, if you closely examine these examples, and utilize the knowledge therein, you will get a 4.0....
Been watching this a bazillion times...always makes me tear up...
Godspeed, Jack.
Very well said. Those are truly great speeches, nothing like what passes for oratory today. We can but hope the pendulum will swing back to this sort of speech.
Thank you.
of course it is taught in school
@@johnprimm35 listen to Obama after the Sandy Hook shooting or at the funeral of Clementa Pickney
i am such a nerd for space exploration, and learning about what else is out there in the stars. every time i see new pictures from the james web telescope, or hear of plans to send people back to the moon/to mars i always think back to this speech and think how far we've come.
i feel like whenever in the future humanity has colonies on other planets this video will be playing on a loop somewhere in a museum on those colonies.
Thank you John F KENNEDY FOR SUCH WONDERFUL SPEECHE THIS IS ALWAYS EVERGREEN SPEECHES OF ALL TIME
