>We are now approaching lunar sunrise, and for all the people back on Earth, the crew of Apollo 8 has a message that we would like to send to you.>In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.>And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.>And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.>And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.[6]Jim Lovell>And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.>And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.>And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.>And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.[6]Frank Borman>And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.>And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.>And from the crew of Apollo 8, we close with good night, good luck, a Merry Christmas – and >God bless all of you, all of you on the good Earth.[6]
