Candle in the Dark: Three Victories for Humanity

In a world often overshadowed by division and conflict, Candle in the Dark explores moments of unity, hope, and achievement that remind us of humanity's potential. Inspired by the words of poet Mahmoud Darwish in his poem فَكّر بغيرك ('Think of Others'), this video reflects on how, despite our differences, we are capable of victories that benefit all.

Through three powerful milestones—NASA and SpaceX's Crew Dragon mission that sent both an American and a Russian astronaut to the International Space Station, symbolizing unity in space; the upcoming Artemis mission preparing to return humanity to the Moon; and an unprecedented performance of John Williams' composition from the International Space Station, synchronized with multiple orchestras on Earth—we’re reminded that when we overcome superstition and division, we can reach incredible heights.

Be ashamed to die until you have won some victory for humanity. Join us in reflecting on what we’ve achieved—and what more we can accomplish when we think of others and come together.
