“Thank you, Professor Hawking.
I’d like to thank the millions of Americans who viewed my eclipse.
Also, I want to give a special shout out to The Moon for contributing to my performance. Couldn’t have done it without you, Pal!
I appreciate the many broadcast outlets, all of you who posted live feed on YouTube, and my old buddies, The Weather Channel, National Geographic and NASA.
I am grateful and honored to accept the Clippy award.
You Earthlings are the best! See you in 2024, America!
Thanks again and Good Night, Everybody!”
