Nov 25, 1961: USS Enterprise (CVN-65) was commissioned, becoming the world's first nuclear-powered aircraft carrier. At 1,123 feet she is the longest naval vessel ever built and the only ship of a class that was originally planned to have five other ships. Active service from 1961–2012 CVN-65 was the eighth U.S. naval vessel to bear the name Enterprise. The Gerald R. Ford-class carrier CVN-80 currently under construction will continue the tradition.

"Fernweh" is a German word describing an ache for experiences never had and sensations never felt."
The word fernweh is a combination of the words fern, meaning distance, and wehe, meaning an ache, misery or sickness. It translates to 'far woe' or an ache to explore far-flung places. It's the opposite of heimweh (homesickness), and it's a pain many of us are feeling now more than ever.
"Dieser Fernweh zerstört meinen Verstand." Translation: This wanderlust is destroying my mind. Wanderlust describes a joyful lust for travel, Fernweh takes it up a notch and conveys a more tortured emotion.
