No dream is too high for those with their eyes in the sky!
Some things just can't be described. And stepping onto the moon was one of them.
I feel we need to remind the world about the Apollo missions and that we can still do impossible things.
Exploration is wired into our brains. If we can see the horizon, we want to know what's beyond.
Knowledge of the past and an optimistic view of the present give you great opportunities.
Neil Armstrong was the first man to walk on the moon. I am the first man to piss his pants on the moon.
I think humans will reach Mars, and I would like to see it happen in my lifetime.
The final frontier may be human relationships, one person to another.
History will remember the inhabitants of this century as the people who went from Kitty Hawk to the moon in 66 years, only to languish for the next 30 in low Earth orbit. At the core of the risk-free society is a self-indulgent failure of nerve.
Whenever I gaze up at the moon, I feel like I'm on a time machine. I am back to that precious pinpoint of time, standing on the foreboding - yet beautiful - Sea of Tranquility. I could see our shining blue planet Earth poised in the darkness of space.
If we can conquer space, we can conquer childhood hunger.
A family needs to work as a team, supporting each other's individual aims and aspirations.
Bravery comes along as a gradual accumulation of discipline.
I still say, 'Shoot for the moon; you might get there.'
Once you've been first, it cannot be done again. Not by you, not by anyone else.
We need the next generation to be motivated and to push technological boundaries, to seek out new innovations.
There's a need for accepting responsibility - for a person's life and making choices that are not just ones for immediate short-term comfort. You need to make an investment, and the investment is in health and education.
Many say exploration is part of our destiny, but it's actually our duty to future generations and their quest to ensure the survival of the human species.
Armstrong described the lunar surface as 'beautiful.' I thought to myself, 'It's not really beautiful. It's magnificent that we're here, but what a desolate place we are visiting.'
The biggest benefit of Apollo was the inspiration it gave to a growing generation to get into science and aerospace.
My first inclination is to be a bit skeptical about the claims that human-produced carbon dioxide is the direct contributor to global warming.
Timing has always been a key element in my life. I have been blessed to have been in the right place at the right time.
Fear and worry are emotions that cloud the mind from being able to think clearly, to remember what the procedures are to deal with that emergency.
The surface of the moon is like nothing here on Earth! It's totally lacking any evidence of life. It has lots of fine, talcum-powderlike dust mixed with a complete variety of pebbles, rocks, and boulders. Many pebbles, fewer rocks, and even fewer boulders naturally make up its surface. The dust is a very fine, overall dark gray. And with no air molecules to separate the dust, it clings together like cement.
When we set out to land people on the surface of Mars, I think we should as a nation, as a world, commit ourselves to supporting a growing settlement and colonization there. To visit a few times and then withdraw would be an unforgivable waste of resources.
