Any observations from the Moon or a sense of realising this or that about the greater meaning of things wasn’t as influential for me as the experience of coming back and dealing with being a person who’s been to the Moon. – Buzz Aldrin
I’m a fully trained cosmonaut and have completed 800 hours training, which has made me the No. 1 civilian reserve ready to visit the International Space Station. I am determined to go up, and I want to explore the Moon, Mars and beyond! – Brian Blessed
Most people never believed in the real possibility of going to the moon, and neither did I until I was in my twenties. – Buzz Aldrin
Government is really successful when it’s willing to make big, bold objectives, like, ‘We’re going to get to the moon.’ But without leaders with big ideas, we get stuck. – Bill Maris
I am focusing more on overseas gigs, as my international fans do not get a chance to be a part of my live concerts, as they visit India once in a blue moon. – Armaan Malik
The big reason why we don’t have space colonies and regular trips to the moon is that flying into outer space is just plain ‘hard.’ The business of safely transporting people off the Earth is a costly affair that requires a lot of technology. – Ben Parr
You wouldn’t want to land on the Moon and launch to Mars. That would be very inefficient. – Charles Duke
As we begin to have landings on the moon, we can alternate those with vertical launch of similar crew modules on similar launch vehicles for vertical-launch tourism in space, if you want to call it that… adventure travel. – Buzz Aldrin
When people want to see your film, you’re over the moon because you’ve actually made real contact. That’s something very special. – Charlotte Rampling
Before this country came on the scene, for thousands of years people did things the same way. Within 200 years of the advent of this nation, men were walking on the moon, and I want us to recognize this is the kind of people that we are. We’re creative with a lot of ingenuity and a lot of energy. – Ben Carson
But I’m the only one who can paint the moon, because I’m the only one who knows whether that’s right or not. – Alan Bean
Of course, mankind would not have landed on the Moon in 1969, were it not for two things: conquered Nazi rocket technology and post-war anti-Communist paranoia in the United States. – Charles Duke
I watched the first people walk on the moon, and to me, it was just an obvious thing – I want to somehow turn myself into that. But the real question is, how do you deal with the danger of it and the fear that comes from it? How do you deal with fear versus danger? – Chris Hadfield
Point-to-point transit via low orbit could dramatically speed up international flights, connecting the world even further. And safe, consistent space travel opens up the possibility of commercial space stations, trips to the moon and exploration beyond. – Ben Parr
I promise to be an excellent husband, but give me a wife who, like the moon, will not appear every day in my sky. – Anton Chekhov
It certainly is possible to construct a moon base in such a way that crews could stay for extended periods of time. – Charles Duke
To an observer situated on the moon or on one of the planets, the most noticeable feature on the surface of our globe would no doubt be the large areas covered by oceanic water. The sunlit face of the earth would appear to shine by the light diffused back into space from the land and water-covered areas. – C. V. Raman
You ready? I have gold teeth, I have braids, I’m wearing Rick Owens moon boots, I have rips in my denim, a biker vest, I love artsy girls, my favourite artists are Jimi Hendrix and John Lennon. I’m obsessed with being different. – ASAP Rocky
Exploring Mars is a far different venture from Apollo expeditions to the moon; it necessitates leaving our home planet on lengthy missions with a constrained return capability. – Buzz Aldrin
The day will dawn when all the people of Ireland will have the desire for freedom to show. It is then we’ll see the rising of the moon. – Bobby Sands
Terry said he had this new kid and his wife didn’t want to live in England. He wanted to tour. He hated being in the studio. Terry liked seeing various bars the world over and getting smashed out of his brain. He was a sort of latent Keith Moon. – Andy Partridge
Some of the greatest reality television we ever had was the moon landings. When you think about it, that was human emotion and people, unscripted, working with each other – and millions and millions of people around the world, glued to their television sets to share real-time in a brand new, fascinating human experience. – Chris Hadfield
If China was like the moon, then arriving in Saudi Arabia was Mars. At least you can see the moon from Earth. – Basmah bint Saud
