You can tell I'm not too bashful about some of my feelings.
Buzz Aldrin

Mars has a bit of air pressure maybe we can build up that atmosphere to be a bit more accommodating to humans.
Buzz Aldrin
Image
In space, you don't get that much noise. Noise doesn't propagate in a vacuum.
Buzz Aldrin
Image
Returning to the Moon with NASA astronauts is not the best usage of our resources. Because OUR resources should be directed to outward, beyond-the-moon, to establishing habitation and laboratories on the surface of Mars that can be built, assembled, from the close-by moons of Mars.

Because of his military service, Dad was buried in Arlington National Cemetery.

I felt pretty confident in relieving myself, since I had the urge.

The pilgrims on the Mayflower landed at Plymouth Rock. To my knowledge, they didn't wait around for a return trip to Europe. You settle some place with a purpose. If you don't want to do that, stay home. You avoid an awful lot of risks by not venturing outward.

My first inclination is to be a bit skeptical about the claims that human-produced carbon dioxide is the direct contributor to global warming.

Mars has been flown by, orbited, smacked into, radar examined, and rocketed onto, as well as bounced upon, rolled over, shoveled, drilled into, baked and even blasted. Still to come: Mars being stepped on.
Buzz Aldrin
Image
I'm not in favor of just taking short-term isolated situations and depleting our resources to keep our climate just the way it is today.
Buzz Aldrin
Image
I suggest that going to Mars means permanence on the planet - a mission by which we are building up a confidence level to become a two-planet species.
Buzz Aldrin
Image
We can't start over and develop a Saturn 5-type vehicle from scratch.
Buzz Aldrin
Image
Walking around on the moon was significantly easier than we'd thought it would be. There weren't any balance problems, so you weren't tumbling over.
Buzz Aldrin
Image
It's real easy to manufacture what you think the people want to hear. But that's not very honest.
Buzz Aldrin
Image
Over the years, I think I've matured in my spiritual evolution and development to understand a bit more than the narrow religious thinking - to move beyond that through a sort of perfection of the grandiose nature of the universe, and how perfect it is it in its sense and how satisfied we should all be in our place in that.
Buzz Aldrin
Image
The feeling of reduced gravity and the limitations of the space suit resulted in a slow-motion movement. Perhaps not too far from a trampoline, but without the springiness and instability.
Buzz Aldrin
Image
Some things just can't be described. And stepping onto the moon was one of them.
Buzz Aldrin
Image
The final frontier may be human relationships, one person to another.
Buzz Aldrin
Image
I was lucky enough to have been born on this planet earth, in this admirable country of the United States of America.

Russia perhaps is still entertaining the possibility that the moons of Mars might have access to ice or water.
