I feel we need to remind the world about the Apollo missions and that we can still do impossible things.
Buzz Aldrin
Image
Somebody would think I was trying to get favored treatment because my ancestors had the name Moon. And that's a joke.
Buzz Aldrin
Image
I want people to go into space, to orbit around the world a few times, even to stay there for 24 hours and then come back to where they took off. And I also want people with a low income to be able to do that, not only rich people.

Image
To appropriately respond to an emergency requires a very clear mind, to cooly analyze what the observations are and how to fix it.

Image
The universe is the way it is. It's not going to be changed by supplications.

Climate has been changing for billions of years.
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.

Neil Armstrong was the first man to walk on the moon. I am the first man to piss his pants on the moon.

In Mars, we've been given a wonderful set of moons where we can send continuous numbers of people.

No dream is too high for those with their eyes in the sky!

I think the people who experienced the Apollo missions came away from that experience wondering to themselves, 'When can we get a chance to experience spaceflight?' I've heard that many, many times: that people got into a new career field hoping that they would be able to experience spaceflight.

I participated with great honor in becoming one of the first to land on the moon, and now I am devoting and have devoted many years of my life to enabling Americans to lead international nations to permanence on the planet Mars.
Buzz Aldrin

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.'
Buzz Aldrin
Image
I am excited to think that the development of commercial capabilities to send humans into low Earth orbit will likely result in so many more Earthlings being able to experience the transformative power of space flight.
Buzz Aldrin
Image
Instead of planning the retirement of the Space Shuttle program, America should be preparing the shuttles for their next step in space: evolving, not shutting them down and laying off thousands of people.
Buzz Aldrin
Image
Mars could very well be a staging location for the resources of the asteroid belt. We have to learn how to get a payback somewhere, but it's beyond Mars that the real payoff will come from minerals.
Buzz Aldrin
Image
Retain the vision for space exploration. If we turn our backs on the vision again, we're going to have to live in a secondary position in human space flight for the rest of the century.

NASA needs to focus on the things that are really important and that we do not know how to do. The agency is a pioneering force, and that is where its competitive advantage lies.
Buzz Aldrin
Image
When we can demonstrate that we can take off horizontally and put something into orbit, then we can begin to talk about increasing the amount of payload. But to say, 'I'm going to do that and put people into orbit' is a real leap.

Exploring and colonizing Mars can bring us new scientific understanding of climate change, of how planet-wide processes can make a warm and wet world into a barren landscape. By exploring and understanding Mars, we may gain key insights into the past and future of our own world.
