More quotes by Buzz Aldrin

Buzz Aldrin
The universe is the way it is. It's not going to be changed by supplications.
Buzz Aldrin
The much-hyped Ares 1-X was much ado about nothing.

Buzz Aldrin
'Anthony and the Magic Picture Frame' tells it like it really was in America's early space program - the adventure, the risks, and the rewards.
Buzz Aldrin
You need propellants to accelerate toward Mars, then to decelerate at Mars, again to re-accelerate from Mars to Earth, and finally to decelerate back at Earth. Accordingly, the mass of these required propellants, in short, drives our need for innovative launch vehicles.
Buzz Aldrin
I want to reach a new generation. That's why I am Twittering now. I have a BlackBerry, an iPhone and a Mac.

When the time comes to start building deep space transports and refueling rocket tankers, it will be the commercial industry that steps up, not another government-owned, government-managed enterprise.
Buzz Aldrin
For a million dollars, the Russians would take two people, a million apiece, around the moon and back. However, stories, videos that come from the space station, and other people, are a great inspiration to young people for an exciting career field.
Buzz Aldrin
Somebody would think I was trying to get favored treatment because my ancestors had the name Moon. And that's a joke.
Buzz Aldrin
I do celebrity ski races all over the world.
Buzz Aldrin
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
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
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
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
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.
