More quotes by Buzz Aldrin
By venturing into space, we improve life for everyone here on Earth - scientific advances and innovations that come from this kind of research create products we use in our daily lives.
Buzz Aldrin
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.
Buzz Aldrin
In space, you don't get that much noise. Noise doesn't propagate in a vacuum.
Buzz Aldrin
Everyone who's been in space would, I'm sure, welcome the opportunity for a return to the exhilarating experiences there.
Buzz Aldrin
The best way to study Mars is with two hands, eyes and ears of a geologist, first at a moon orbiting Mars... and then on the surface.
Buzz Aldrin
The moon I see now is the same moon I saw before. Except that before, when I looked at it, it was in anticipation of what it would be like when I got there. That's behind me now.
Buzz Aldrin
Is the destiny of the human species to sit back and play with our mouse and computer and imagine, fantasize?
Buzz Aldrin
Computers allow us to squeeze the most out of everything, whether it's Google looking up things, so I guess that tends to make us a little lazy about reading books and doing things the hard way to understand how those things work.
Buzz Aldrin
I was given permission to serve myself Communion, with wine and a wafer, on the surface on the Moon. But I was advised not to say anything about it at the time. Someone had strongly objected to the Apollo 8 crew reading from the Bible. We didn't want to get into any further trouble with the religious critics.
Buzz Aldrin
I didn't start skiing until I was 50. My wife Lois taught me how to ski. I'm proficiently conservative.
Buzz Aldrin
There is very little doubt, in my mind, that what the next monumental achievement of humanity will be the first landing by an Earthling, a human being, on the planet Mars.
Buzz Aldrin
The beauty of Hawaii probably surpasses other places. I like the Big Island and the two mountains, Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea, where you can look out at the stars.
Buzz Aldrin
We're number one on the runway.
Buzz Aldrin
The universe is the way it is. It's not going to be changed by supplications.
Buzz Aldrin
We can't start over and develop a Saturn 5-type vehicle from scratch.
Buzz Aldrin
You can tell I'm not too bashful about some of my feelings.
Buzz Aldrin
I don't believe any pair of people had been more removed physically from the rest of the world than we were.
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
A space program that truly goes somewhere! With his deeds, not only words, President Obama has revitalized our struggling space program.
Buzz Aldrin
We need to begin thinking about building permanence on the Red Planet, not just have voyagers do some experiments, plant a flag and claim success. Having them go there, repeat this, in my view, is dim-witted. Why not stay there?
