Buzz Aldrin
Look at what Silicon Valley has done - the advance of computers.
Buzz Aldrin
My expertise is the space program and what it should be in the future based on my experience of looking at the transitions that we've made between pre-Sputnik days and getting to the moon.
Buzz Aldrin
I think humans will reach Mars, and I would like to see it happen in my lifetime.
Buzz Aldrin
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.
Buzz Aldrin
America can take man to the moon, and America can take men to Mars - and beyond.
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
We need the next generation to be motivated and to push technological boundaries, to seek out new innovations.
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
My first inclination is to be a bit skeptical about the claims that human-produced carbon dioxide is the direct contributor to global warming.
Buzz Aldrin
What comes after the moon? I think you can guess: Mars.
Buzz Aldrin
My own American Dream was to serve my country as best I could and make a difference in America - and in the world.
Buzz Aldrin
Going to Mars would evolve humankind into a two-planet species.
Buzz Aldrin
There's no doubt who was a leader in space after the Apollo Program. Nobody came close to us. And our education system, in science, technology, engineering and math, was at the top of the world. It's no longer there. We're descending rather rapidly.
Buzz Aldrin
They didn’t tell me I was going into space until after they locked the shuttle doors and started counting down.
Buzz Aldrin
I came to dedicate my life to opening space to the average person and crafting designs for new spaceships that could take us far from home. But since Apollo ended, such travels were only in our collective memory.
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
American greatness was elevated significantly after Sputnik.
Buzz Aldrin
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.
