More quotes by William Anders
You could see the flames and the outer skin of the spacecraft glowing and burning, baseball size chunks flying off behind us. It was an eerie feeling, like being a gnat inside a blowtorch flame.
William Anders
We came all this way to explore the Moon, and the most important thing is that we discovered the Earth.
William Anders
I think the thing that impressed me the most was the Lunar's sunrises and sunsets. These in particular bring out the stark nature of the terrain. . . . The horizon here is very, very stark, the sky is pitch black and the earth, or the moon rather, excuse me, is quite light, and the contrast between the sky and the moon is a vivid dark line.
William Anders
It's tiny out there...it's inconsequential. It's ironic that we had come to study the Moon and it was really discovering the Earth.
William Anders
Looks like a sand pile my kids have been playing in for a long time - it's all beat up - no definition - just a lot of bumps and holes.
