Astronauts are very professional and when they're preparing for launch, they prepare for it as the most serious endeavor of our lives.
Ellen Ochoa
Image
Astronauts are not superhuman. They lead ordinary lives and have varied personalities.
Buzz Aldrin
Image
Astronauts and teachers are much more amazing than actors.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
Image
Astronauts are inherently insane. And really noble.
Andy Weir
Image
I wanted to be an astronaut and wanted to go to space camp, but then I found out that I was too short to become an astronaut. My mom really made me believe that if I worked hard enough and if I really wanted to do it, I could do it.
Soleil Moon Frye

I don't particularly care about photographic authorship. Whether an astronaut who doesn't even have a viewfinder makes an image, a robotic camera, a military photographer, or Mike Light really doesn't matter. What matters is the context of the final photograph and the meaning it generates within that context.
Michael Light

So [Polaroid's Dr. Edwin] Land, at 75, went off to spend the remainder of his life doing pure science, trying to crack the code of color vision. The man is a national treasure. I don't understand why people like that can't be held up as models: This is the most incredible thing to be - not an astronaut, not a football player - but this.
Steve Jobs

If you look at astronauts closely, their eyes look kind of puffy. And it gives you this mild headache. But one of the advantages of that, if you will.
Mike Mullane

I like acting for now. But after seeing Apollo 13, what I really want to do is to be an astronaut. I'm dying to go to a space camp next summer!
Natalie Portman

Growing up in the shadow of Johnson Space Center and moving to Texas to welcome our last moon mission home, I wanted to be an astronaut. Combined with my love for Navy history and World War II flight ops, and unsatisfying degrees in college and law school, I joined the Navy and became a naval aviator.

Golf camaraderie, like that of astronauts and Antarctic explorers, is based on a common experience of transcendence fat or thin, scratch or duffer, we have been somerwhere together where non-golfers never go.
John Updike
Image
I think that witnessing ecological problems visible from space is one of the new and essential roles of astronauts
Philippe Perrin
Image
The only negative thing is that I got into acting thinking, One day I'll be a cowboy, the next day I'll be an astronaut. Maybe I'll be a fireman. It seems that I'm destined to play smart people in suits. I'd rather have that than no niche.
Joshua Malina

Every single astronaut who has come back from space comes back determined to do more to protect it.
Richard Branson
Image
Most people here don't have a wide emotional range. It's just the type of people astronauts are, they're required to be level.
Julie Payette
Image
You don't believe that the Earth is round only if you're an astronaut. You don't believe Napoleon existed only if you're a historian. You believe these things because they're facts, proved by evidence.
Richard Dawkins
Image
Some of the senior people, the very senior astronauts, shook my hand and said, 'K.C., you did a great job. Don't let anyone tell you different.'
Kalpana Chawla

If my vision was good enough, I'd be an astronaut.
Robert Crais

Well, the coolest thing I have seen so far, in terms of, like, me being an astronaut and seeing something unusual, was the rendezvous, the docking of a Progress spaceship.
Kevin A. Ford

Listening to critics is like letting Muhammad Ali decide which astronaut goes to the moon.
Robert Duvall

I think it's good to have competition. Now we have a third country that can launch astronauts, so it's good for all of us. It makes us a little bit more competitive and wanting to be the leader.
Leroy Chiao
Image
I didn't really decide that I wanted to be an astronaut for sure until the end of college.
Sally Ride
Image
I'm Chinese-American, of course, and so it's very interesting to see China actually launch their own astronauts, becoming the third nation, following the United States and Russia, to do so.

On a standard space shuttle crew, two of the astronauts have a test pilot background - the commander and the pilot.
