Program Alarm, it's a 1202.
Buzz Aldrin

Well, we have seen a wonder. We ought to count our blessings.

Once, when we were playing at the Apollo Theater, Holiday was working a block away at the Harlem Opera House. Some of us went over between shows to catch her, and afterwards we went backstage. I did something then, and I still don't know if it was the right thing to do—I asked her for her autograph.

It's different, but it's very pretty out here. I suppose they are going to make a big deal of all this.
Neil Armstrong
Image
Cut is the branch that might have grown full straight, And burned is Apollo's laurel bough, That sometime grew within this learned man. Faustus is gone.
Christopher Marlowe
Image
There's a historical milestone in the fact that our Apollo 11 landing on the moon took place a mere 66 years after the Wright Brothers' first flight.
Buzz Aldrin

Red cattle, Annabeth said. The cattle of the sun. What? I [Percy] asked. They're sacred to Apollo. Holy cows?
Rick Riordan

Comparing your family budget to the sovereign debt of the United States is a little like comparing two kindergartners tossing a paper airplane to the Apollo 11 mission.

Space has not changed but technology has, in many cases, improved dramatically. A good example is digital technology where today's cell phones are far more powerful than the computers on the Apollo Command Module and Lunar Module that we used to navigate to the moon and operate all the spacecraft control systems.
Neil Armstrong

Space is not a two-year objective. It used to be, in the early '60's, we had this eye candy of Mercury and Gemini and Apollo and every year we would do something more and more and it met those needs. But the easy stuff has been done.

My first hip-hop performance was at Carnegie Hall with Wyclef, ... I got a little feature and he announced me as the 'hip-hop violinist.' The next night I played at the Apollo.

The important achievement of Apollo was demonstrating that humanity is not forever chained to this planet, and our visions go rather further than that, and our opportunities are unlimited.
Neil Armstrong
Image
Apollo was a big, unwieldy vehicle. I had a problem with the flight controllers over that. It would try to fare its way like an airplane.
Wally Schirra
Image
I felt like one of Apollo's sacred cows- slow, dumb, and bright red.
Rick Riordan

This is the LM pilot. I'd like to take this opportunity to ask every person listening in, whoever and wherever they may be, to pause for a moment and contemplate the events of the past few hours and to give thanks in his or her own way.
Buzz Aldrin
Image
blue bead on the wick, there's that in me that burns and chills, blackening my heart with its soot, I think sometimes not Apollo heard me but a different god.
Denise Levertov
Image
When we were at the Apollo, Holiday was a block away. I asked her for her autograph.
Ella Fitzgerald
Image
As you pass from sunlight into darkness and back again every hour and a half, you become startlingly aware how artificial are thousands of boundaries we've created to separate and define. And for the first time in your life you feel in your gut the precious unity of the Earth and all the living things it supports.
Rusty Schweickart

Roger, we copy. It was beautiful from here, Tranquility. Over.
Charles Duke
Image
In sculpture did ever anybody call the Apollo a fancy piece? Or say of the Laocoon how it might be made different? A masterpiece of art has in the mind a fixed place in the chain of being, as much as a plant or a crystal.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Image
He who commands an Apollo flight will not command a second one
Wally Schirra
Image
I used to be a street performer, and performances on Venice Beach, it's like playing the Apollo: They let you know if they don't like you!
Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa

The words of Mercury are harsh after the songs of Apollo.
William Shakespeare
Image
Nor does Apollo keep his bow continually drawn. [Lat., Neque semper arcum Tendit Apollo.]
Horace
