Neil Armstrong was the first man to walk on the moon. I am the first man to piss his pants on the moon.

All the Chinese have to do is fly around the Moon and back, and they'll appear to have won the return to the Moon with humans. They could put one person on the surface of the Moon for one day and he'd be a national hero.

Somebody would think I was trying to get favored treatment because my ancestors had the name Moon. And that's a joke.

To move forward, what's required is a unified space agenda based on exploration, science, development, commerce, and security.

To me, money is a commodity that a person must have to function, not a goal in itself.

Space tourism is a logical outgrowth of the adventure tourist market.

Timing has always been a key element in my life. I have been blessed to have been in the right place at the right time.
