I grew up in New Jersey and never went up the Statue of Liberty.

My favourite thing to do on this planet is to scuba dive.

I think I need to continue to think and plan and marry all of the different things that we could do that make transportation in space from the earth to the space station, from the earth to the moon to space stations around the moon to visiting an asteroid.

American greatness was elevated significantly after Sputnik.

I want to keep on the move, keep stimulated and challenged.

Most people never believed in the real possibility of going to the moon, and neither did I until I was in my twenties.

Some things just can't be described. And stepping onto the moon was one of them.
