The final frontier may be human relationships, one person to another.

I realize that my life is not the common ordinary person.

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

The purpose of going to Mars is for humans to first begin to occupy, permanently, another planet in the solar system. The astronauts or pilgrims, whatever you might call them, are going to be very historically unique human beings.

I wrote 'Reaching for the Moon' because I wanted to tell kids that all of us have a moon, a dream, that we can strive for. Even if you don't attain it, you can at least reach for it.

I don't believe any pair of people had been more removed physically from the rest of the world than we were.

'Anthony and the Magic Picture Frame' tells it like it really was in America's early space program - the adventure, the risks, and the rewards.
