A picture does a great job, but it's not nearly like being there.

I am comfortable with my level of public discourse.

Now and then I miss the excitement about being in the cockpit of an airplane and doing new things.

I guess we all like to be recognized not for one piece of fireworks but for the ledger of our daily work.

The view of the moon that we've been having recently is really spectacular. It fills about three-quarters of the hatch window, and of course we can see the entire circumference even though part of it is in complete shadow and part of it is in earthshine. It's a view worth the price of the trip.

Well, I think we tried very hard not to be overconfident, because when you get overconfident, that's when something snaps up and bites you.

Man must understand his universe in order to understand his destiny.
