You can only inspire when you give people a new way of looking at the world in which they live.

NASA's annual budget for space exploration could fund NOAA's budget for ocean exploration for 1600 years.

What drives me is exploration with a purpose, more the classic Royal Geographical Society genre.

There are more active volcanoes beneath the sea than on land by two orders of magnitude.

If you compare NASA's annual budget to explore the heavens, that one year budget would fund NOAA's budget to explore the oceans for 1,600 years.

I love all of the Earth.

I mean, technology is amoral. It has no morality.
