A zero-gravity flight is a first step toward space travel.
I believe you’ll see a low Earth orbit space travel business begin.
I think you’re going to see an interest in space tourism, space travel for the sake of travel.
When the history books are written in a thousand years, when space travel would have become routine, the moment that humans first left Earth will be of huge importance. Star City is a central part of this story and it deserves more recognition.
Science fiction is filled with Martians and space travel to other planets, and things like that.
What SF author or fan isn’t interested in human space travel? I’ve yet to meet one.
We have one planet in our solar system that’s habitable, and that’s the Earth, and space travel can transform things back here for the better. First of all, by just having people go to space and look back on this fragile planet we live on. People have come back transformed and have done fantastic things.
Science does not just drive space travel – space travel also drives science.
I thought any chance I had of space travel would be military or government-controlled.
All these things that we’ve contemplated, whether it’s space travel or solutions to diseases that plague us, Ebola virus, all of these things would be a lot more tractable if the machines are trying to solve these problems.
The president felt that it was important to send an ordinary citizen to experience the excitement of space travel as a representative for all Americans.
When ‘Apollo 13’ appeared as an opportunity and I began to tackle that in as authentic a way as I possibly could, I really became enthralled by the philosophical side of space travel and why we need to explore – what it means to us here on Earth – all of those things. I became a huge proponent.
I think space will be conquered through the mind rather than the clumsy medium of space travel.
I understand that space travel and expansion is just as much about altering ourselves, our attitudes, our social structures, our very biology, as it is about altering the places we choose to live.
While human space travel is daunting, machines – with their indefinitely long lifetimes – could travel the galaxy. It might make little difference to them that bridging the distance from one star to the next could take hundreds of thousands of years or more.
With every inch of land on Earth now catalogued by our satellites, the stars are the next place we as a species must travel. And with a booming world population that will hit 9.1 billion in 2050, large-scale space travel may become a necessity.
As lifespan increases fertility rates go down all over the world. Humans will create better technology and space travel will increase. These are all good signs for the future.
Man is an artifact designed for space travel. He is not designed to remain in his present biologic state any more than a tadpole is designed to remain a tadpole.
We’ve gotta reinvest in space travel. We should’ve never left the moon.
I’m happy here on the surface of the earth. If space travel ever got to be as simple as jet travel today, yeah, I’d take a jet flight to the moon.
The most important thing we can do is inspire young minds and to advance the kind of science, math and technology education that will help youngsters take us to the next phase of space travel.
The reason I wanted to do ‘The First Men in the Moon’ was that there is something so challenging in the combination of space travel and the Edwardian period.
I think a lot of the American people feel more than a little disappointed that the high-water mark for human exploration was 1969. The dream of human space travel has almost died for a lot of people.
Space travel is the only technology that is more dangerous and more expensive now than it was in its first year. Fifty years after Yuri Gagarin, the space shuttle ended up being more dangerous and more expensive to fly than those first throwaway rockets, even though large portions of it were reusable. It’s absurd.
There are few aspects of everyday life that aren’t touched by the technologies developed for space travel.
I’m obsessed with the moon and space travel, so if I could incorporate that, I’d love to go to space.
There is no scientific reason to think that we, even with space travel, are going to survive as a species for ever, certainly not by biting off the hand that feeds us, which is exactly what we are doing.
There’s going to be space travel at some point.
Look how far the human race has come in terms of air and space travel in the last hundred years. So in the next couple of thousand years, you’ve got to believe that we’re going to be able to do all kinds of amazing things.
At the moment I’m doing this space movie, so I’m obsessed with physics and space travel. I know three months down the line it’s gone. Then I’ll be able to superficially say stuff about space.
Planet colonization is not a short term concern of mine. The physical limitations of space travel render it low on the list for me.
No one cares about race or religion or nationality in space travel. We’re all just part of Team Human.
Everyone gets very excited about the idea of space travel, but… it’s not going to be everybody that gets to go.

I cannot wait to get up there and experience space travel for the first time. It will be a dream come true.
Growing up in the ’60s and early ’70s, with the space flight and the Apollo program, I always loved planes. I always loved rockets and I always loved space travel.
I hope there will be continued U.K. investment in human spaceflight to enable Britain to benefit from space travel in the longer term and that many more Britons – women and men – will travel into space.
Point-to-point transit via low orbit could dramatically speed up international flights, connecting the world even further. And safe, consistent space travel opens up the possibility of commercial space stations, trips to the moon and exploration beyond.
From the way that we build cars or going after space travel, I get excited about the transportation space because it’s the second-highest household expense after housing.
I think maths is the root of everything. If we understood every area of math, it would lead to improving our sense of science, physics, engineering, space travel… all those great things. Maths is a backbone for it.
