In a very real sense, it will not be one man going to the moon it will be an entire nation. For all of us must work to put him there.
If we hadn’t put a man on the moon, there wouldn’t be a Silicon Valley today.
I’ve never seen a moon in the sky that, if it didn’t take my breath away, at least misplaced it for a moment.
I was born on a full moon. Both my children were born on full moons, too. Some people say that’s scary. It is what it is, man, I don’t be trippin’. I couldn’t tell God when I wanted to be born.
I can still remember them wheeling the black and white TV sets into our classroom at school so we could watch the men landing on the Moon, and that obviously had a huge impact. I later found out those people flying Apollo were ex-military test pilots, so I decided to join the Air Force and become a test pilot.
Here I am at the turn of the millennium and I’m still the last man to have walked on the moon, somewhat disappointing. It says more about what we have not done than about what we have done.
My mother’s face floated to mind, a pale, reproachful moon, at her last and first visit to the asylum since my twentieth birthday. A daughter in an asylum! I had done that to her. Still, she had obviously decided to forgive me.
Over the tops of it, beginning to dusk under a young white moon, trailed a wavering ghost of smoke, and at the end of it I came upon the Pocket Hunter making a dry camp in the friendly scrub.
In history class, I wrote a poem, ‘The Royalists and the Roundheads.’ I would write poems about driftwood in art class and little stories about the sun, moon, and stars in science class. Since not many kids were writing in class, I got away with it.
When I posted my first video, I remember it hit 700 views after a week, and I was like, ‘Oh my God, this is amazing.’ I was over the moon.
The moon I see now is the same moon I saw before. Except that before, when I looked at it, it was in anticipation of what it would be like when I got there. That’s behind me now.
I designed a system to project video on the moon for all of humanity to see. I did this sort of as therapy as I was doing my Ph.D. in device physics.
You thought the stage, you thought Broadway: that was the pot at the end of the rainbow. The idea of being in Hollywood was like going to the Moon or Mars.
I repeat that the distance between the earth and her satellite is a mere trifle, and undeserving of serious consideration. I am convinced that before twenty years are over, one-half of our earth will have paid a visit to the moon.
It didn’t matter if we put out ‘The Dark Side Of The Moon,’ we weren’t going to be liked by everyone.
I can play many roles, a guy who takes on a challenge on very short notice with potentially damaging results, if I make the wrong move… I shoot for the stars. If I get the moon, I’m OK with that.
One of the things I like so much about ‘Goodnight Moon’ is the way it leaves room for ambiguity.
At a young age, I became interested in space and science after watching the U.S. land on the moon for the first time.
Innovation is what America does best. Whether it is the Apollo Project to the moon, developing the most advanced defense technologies available, the rise of the Internet or the latest advancements in biomedical gene therapies, our nation leads the world in transformative innovations.
If I tell you there’s cheese on the moon, bring the crackers.
Science has improved public health, taken us to the moon, and allowed us to understand the origins of our universe. It also has given us the tools to solve problems now instead of reacting to them after it is too late.
We’ve gotta reinvest in space travel. We should’ve never left the moon.
Donald Trump’s administration is floating a proposal to return to the moon – and to shut down the International Space Station to help pay for it. The first part of this idea is good. The second is horrible.
What can we gain by sailing to the moon if we are not able to cross the abyss that separates us from ourselves? This is the most important of all voyages of discovery, and without it, all the rest are not only useless, but disastrous.
The Sun, Moon and Stars are there to guide us.
You don’t have to be a Kerli fan to be a Moon Child, and you don’t have to be a Moon Child to be a Kerli fan. You just have to make the best of what you have and have compassion for yourself and for others always.
Apparently, we’ve been to the moon in 1969, 1970. We’ve been there six times, I don’t believe a word of it. Some people do.
The moon of a bright silver, which dazzles by its shining, illumines a world which surely is no longer ours; for it resembles in nothing what may be seen in other lands.
The Chinese are planning a manned mission to the moon sometime after 2020, and subsequently, to Mars. The U.S. has abandoned that dream.
Well, my friend, this earth will one day be that cold corpse; it will become uninhabitable and uninhabited like the moon, which has long since lost all its vital heat.
We are creatures of the earth and live on this planet through the powers of the sun and moon and through all facets of nature so I want our odyssey to the ‘Metal Galaxy’ to be one that we constantly appreciate how much we are able to travel the world through the power of music.
Flying, for some reason, has never been my favorite thing, but after taking some aviation classes and reading about it and learning about it… They’ve been doing this for over a hundred years, they’ve been to the moon and back; they kind of have a good system going here.
For the past two years, President Obama has promised our children the moon, stars, rainbows, unicorns and universal health care for all. But the White House Santa’s cradle-to-grave entitlement mandates are a spectacularly predictable bust.
If I know a song of Africa, of the giraffe and the African new moon lying on her back, of the plows in the fields and the sweaty faces of the coffee pickers, does Africa know a song of me?
The Weezer ‘Blue’ Album is a classic. I think My Morning Jacket’s ‘Circuital’ is a great album to have. Any Led Zeppelin album. Pink Floyd ‘The Dark Side Of The Moon’ or ‘Animals.’ I always catch myself at concerts being like, ‘Oh, I just stared at the drummer for 15 straight minutes.’ I study them.
In fact, Moon came on tour with us for a bit just before a big festival in Brighton, I think.
Women, we might as well be dogs baying the moon as petitioners without the right to vote!
I want the government to focus on the stuff we cannot yet do, like beginning to learn how we can live in space long enough to go to Mars or how to build and operate human communities on the Moon and Mars.
Once in a blue moon, everything will be right with the man in the sky, and when I start singing ‘I Love a Rainy Night,’ from out of nowhere, there will be lightning and thunder. I just say, ‘Folks, we’ve got the best special effects guy in the world, so let’s get wet together.’
When I moved to Cleveland, defense research was laying the foundations for the Internet. The Apollo program was just about to put a man on the moon – and it was Neil Armstrong, from right here in Ohio. The future felt limitless. But today, our government is broken.
Traditional science assumes, for the most part, that an objective observer independent reality exists; the universe, stars, galaxies, sun, moon and earth would still be there if no one was looking.
I was as huge Spider-Man fan as a kid, but I really liked The Defenders a lot. I was also a big Moon Knight fan for some reason.
The moon, by her comparative proximity, and the constantly varying appearances produced by her several phases, has always occupied a considerable share of the attention of the inhabitants of the earth.
I’m a conspiracy theorist. I can’t help but look at the lunar landing and go, ‘We didn’t go to the moon.’ We never went there. My dad worked for NASA on the Apollo missions, and I’ve always felt it’s been fake since I was a kid.
I was the class clown, you know, that kind of thing, and I gathered around me a group of guys who also were silly. I was in all the plays and everything. But I don’t know, at that time show businesses looked like the moon, you know, it was so far away. I wanted to be a radio announcer.
I’m as old as the moon and the stars, and as young as the trees and the lakes. My style comes from looking at what came before me, and from visiting a lot of places.
My earliest memory is my mom picking me up after I had fallen down, giving me a big hug and reading me ‘Goodnight Moon.’ From that moment, to this one, every single memory I have of my mom is that regardless of what was happening in her life, she was always, always there for me.
Michael was more excited than I was. He was over the moon about having a kid.
My walk on the moon lasted three days. My walk with God will last forever.
I remember looking at the moon as an 8-year-old and marveling that there were two astronauts in a lander on the surface, getting ready to go out and actually walk. That settled it for me: I knew I was going to at least try to become an astronaut. I wanted to be like those guys.
We can dream about putting a man on the Moon, and within a decade, we actually made it happen.
Of course, mankind would not have landed on the Moon in 1969, were it not for two things: conquered Nazi rocket technology and post-war anti-Communist paranoia in the United States.
