It’s absolutely stupid that we live without an ozone layer. We have men, we’ve got rockets, we’ve got saran wrap – fix it!
Believe in God, for with the grace of God the American rockets will go astray and we will be saved.
The rockets… can be built so powerfully that they could be capable of carrying a man aloft.
Claiming that solid rockets are necessary for a heavy-lift launcher is obvious nonsense.
Sometimes people wonder why aeroplanes are so cheap and rockets are so expensive. Even the most superficial comparison shows one obvious difference: aeroplane engines use outside air to burn their fuel, while rockets have to carry their own oxidisers along.
I think the whole Rockets organization has done amazing things.
Like Iran and Syria supplied Hezbollah with sophisticated anti-tank rockets – Matisse, Cornet, and other RPGs that caused great damage to Israeli tanks and Israeli infantry in 2006 – they did the same in Gaza with Hamas.
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.
Building and launching rockets has been a lifelong hobby that my son and I share. We regularly travel to Nevada’s Black Rock Desert to launch rockets.
It was the point where things became much more abstract and less literal than in the bulk of the film, which was hardcore rockets and space and planets – all a fairly straightforward evolution from what I had been doing before.
The guns and the bombs, the rockets and the warships, are all symbols of human failure.
It’s tough out there, but obviously I have a lot of great memories and a lot of pride for being a part of the Rockets organization.
Rockets are cool. There’s no getting around that.
I was quiet, a loner. I was one of those children where, if you put me in a room and gave me some crayons and a pencils, you wouldn’t hear from me for nine straight hours. And I was always drawing racing cars and rockets and spaceships and planes, things that were very fast that would take me away.
The Rockets have a philosophy of what they think their coach should be.
Growing up in the 1960s, I can’t remember a time when I wasn’t fascinated by airplanes and rockets.
The Rockets paid a healthy price for Chris Paul.
Depressives have led countries, won wars, flown rockets to the moon, made great music. Don’t let depression stop you employing someone, and never let it cause you to judge them. Depression is not a person. Like any other illness, it is something that happens to a person. It shouldn’t define them.
Once solved, the severe handicaps imposed on space exploration by the weight and chemical limitations of rockets would no longer apply. The whole timetable of our conquest of the planets in our solar system would be tremendously speeded up, from hot Mercury all the way out to frigid Pluto.
Until I began to build and launch rockets, I didn’t know my hometown was at war with itself over its children and that my parents were locked in a kind of bloodless combat over how my brother and I would live our lives.
