On Apollo 11 In Route To The Moon, I Observed A Light Out The Window That Appeared To Be Moving Alongside Us. It Was Either The Rocket We Had Separated From, Or The 4 Panels That Moved Away When We Extracted The Lander From The Rocket And We Were Nose To Nose With The Two Spacecraft. So In The Close Vicinity, Moving Away, Were 4 Panels. And I Feel Absolutely Convinced That We Were Looking At The Sun Reflected Off Of One Of These Panels.

I Poured The Wine Into The Chalice Our Church Had Given Me. In The One-sixth Gravity Of The Moon The Wine Curled Slowly And Gracefully Up The Side Of The Cup. It Was Interesting To Think That The Very First Liquid Ever Poured On The Moon, And The First Food Eaten There, Were Communion Elements.

We Should Go Boldly Where Man Has Not Gone Before. Fly By The Comets, Visit Asteroids, Visit The Moon Of Mars. There's A Monolith There. A Very Unusual Structure On This Potato Shaped Object That Goes Around Mars Once In Seven Hours. When People Find Out About That They're Going To Say 'who Put That There? Who Put That There?' The Universe Put It There. If You Choose, God Put It There.

Absolutely The United States Should Lead In Space, For The Survival Of The United States. It's Inspiring For The Next Generation. If We Lose Leadership, Then We'll Be Using Chinese Capability To Inspire Americans.

I Don't Believe Any Pair Of People Had Been More Removed Physically From The Rest Of The World Than We Were.
