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.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm quite disappointed that I'm still the last man on the moon.
Most people never believed in the real possibility of going to the moon, and neither did I until I was in my twenties.
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.
My walk on the moon lasted three days. My walk with God will last forever.
Ever since I was nine years old and I watched Neil and Buzz walk on the moon, I have felt passionately that this is an interesting human adventure. This is one of the things we're doing that is really fundamentally important, as we leave our home planet, but also exciting.
We've gotta reinvest in space travel. We should've never left the moon.
Before this country came on the scene, for thousands of years people did things the same way. Within 200 years of the advent of this nation, men were walking on the moon, and I want us to recognize this is the kind of people that we are. We're creative with a lot of ingenuity and a lot of energy.
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.
From now on we live in a world where man has walked on the Moon. It's not a miracle; we just decided to go.
Here men from the planet Earth first set foot upon the Moon. July 1969 AD. We came in peace for all mankind.
