After assembly complete, when we have a larger crew on orbit, a more complex vehicle, more laboratories and more robot arms, maybe we'll have room for specialists. But right now we don't.
John L. Phillips

For future exploration, when we have the objective of going to the Moon, it is important to have several possibilities to go there, and within this framework of cooperation to have our own access to orbit around the Moon.
Alain-Fournier

I always try to be alert to the potential for repetition, for a decaying orbit with regard to my use of technique, etc.
Jeff Vandermeer

I am proud to find, from two astronomical observations, that Chapel Hill lies right in the orbit of Jupiter and his satellites, and that the period of his revolution is about twelve years.
William Hooper

I don't go along with going to Moon first to build a launch pad to go to Mars. We should go to Mars from Earth orbit. We have already been to the Moon; we've already practiced.
Wally Schirra

It definitely helps to have been through the arm training flow before and to have used the arm on orbit, and it also gives me the confidence to know that our training facilities are really good, that when you get up there, you feel like you've been there.
Linda M. Godwin

It seems to me, thinking of it, that there must be some universal plan which set in motion the orbiting of the electrons about the nucleus and the slower, more majestic orbit of the galaxies about one another to the very edge of space.
Clifford D. Simak

Looking down at the Earth, you started to pick up a sense of speed much more than I had noticed on orbit.
Robert Crippen

My work at MIT had focused on what we could build in space once we had inexpensive space transportation and industrial facilities in orbit. And this led to various sorts of work in space development.
K. Eric Drexler

NASA wanted to assure its ability to examine the spacecraft in orbit for signs of damage.
Marc Garneau

NASA will send up a big sun shade that will be in orbit between the earth and sun and deflect 2 or 3 percent of the sunshine back into space. It would be cheaper than the international space station.
James Lovelock

Now, I've never flown in space; but the folks who have say that on landing day, you know, you've just spent maybe a week and a half, sometimes two weeks in orbit and you're used to the things happening slowly in space.
Duane G. Carey

Remember, I am not trying to orbit the earth. It is a simple elevator ride for 20 minutes.
Brian Walker

The cause of these global changes is fundamentally due to the Sun and its effect on the Earth as it moves about in its orbit. Not from man-made activities.
William W. Vaughan

The first two missions have some test objectives, some new capabilities that we're going to try to develop on orbit to possibly be used on later flights.
Mark Kelly

The orbit of human vision has widened and art has annexed fresh territories that were formerly denied to it.
Max Bill

Then during the mission itself, I used the space shuttle's robot arm to release a satellite into orbit.
Sally Ride

Then if your movie clicks with real audiences, you'll be sucked into some sort of Hollywood orbit. It's a devil of a place where the only religion that really counts is box office.
Yahoo Serious

Things are going very smoothly. As expected, there are some minor glitches, and the eight minutes that it took us to get to orbit, we trained months and months for, and didn't have to use any of that preparation, other than being aware and ready.
Laurel Clark

We launch when we're kind of in the same orbit that they are in terms of being matched up in inclination in space, and we're just in a little different altitude.
