Basic Research Is What I Am Doing

We Should Remember That Science Exists Only Because There Are People, And Its Concepts Exist Only In The Minds Of Men. Behind These Concepts Lies The Reality Which Is Being Revealed To Us, But Only By The Grace Of God.

If We Were To Start Today On An Organized And Well-supported Space Program I Believe A Practical Passenger Rocket Can Be Built And Tested Within Ten Years.

Our Sun Is One Of A 100 Billion Stars In Our Galaxy. Our Galaxy Is One Of Billions Of Galaxies Populating The Universe. It Would Be The Height Of Presumption To Think That We Are The Only Living Thing In That Enormous Immensity.

It Is In Scientific Honesty That I Endorse The Presentation Of Alternative Theories For The Origin Of The Universe, Life And Man In The Science Classroom. It Would Be An Error To Overlook The Possibility That The Universe Was Planned Rather Than Happening By Chance.

I Believe That The Time Has Arrived For Medical Investigation Of The Problems Of Manned Rocket Flight, For It Will Not Be The Engineering Problems But Rather The Limits Of The Human Frame That Will Make The Final Decision As To Whether Manned Space Flight Will Eventually Become A Reality.
