Space Quotes

Space means something different at every scale.

These space quotes cover a surprising range — screenwriters complaining about crowded cafe tables, a musician resisting being boxed into one sonic style, and an old joke about the outer-space program's tax-dollar value. For more on the physical world, see our Earth quotes.

Man must at all costs overcome the Earth's gravity and have, in reserve, the space at least of the Solar System.

Quotes by Konstantin Tsiolkovsky

I do not remember how it got into my head to make the first calculations related to rocket. It seems to me the first seeds were planted by famous fantaseour, J. Verne.

Quotes by Konstantin Tsiolkovsky

From the moment of using rocket devices, a great new era will begin in astronomy: the epoch of the more intensive study of the firmament.

Quotes by Konstantin Tsiolkovsky

Mankind will not forever remain on Earth but, in the pursuit of light and space, will first timidly emerge from the bounds of the atmosphere and then advance until he has conquered the whole of circumsolar space.

Quotes by Konstantin Tsiolkovsky

Quotes by Kirsten Vangsness

Each black hole spins on its axis like the Earth spins. That spin creates two vortexes of twisting space, somewhat like vortexes in a bathtub or a whirlpool.

Quotes by Kip Thorne

We have to have a combination of general relativity that describes the warping of space and time, and quantum physics, which describes the uncertainties in that warping and how they change.

Quotes by Kip Thorne

A big misconception is that a black hole is made of matter that has just been compacted to a very small size. That's not true. A black hole is made from warped space and time.

Quotes by Kip Thorne

A black hole really is an object with very rich structure, just like Earth has a rich structure of mountains, valleys, oceans, and so forth. Its warped space whirls around the central singularity like air in a tornado.

Quotes by Kip Thorne

When gravitational waves reach the earth, the waves stretch and squeeze space. This is a tiny stretch and squeeze. Far too small to detect with ordinary human senses.

Quotes by Kip Thorne

In a novel, you have space to develop a character or a scene. You don't have that luxury in a 700-800-word picture book.

Quotes by Kirby Larson

I do know what my family has done for me, but they do need to give me some space to let me be myself. There would be some things I would handle differently.

Quotes by Kim Wilde

I like clubs, I like sweat, I like people right up in my space.

Quotes by Kim Shattuck

Children are pretty darn smart and capable if we give them space and structure to grow.

Quotes by Kim Brooks

Your dressing area should be your private space.

Quotes by Kim Cattrall

Quotes by Kim Alexis
