Quotes by Jim Lovell

The fascination to go into space has existed for hundreds of years. But as we do things and they're successful, people get bored.

Earlier generations of stars in the galaxy could well have had planets. But really, there was only hydrogen and helium to work with, so they'd all be gas giants and not small, rocky planets.

Quotes by Jill Tarter

The thing about places like Trinidad and Jamaica is that they can be very musically insular. There isn't much space for kids making hip-hop, electronic music, or hybrid genres.

Quotes by Jillionaire
