Text Quotes
It’s much easier for me to sleep in space than it is back home. We sleep in a cabin, and you can float inside  (Kevin A Ford Quotes) I think if I had to choose, I would rather have gravity instead of zero gravity. It’s fun for a while, but I’d rather live on Earth  (Kevin A Ford Quotes) A lot of scientists on Earth think of things that they could do in zero g. Things like the way metals cure, for example, and the way fluids react in space can tell us a lot about some of the unknowns we have on Earth  (Kevin A Ford Quotes) I took a Russian class at Notre Dame. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would fly someday in a Russian spacecraft with two cosmonauts, speaking only Russian  (Kevin A Ford Quotes) Space is dark but, of course, when we’re on the sun side of the Earth, we’re in full illumination and we have all the reflection of the Earth below us, beautiful blue Earth and we’re in daylight. Only on the back side, opposite side of the sun, it seems like night to us, too  (Kevin A Ford Quotes) I made about fifty-four dollars a week and spent it on two flying lessons every week at the age of sixteen and was able to get a license then pretty early and knew that that’s what I wanted to do, some kind of a career in aviation. I did know about space flight, but at that point, it was still pretty far out there.  (Kevin A Ford Quotes) I think someday, out in space, perhaps, some people might be able to grow some of their own food or hopefully on another planet.  (Kevin A Ford Quotes) It’s much easier for me to sleep in space than it is back home. We sleep in a cabin, and you can float inside.  (Kevin A Ford Quotes) Life as an astronaut in space is a very interesting one. There are things we all take for granted here on earth, like gravity, that can make things a bit challenging. One of the fun things about getting here is the zero gravity and floating around. But it also makes things very difficult.  (Kevin A Ford Quotes) Space station is, it really is one of the more, if not the most, impressive technological achievement of the modern day, not only in what we’ve accomplished engineering-wise but what we’ve accomplished on this international scale, because anybody will tell you that half the challenge is making it all work.  (Kevin A Ford Quotes) The ability of the humans to not only function in space but be very functional when they arrive at their destination, those are the kinds of things we’re learning from the science. Fuel transfer technologies and all the things we can learn about the space environment are all valuable to us for pressing on out.  (Kevin A Ford Quotes) We spend our spare time taking care of little things. I can watch a little bit of college and professional football if I want to... Our favorite pastime is trying to take pictures of our hometowns from space.  (Kevin A Ford Quotes)
