In zero gravity, [[w:space adaptation syndomre]|SAS]] aside, it's possible to perform amazing physical feats. Ironically, it's more like being there as a mind.

He had steeled himself just a little for the Jump through hyper-space, a phenomenon one did not experience in simple interplanetary trips. The Jump remained, and would probably remain forever, the only practical method of travelling between the stars. Travel through ordinary space could proceed at no rate more rapid than that of ordinary light (a bit of scientific knowledge that belonged among the items known since the forgotten dawn of human history), and that would have meant years of travel between even the nearest of inhabited systems. Through hyper-space, that unimaginable region that was neither space nor time, matter nor energy, something nor nothing, one could traverse the length of the Galaxy in the interval between two neighboring instants of time.

I don't believe in flying saucers... The energy requirements of interstellar travel are so great that it is inconceivable to me that any creatures piloting their ships across the vast depths of space would do so only in order to play games with us over a period of decades.

When stuck in outer space, moonwalk home. I can dance as well as any hitchhiker in the galaxy, and you can 42 off if you don’t believe me.

Sex in space is more than a Big Bang.

Fortunately, when you spend a lot of time in space, you learn how to shit in a bag.

But sooner or later people will be able to buy a ride into space.

Love is the space in which one finds the freedom to fly.

Earth is in space, too, so really sex in space isn't anything new.

Sex in space is not about going somewhere else to have sex; it's ultimately about expanding beyond our immediate neighborhood, into a Universe to which we belong.

If we had a starship, we could move near a black hole, stay there for a half hour and then come out. Outside hundreds of years could have gone. So we could... come away from the black hole into the far future easily.

[T]he problem of interstellar travel has been reduced to... transporting a von Neumann machine to another stellar system. This can be done even with present-day rocket technology.

...se va a licitar un sistema de vuelos espaciales, mediante el cual desde una plataforma que quizá se instale en la provincia de Córdoba. Esas naves espaciales, con todas las seguridades habidas y por haber, van a salir de la atmósfera, se van a remontar a la estratósfera, y desde ahí elegir el lugar a donde quieran ir. De tal forma, que en una hora y media podremos estar desde Argentina en Japón, Corea o en cualquier parte del mundo. Y por supuesto, los vuelos hacia otros planetas, el día que se detecte, de que en otros planetas también hay vida

Thanks to the tour with the UEFA Cup I finally flew on a helicopter.
