Rival the moon landing speech

"Club tropicana, drinks are free,
Fun and sunshine - there’s enough for everyone.
All that’s missing is the sea,
But don’t worry, you can suntan!"

Was thinking about this the other day...

For whatever reason, you have been chosen as the man to do the solo flight to Mars.

Therefore it will be you who will be stepping out onto Martian soil. No matter where you tread, no human before you has stepped before.

You would be away from civilisation for about a year, upon arriving there everyone crowds round their tv sets watching for you to take your first steps.

Then it hits you, what do you say as you step upon the martian planet?

These words, like 'That's one small step for man...' will be immortalised forever more. Surely you will want to be remembered for saying something inteligent

Part of me wants to say something like
'With determination, there is nothing we cannot achieve' or something

But that seems to lack ingenuity

What would YOU say?

I would say

"All your martian base are belong to us"
 
"Thank god I can open the door - smells like a packet of dry roasted peanuts in here!"

"My god....It's full of stars"

"Damn...wish I'd gone before putting the suit on.."

"Join the navy they said...see the world they said...yeah right..."

Neil Armstrong's 'one small step...' was totally spontaneous and unscripted (both him and Buzz Aldrin said as much themselves), and given Buzz Aldrin's ability to punch the lights out of conspiracy theorists, I have no reason to dare doubt him. :D

Given the quality of some (maybe most) of the quotes in this thread, maybe it requires actually being there to say something inspirational. :p :D

Just, whatever you do, for god's sake don't send Goerge W Bush (or at least don't allow him anywhere near a microphone) :D
 
My bad, but it's nice to see even the corrector got it wrong. :p

Yes, it was Neil Armstrong that made the 'one small step...' statement, but the remaining references are correct and attributable to Buzz Aldrin.

I'll edit my post now just to make y'all happy. :D
