- “According to its designers, Apollo was ‘three nines’ reliable:
The odds of an astronaut’s survival were 0.999, or only one
chance in a thousand of being killed. [Astronaut William A.]
Anders, for one, didn’t believe it; the odds couldn’t possibly
be that good. Soon after he found out about the lunar mission
he took time to ponder his chances of coming back from Apollo
8, and he made a mental tabulation of risk and reward in an
effort to come to terms with what he was about to do. … If he
had two chances in three of coming back—and he figured the odds
were probably a good bit better than that—he was ready.” —Andrew
Chaikin, in A Man on the Moon, describing the chances of success
of Apollo 8, the first manned flight around the moon.

August 2007
- "For a long time it seemed to me that
life was about to begin - real life.
but there was always some obstacle
in the way, something to be gotten
through first, some unfinished
business, time still to be served,
a debt to be paid. at last it dawned
on me that these obstacles were my
life. this perspective has helped me
to see there is no way to happiness.
happiness is the way. so treasure
every moment you have and
remember that time waits for no one. Happiness is a journey,
not a destination". by Annika Hämäläinen.
