Stage 1 features the development of a new crew exploration vehicle (CEV)... Stages 2 and 3 of the proposed Exploration Architecture will require heavy-lift launch capability... We believe these requirements can best be met, at least initially, by means of designs that utilize existing Space Shuttle components...)

("The human imperative to explore and settle new lands will be satisfied, by others if not by us. Humans will explore the Moon, Mars, and beyond. It's simply a matter of which humans, when, what values they will hold, and what languages they will speak, what cultures they will spread. What the United States gains from a robust program of human space exploration is the opportunity to carry the principles and values of western philosophy and culture along on the absolutely inevitable outward migration of humanity into the solar system and, eventually, beyond.")

We may have people living on the moons of Jupiter and other planets. We may have people making habitats on asteroids. ...I don't know the date -- but I know that humans will colonize the solar system and one day go beyond.")
