Very much.
-
I admire people who overcome great obstacles and make great contributions to humanity. Some are astronauts and some are really humble celebrities who are not impressed with themselves - Like Paul Newman who died this morning and left such a legacy of generosity.
-
Hell yes!
-
Honestly I don't admire either. I do recall a time in the 70's though when Astronauts were to be looked up to as pioneers into an unknown frontier. As for Hollywood, it could burn to the ground tomorrow and we would be none the worse for it's "loss".
-
Yes, a bit. I don't care for those celebrities at all.
-
If the conspiracy I read about recently on the internet is true, is there a difference?
-
In general, yes, as what they do puts their lives at risk while Hollywood celebrities only risk embarrassment at the hands of Joan Rivers and Mr. Blackwell.
-
You bet I do. They put their life on the line for science, and probably wouldnt want it any other way!
-
I also admire surgeons, doctors, teachers, Martin Luther King, Mother Theresa I can go on and on. But I do admire a few Hollywood celebrities like Bono:):) I admire the strong willed:):) I kind of admire myself:)
-
Well, I used to until Lisa Nowak... LOL I guess I admire the person for what they do in life rather than a profession.
-
absolutely. the shuttle is still an experimental aricraft, so they are all still test pilots. they are very brave in that they put their lives on the line for the education and good of society. i won't speak down on celebrities though, because many of them use their money to do a lot of good.
-
Anyone who achieves anything I am happy for them doesnt matter who they are :)
-
YES I DO!! I find astronauts quite sexy... lol. True story!
-
Definitly. I think the astronauts should get paid as much as the celebrities also. They deserve it.
-
I admire astronauts the most when I am studying things of the cosmos. I admire celebrities the most when they entertain me with their acting, singing, dancing, writing or other skills. I do believe most everyone is good at something, and I am able to admire them for it.
-
Not really.
-
Yes I do. They have had to go through much more than movie stars. Much more education for the most part thus more knowledge.
-
Absolutely. I have had the opportunity to meet several of the older astronauts (Gene Cernan, Charlie Duke, Walt Cunningham and Dick Gordon--just to name a few) and I feel that these men are true American heroes who risked their lives to further the knowledge of mankind. Name ONE actor or actress who has done anything comparable to this. Jim
