After few years of alliance between The Soviet Union and The US. However, the peaceful was broken very soon when two superpowers got into a cold war which they were totally enemies in someways. Lots of issues occurred during such period, one of them was the Space Race. Vast number of innovations and high technology was coming out at the same time. Truly, those innovations did influence Canada in different fields during the period of Space Race. It influenced Canadian citizens’ lives a lot, simulating the cooperations with other counties and it also benefited the world a lot as well. Innovations could bring people a better life. Indeed, the high-tech products and new technology coming from the Space Race period did make the Canadian people’s …show more content…
Meanwhile, it creased the economical interactions with each other as well. For instance, the famous American institutions NASA decided to further cooperating with the Canada Space Agency. Neptec was one of the companies that NASA aimed to cooperate with. They desired that by the reason of Neptec had a plan to provide a shelter for human eventually base on the lunar surface. It would spend 10,000 dollars to put one pound of payload into Earth’s orbit which indeed improve the company’s stocks’ price from 17 dollars to 153 dollars. That was truly a tremendous exceeded . For another example , as the more successful Canadian aviation operated, the clients were coming from even further on the planet. European countries invested a huge program in Canada. L-3 MAPPS, a contract that aimed to train astronauts for the whole world. With 12.6 billion dollars investment for 10 divisions separated on the North America. For the part that were located in Canada, there was 1 million dollars earned for each stations annually directly giving to the government . Furthermore, there was another project called the RCA. It gathered 150 dozens of PhDs in Canada together to cooperate with the American company for more innovations designed. While the economically improvements can not be …show more content…
With the help of several Canadian ‘forces’, many gorgeous objects were made, including the famous aircraft Voyager. Voyager was a universe traveling machine that made by America facially, whereas most of its part were supported by Canadians. NASA came up with Voyagers to explore outer space world. Voyager 1 launched in 1977 and passed the Jupiter and Saturn during it non-coming back journey. Voyager 2 finally left the solar system and it visited Neptune and Pluto. For another aircraft which was even more famous, the Vikiy Mars lander. With the help of Neptec which solve the problem of mechanical arms, two different Vikiy finally landed on Mars in 1976 peacefully searching for the microbial life that contributed a lot to the modern Science in navigating. It is common to see a space shuttle launched in the movie that the aircraft could be reused for several times. It was actually another amazing inventions American gained the help from Canadians. After testing through several times in Canada, the space shuttle ultimately coming out with the capacity of being used 30 times and was ensured to be much safer than fleet flew a combined 134 times. Afterwards, there were few well-known space shuttles like ‘Challenger’ and ‘Endeavor’. According to the research information, the success of many American space missions were actually relied on a majority of
Along with the Confederation to begin the formation of Canada, the reciprocity debate of 1911 and NAFTA further impacted the development of Canada, because of its economic significance. The reciprocity debate of 1911 and NAFTA pronounced Canada economically through the flourishing of trade with other countries. The reciprocity agreement between Canada and the United States was instated to protect tariffs on goods traded between the two countries. Consequentially, the economy for Canada increased, with exports to the United States growing by 33%, post treaty.
History is the study of events that have occurred in the past. It is also the series of events which comes from various aspects, such as people, places, and objects. More so, it is highly significant to be aware of the past occurrences as it deeply influences the future. One of Canada’s triumph and legacy is the construction of the Canadian Pacific Railway. It fulfilled Canada’s First Prime Minister, Sir John A MacDonald’s national dream.
When the first space shuttle was launched into space, the world changed forever. New information was able to be discovered through exploration. The most famous space shuttle would probably be the Challenger. The Challenger was the first space -shuttle to attempt to take a normal civilian, Christa McAuliffe, into space, and also the first space shuttle to explode. Although the Challenger exploded, Christa McAuliffe was unknowingly made into a legend as the first attempted civilian in space; even though she never made it to space, she inspired many to work for their dreams.
Soon after the Cold War came to an end, the United States and the USSR both began military technological advancements. If the USSR could get missiles into space, they could set them off at anyone anywhere. In the interest of protecting America and possibly the rest of the world, the main objective for the Space Race was to protect us against missiles from the USSR military. These advancements led to a competition between the US and the USSR to see who would be the first to space. America and the USSR were two of the most powerful countries in the entire world at that point in time.
Since the 1960s, America has send many astronauts into outer space on different space shuttles to learn more about the world that is beyond the home planet Earth. Over the years, Americans’ pride and confidence in their space program had arisen as a result of several consecutive astronomical accomplishments. Nonetheless, accidents do take place sometimes. One of these times would be January 28th, 1986. On this day, the space shuttle Challenger has exploded 73 seconds succeeding its takeoff, claiming the life of seven members aboard, Michael Smith, Dick Scobee, Judith Resnik, Ronald McNair, Ellison Onizuka, Gregory Jarvis, and Sharon Christa McAuliffe.
In 1957, Sputnik 1 was launched into space. It was the world’s first artificial satellite, created by the Soviet Union, and was the object that began the Space Race. The launch of this satellite came as an unpleasant surprise to the United States (“The Space Race”). Less than a month later, the Soviet Union launched Sputnik 2, which carried a dog, Laika, in it (“6 Key Events of the Space Race”). A year later, in 1958, the United States retaliated by launching Explorer 1.
America choosing to put its funding towards missiles left Canada wondering where defence systems such as the Avro Arrow would fit in which resulted in its termination. Next, the Canadian government was shutting aircraft programs down.
How War and Peace has Defined Canada Many different themes have defined Canada: war and peace is one of those themes. World War I and World War II defined Canada as it grew into a powerful middle power. War created a strong economy and strengthened the women’s movement, however it strained the ties between French and English Canada. Canada’s peacekeeping missions helped define it as a strong peacekeeping force and built national pride.
What is new in the space travel world? Two article excerpts by author Cameron Keady “A Success in Space” and “America’s New Spacecraft” describe two space crafts with very different missions. The purpose of this essay is to explain the purpose of each mission and then argue which mission was the more successful. The first mission, as described in “A Success in Space,” used a small probe called the Philae lander, which had been dropped by Rosetta, a much larger craft that had been traveling 10 years prior to the drop of Philae.
The Space Shuttle was introduced after the Apollo mission was a success. But unlike the last one, the Shuttle was approved for operating in space without a specific mission and goal for the mission. The Shuttle project was politically and economically not strong. It was also sold as a partnership with the ESA to improve international and social relations as it would combine people from different countries, races and sex for the crew.
Post World War One was a time of great depression and re-establishment from the war. Even though the battle made Canada a reputable and respected country, they lost lives and money and now have to rebuild themselves. This period post war was the 1920s, which showed a revolution in women’s rights, the creation of innovative inventions, and economic growth; hence why it was referred to as “roaring.” To begin, several innovative Canadian inventions were discovered during this time. They drastically changed the lifestyle of Canadians and even impact us today.
The Columbia space shuttle was first built in April 12, 1981 and launched in April 14, 1983. The shuttle had completed 27 missions before failure. On the 28 it was disintegrated and killed all seven crew members. This spacecraft could launch like a space shuttle and landed like an airplane. This space shuttle was the only one that couldn’t land on the international space station.
How has Technology impacted U.S. History Economically and Socially since the Civil War? From 1970 to now, technology has affected America in an economically and socially way since the Civil War. Cellphones, Homeland Security, Mp3’s, Laptops, Space Shuttles, Cancer, Robots, ATM’s, Hybrid cars, Modern medical advances, Transnational Extremism, and many more contemporary technologies have influenced our lives on an everyday basis. Having these technological devices makes communication among the masses more sociable and obtainable.
The addition of the CanadArm was a massive contribution to NASA. The CanadArm cemented Canada's identity as an influential world power in the field of Aerospace Technology. This invention helped the International Space Station
It influenced Canadian citizens’ lives a lot, simulating the cooperations with other counties and it also benefited the world a lot as well. Innovations could bring people a better life. Indeed, the high-tech products and new technology coming from the Space Race period did make the Canadian people’s lives much more handy as well as it objectively increased the self-confident of being a
