The sending of men to the moon with a safe return to Earth showed the world that America was a notable contender in the Space Race. According to Khan Academy, “The “space race” was a Cold War competition between the United States and the Soviet Union to develop aerospace capabilities, including artificial satellites, unmanned space probes, and human spaceflight.” The United States government formed the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, or NASA, in 1958 to be the primary research agency to experiment with and analyze space and the exploration of it. Although the Soviet Union had some early on successes in the Space Race, the Americans did not give up. In May of 1961, Alan Shepard became the first American pilot in space.
By answering the above questions I hope to give my audience a better insight to space exploration by making a convincing case for the argument. In addition, I also hope to answer all the research questions by critically analyzing my primary and secondary sources in such a way that the results are in harmony with my thesis statement about how spending taxpayer money is crucial for space
The National Space Policy has undergone changes throughout its new crefied in the Vision for Space Exploration, which led to the creation of the Constellation program. NASA developed the Constellation Program which was a manned spaceflight program, with goals to complete the ISS (International Space Station) and return to the moon no later that 2020. The Constellation program included the Orion crew module, the Altai lunar lander, and Ares 1 and 5 rockets. In August 2006 a new National Space Policy was released which the National Security Council stated, “we need to reflect the fact that space has become an even more important component of U.S. Economic security, National security, and homeland security (Bush Sets Defense as Priority, 2017).”
It just depends on whether someone looks up or down. CONGRESS In regard to the importance of space exploration previously stated and proved by historical evidence, Congress has passed legislation in regard to the expansion and creation of space exploration programs such as NASA and space exploration
With this knowledge science fiction has gone rampant putting their own respective spins on the situations along with scientists coming up with their own respective theories on wormholes as well. Despite what type of crazy ideas science fiction has directed the average
The third reason why the governments should not support researchers to discover the space is that the results of exploration is unsecured. Because the space is huge and mysterious, it is difficult to get reliable information. Also, space exploration need a long of time to get some information about space; consequently, their results will be slow. In addition, space explorers spend a long time to prepare their research sometimes last for many years so they lose a lot of time, effort and money.
Colonizing Mars Mars is often voted by people as being the most likely place for humans to colonize after we are done with Earth. This is often said because of Mars’s similar size to Earth and similar climate. However, Mars might not be the best place to go when we decide to make our first extra-terrestrial home. Whether you believe we should colonize another planet or not, evidence proves that moving to Venus is both logical and cost effective. There is much more promise in visiting Venus and much more we can learn.
NASA should focus more on space exploration rather than climate change because there is an array of scientific evidence that proves that climate change is not as prominent of an issue as we are portraying it to be. Many politicians also believe and debate that it is more beneficial to focus on space exploration rather than climate change because we will be wasting money focusing on something that is really of minimal importance. Overall, the majority of presidential candidates are in favor of focusing more on space exploration rather than climate change. However, there is a stronger support from the republicans. In response to interviewer, Steve Inskeep, on the legitimacy of climate change, Ted Cruz said “ You and I are both old enough to remember 30, 40 years ago, when, at the time, we were being told by liberal politicians and some scientists that the problem was global cooling” (Inskeep 2015).
Why isn’t this Generation talking more about Space Travel and exploration. This is our time. We still feel like it is a waste of time and money but, at the rate of which we are killing our own planet, I feel like my children won’t be able to live there full live on our planet, Earth. I propose that we wake up from the fact we are able to reach higher, go beyond the Earth. We have made huge scientific progress throughout the past 15 years.
Asteroid Studies go way back in the timeline, through small businesses and through someone who found a asteroid inside a crater on Earth. Now, present day, other large businesses, like NASA, are trying look into asteroid studies, since they have the latest technology. NASA shouldn’t fund into asteroids because they won’t have enough money since they already got $59 million dollars off their budget. They also are trying to find a way to get asteroids away from Earth when we should be studying them not trying to get them away from Earth. And Nasa has already been studying asteroids without the permission since that would just destroy small businesses that are trying to study into asteroids.
Many people think that space exploration is a waste of money. They think that people shouldn’t be looking to the stars and that space exploration is unnecessary. Then there is the people who think otherwise. People from NASA, or people who just in general love space ,want to fund for the cause. They think that space can help the economy improve and that there is more to space than stars and a bunch of planets.
I. Introduction a. Now let me tell you one thing, are you satisfied with how our world is. If we were to stop all research and development of new technologies, would that sit well with you? I am not ok with this because I for see a vast and great future for our nation and this future is set to begin in the stars. Our nation the United States needs to boost its efforts in the exploration of outer space and as well as be the front runner in this pursuit for new knowledge. b.
All the forms of communication we use are things in the world that humans live in right now internet for example isnt just something humans couldn 't just get rid of right now people it in schools and other vitals like banks and the government use these things and if it wasn 't for satellites we would not have the world we do now. Research is vital in exploring space but in everyday lives. Space rockets use a tons of money in multiple things like in launch sequences and fueling because rocket fuel is very
As much as we may want to know what lies beyond our earth, there are bigger issues that our government must address. More people are affected by poverty than by space. The government must focus their resources and efforts to one problem at a time, and with a third of the UK living under the ‘poverty line’ more money should be spent helping the poor, rather than on space research. If the government doesn 't handle the economic crisis with care, we will all end up poor – but to treat the situation properly requires more funding.
Space exploration have brought many benefits to our society. It helped answered “questions about our place in the Universe and history of our solar system” (Wiles). Explorations that we made also made us wonder about the Universe that we did not explore. The challenges we faced in space exploration, such as Moon Landing and sending probes to our solar system became an expansion of our technology, knowledge, and connections among
