Human Space Exploration: A Need or A Want?, The belief that Humans need to focus on space is represented as a negative belief because it distracts humans’ focus from Earth to outer space. The author believes that human's “First - only - priority is to focus on our own planet”, highlighting that humans should focus on planet Earth before focusing on space. This is evident in the metaphor, “Space exploration is a black hole, sucking attention away from what matters” The author describes space to be
The English author Douglas Adams’ The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy series presents a fantastic universe which symbolically can be taken as a parody of our postmodern age, a period of non-stop change and no-boundries in which nothing has a concrete stable meaning. The series displays human being that seems lost in a digital world where philosophical search for the meaning of life and spiritual enlightenment become futile and frivolous under the shadow of the rapid change of technologies. Thus
Drinks A majority of your drink intake should be soley water. However, teas, milk, and all natural juices are great too. I am an avid seltzer drinker and I like to flavor it with fresh citrus fruits like oranges, lemons, and limes. There are many great teas that taste great. I like to drink green tea and chai tea. However be very careful to watch out for teas with added sugars, just stick to tea bags and loose tea. As for milk, if you do not want to drink regular milk, coconut milk and almond milk

From this, a narrative of details revealing the composition of how parts make up

To what extent are we honest about our place in the universe? I have a question for the previous question. Does it really matter where we are physically? We know we live on Earth, which is in the Milky Way Galaxy only a small portion of the large expanse that we know is our universe. The truth of it is that it can go on forever and ever and we wouldn’t know. We are so insignificant, it’s hard to comprehend, to the larger picture that the universe is, but even though we are miniscule grains of

this beautiful world, we are constantly surrounded by space. William H. Whyte mentions several basic factors in his article and film, The Social Life of Small Urban Spaces, which influence the usage of space in a particular area. These aspects include: sittable space, street, sun, food, water, trees, and triangulation. However, not all areas of space can always encompass each component, especially restaurants.
