Space is so amazing. There are so many unexplored areas and places humans can barely comprehend. There are suns that rotate around other suns and gases that make beautiful nebulas. There are also many planets, comets, meteors, and other undiscovered objects floating throughout it. An article called “A Success in Space” by Cameron Keady tells its readers about the marvelous mission of Philae Lander and its mothership Rosetta.…
They talk about how they make the world and this country a better place. According to document 3, it states, “ NASA designed plan wings that saves the airline industry billions of dollars. In 2011, NASA invested over $108 million dollars in the state of Louisiana.” This shows that NASA does their best to make the community and the world a better place by saving citizens and businesses money to help them take care of the community. They claim that space exploration does not make a bad…
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration has so many technologies that benefit everyday life they had to create a magazine that shows the different technologies called NASA Spinoff. Many-redesigned space technologies are very beneficial to society. An example of this is NASA scientists helped develop a commercial kiln that turns plastic into useful petroleum products (Coleman et al 126). In addition, a system originally designed to transform the Martian atmosphere into rocket fuel is helping microbreweries recapture carbon dioxide (CO2) and carbonate their beer (Coleman et al 92).…
Space Exploration beyond the surface of the Earth is a great way to learn about the galaxy, and to find out if there are other forms of life on other planets. The satellites scientists use to monitor the weather, atmosphere, and even to track the movement of hurricanes and typhoons…
But many believe that this is a waste. A waste of resources, of money, and could be potentially damaging to the people sent up. However, they couldn’t be more wrong. To begin, I would like to bring to attention the fact that these missions have brought many technological advances to not only outer space, but to our everyday lives. According to…
NASA is on the brink of going to Mars, they’ve made the Hubble telescope to take pictures of space and all its glory, NASA has done so much for the research Americans have today about…
Introduction. The U.S. has a long tradition of space exploration, space operations, and commercial use of space. The United States current and future role in space is vital to our national security, science and technology, economy, educational institutes, and our national pride. U.S. initial space functions developed in 1958 include navigation, meteorology, communication, missile detection, space defense and reconnaissance. These core functions have not significantly changed from the Reagan-era to the current President Obama administration.…
By now, you've probably read part one and part two in our series of 30 shocking facts about NASA, and today we're here with part three! You might think you know everything about one of the world's most advanced space research facilities, but you have no idea. Number Fifteen: Stanley Kubrick.…
Today we are obsessed with space exploration. Long ago our ancestors have been amazed and inspired by the stars, but the roots of modern space tech started during the Cold War. In fact, the…
Space exploration is now an international effort, with the construction of an International Space Station, where both United States and Russian astronauts reside. It is a testament to the ingenuity and cooperation of mankind. Mankind will continue to strive forward and explore the vast cosmos surrounding us. The sacrifices made by those 18 men and women will not be forgotten, and their spirit of innovation will not be…
Space doesn’t have all the basic necessities of life, therefore NASA has to create ways to support their astronauts in space missions. By supporting their astronauts, they’re indirectly helping the humans back on Earth. NASA employees already know about the pollution their aircrafts emit. Engineers have been researching ways to go greener and they’ve enhanced solar and wind energy.…
After going through multiple arguments its hard to find an answer. For starters, they believe that going to space will be more beneficial than doing it back on Earth. This all makes sense till you remember that we still cannot land on the Moon or Mars. Another example is Paul D. Lowman Jr., he says, “the last few decades of space exploration and astronomy have shown that the universe is violent and dangerous,” which is a true statement. I mean there are black holes, asteroids, solar flairs, and so many more, but what can we do about them?…
Without space exploration there will not be enough people left to fight any wars, or find ways to stop the terrorist acts. This is a huge problem, yet people will not think…
With the emergence of a new space race in recent years, the topic of space exploration has come under fierce scrutiny. Combustible claims are being thrown into the forges of debate from both the opposing side and those that fervently follow the exploits of the various space agencies. While both sides of this debate have various logical points, they both tend to follow the same well-traveled track. The opposing side of this argument tends to charge forth asking, why should we spend money on such an expensive endeavor when we have problems to solve right here on earth? Whereas the side in defiant favor of space exploration routinely counters with an argument that space exploration is an undertaking of rich discovery that benefits all of humanity in the long-run.…
Modern Societies Doom without Space Exploration The world without NASA, also known as National Aeronautics and Space Administration, innovation would be a bleak world indeed. Think of all the modern technologies that you use every day without thinking twice about it. Now, imagine them gone! What would our modern society look like? Technologies like power tools, cell phones, modern computer processors, and microwaves are just some of the many contributions that NASA brought to us.…
