The Spacex Rocket

Improved Essays
There are a lot of alien and UFO footage on YouTube. So it is always good to see a scary rocket that may be heading for Mars one day. New footage of a SpaceX rocket cruising down Main Street America may be intimidating to some YouTube viewers. Simply because it is footage of a real rocket that will go to space. And not a bizarre flying saucer that is blowing up volcanoes with laser beams. The footage of the SpaceX rocket was posted by USLaunchReport. There YouTube channel has a little more than 3,500 subscribers. But it’s hard to believe that they don’t have more. Maybe if they edited in a green eggplant headed alien riding a top of the SpaceX rocket, they would have more views and subscribers.

YouTube Video Breakdown
The footage of the SpaceX rocket is cut up to show different aspects of the rocket. The YouTube channel USLaunchReport dis a fairly good job. They noted that the footage was simply for rocket fans. The YouTube video shows the JCSAT14 or Booster #3, according to the video. It is pretty amazing to see a rocket that will end up on space. Not your everyday YouTube video. The USLaunchReport is also dedicated to bringing disabled U.S. Veterans to launches. Whether SpaceX or NASA. They are a nonprofit that has god intentions. They accept donations. Many may be applauding their efforts. It is too bad they don’t have more subscribers. Keep up the good work.

And the Dragon spacecraft, since they are both pretty amazing. China and Russia may even be jealous. The Falcon 9 is famous for its delivery of the Dragon in 2012. The Falcon 9 is a SpaceX project that was conceived with the help, and funding of NASA. It is over a million pounds and has an estimated 9,000 pound Mars payload capability. This could come in handy for the upcoming Mars missions in 2020. The Falcon 9 and Dragon spacecraft may be the first to put humans on the Red

    While the idea of living on Mars is exciting, it’s not necessarily ideal. Lisa Grossman’s article “SpaceX Mars Plan is Clever but Unconvincing” presents a stronger argument than Eric Betz’s article “The Falcon has Landed. Now SpaceX is Eyeing Mars” because overall, Grossman’s has more authority, is more logical, and uses better examples. 2 One of the main reasons Lisa Grossman’s argument is stronger is because overall, she has more credibility than Eric Betz. Although Betz is associate editor of Discover magazine and has written numerous articles on space and nature, Gossman has had years of experience in astronomy.…

    Space Race Impacts

    The Positive Impacts of The Space Race Following World War II, tensions between the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. rose dramatically. These tensions eventually caused the Cold War, a war that did not contain any actual combat between the two countries, but contained U.S. foreign involvement to contain communism, an arms race, and the space race (“Cold War History”). The space race is defined as the period of time in the 50s and 60s where the U.S. and Soviets competed technologically to be the first to get a man on the moon. This space age began on October 4, 1957, when the U.S.S.R. put the first artificial satellite, Sputnik, into orbit around the Earth. As the news hit the U.S. the next day, many Americans were worried that the US had become technologically…

    Space Race

    Amidst the shortcoming of the Cold War, the goal of the 1960’s was “to go above and beyond” in space exploration by successfully landing a man on the moon, which would serve as a gambit to conceivably lead the United States to victory. Before astronauts ventured beyond the earth, scientists had to assess the space environment and the hazards of human exploration. Soon after President John F. Kennedy assumed office in January of 1961, the space race was undoubtedly underway, and the United State’s primary focus was landing a man on the moon--hence, the Apollo Program. These Apollo Missions are significant in that America received technical credibility and hasted the end of the Cold War in our favor. Also, Carole Stott, a long-time astronomer…

    Though science has overcome many explorations that impact our world and society, it does include some limitations that are regulated. For example , money plays a huge role for budgeting all of the experiments that allow scientist to gather more information that could possibly be used for future inventions or solutions.
