TThe US space program has a long history, which began in the 1950s. Women played a key role in this history as secretaries, human computers, wives of astronauts, astronauts, and many more. The spark that struck the idea for an American space program was Sputnik, the first Russian satellite in space. The US started with building nuclear weapons before they were ready for the space program, NASA. Once NASA was formed it was their goal to get humans in space, at first scientists thought it was the…

A hero can be classified by many things. A hero can be superman, a police officer, and even your mom, but what makes a hero? Is it someone who can fly or shoot laser beams from their eyes or someone who saves a baby from a burning building? I’ll admit some of these characteristics are far-fetched since I don’t know anyone who can fly or randomly saves babies on a normal day. All heroes, including super ones, all have something in common, they're admired for their courage or an outstanding thing…

The “zoo” by Edward Hoch and the “Ruum” by Arthur Porges share some similarities but also differentiate. The two stories had the same genre, science fiction. Science fiction is an enjoying, and fascinating read. Both, the “zoo” and the “Ruum” show excellent examples of this. First of all, the two stories similarly relate because both had a journey through space in one point of the story. The only differences had to be the purposes of journeying through space. In the “zoo,” the journey through…

The NASA Space program and the whole science division must stay afloat, and continue their exploration of space. The space program has been going on since 1959, and after only ten years of creation, for they had landed on Earth’s rotating moon. The Nasa Space program must continue and receive even more funding, and the opportunities created by the use and research of NASA resources, and the opposing point against NASA spending. The Nasa Space program has been a success for a long time, but…

“The ancient astronaut theory all started in 1968, when Swiss researcher and author Erich Von Daniken published a book known as Chariots of the Gods, which became an immediate bestseller.” Within the book he put his hypothesis that, “‘the technology and religions of many ancient civilizations were given to them by ancient astronauts who were welcomed as gods” (Ancient Astronaut Theory). In the book he gives evidence and reasons as to why he believes in this theory, but one thing is wrong with…

Mars is a one-way ticket. Scientific and technological challenges facing the mission to Mars have been identified as a result of strenuous scientific studies, including Architectural studies, external evaluations and trips to the International Space Station to simulate the mission to Mars. The challenges are mainly related to transportation, working in the space and keeping the crew healthy. Most of these issues are solvable and NASA has possible strategies in place for developing the ability of…

Dr. Who’s title sequence promises and successfully delivers an action packed science fiction TV series based on one man, with his time traveling spaceship, exploring the vast expanse of space and time. Imagine a universe where humans not only had the technology to explore beyond the vast expanse of space of our solar system, but also had the ability to time travel, and visit parallel universes. Imagine a spaceship with all these capabilities, but was in the appearance of… an English retro blue…

Neil Armstrong was the first man to walk on the moon. He was born in Wapakoneta, Ohio on August 5, 1930 (Nasa Administrator).

After a year, the U.S. Navy called him to active duty and he became a Navy pilot (Neil Armstrong Biography). In 1950 he was sent to the Korean War. (Neil Armstrong Biography). Neil was the youngest pilot aboard the USS Essex. Neil…

I have set off for the city this very morning. You’ll be happy to hear that I’ve finally left behind that little farm. I must be honest when I say that i’m a little less than merry about having to go. The farm just isn’t what it used to be, however, Mother and Father aren’t making the money they used to. So it’s my turn to make my way in the world. I plan to get a job in the city and send what I can back to the farm. It’s my first time on a train and I must admit how terribly nervous I am.…

Chemistry is in everyday life, including space travel. One might ask what is involved with space travel? A lot of times fuel for the rockets come to mind, but there is also the making of the rocket itself and how they breathe all the way up into space. A method they use for breathing in space is electrolysis. Other factors are the diet, the removal of waste, and the impact of space. In spacecraft fuel the two main categories are liquid and solid rockets, which have different combinations and…
