Exploration of Mars

1. How does the force of the Earth’s gravity 250 miles above the surface of the Earth compare to the force of gravity at the surface of the Earth? Is this surprising? The force of the Earth’s gravity 250 miles above has less pressure and less gravity because gravity pulls everything to the center of the Earth, so the farther the distance; the less gravity. The force of the Earth’s gravity 250 miles above the surface has about 90 percent of what the force of gravity is on Earth’s surface.…

The general argument made by author Laurie Vasquez in her work, Could Human Actually Live on Mars? is quite simply that people have the ability to make it to the moon, they just need the materials, technology, and people to help them achieve that goal. More specifically, Vasquez argues that NASA has the technology to achieve the dream of landing on Mars. They mainly have to learn how to overcome the challenges of going to the red planet. She writes that, “‘We’ve had the technology since we went…

NASA’s budget was $19.5 billion. This number being only about 0.489% of the total US budget at $4 trillion. However, the American public on average, believes NASA’s budget has a much larger share of the federal budget than it actually does. 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…

when the Musk colony dimmed it fit to send someone to the red planet, a planet that use to be known as Earth. Around the year 2025 when the first musk ship landed on Mars, so many people called them mad, the media said they were never going to survive; Little did they know that Mr Musk, the madman that spearheaded this exploration had his own survival plan, not just for him but for the 250 crew members with him. Now centuries later, that madness; that single act of innovation stemming from…

ahead of us in Mars Forty years ago a man landed on the moon surface. Today it is our duty as a country to continue the steps Neil Armstrong started. A manned-mission to Mars not only will confirm the US superiority, it is our destiny as humans to prosper; however many challenges are upon us, including political, financial and technological problems. The first map of Mars was drawn over 500 years ago and people have sent more than 50 robots to observe the Red Planet. Mars once had an…

space exploration for our society? it says “ We will of course, be learning more about our universe and developing all sorts of technologies for living in extraterrestrial environments.” We could advance in technology and could get it so no one will be hungry or homeless or thirsty. You should also keep funding NASA because it may keep a kid how was going to be a juvenile delinquent but because you keep on founding they got it so that they got to Mars and that kid was so into studying Mars that…

But Cruz's first meetings with NASA workers in a Space committee gathering showed a more aggressive part about him. Cruz and Sen. Cory Gardner made clear quite that for them, the main mission of NASA's space exploration, not any of their other scientific pursuits, like monitoring climate change from space and certain things that other countries may have not discovered. It will be more difficult to put people in space if sea levels rise states Senator Bill Nelson of (Florida), of which is one of…

Considering the relatively delayed entry of China and India into space explorations alongside their ambitious plans and schedules, this is an easy parallel to draw. Much in the same way that both Russia and the United States were looking to assert their dominance in the Cold War, both India and China are trying now to establish themselves as global players in space exploration. However, as critical difference is found in the geopolitical…

Space Exploration Humans always had a nature of curiosity. That’s what drove Ferdinand Magellan and Juan Sebastián Elcano to circumnavigate the globe. They discovered new lands and crossed new oceans. If they weren’t allowed to go on the voyage, then our history would be too recent. Humans would still be exploring and naming lands in later centuries, if such an event were to happen. This applies to space exploration. With the head start space agencies has executed, the future generations will…

available, but before mankind takes another leap into the future. It must first take a step back and evaluate the ramifications of space travel and exploration. These include economic, political, and scientific consequences. In regards to NASA, the United States’ space program, how much money should be allocated for contributions to space exploration? Many would argue that tax payer money should not be spent putting people into space (Source H), for both ethical and financial reasons. In Source…
