that can aid us in understanding the world we live on. Sending man into space was a great adventure and the transmission and photographic technology available in the 60s and 70s when the space race was at its apex was not as robust which prevented us from seeing everything there was to see and learn in outer space or on other planets. That has changed considerably in the past 20 years. We can now send cameras into space that can transmit data that would have taken us years to analyze and…

There have been numerous missions into space since the beginning of the 20th century. With the constant evolution of technology, it has become much easier to further our understanding of the universe through the exploration of celestial structures. Particularly astronomers have increasingly become curious with the possibility of life on Mars albeit past or present life. The Mars Exploration Rover mission has been one of the biggest success stories with twin rovers, Spirt and Opportunity landing…

A book that I have enjoyed recently is The Martian by Andy Weir. The Martian starts with Mark Watney (Main Character) who is hit by a piece of a satellite antenna during a colossal sandstorm while trying to escape the Martian atmosphere. Watney’s captain tries to search for him but he is nowhere to be found and the crew presumes him dead. The next day he wakes up with part of the antenna lodged in his stomach. Over time NASA figures he is alive through satellite imaging. Mark eventually finds a…

Elon Musk’s SpaceX expedition to colonise Mars will undoubtedly change the world of space exploration forever, no longer will living on another planet be limited to science fiction. This leap forward in the survival of humans as a species comes with it a plethora of ethical issues that surround sending humans to Mars. The most obvious issue at this current point in time is human emigration, which is currently the only perceivable way to colonise Mars within the next 20 years. This poses one very…

billions of dollars on space exploration every year. New observations and information are vital to our society to understand life and possibility of life on other planets. Science is the true foundation for technology and the development of our economy. Most of the time, we rely on facts and knowledge, but sometimes, we must search outside the skyline and develop our understanding about the world surrounding us. Yes, we need to take risks and continue to move forward. Without space exploration,…

The Final Frontier Why is space called the final frontier? The reason why space should be called the final frontier is because past space there is nothing left to explore. I believe that space is the final frontier. Three main points that help with this are Galaxies what they are their shapes and what lies within them. Lifeforms off of earth what’s out there and are they friendly. Stars and planets what fate lies for our sun and other stars and the fate of planets in orbit around them. Galaxies…

The space race consisted of Russia and the United States of America, seeing who was more technologically advanced in weaponry and in the race to space. Although the Russians got a good start the U.S made the first man land on the moon which Russia still hate about us and is one of the most talked about things still in Russia. The cold war was where we would see who the top dog was and see who really was more advanced. The space race was nothing more than a thing for bragging rights, and to claim…
