There are soccer programs in counties all over Georgia that need resources and funding in order to teach and foster the youth in its surrounding community. The Atlanta United Foundation (AUF) has a mission to expand the reach and accessibility of soccer for individuals across all counties in Georgia (Atlanta United Foundation, 2018). The problem that arises is which types of populations within the soccer communities in Georgia are most in need of financial assistance from an organization such…

Safety standards within a laboratory should be designed in a way that eliminates risks due to using potentially dangerous practices or procedures and dangerous materials. All laboratories are potentially dangerous places, and it is the actions and attitudes of those working there that determine their safety and that of their colleagues and ultimately of the whole community. The manual identifies the biological agents that are in use within the laboratory. It also points out the exposure…

The NASA website has archives of all missions ever performed by them. I chose some of the current missions such as Juno: mission to Jupiter, The International Space Station, And Curiosity mars rover. All Missions performed from NASA are costly, but all have very important reasons for those cost.The Juno spacecraft will for the first time peer below the dense cover of clouds to answer questions about the gas giant and the origins of our solar system. Juno's primary goal is to reveal the story of…

They can be made to help people remember to do basic tasks such as taking their medicine and remembering to brush their teeth to roaming mars to check for habitability. Robots can help astronauts do the dangerous tasks that they should not do. The purpose of the curiosity rover is to determine if mars is suitable for humans to live on and learn about the mars environment. The curiosity rover is the size of a small SUV and has a “host of scientific experiments to zap, analyze and take pictures of…

Since the first close-up picture of Mars was obtained in 1965, there have been significant endeavours undertaken to explore the ‘Red Planet’ (National Geographic, n.d.). In particular, a number of successful missions have taken place over the last two decades and provided valuable information about Mars. 1996 - Mars Global Surveyor In 1996, the Mars Global Surveyor mission and the Mars Pathfinder mission were launched. The Mars Global Surveyor arrived at Mars on September 12 1997, becoming the…

Given the incredible advancements in technology in the past decade alone, it’s only natural that mankind would look to the final frontier once again. While considering the question of Mars colonization, we, as a society must consider cost factors of commuting and terraforming. The question of funding arises, exposing an even bigger dilemma of international cooperation. The factors bolstering humans to colonize are balanced by ethical and economic tethers that keep us here on Earth. Before we…

are due to change. I believe this is because science is an important subject throughout the education system. As stated before, science is the base of the universe. Both educated and uneducated people can also be inclined, however, to not believe so much in science, even in our generation today. “People are prone to resist scientific claims when they clash with intuitive beliefs” (Gawande 3). Atul Gawande, from the article “The Mistrust of Science,” is trying to say that people who hold…

I’ve been on this ship with the Hesperis crew for two months now. We are somewhere in the middle of space between Earth and Venus. Travelling to Venus takes about 5 months, which means I still have three months of living (a very generous term for this situation in my opinion) in a 300 ft3 room with three other people [1, 2]. Trust me it’s not fun. It is difficult enough to live in a cramped living area by myself. The most common topic when discussing human space travel is the effects radiation…

Imagine a time where humans could travel half of the speed of light. Humans could go to mars in under 10 minutes! This time is not that far away. With the new research of antimatter, scientists have found many impressive tasks we can accomplish. Even though there are many positive aspects of antimatter, many people are scared of it. This article will discuss why antimatter is a good thing and why we should be using it more. Many of people might not know what antimatter is. Antimatter is…

How satellites have been used to help society? A satellite is a space body which has been created by colliding of two or more space objects (for ex. meteorites). There are two types of satellites: natural satellites (like moon, an earth’s satellite) and man-made (artificial), satellites launched to the orbit by people. Natural satellites A natural satellite is space body that orbits another space body bigger than itself. Natural satellites are not man-made satellites. They come from space…
