Reading Response Recently I’ve just completed reading The Martian by Andy Weir after watching the movie. The book illustrates the story of an astronaut and botanist, Mark Watney, on Mars. Overall, the book somehow connects a lot to me. Being stranded on Mars, Watney has to be perseverant and to get through some hardships. However, it is more crucial for him to be adventurous. Watney, the only human being who left on Mars, risking his life for making water from “hydrazine” to maintain…

conversation in real time. The counter argument is they can go to mars and help keep Earth from overpopulating. The other reason people need to go to mars is because, Earth can get oversized and Mars can help people get to see a new place. Mars can help people get to learn new experience and how mars looks like. The reason many people don’t want to go to mars is because mars doesn’t have the oxygen that humans from Earth needs. Humans from Earth need certain oxygen to live so you don’t die. In…

Everyone at some point has dreamed of outer space, and usually at the forefront of those dreams is exploring distant alien planets in advanced starships and making new discoveries that change the way we think about the universe around us. You may think that this is something of a far off dream or pure science fiction but it’s not. Thanks to the discovery of the first exoplanet in 1995 scientists are doing just that every day.. They may not have starships and be zooming around the universe at…

Despite Apollo 13 being considered a failed mission due to the fact that they did not land on the moon, it may have actually helped NASA out and proved to themselves that they can handle things in high pressure situations. The mission was able to get some exploration done by taking pictures of the moon, but the only encounters that took place were problems such as an oxygen tank explosion. What make this mission historically significant is that it boosted US morale because they were able to…

people as well as the stars. Fascinatingly, they had a lot of knowledge of the science of stars by just observing and had predictions that we can now prove are in some aspects correct through proven research. The Indians knew about the meteorites, sun, moon, and the five planets by tracing the movements of the celestial objects with the only resource they had, their naked eye. This is astounding because they had no telescopes or material to help them come up with such scholarly conclusions or…

This means there is the potential for life to exist here. However, this water is very minimal compared to previous levels of water found on Mars. A study done by Geronimo Villanueva and Michael Mumma of NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center reveals that Mars used to have at minimum seven times as much water as it does today with there being enough water to…
