watch an American citizen take their first steps on Mars. "NASA aims to extend human presence deeper into the solar system and to the surface of Mars," states a well-educated member of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration ("NASA's Journey to Mars: Pioneering Next Steps in Space Exploration" [4]). However, would colonizing The Red Planet be a threat to America's economy and to the lives of brave astronauts? With no prior experience on Mars, there is no possible way to predict what…

In the book “The life of super earth”, Dimitar Sasselov, one of the expert astronomer discusses some of the major findings on investigations of the universe. Much of the research relates to investigations in the laboratory relating to synthetic biology and how it can lead to better understanding of alien life in other planets outside the solar system. The most interesting idea is Sasselov’s claim that super-earths have better chances of harboring life than earth-sized planets. Personally, I have…

worried about absolute and total destruction of the human race by space war? No? Well you should. Currently the United States has in effect a bill that bans cooperation between NASA and the CNSA (Chinese National Space Association). It is the legacy of a conservative lawmaker by the name of Frank Wolf (Fernholz 15). His bill cuts off any funding for work with China, recently the CNSA requested help from NASA for a new joint space station, however due this bill known as the Wolf amendment NASA…

The organization, short for National Aeronautics and Space Administration, got to work immediately, and the early highlights as mentioned earlier included the first satellite Explorer I, and Alan Shepard being the first American in space (NASA Created). With the creation of NASA this officially started the space race between the United States and the Soviet Union, one thing was for sure though, NASA had some tricks up its sleeve and…

『Prologue: Beginning of the End』 In the year of December 2045, A new planet discovered by NASA and JAXA; the planet was so dark, even a single light can't espy and reflected so they decided to enter the unknown planet to discover any life on it. Five days later, Team ϴ-Wings from NASA and Team Σ-Tsubasa form JAXA didn't return from the unknown planet, some said that there were some dimensional breakdown phenomenon during time to time, causing them to travel into a parallel universe, others said…

A drone is any unmanned aircraft that one can program or they can be autonomous. These robots often use GPS technology to be more accurate when preforming a task. Additionally, in most states an individual must receive a certificate of authorization from the FAA before using drones for any purpose other than recreational. The Federal Government uses drones to make citizens lives safer and easier by monitoring wild fires, supporting law enforcement, and training the military. However, the demand…

As technology advances through the 21st century, the world of aerospace is becoming increasingly important. There are many reasons why this region has such significance to our society, with one of them being that aerospace power is essential in protecting our national security. To start, I would like to clear up two definitions: National Security and Aerospace Power. National Security is agreed upon, to some extent, as “ the protection of a nation from attack or other danger by holding…

The National Aeronautics and Space Association (NASA) is a fundamental part of America. From the space race to technology that saves lives, NASA has heavily impacted United States (U.S.) history. Therefore, making cuts to its already small percentage of the budget is ludicrous. NASA is worth much more than space exploration. Those that argue “The United States need to focus on Earth” clearly haven’t done their research. NASA uses their discoveries from space to support Earthly needs. The funding…

tests. One test, known as NIH.R4, looked at hypertension, or high blood pressure. This test discovered that blood vessels do not contract well in space. It also helped us see the role of calcium in Hypertension because more calcium comes off the bones while in space (Feldman). The Soviet Union was the United States’ direct competitor throughout the space race. NASA claims that the Soviets were “Basing their experiments on American biomedical research” (Gray). The Soviets had more early success…

When cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin became the first person in space giving the red a huge victory against the United States. But Alan Shepard actually could have beaten the soviet had they decided not to test the launch missile more. Just like how the United States could have launched a missile before the Soviet Union whose October 1957 launch shocked America and set the race in motion. But the two losses didn’t stop America who put the first man on the moon in1969. Shortly after Gagarins success,…
