Space exploration

The idea of space exploration is a trending topic with those who have a fascination with the “Final Frontier” (otherwise known as space). Some people believe that humanity should invest into programs that benefit the idea and efforts of space exploration to make it a reality. They believe that humanity's expansion into space would benefit mankind with all the knowledge and possible materials we would gain from its expansion ; they believe it’s well worth the investment and would return profit…

“Space exploration is a force of nature unto itself that no other force in society can rival.” (Greene) The famous astrophysicist and astronomer, Neil Degrasse Tyson, one said these powerful words. To paraphrase, Neil Degrasse Tyson meant is that space exploration is unlike anything else as it compels people to explore, explore the unknown and themselves. (Greene) Ever since I was little, I have always admired outer space with all of its stars and comets and wanted to learn more about it. Due to…

Why is space exploration important One year ago NASA made there own twin experiment. Scott Kelly was sent to the ISS while his identical twin brother stayed on Earth. About 340 days later Scott comes back to Earth, riding inside the snug soyuz coming back with him is Mikhail Korniyenko. While kelly-the-Earthbound wasn 't really doing anything besides collecting blood, urine, and saliva for research, NASA is also been taking samples from his brother. And by comparing the samples they 'll…

intensity of the moment began to build, the famous, everlasting words of Neil Armstrong would create an era of fevered space exploration and excitement that will be unparalleled in the century to come. As moon missions became an almost routine event through the Apollo missions, this fevered excitement began to decay until the Apollo missions were terminated and funding for space exploration became almost non-existent. It is now our generation's turn to rekindled the burning embers of our…

humans had set foot on a celestial body other than Earth, irrevocably transforming the scope of human existence and the latent considerations of space colonisation. One must consider a plethora of important decisions regarding space exploration. The ethical framework provides guidelines for what is fundamentally right and wrong regarding human resolves in space. Geoengineering, the large scale application of technology on a climate system raises many ethical issues to be addressed. Humans are…

coming from a binary black hole merger. This type of outer space phenomenon was observed for the first time in Earth’s history. This is just one reason out of many, as to why I am obsessed with space. There is so much that we do not know about the world that lies outside of our own. For this exact reason, I began my pursuit of knowledge. Questions filled my mind; what kind of research efforts are taking place now? How has our understanding of space changed over the years? Perhaps the best…

perplexed by outer space. We look at the sky and for the first time in our lives, we feel minuscule. In a world where humans are at the top of the hierarchy, space seems to swallow us entirely. Space exploration’s origin can be traced back to curiosity. Exploring space not only answers numerous questions we all share about the universe, it also grants us a deeper look into the world we inhabit. Try imagining a new color. Impossible, right? We have the same dilemma with imagining space. However,…

win the space race, and its impact on Modern Technology? The years 1945 to 1975 are the main area of focus in this investigation, as these years caused the build up to the space race. This investigation will compare the attitude and implementation approch between the two players –USA and USSR. Sources : 1. “Atlas of Space Exploration” written by Roger D. Launius and Andrew K. Johnston. The origin of this source is valuable, since Roger D Launis is a senior curator in the division of Space…

Space Exploration Speech In The Outsiders, Johnny, a member of the Greasers gang ran into a burning church to save some kids. After doing that, he ended up dying. After hearing this you might think that exploring is dangerous and a choice people will regret. Like in the Outsiders, many instances in space exploration has ended badly, causing deaths and losses of shuttles and large amounts of money. Over the last few decades, our country has been spending a lot of time and money in space…

The Space Race was a “competition” between the US and Soviets in space exploration and technology that lasted from 1957-1975. This race to space occurred during the midst of the Cold War and served as a way for the superior country to flex their muscles by reaching space faster and developing more advanced technologies. Space technologies could easily have military applications such as satellites and monitoring, and it was important for these countries to gain backing and pride in order to help…
