spends an exorbitant amount of money each year on space exploration, but the possible benefits outweigh the government…
as the Self Portrait by Gordon Bennet uses the words ‘I AM’ to convey message and create a question on the stereotypes of Aborigines. The main use of black and white colours to represent the different races and emphasis on the words ‘I am light, I am dark’ also creating negative and positive spaces. The use of symbols is used in Bennet’s work as the image of the boy represent himself in a western costume a cowboy, yet his nationality is part Aboriginal. The issues addressed in the artist’s work…
the unknown and with space exploration they can finally have it. Humans will also see that it produces wealth to the United States economy. Lastly they will see that we cannot send robots to do it for us. Space exploration is worth the cost because it expands our knowledge and helps us see more of the unknown. I say that because studying health conditions effects and improves our knowledge. NASA will also have to discover new planets because eventually the human race will have to move out…
worked at NASA during the Space Race. In 1961, Katherine Johnson worked as a “computer” in the segregated West Area Computers Division of Langley Aeronautical Research center in Hampton, VA with her colleagues, Mary Jackson, an aspiring engineer, and Dorothy Vaughn, the unofficial supervisor. After a successful Russian satellite was sent into space, the pressure to send Americans into space increased. Katherine’s supervisor, Vivian Mitchell, assigned her to Al Harrison’s Space Task Group.…

When people think about the topic of racism, many people only think about interracial discrimination and do not think about intraracial discrimination.

There are many space spinoffs that are used in Earth and are now used in space in many ways. These space spinoffs can be used in many ways to help astronauts in space. Some of these space spinoffs can include materials used for braces, bicyclist helmet, fire-resistant clothing, ski goggles and many more. These space spinoffs can economically and socially are important to astronauts in many ways. For example, the materials used in braces can help scientist create materials such as antennas for…
traditions of these universities, which allow them to remain centered on race. A result of these types of spaces is that PWIs become isolating environments of hegemonic power which sustain the structure of control and oppression. These ideologies become a part of university policies and practices (Gusa, 2010). She calls the dynamics of this hostile environment, White institutional presence (WIP). Her study, which is based on Critical Race Theory (CRT), states that although higher education…
Recently there has been a proposal that the government should cease funding to space exploration programs, and instead use the money for public education. Some people might argue that this is the way to go. However, I believe that if we honor this proposal we are limiting ourselves as a human race. First, we live in just a small speck of the Universe, and it is hard to believe that we are the only living creatures within that universe. Second, putting more money into the education system maybe…
