debris in space just like there is on earth? The answer is yes, debris in space causes many problems just like it does on earth. Even though debris on earth causes many problems, sometimes if you think about what space debris causes it can be worse. Are you thinking about why and how there is debris in space? First, astronauts sometimes will drop something out into space. In the text,”Space Junk” it says,”On March 11, 2001, astronaut James Voss had dropped a large vise while on a space walk.”…

Seashore south to Vero Beach, Florida’s Space Coast is sometimes characterized as a multigenerational destination, with incredible diversity from North to South. This diversity is evident through Space Coast’s designated towns: Cocoa Beach, Palm Bay, Melbourne, Port Canaveral, Melbourne Beaches, Titusville, and Viera. Its identity is drawn from the Kennedy Space Center, which was the public face of a NASA space program that concluded with the landing of the shuttle Atlantis in July of 2011. The…

“Screech” This is the recording of inside the rocket challenger before its explosion. Tragically, about 31 years ago in 1986 the rocket challenger was launched purposely into space into space, along with it a slimy growth hormone for plants that were undergoing experiments, also a bird was taken to study the effects of space on animals. Later on that exploration the rocket was faced with tragical technical difficulties that no one can explain, all that is known is something was heard to be…

Does Space Exploration Worth It? Space can wait, but our planet cannot. During the “Space Race”, space exploration was an important part of American History until 1965 when Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first to land on the Moon. Space exploration has captured a lot of interest and still does with the Mars Rover programs and others. It is frequently a subject that leads to a large controversy. Do humans need to move to another planet? Is space exploration for real vital for us? There…

Visions of space, time, and technological progress Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey relies on simple editing and sound to create an epic story of space, time, and technological progress. Kubrick sets the film in three different places: the African desert, inside a space station in orbit, and in space itself. When Dr. Heywood Floyd reaches the outpost station on the moon, Kubrick uses a wide angle lens to exploit the distortion of the lines. Such distortions make the station appear…

launched into the space by an empty shuttle covered with a piece of plastic tarp. The scene that fascinated and shocked me the most is how Hermes uses the explosion to decelerate for the rescue and retract, and Mark’s ironman move which finally brought him close enough for the retraction. Of course, there was a happy ending of the story. But it is a miracle that Mark be able to survive on the Mars by himself for more than 500 days. Never the less, the movie also revealed some advanced space…

mission, but there might be hope through the political process within Washington that NASA will gain what is needed to press forward (Leahy, B., 2006). Consequently, what would it take to continue our planetary exploration agenda? The values behind the space exploration program in the United States is undermined due to the funding required to maintain the program with the public sector. The cause of this relates to poor budgeting relating to congressional restrictions for the program. A unique…

The thought of sending the human species on an interplanetary space mission to colonize the moon is a concept that has captured the minds of scientists for generations. Space colonization has been viewed as a mere theme in science fiction for years; however, it may not remain a scientific fantasy for long. The idea of sending humans to the moon in an attempt to populate it may initially sound mindless and foolish, but after careful mental analysis, it’s become clear that populating the moon may…

~Space travel has been around for a long time. Since old times and there is no precise date in which the thought was begun. A space traveler, stranded, alone. His survival is all up to hardware and materials that are made for six individuals and in also his knowledge and his designing and what he has learned and remembered in his background knowledge of space travel and Mars. In the movie “The Martian,” the movie starts out with Mark Watney and his team of the Ares III crew mission to Mars is…
