“There are two ways that technology is developed to benefit humanity: one is by war and the other is by space exploration (Coles 2016).” Since 1969, the United States has sent many astronauts and scientists into outer space. Almost half a century of exploration has helped in creating the abilities in medical and technology that are possessed today. Without the exploration of areas beyond our atmosphere, humanity would not have the luxuries and safe guards that it has today. Space exploration…

The idea of psychological paralysis in a world that exudes opportunity has been a common theme of modern literature, especially during economically booming times in America—like the pre-depression stock market era or the post-Cold War patriotic fervor. Indeed, many people liked to focus on the positives during these times; however, many authors felt the need to expose details of t-hose who could not advance themselves in these times through the forum of fictional novels. F. Scott Fitzgerald’s…

Air travel is nowhere near comfortable. A message from Dr. Florence Thomson written in response to an article published in The British Medical Journal in 1953 was, “most passengers are quite unable to rest in comfort in the position allowed, and sleep is quite impossible except in very short snatches” (996). In 2016, nothing changed for the better in this regard; CNN recently published an article about the disruptive passengers in flights and incidents of air rage in airplanes (McKirdy). What…

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) as we know it today is very different from what airline security used to be. To start we of course didn’t have the technology that we have access to now, from the body scanners to the advance metal detectors. To think of a time when it was in a “easy” to get through airport security is almost impossible in this day and age. Likewise, many people feel very differently on airport security, from feeling that they do too much and that they do too…

Apollo 13 was a space mission that some may have viewed as a failure; it was, in fact, the complete opposite. Space entry has improved immensely, with the efforts and struggles gained from previous missions. In addition, one of the astronauts of this mission, Jim Lovell, “believed it was a success. The astronauts and the Space Control Center were tested on their ability to work together and that is how Apollo 13 succeeded” (Anastasio 90). Apollo 13 has bettered the space program by allowing…

Some may know Amelia Earhart as the first female pilot to fly around the world and others may know her because of the mysterious way she disappeared, but most don’t know her story. She was more than an unsolved mystery. In the early 1900s there were more women obtaining college degrees but their career choices were limited. Most professions were dominated by men and most women including Amelia chose a career in social services, teaching and nursing. Amelia enjoyed helping others but she followed…

Abraham Lincoln: The Word Magician The purpose of this essay is to analyze the works of Abraham Lincoln. Often when presidents give speeches the general population neglects to remember them, and they disregard them. Abraham Lincoln, the sixteenth president of the United States, did not appear to have this issue. Some of his speeches are still pursued until this day. Not only are Lincolns speeches still being read and analyzed, but they are also being taught in learning environments. Much can be…

The Abstract:- Neil Alden Armstrong was an American astronaut who was the first astronaut to land on the moon and was also the first person to walk on the moon. Many people nowadays support the idea that Neil Alden Armstrong did not really land on the moon and walk on it, they think that it was not a real act, they think it was staged. These people think that he did not land on the moon because they think that back then, they did not have the modern technology that we have now. Some people…

The space shuttle in which the crew sat with the utmost anxiety consisted most importantly of the Orbiter vehicle, fundamentally considered by one Gaston (1991) as the brains and heart of the spaceship. Chyu & Cavin (1978) also described it that it contained pressurized crew compartment in which sat seven enthusiastic team members ready to ascent into the parts unknown.
