So it’s my turn to make my way in the world. I plan to get a job in the city and send what I can back to the farm. It’s my first time on a train and I must admit how terribly nervous I am.…
Chemistry is in everyday life, including space travel. One might ask what is involved with space travel? A lot of times fuel for the rockets come to mind, but there is also the making of the rocket itself and how they breathe all the way up into space. A method they use for breathing in space is electrolysis. Other factors are the diet, the removal of waste, and the impact of space. In spacecraft fuel the two main categories are liquid and solid rockets, which have different combinations and…
Space exploration has been apart of United States history since the early 1960’s, and has over time created multiple technological innovations that have impacted society beneficially. These extraordinary innovations include advancements such as virtual reality allowing students to explore the surface of Mars, or our solar system in it’s entirety, and medical advancements that will allow the human life to live longer than ever before. The list of beneficial achievements continues to grow everyday…
As astronauts and researchers push beyond their previous limits, they encounter greater perils and expenditures; the mounting challenges are a major concern for future endeavors into space. Keeping proper maintenance and performing repairs becomes more arduous as people advance further in space (Spotts). Unexpected hindrances can often threaten the life of the humans who are stranded out of reach of assistance. Deducing solutions to impediments located light years away becomes nearly impossible…
Since the glory days of the American space program are long past, the role of the National Aeronautic and Space Administration should pivot — from space exploration to space regulation. In particular, private companies — not NASA — should undertake the exploration of space and NASA should oversee these ventures, much as another federal agency, the FAA, oversees private aviation. Private space companies would go through rigorous tests and monitoring period and at a certain point be 'cleared '…
about flight. There are four Exploration Missions taking place. One being DLRE (Diviner Lunar Radiometer Experiment), MER (Mars Exploration Rover- Opportunity), Mars Odyssey, and MRO (Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter). There are two International Space Station Missions taking place, ISS-RapidScat and OPALS (Optical Payload for Lasercomm Science). There is one Aeronautic Mission, which is Dawn. There are four Technology Missions, which are DRS (Disturbance…
1) (a)The part of The Martian i found really interesting was the ‘poop scene’.Mark was on mars with a limited supply of food and water so he has to think fast on how to survive on mars till NASA saves him. Luckily he studied botany and was good at it. Mark thought of using dirt from mars and getting his own waste to fertilize the dirt so he can grow plants, using tarps to cover the mechanical equipment, and using a machine to generate water using fire and filling the room with oxygen and water…
Individuals have been aboard the station since the first time it ventured into space. Since the ISS has been orbiting Earth for so long, NASA is bound to add more stations in hopes of getting more bodies into the barren area of space. The long term test that has been taking place is the effect space flight has on the human body. With lack of gravity Everything…
