My five years of service with the Civil Air Patrol has provided me a taste of cadet life…

My parents bought the telescope I yearned for and helped me look at the moon on clear nights. Together we watched shuttle launches on television and read about expeditions online. A few years later, they took me to see a shuttle launch at Cape Canaveral. We arrived just before launch because the visitor’s center…

Nations after nations, every day, every year, celebrates its achievements in space exploration. However, it is now the time to question how meaningful these blasts are. This essay aims to explain why it is questionable. First, until all urgent and important matters of the globe have been solved, money bumped on space exploration is meaningless. It is not a common sense at all to invest millions of dollars researching and producing foods for astronauts (for space exploration purpose), while…

Without the newly developed methods and designs to reach space with the Saturn payload, the Apollo program won't be a success. In order to lift the massive payload required to reach the moon, the Saturn V rocket required millions pound of thrust. The First stage comprised of five-engine cluster for the 7.5 million pounds of thrust using liquid oxygen and kerosene fuel.

The Death of Adolf Hitler This controversy is about the death of Adolph Hitler, and how it might have been a fake death. There are a couple of different theories to discover. The possibility that it was Hitler's stand-in that was found dead in the bunker in Germany caused this controversy! So, the people who thought that he faked his death strongly assumed that he went to Barcelona Spain, and then went to South America. Others think he went to Antarctica!

The following test is egocentrism. This test was first performed by Jean Piaget in which he placed to scenes on either side of a mountain. You then ask the child what they see on their side of the mountain then ask them to look at the other side. They go back and you ask what is on the other side. I did not have the time or resources to make a mountain so I used my laptop and an iPad. “Their” side had an ocean scene and “my” side had an outer space scene. Luckily, both of my children were able…

In theory, colonizing Mars is a cool concept but until we get the whole living in space thing down, it will be anything but a pleasant experience. If the severe weather, radiation or general lack of oxygen doesn't kill you, humans in space have a whole other threat to worry about. Stress. STRESS IS A UNIVERSAL THREAT TO HUMANS The first humans on Mars will get bragging rights for life, but unfortunately, that life won't last very long. Stress, not laser wielding Maritains, will wreak havoc on…
