Vision for Space Exploration

The Apollo Missions are a very important part of the space explorations project that the United States of America underwent. The missions consisted of tests and planning that ultimately landed men upon the moon. This was a great feat for mankind and allowed us to further investigate space technology and transform it into what we have today so that we might be able to further discover the world around us (Nasa). These missions allowed for us to understand the moon and it’s relationship to the…

Life, until now is known to be found only on earth. Although, life has travelled to space but it cannot survive there without the necessary induced conditions. Only lichen and mosses have survived the vacuum of space and UV radiations yet. Imagine if you could survive the space without these conditions! Tardigrade (Water Bear), a water dwelling, 8 legged, segmented micro-animal has survived the space without any protection. They are prevalent in mosses and lichen and have a lifespan of a year.…

from the launch control. You can't believe after all these years it's finally happening, everyone has been waiting for it to happen. “5...4...3...2...” The last second before the rocket launches “1.” In that split second you thought the future of space travel could change, but now you see the rocket explode into a fiery blaze. On september 1st, 2016 a SpaceX test rocket named Falcon 9 exploded from a miscalculation with the oxygen. The rocket exploded on the Cape Canaveral Air Force station…

Thank you for choosing my school to select three artifacts for a time capsule that will be taken to Mars on your next space mission. I have chose three artifacts that would be significant to the future generation. These three artifacts consist of, a CD, a book, and a phone. I think these items would be significant because they were such monumental changes in our society today. The first artifact I chose is the CD, “Straight to DVD 2”. CD’s are disks that hold data, the data on the CD can be…

On October 15, 1997 the Cassini-Huygens was launched from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station’s Space Launch Complex 40 in Florida using a U.S. Air Force Titan IVB/Centaur rocket. The complete launcher was made of a two-stage Titan IV booster rocket, two strap-on solid rocket motors, the Centaur upper stage, and a payload enclosure. The entire launcher…

One Small Step Leads to Many Big Reactions The moon landing of the space mission Apollo 11 in 1969 was one of humanity’s most prodigious achievements. This event affected every single person in the world, from the children watching on their black and white televisions, imagining a galactic future, to the presidents watching on secure channels, postponing an atomic war. Four media outlets handled the event in different ways. The Times of London, in an un-credited news article, focuses on the…

For my major paper I would like to discuss the ethnographic component of Lucian’s account of the moon people in his True Histories. This would cover both how Lucian’s describes these people and the significance of what he is describing. I would begin by discussing the influence of other authors in his description of the moon people. His account is similar to those of historical authors and their descriptions of non-Greeks and their unusual customs. I would use this section to explore any…

The Hubble Space Telescope has been working hard for many years to capture images of the farthest reaches of our universe. These machine show us the farthest we've ever been able to see into the deepest recesses of the universe. It reveals thousands of galaxies that are billions of light-years away. As time marches on, scientists will continue to learn more and more about our using universe advanced scientific technology to create tools to explore the depths of space. For example, thanks to the…

their fins. To do that, find the ideal size to cut them. It is probably from six-to-nine inches long and one-to-three inches tall. When the fin size was created, draw it out three times, exactly the same each time, on the cardboard, using as compact space as possible. Next, by using the cardboard-cutting scissors, cut out the fins and remove them from the card board. After the fins were cut out, students then proceeded to glue or tape them onto their bottle. To do this, wrap the piece of string…

build space vehicles? What is the first thing that comes to your mind? Most people would say space shuttles, but the truth of the matter is, there is more to space vehicles than just the space shuttles. In fact there are a total of eight different types of space vehicle classifications. Let’s take a look at the eight different types and why we should continue to develop space vehicles a little closer. For the last 3 years of my military career, I worked in the U.S. Army’s only space…
