Chairman of English Literature at the University of Texas at Austin, Benita Parry, expresses that the boisterous and belligerent Congo fully opposes the intrusive voyagers in her article “Conrad and Imperialism” (262).

The U.S. should go to space because almost all of the countries the U.S. has been competing with have access to space, and…
