Dolph Lundgren: Outer Space Exploration

A.) Space exploration requires many difficult capabilities, and is not cut out for just any average Joe. It is difficult to choose or find someone who possesses traits that are needed or required for outer space travel. But if the world were to send someone as its ambassador into outer space, it should be Dolph Lundgren. Dolph Lundgren is already known for his intelligence and his powerful dominant roles in movies. Which is my reasoning for him being the one sent up to space as our ambassador. Dolph Lundgren already possesses many of the qualities and ambassador for outer space should have. He is athletic; he seems to maintain a positive mentality and a healthy outlook as well, which would be a necessity for outer space. With Dolph Lundgren
Which is why ability to adapt to different situations is of importance, versatility and flexibility are key. An individual as such should also possess both technical and interpersonal skills. Technical skills are an important qualification; it is a necessity to be able to competently carry out scientific and technical tasks. I believe interpersonal skills are a critically important qualification because; characteristics such as courage, tenacity, social adaptability, ability to cooperate, humility and tolerance of different cultures and lifestyles are necessary; especially if you are having to deal with intelligent life. Which is why I believe Dolph Lundgren would best represent Earth as its communicator with intelligent life being out there. Not only does he acquire many of the qualifications but also he is proven to be introverted and extroverted (referring back to him being an actor). He can be a leader but also lead. He knows how to tolerate isolation as well as be social when needed for interaction. With these qualifications, and his common knowledge with chemical engineering, nothing could go
Ellie Arroway (Jodie Foster) and her encounter with intelligent life during the movie, I am very neutral with how she communicated. My reasoning for this is, if Dr. Arroway indeed communicated with the intelligent life she definitely communicated interpersonally. If she did not, and the impact on her head actually did affect her, it was all in her mind; which means it was intrapersonal communication. I honestly believe it could go both ways, but for my argument I believe Dr. Arroway had an interpersonal supra-specific communication event with an alien from the star Vega. My main evidence for her communicating interpersonally is the audio recording. According to Arroway, she spent eighteen hours away from Earth. As far as the people on Earth are concerned, she never went anywhere. Towards the end of the movie it was proven that if intelligent life does not exist and Dr. Arroway's mission was just a hoax, how could the audio record for eighteen hours if she was only gone for a second. This is why I believe she had an interpersonal communication event, how could she possibly get so far in her mission with plenty of evidence as well as witnesses; if it was not indeed an interpersonal event with the alien from the star Vega. I believe that Dr. Arroway would have to be insane for her to "imagine" almost half the events that took place in the movie; which is why it could not have been intrapersonal communication. I highly doubt that Ellie got that far for
