NASA’s Space Program Worthwhile to Continue Funding? The world has anxiously followed the Mars arrival of the space vessel Curiosity. Recently‚ on October 31‚ 2012‚ Curiosity ’s analysis of Martian soil found it to be eerily similar to that of Hawaii. This mission‚ like so many before it‚ exemplifies NASA’s commitment to acquiring knowledge about the worlds beyond ours. NASA‚ though struggling with budget cuts and the end of the shuttle mission‚ is still making great progress with its current space

Space – a new frontier for the expansion of human intellect. To explore the universe and bring back to earth its many wonders is an idea that has been engrained into the very nature of humanity itself. Although it seems a simple idea‚ to travel into space is an enormous endeavor. It requires a virtually limitless budget and an ethical perspective that deems space exploration admissible. To many‚ the exploration of the last frontier would be an invaluable human accomplishment. To many others‚ however

The only way to find out would to be to continue the complicated research of space that has been going on since the space race. However space exploration is surrounded with controversy which may possibly affect the growth of the knowledge of space. The prior benefits and consequences of space exploration now affect the present and future of space exploration. Many

men were sent into space‚ and this sparked a new government agency‚ called NASA. Space was a new frontier‚ and virtually everyone was interested in exploring it. Over the years‚ the interest in space exploration has weakened‚ and NASA was almost terminated from existence‚ although there have been many advancements in it over that time. Space exploration should continue because it could help solve many problems on Earth‚ such as overpopulation and lack of resources. Exploration of the final frontier

With said funding‚ we will be able to advance our knowledge and understand of the universe‚ protect the Earth from potential meteor threats‚ and continue to advance our species potential for existence. Space exploration is vital in gaining knowledge of our environment‚ world‚ and the universe in which we live. In addition‚ we should also

If you looked at a satellite image of the United States from space you can see that we are tiny. Extremely tiny. So why do humans make it essential that we should explore the space even though our impact would barely make a dent in the unfathomable universe. In the article Why Bother to Explore the Universe‚ David Helfand argues and persuades his readers that through astronomy and space exploration we‚ as humans‚ have continued to be as curious and imaginative as ever.
