The story “Dark they were‚ and Golden-Eyed” by Ray Bradbury was a great story about people from Earth arriving on Mars to have a brighter future. There was also the audio play produced by Mcdonough. The two stories had the same ideas‚ but there were a few little differences. First of all‚ the difference between the plot is that in the beginning of the audio there is a brief summary about the story‚ but before the story instead of a summary‚ there is a background on why Bradbury chose to write a story

Space Exploration: Apollo Missions Space has always interested me and I had a great desire to be an astronomer one day. That has since changed‚ but space is still something I love studying about. Thus this topic was an easy choice. For the Apollo missions‚ it was originally created by NASA to sent a ship to the surface of the Moon and also have it return back to Earth. This was a huge step not only for mankind‚ but for the technology of America in the space race against the SSSR. Some of the questions

The NASA project New Horizon may build on its successes via Kuiper Belt flyby. The New Horizon team of researchers also plans to study MU69 in more depth. Could this be another secret alien space mission? New Horizon had recent success after it accomplished its Pluto flyby without crashing or deviating from its scheduled course. This has been impressive for NASA‚ given the distance from Earth to Pluto. However‚ there may be more at stake for the MU69 mission. Maybe NASA is looking to make contact

The sequence of events that led to the bad decision on the part of NASA’s base lie in economic‚ political‚ and scheduling backlog pressures. Competition from the European Space Agency put NASA under pressure to come up with a space mission‚ which would hopefully shed light on the ability of NASA to plan commercialized space departures. NASA also had to prove that its program should continue to be funded; another unforeseen pressure pushing NASA to schedule its record number of Space exploration trips

The Martian by Andy Weir is a newly published novel that has recently been adapted into a movie. I was introduced to this novel through Audible. It was one of my suggested reads and it sounded interesting. I’m really into science fiction and technology‚ which brought me to reading this book. The Martian takes place a majority of the time on Mars. The fourth planet from the sun doesn’t provide great hospitality as we see in this novel. Mark Watney‚ a botanist on a mission on Mars‚ is lost and left

Did you know that NASA has been using been using the government’s money to fund their research? Not to scare you but it is all in good reason! NASA is mostly known for building satellites and other spacecraft. NASA headquarters are in Washington D.C. Throughout the entire United States there are only 10 NASA centers including headquarters. NASA should continue being funded by the government because they find new things everyday‚ they are also finding places for us to live they are able to discover
