National Aeronautics and Space administration today. NASA the wondrous space program of the world‚ forming in the brink of the terrible “Cold War”‚ NASA fought with the Soviets with the creation of the Apollo program‚ Neil Armstrong putting our American colors on the grey moon; America had outlasted the Soviets in so called “Space Race”. But why? Because of the great curiosity that mankind had in the Universe. Curiosity is a powerful force that drove NASA past the Space Race and never let it stop. After

NASA should not funded a large amount of money. There are more important events that is occurring that we need to solve or discover than space. A decent amount could be reserve for NASA because it could increase our knowledge about space and help invent new equipment. NASA could help resolve the problems like climate change. NASA did help invent equipments that some individuals use everyday such as weather satellites‚ fire gear‚ etc. NASA has pushed science to new heights and increased ways to help

NASA [National Aeronautics and Space Administration] obtains less than one percent of the American government spendings. The government of the United States can decrease funds for other things that we don’t particularly need and exchange that with NASA. American’s government should fund more money to NASA. If the American government sends less money to the things that people don’t need. According to “marvininlindsay.typepad.com” the government funds more money on transportation than exploring space

Jerry DeGroot‚ History professor at the University of St. Andrews‚ said "Funding NASA siphons money from other worthwhile‚ terrestrial programs such as helping the nation’s poor." and that "The time has come to pull the plug on meaningless gestures in space.". So in this paper‚ I will see if space exploration‚ NASA in particular‚ should be publicly funded.

NASA Crane The Purpose of the NASA Crane project was to use the engineering design process to build a crane that was able to lift as much weight as possible. The need was to build a crane that could lift heavy objects out of a crater on the moon. The heavy objects must be lifted 6 inches from the ground. Secondly we had to create a design that could be tested. The design was drawn out on graph paper and was to scale. Thirdly we had to build the design out of the materials that were given. The design

NASA wanted to create a lightweight space shuttle in the 1970’s‚ but they needed a test vehicle in those times‚ computer technology was not as good‚ and advanced like now so they had no way to see how the shuttle would react to heat‚ and stress according to Nasa’s website.The Challenger broke apart 73 seconds while in liftoff on January 28‚ 1986 which killed the 7 astronauts on board‚ and the reason for the incident was because of a booster failure.On April 4th‚ 1983‚ and saw the first spacewalk

Article Review NASA/JPL‚ “NASA rover finds old streambed on martian surface”. Astronomy. September‚ 2012. The article I’m writing about is about the NASA Curiosity Rover and how it’s doing on its trip to mars. The reason that NASA has sent this rover is to find potential signs of life on the surface of mars. They are trying to find evidence that there once has been enough resources to have any kind of life on mars. NASA has sent a rover to Mars called the Curiosity Rover. It is on its way

NASA spin-off technologies have had great impact on many people around the world‚ whether it be artificial limbs‚ cochlear implants‚ solar energy‚ GPS or water purifiers. But one particular invention has directly affected me and more than 25‚000 other people in the United States. NASA has also helped SpeedoUSA develop the LZR Racer‚ the world’s fastest swimsuit in 2007 and 2008. In fact‚ during the Beijing Olympics‚ every gold medal was a swimmer wearing a LZR Racer. (Gerbis‚ 2009) The suit helped

The third of three NASA tragedies occurred in February of 2003. During re-entry after two week mission‚ the Columbia shuttle broke apart. A thorough investigation linked the cause to a section of the silica ceramic insulation foam that lined the underbelly of the spacecraft. The entire crew was killed. Lost or damaged insulation tiles have been a reoccurring issue that never escalated into life threatening status until now. During the investigation‚ NASA officials noticed that a chunk of foam
