travel into outer space or even go the moon? Many people dream of space travel‚ but you can ’t just fly there in a jet plane. Jet engines work by using oxygen from the air to burn their fuel. And of course there is little or no oxygen in space depending on where you ’re headed. Fuel cannot burn without oxygen. The only kind of engine that will work in space is called a rocket engine. This is because it carries its own oxygen supply. This is also where the National Aeronautics and Space Administration

The Space Race Have you ever wondered what it’s like being in space. You would probably have fun maybe you also want to land on the moon too. Well in 1958 the NASA (space program) was created. The U.S.A against the U.S.S.R (soviet union) for the space race or technical advance was created. This space race was created in the Cold War in about 1957 and the Cold War was started in 1947 and lasted o 1991. Who could get to the moon fastest? Who could build better materials than the other team?

brought on the “Space Race.” There’s little clarity on where the race would end‚ but it’s generally regarded that the race was one to land on the moon. Although it was a product of war‚ the space race was a great thing. It pushed both sides to rapidly develop space technology and exploration to new limits at every turn. Every time Russia won a milestone‚ America pushed harder‚ eventually winning the race to land on the moon. Without the space race‚ the world’s ability to explore space would be light

The Hubble Space Telescope is a space telescope that was carried into orbit by a Space Shuttle in 1990 and remains in operation. A aperture telescope in low Earth orbit‚ Hubble’s four main instruments observe in the near ultraviolet‚ visible‚ and near infrared. The telescope is named after the astronomer Edwin Hubble. Hubble’s orbit outside the distortion of Earth’s atmosphere allows it to take extremely high-resolution images with almost no background light. Hubble’s Deep Field has recorded some

India’s Space Programme Starting with a modest beginning in 1963 primarily to carry out sounding rocket experiments in space science‚ the Indian Space Research Organization SRO) has focused its attention on using space technology for carrying out major identified national tasks on a totally self-reliant basis. Self-reliance‚ accomplished with national applications of space technology is the main objectives of the Indian Space programme. Main thrust areas are: Satellite communications for various

International Space Station The International Space Station (ISS) is a habitable artificial satellite in low Earth orbit. It speeds around the earth from hundreds of miles up. “On January 29‚ 1998‚ fifteen countries signed the intergovernmental agreements (IGA) establishing the framework for cooperation among the partners on the design‚ development‚ operation and utilization of the Space Station.” (“Partner Signs ISS”).

Ethics and Space Exploration Christen Boyd PHI107: Philosophy of Human Conduct Prof. Carol Parker October 14‚ 2010 Ethics and Space Exploration In recent years‚ there has been a rise in debate over government spending on space exploration. It is hard to say that the deck is stacked in either way. There is much validity in the arguments from both sides of the gun. In this debate‚ I believe‚ the sides are both coming from the perspective of utilitarian ethics. Basically‚ it is a disagreement

This space satellite was named after the great Indian astronomer and mathematician of the 5th century‚ Aryabhatta. It was launched from a soviet cosmodrome with the help of a Soviet rocket. It marked India’s giant leap and made her the eleventh country to join the space club. The second satellite ‘Bhaskara’ was launched on June 7‚ 1979. It

Thus the Space Race was essentially a competition between the United States and the USSR to see who could make the most progression in space exploration to impress the world. This Space Race however‚ did cost both the United States and the Soviet Union a good deal of money‚ but the cost of the Space Race was worth the outcome and benefits. Perhaps one of the most significant motivations of the Space Race was to ultimately beat the Soviet Union (“McNamara”)
