In the mid 1960s‚ we figured out that all of the outer planets will align (Bell‚ Interview). The Jet Propulsion Lab (this is the lab that creates all of the rockets) knew that the planets aligning was good because it only happens about 175 years in 1980 for the year (Bell‚ Interview)

Less guns‚ Less crime? “‘If a preschool child hits another child with a rock‚ the solution is not for every child to have a rock!”’(NICHOLS) More gun control is needed with the advances of fire arms. Getting a gun is far too easy in America. A person can obtain a firearm the day they walk into a gun store and hands over the money. The absence of more gun control is helping these crimes occur more often‚ this is allowing citizens to obtain guns easily. “Right now‚ State officials‚ local authorities

A rocket is a machine that develops thrust by the rapid expulsion of matter. The major components of a chemical rocket assembly are a rocket motor or engine‚ propellant consisting of fuel and an oxidizer‚ a frame to hold the components‚ control systems and a cargo such as a satellite. A rocket differs from other engines in that it carries its fuel and oxidizer internally‚ therefore it will burn in the vacuum of space as well as within the Earth’s atmosphere. The cargo is commonly referred to as the
