Owning land in space seems absolutely amazing‚ but is it really that helpful? Owning land in space may not be the best idea in the world. Owning property in space may take away from continuing to do research in space‚ we need room on the planets to do this research‚ and people may make the wrong decision by buying property‚ they may not have enough money to do anything after and that would result in more poor people. Buying and owning land in space may take away from being able to do research. NASA

The space suit is not just another layer of clothing it is much more. It allows the astronauts to explore into space‚ go to moon‚ enter orbit‚ and renter earth safely. In the early stage of NASA‚ or National Aeronautics and Space Administration‚ they had the rocket and all other key elements‚ except a working and reliable space suit to allow astronauts in and out of the spacecraft. The requirements of NASA for the space suits wear protection from the astronauts from getting either hot or cold;

reality. I want to be a part of America’s Space Program. My interest in space and the space program began when I was a small child. Initially I was focused primarily on aircraft and space vehicles‚ especially the Saturn V rocket. My grandfather worked at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration from the day it was founded on October 1‚ 1958‚ until the space shuttle program.

The Columbia Space Shuttle disintegrated during its return to earth on February 1‚ 2003. The crew of seven astronauts died that day. As a result‚ the Columbia Accident Investigation Board (CAIB) was created to investigate the cause of the tragic accident. The exact cause of the of the accident was that the a piece of the foam insulating material from the external tank broke free and struck the leading edge of the shuttle’s wing which damaged the heat shielding panels. The impact allowed super-heated

Will the Space Elevator ever be a reality? Tim Engstrom The Cost of Space The cost of shipping payloads into space is currently thousands of dollars per kilogram[1]. Rockets are used for this job‚ subjecting the cargo to severe changeable g-forces‚ generating extreme pollution. The cost of launching a satellite by rocket is typically between $50 million and $400 million dollars[2]. Geosynchronous orbits at 35‚786 km are significantly more expensive to achieve than Low Earth orbits at less than
