Space is a beautiful‚ but dangerous place‚ and has wonderful resources. If we do not go to space people will never see‚ examine‚ or even bring back the amazing things they can find. In order to see these things‚ we need space exploration. John F. Kennedy’s speech at the Aerospace Medical Center and Joan Vernikos’ article “Is Space Exploration Worth the Cost” both state space exploration expands our knowledge and creates wealth. This knowledge is important for many reasons. Some materials in space

Some people think that government should spend as much money as possible on developing space technology for the exploration of the moon and other planets. Others think that this money should be spent on solving the basic problems of society on Earth. There are different views about what government should spend more money on. Some people believe that government should spend as much money as possible on space exploration‚ while some other people believe that it’s better to spend this money on solving

Government Support A Manned Space Program at the Expense of the U.S. Tax Payers?1. The Man In Space ControversyShould the United States support a "Man In Space" program? Opinions here diverge‚ with opponents and proponents presenting strong arguments on both sides.The opponents like to point out how enormously expensive manned space operations are with every shuttle flight costing tax payers some $500‚000‚000 and with the anticipated bill for the international space station expected to be $35-40

Introduction A space suit is a garment worn to keep a human alive in the harsh environment of outer space‚ vacuum and temperature extremes. Space suits are often worn inside spacecraft as a safety precaution in case of loss of cabin pressure‚ and are necessary for extra-vehicular activity (EVA)‚ work done outside spacecraft. Space suits have been worn for such work in Earth orbit‚ on the surface of theMoon‚ and en route back to Earth from the Moon. Modern space suits augment the basic pressure garment

The space race was apart of the Cold War because some believed military installations would be developed in outer space; ultimately‚ impacting the result of the Cold War. Most importantly‚ many developments are direct results of space technologies. For example‚ LEDs‚ infrared ear thermometers‚ anti-icing systems‚ highway safety‚ video enchantments‚ firefighter gear‚ and much more (Jones‚ 2011). The moon landing itself did not provide resources‚ but the technology from the moon benefited the nation

The biggest rivalry between the two superpowers was the advancement in space technology. In 1952‚ the International Geophysical Year (IGY) was established in which scientists stated that in the time between July 1‚ 1957 and December 31‚ 1958‚ solar activity would be at a high point. The IGY made it so that both the US and the USSR became determined to be the first to reach space‚ and so the space race was born. During the space race‚ the USSR made many launches that were very advanced and superior

SPACE TRAVEL 1. Only three nations have successfully put people into space: the US‚ Russia and China. All have been government programmes‚ developed at great expense. Now‚ a new era is beginning in which private enterprise will take people 100km or more above the Earth. _________________ 2. In 2001‚ an American‚ Christ Tito‚ became the first space tourist.
