Persuasive Essay On Nasa

Stars, mankind has been staring up at them for thousands of years. Over those many years dreams and mythology have been created to explain those lights in the heavens. Mankind grew sick of just staring, and decided to find ways to discover more about it. Eventually over hundreds of years mankind has, been able to send men to the moon, launch satellites into space, and even send rovers to Mars. These feats of science would have been unimaginable hundreds of years ago, and to others that heard of it was only science fiction. With all these accomplishments, it seems humanity has a bright future of further discovery, but a recent development has surfaced regarding Space Exploration. That debate regards the future of space Exploration, and whether or not It should be continued through NASA or private companies. Various opinions have come from all over the scientific and astronomy concerned world. Others side that NASA should continue its lead into the future, because of its contributions to discovery and the scientific world. Others blame that NASA’s lack of progress in previous projects has lead to a disbelief of Nasa, and a turn to Private industries due to their smaller budgets and recent success. Even some see a balanced future of NASA working with private companies, and even healthy competition that will allow a faster progress into the future. Mankind has always had the desire to reach the unreachable, and it cannot go forward

The topic of Mars has long been of interest to astronomers and science fiction enthusiast alike. The premise of another planet supporting life excites people like no other. In 2004, The United States National Aeronautics and Space Administration, or NASA, began preliminary science experiments and instrument proposals for the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) and a robotic space probe mission to Mars. After long testing and development stages, the mission birthed a rover, Curiosity, which was launched in November 2011 and subsequently landed August 6th 2012. As we speak Curiosity is collecting invaluable data for our understanding of mars including: habitability, climate and geology, and possibly setting up a manned mission to mars in the

Do you think animal testing is wrong why and why not? I think it is good because we'd all rather an animal die than have a human being that has a family. I also think it is necessary because most animals share human DNA with us so it's easier to test products and other things on them. According to History.com Laika, the dog was launched into outer space on November 3rd, 1957. This shows that we used an actual animal first instead of a human. +7

For those of you still upset over Pluto's demotion, there may be a new ninth planet. Or at least NASA scientists believe it exists -- and they want you to help find it.

It was predicted by Bill Kaysing that the likihood of sending a man to the moon and back were low because of the micro meters and radiation that may cause harm a human. Not even two years later, President J. F. Kennedy gave a speech reporting that he will designate the country with plenty of resources to land a person on the moon before the decade was out. Two years shy of a decade later, the Apollo 11 took off to the moon with three people aboard, who were Buzz Aldrin, Neil Armstrong, and Michael Collins. In July of 1969, these were the first people to ever land on the moon and walk on the moon. Many people have taken their own opinion about what actually happened. Persuasive evidence was discovered and the people have doubted that America

The Space Race was a 20th century competition between two Cold War rivals, the United States of America and the Soviet Union. This competition was held between 1955 until 1972 and enabled these two rivals to advance their ability of spaceflight and their exploration out of the Earth’s reach. The competition covered several ways in taking human life out of Earth’s orbit and to successfully bring them back home in the process. The Space Race brought about several controversial topics relating to how the USSR copied the methods conducted by the United States, how the United States retaliated against the USSR and the man landing was purposely staged or not. These factors contribute to a large extent on how the space race was won. The Space Race

On May 25, 1961, President John F. Kennedy set a national a national goal to complete a crewed lunar landing on the Moon and return them to Earth safely. He made a special joint session of Congress on May 25, 1961 and said, “I believe this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to Earth.” This soon became the primary objective of Apollo 11. On July 16, 1969, two brave men, by the names of Neil Armstrong (1930-2012) and “Buzz Aldrin” (1930-), traveled to a previously unexplored terrain. Apollo 11 was an extremely dangerous journey. During the trip to the moon, the United States encountered many hardships and complications. It took 42 failed attempts prior to the

If Earth was in trouble and we needed to find a new home, where would we go? Mars One is planning to send two crews of people over to Mars to start a new nation, a new colony. Mars One is a program that isn’t apart of NASA and they are funding a expedition to Mars so they can start a civilization, because they believe that we will run out of resources and room on Earth. The opposing sides are trying to establish whether the trip is a suicide mission or a possible new home for us all. Our claim about Mars One is that we agree and that it is a good idea to go and have that amazing experience and that if you think that it is a good idea and you are on board with it you should put your say in Mars One.

The majority of people know that a large asteroid was accountable for the annihilation of roughly seventy percent of all life on Earth sixty-five million years ago, which seems so long ago that it is not really a concern for life now; however, there are an estimated one million asteroids that are orbiting the Sun right now and we can only account for one percent of them. So, that means that there are about nine hundred and ninety thousand other asteroids that we do not know much about that can potentially at any point in time strike Earth. Is this enough to show that the potential threat is in fact real or is there no reason to be alarmed? Scientists fear that if we do not raise awareness on this issue, we the human race may eventually meet a similar demise that dinosaurs and other life met millions of years ago. The main reason asteroid strikes are a problem is unawareness about what they are as well as when and where they are going to strike and the best

The moon landing was an incredible feat of man. The first mission to the moon was on July 16, 1969. Neil Armstrong, Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin, and Michael Collins were the first three astronauts to go onto the moon. Some people think that the moon landing was faked. However, there is no possible way that the moon landing could have been faked.

     Since the beginning of time there have always been those that have opposed exploration of uncharted lands. This statement holds truth also for the NASA program since the beginning when President John F. Kennedy's vision was to ‘land a man on the moon by the end of the decade.' Instead of all the opposition of NASA and questions such as, “Why should we go to space?” I believe people should ask themselves, “Why shouldn’t we go to space?” Christopher Columbus didn’t have to sail over the Atlantic Ocean and discover America, he could have stayed in Europe but then we may not be living in the United States of America. Christopher Columbus and many others human didn’t stop but continued to explore because they are

Texas is losing their fight against same-sex couples here on Earth so now, they look to reignite the battle up in space. Texas Congressman Louie Gohmert announced to the world on Wednesday that Mars is no place for gay astronauts and NASA may be responsible for the end of days.

It was our first trip to Disney World, and we were visiting what I thought, was the scariest ride in the world. I thought that certain ride was scary, because ever since I was five I would always throw up on the roller coasters, or even car rides. I hated roller coasters ever since I threw up. I thought to myself, ‘This is Disney World we’re talking about, I have to go on this ride, I need this. I promised myself I would go on every single ride here. I will get over this fear.’ After that thought I looked at my dad, as he was already planning on going on this ride. The ride was called Space Mountain, I was told that people with motion sickness shouldn’t go on the ride, but that won’t stop me. I’ve also been told it is a pretty cool and fun ride, so that is another reason why I’m going on Space Mountain.

Why did Columbus travel west? Why did Marco Polo head east? Because it is that pull, that unknown, that prospect of adventure that compels humans to seek new frontiers to explore.

Humans have always been interested in space and the wonder in which it may hold. In the past, humans worshiped the stars as if they were gods while also studying their position to give them guidance for their lives. Their interested in space has fathered the desire to know more. Today, space has been seen by many as the new frontier or the home beyond earth. Society have even taken a step forward through the creation of stories in books and movies based of the idea of humans living in space and the present of alliances. Yet there is still controversy on the need to continue space exploration when our own planet has so many detrimental problems. There is an ongoing debate on whether not the money used for space travel could be better beneficially use for other causes. It is true that space exploration costs billions of dollars a year alone according to NASA current budget, which is constantly increasing. However, what many refuses to understand is that without space exploration many of the innovations that we have today would not have existed. While there have been, many failed attempts involving space exploration that has caused a tremendous amount of money to go down the drain. However, many people fail to realize the benefits of space exploration and the possible future it may
