The First Landing On The Moon

During the twentieth century, the power struggle between the United States and the Soviet Union became prevalent through proxy wars and the Space Race. The Cold War had begun in 1947 when the United States had become more worried about the growing influence of the Soviet Union on Eastern European nations. The rivalry between the Soviet Union and the United States had become one of the biggest contests, that eventually culminated in the dissociation of the Soviet Union. Although there were many different events that had occurred during the Cold War, perhaps the most important one would be the Space Race. Despite popular belief, the moon landing was the reason that America became a global superpower because it showed America had superior

What makes you understand something better: words or images? In this case Rand uses words to help us with a mental picture. Detailed wording is what put her article above others. For the reason that not a lot of people were able to witness this event first hand, she made it simple to imagine the take off of the rocket and what it might have felt like. For example, “The dark red fire parted into, as if a hydrant were shooting streams of fire upward and down…”. By using these type of descriptions, the readers are now able to put the mental images together like a puzzle to make a whole image of the event as best as possible. Readers also get to thinking about the event and how it must have felt to attend that history making moment on July 16, 1969, which is an appeal to logos.

The speaker of this text is William Safire. The occasion also has to do with the moon landing, but it talks about what would have been said by President Nixon’s speechwriter if the mission was not successful. The audience would be the entire world, because it would have been a tragedy if it was not accomplished Safire would have told everyone in the planet about it. The purpose of this text would have been to let everyone know about the fatal deaths that happened in the attempt to have landed on the moon and to also let everyone know how they feel about losing these souls and that they would always be remembered. The subject of the text is to notify everyone in the world about the failure of the moon landing. Ethos is shown in the text because it is proving that it is credible and trustworthy since this would have been said by someone that President Nixon knew. Pathos is also displayed in the text because it claims that, “ They will be mourned by their families and friends; they will be mourned by their nation; they will be mourned by the people of the world; they will be mourned by a mother Earth that dared send two of her sons into the unknown.” This proves that there is emotions and everyone would have been very sorrowful and depressed for the lives that had just been lost. Logos is shown in the text by stating the year in which it was released and since it said it was “prepared” then that means that it was written ahead of time before it was released,

On July 20, 1969, humanity did itself proud in spite of all its wars, sadism, hatred, and insanity. We set foot on another planet. Men walked on the moon. This changed our belief in what we could accomplish.

During the twentieth century, the power struggle between the United States and the Soviet Union emerged through proxy wars and the Space Race. The Cold War began in 1947 when the United States worried about the growing influence of the Soviet Union on Eastern European nations(Challenge to Apollo). The rivalry between the Soviet Union and the United States had become one of the biggest contests, that eventually culminated in the dissociation of the Soviet Union. Although many different events occurred during the Cold War, perhaps the most important one would be the Space Race. Despite popular belief that the atomic bomb made America a global superpower, the moon landing was the main reason why America prevailed as a global superpower because it showed America had superior technology, a preferred ally, and pulled America into the lead of the Cold War.

On July 20th, 1969, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed on the moon....or so they say. It has been debated that the landing was actually fake, based on some characteristics in the photos that were taken on the moon. While majority thinks that the moon landing was indeed real, there is more evidence that proves it was fake. For example: The American flag planted in the moon, Buzz Aldrin’s footprint, and mysterious lights appearing in the sky all have hidden things in their photos that could have been impossible in outer space.

On May 25, 1961 President John F. Kennedy paved the way for the world’s first lunar landing when he announced the US’s ambitious goal to place an American on the moon before the end of the decade. This historic announcement was fueled by desires to beat the Soviet Union, and show the United State’s dominance, the need for a uniting cause among the American people, and a desire to lead the world in the scientific field.

Images are all around us. Images are timeless and they can tell stories of times that have been long forgotten. When a graphic element is used in a persuasive essay, it takes the paper from being simply words that form a person’s thoughts, to a paper that has true emotions; it is something that makes an argument stronger. Images can be used to elevate what the writer is trying to convey to their reader, with the hopes of grabbing the reader’s attention and pushing them to have a deeper connection to the issue that the paper is about. Furthermore, graphic images can pull emotion out of the reader so that the reader feels closer to the subject. However, graphic images are not only pictures of people or places, in some cases, especially in academic

When using rhetoric tenets, writers can create arguments that are very effective or ineffective at persuading an audience. This is seen in Eric Schlosser’s book Fast Food Nation in which he uses the three rhetoric tenets to better assure his claim of fast food but also use the rhetoric tenets ineffectively in an argument. By using these rhetorical ideas, his writing is very persuasive at points but also left unsuccessful at other times.

written so clearly and practically which helps the reader to dwell in the writing and understand it

“People only see what they are prepared to see” is a famous quote by Ralph Waldo. This quote emphasises the fact that the purpose of a text can often be unnoticed and misinterpreted by the viewer. Many people only have a limited world experience, and it’s the Distinctly Visual feature of a text which allows the viewer to gain a better understanding. Distinctly Visual texts use a combination of techniques to create and shape an audience’s point of view or interpretation, and visualising a text requires the responder to interpret all of the images presented.

Whilst the two texts are presented in a different way, both formats receive a similar response from the reader and are useful in presenting particular ideas about

The 1960's brought cultural transformation through outbreaks of violence and contention. The "Love and Peace" slogan led to a bloody fear of "War and Hate." It was an era of protest and revolt. The decade began with the assassinations of John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr., escalated with the viciousness of Vietnam, and ended with the suspicion of Watergate. And somewhere in the terror of freedom, we saw two Americans walk on the moon. It was while staring at that crystalline sphere hovering above us that we pondered the scope of our opportunity. On that warm summer night it was a miracle of technology, a step into a new world, a celebrated triumph. We engaged in a political race to the moon against the Communists with a democratic

The Space Race was between two Cold War rivals, the Soviet Union (USSR) and the United States (US). The race to space began in 1955. Apollo 11 successfully put the first man on the Moon. The end of the Space Race was in 1975. The Space Race is considered very important because it would show which nation had the best science, technology, and economic system.

July 16th, 1969. It’s a peaceful morning at Cape Canaveral with pleasant temperatures and little wind. All is calm. Suddenly, a tremendous roar shatters the morning as the crew of Apollo 11 blast off toward the moon, riding the biggest rocket ever created. Burning 20 tons of explosive fuel a second, it propels Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins into history. The spacecraft lands four days later on the moon. Millions watched as men took the first steps on a strange place 238,900 miles away, or 9 and ½ times around the earth. After placing America’s flag among the lunar rocks, the Apollo 11 crew lit their engines and headed for the small blue sphere we call home, splashing down safely in the ocean and completing Kennedy’s
