In an attempt to save part of the population, humanity has decided to venture into space on cooperative missions with robots to build colonies using technologies developed from previous robotic missions to the surface of Mars such as those developed from the data of the Mars Exploration Rover program.

Nasa’s Success in The Last Five Decades Nasa has had 135 space shuttle missions in its history but how many of them have been successful? And what have they done to benefit humanity? Nasa affects our daily lives more than you would think. All kinds of technology we have today was developed by nasa or somehow relates to the nasa program.

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) was preceded by the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) which was decidedly discontinued and replaced by NASA when the National Aeronautics and Space Act was passed July 29, 1958. From that date on NASA entered the era of space focused projects and would lead the world to explore a vast new
For over fifty years, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, or NASA, has studied the outer space and how to get there. NASA was founded in 1958 by President Dwight D. Eisenhower. NASA basically branched out from another administration which was called the National Advisory Committee on Aeronautics, or NACA. There are different bases spread out throughout the country, but the NASA headquarters are in Washington. NASA has an administrator who handles giving speeches and informing the press
NASA: Money Well Invested The October 1957 launch of Sputnik alarmed the nation and the western world. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) was founded the following year in July 1958 by congressional mandate (National Aeronautics and Space Act of 1958, 1958/2012).

continuous change in the Earth’s climate throughout history (National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), 2016). According to NASA, there have been seven cycles of glacial advance and retreat in the last 650,000 years (National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), 2016). The last ice age was about 7000 years old and marks the beginning of the modern climate era and human civilization (National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), 2016). These changes have been attributed to small
Katherine Johnson is an American Hidden Figure. She was a trailblazer in her career at NASA who guided the way for women of all cultures.
