Human exploration

Even SpaceX’s Elon Musk made the pledge to have humans step foot onto Mars by the year 2020 which shows that the future might not be so bleak (Javelosa). However, this begs the question, should humans go to Mars? Or is it still way to dangerous and worth the cost? That question there will always be present in the background when planning any space explorations. Given recent times it might be best to temporarily halt human endeavors

I am writing this paper to claim that space exploration is a huge waste of resources and we should focus our efforts on the sustainability of the Earth. I plan to explore the benefits of sustainability and discredit arguments for space exploration. Sustainability is the more realistic and feasible choice. A very popular argument for space exploration is to protect our Earth that we have managed to almost destroy, by finding another planet to retreat to. Many people believe the only option is to

Earth’s tormentous catastrophes, cavernous oceans, and unfathomable creatures. While one may say that Earth will be around for a plethora of years, making space exploration a waste, one may refute this by saying humans are destroying the natural composition of our planet and there should be steps taken in order to discover ways to save the human race from extinction. With the knowledge and power of our race, we cannot restrict our desire to explore as potential man missioned expeditions to space could

     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

and even the solar system, or what new technologies are going to be made from space exploration, what benefits have we already seen from space exploration, and countless more. Society has benefited significantly from space exploration and all the new advancements, innovation and new ideas it has brought us. the beneficial effects that the economic, social, and health aspects of the society sees from space exploration proves we have a definite need to continue funding for future space research because

”Sooner or later, we must expand life beyond our little blue mud ball—or go extinct.” (“Elon Musk - Entrepreneur on the grandest scale”). If this statement about the future of the human race isn’t absolutely terrifying then a reevaluation of your major concerns is necessary because you are missing the ingrained human instinct of survival. While the impending doom of Earth and everyone on it should be an issue of the utmost importance, the voting population and Congress of the United States seem

IS SPACE EXPLORATION WORTH THE COST? It has been more than half a century since humans first ventured into space, and safely came back to the Earth, bringing stories, findings and exploration success that still leave people wondering in awe hitherto. The phrase “one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind” has been eternalized ever since astronaut Neil Armstrong stepped foot on the moon. Continuing Apollo 11’s triumphant trace, NASA and the other remarkable space agencies around the world

The human imagination tends to fascinate over the anonymous discoveries and the unseen images of Space. However, we must control our desire to explore Space by putting the financial and the psychological impact ahead of us. The effort and the cost for space exploration is not proportional to the wealth it promises, which in result could become a burden for the American citizens. According to Source E, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration have dedicated $5.3 billion to space exploration

Humans are the future of space exploration. When humans first landed on the moon in 1969, the world rejoiced in the historic milestone. Since the Apollo missions stopped, no human has been on another planet. If we were to send a human to another planet, it would be a gigantic milestone in human history for space exploration, possibly spurring another space race. Future space explorations must be manned missions as it will create a greater interest in space exploration in the general public.

night sky, but I’ve always thought of outer space as a special place where discoveries can be made and exploration can happen. Now that I’m older and more interested in the science side to the sky, outer space seems even more amazing It’s baffling that I can lay on my back, look up, and each tiny glowing dot I see is several million times larger than my own planet. It’s even crazier that the human race has ways to explore it. We’re tiny. The universe is older and bigger than we will ever be able to
