The Moon-Port film was about the advantages and disadvantages of the new technologies and new discoveries that were made in Florida in the past. Many citizens of Florida were affected with the changes in society because the more new technology the more discoveries that are being made in the environment. NASA affected the growth of Florida’s population because many new things were made to make everyone’s life easier. The creators of this film wanted to communicate to people who wanted to be informed with the information on how the society grew in Florida because of space discoveries. This film shows that Florida at the time was beginning to grow and didn’t have a big population at the time. According to the film, NASA did help grow the culture and society of Florida citizens. At the time, when Florida was just beginning, there wasn’t a huge population like there is today and there are many reasons as to why Florida grew as a …show more content…
The creators of this film hoped for the younger generation and just anybody to watch the film and realize all of the events that happened during that time in history. The ideas and feelings that they wanted to communicate was to be helpful in giving accurate information about space history. In the film, it says “The towers of Canaveral give Florida a unique place in the history of man. Moonport USA. Moonport of the free world. From here, man of the western world will depart on his greatest adventure: a trip to the moon.” This statement from the film shows what the creators of this films intention was which was to have this time in history be remembered by those who want to be informed of exactly what happened. The film creator made the Moon-Port Film to give a great representation of how life was in Florida before many new technologies were
The speaker Ayn Rand, was incredibly passionate throughout the entire commentary. She addresses the fundamental significance of Apollo 11, stating that it is not political; it is philosophical. The audience for this particular situation would be anyone who enjoys commentaries. This publication was created by Rand, for the sole purpose of putting forward her philosophy of objectivism. The subject of this commentary was to talk about mankind itself, and how Apollo 11 completely redefined what it means to be a human.
Florida plays a big role when coming to the topic of space exploration and discoveries. In Florida, there is the port of Cape Canaveral where there is the NASA base and Kennedy Space Center which factors into and leads to many big discoveries, successful rocket launches, etc. Because of this center, it changes the ways of Floridians through economics, culture, growth, and the life of the citizens here and in this essay, we will learn about all these factors on Floridians, and the country. To begin with, there were three questions given needed to answer and the first of which being, “According to the film, how did NASA and the space program influence Florida's growth, economy and culture?” This can be answered through Part 4 in the “Moonport
Augustine was an important development in the history of Florida, but even more important than the settlement itself was the European culture it helped integrate into the largely Native American-populated Florida. Menéndez de Avilés, hailing from Spain, brought with him the Spanish language along with the Catholic religion into Florida (“Latino American Timeline.”). Furthermore, future Florida leadership, for around the next two centuries, would continue to be of Spanish descent (“List of Colonial Governors of Florida.”). As a result of this, Catholicism and the Spanish language were deep-rooted in Florida’s culture back then, and in a way, they still largely are
The suburb used to be a navy base and is named after it’s previous owner called Dr. Jefferson Jefferson. Jefferson Park is described as the usual suburb, with cul-de-sac roads and play-grounds. Just like Malvina Reynolds said back in 1962, little boxes and they all just look the same. When he describes Jefferson Park’s history, we’re given the sense that Jefferson Park is unique and specific, when in reality it is one of countless suburbs in Orlando. John Green’s
He addresses the schoolchildren who watched this disaster and said, “It’s all part of the process of exploration and discovery.” He uses simple and direct language and many emotion words such as “brave” and “future” to help the young to understand this tragedy. His tone began to change in the sixth paragraph when he said, “We don't hide our space program. We don't keep secrets and cover things up. We do it all up front and in public.”
Was the NASA Moon Landing of 1969 Real or Fake? In 1969, all of America watched as NASA sent the first manned ship into space and to the moon. Hundreds of people gathered around the launch station and thousands watched the live broadcasting on the news. As the countdown reached 0, the rocket with Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldron and Tim Collins flew to space and America gave a sigh of relief. Now it was time to watch as Neil Armstrong took the first steps on the moon to plant the American flag on the moon symbolizing our victory in the notorious “Space Race” with the Soviet Union.
On January 28th, 1986, Ronald Reagan, the president of the United States at the time, in his speech, entitled “Challenger Disaster,” addressed the Challenger Disaster. He supported this claim by first mourning over the tragedy, then he promoted NASA, also he tried to make sense of this calamity, and finally he informed the audience that the seven astronauts will never be forgotten and as a country we will be forever thankful for their service. Through Reagan’s use of tone, rhetorical analysis, and rhetorical tools he effectively persuaded America to mourn and appreciate the lives of the seven astronauts loss and to convince American people to continue their support for NASA and move forward as a country. Reagan unified America with his supportive
As well, figurative language in his speech showed the passion and bravery the astronauts had. “As they prepared for the journey and waved goodbye and ‘slipped the surly bonds of earth’ to ‘touch the face of god’” (8). His use of personification justifies to all citizens that the journey that turned into a disaster was not their last. It was only the beginning for them.
Later that night President Ronald Reagan came on air to give the State of the Union address and talk on the tragedy that had just unfolded. Through this speech President Reagan consoles the families of those who lost their lives, the American schoolchildren, and the American public as a whole. He also gives this speech to reassure America of the viability of the NASA program and the light in the future. By the use of rhetorical skill, including analogy, strong emotional appeals, and his position of power, President Reagan manages to convince America that despite the tragedy the benefits of keeping a space exploration program greatly outweigh the losses.
He had to get used to the different routines and lifestyle of Florida and that can be challenging or take awhile to learn since it is quite different than
Retrospectively, Hispanic Americans have played a large role in shaping Florida, and creating the rich, dense history of the cultural paradigm that is present-day Florida. Pedro Menendez de Aviles is a quintessential example of someone who has used dedication and audacity to overcome hardships and develop the state of Florida. Harriet Beecher Stowe once said “It is as though some little… Spanish town had broken loose, floated over here, and got stranded on a sand bank,” and that it
To begin with, Florida’s culture was effected quite a lot by the space program. When the space program started Florida started booming with new inventions, better businesses, schools, etc. According to the article, “The Space Program Changes the Economy and Culture of Florida,” the author states that, “Space became an integral part of Florida’s culture. Communities near Cape Canaveral promoted Florida’s “Space Coast” as a new and exciting destination
On September 12, 1962, at Rice University in Houston Texas, John F. Kennedy gave a powerful speech to garner support for the funding of the space race for the USA. He stated the importance of putting a man on the moon before the end of the decade in its efforts against the Soviet Union and the expectation was met in 1969 by the astronaut Neil Armstrong. His speech forged a new path that the US was heading and inherently started the revolution of the exploration of outer space. Kennedy’s “Moon Speech” makes use of ethos and Kairos to persuade the people of America to become interested in and invest in the ongoing space race. A very important factor in JFK’s speech was his effective use of rhetoric, notably ethos, which he used to make himself become more believable and authoritative.
He begins speaking about the disastrous occasion that was Apollo 1. Three astronauts were killed as a result of a cabin fire in 1967, but NASA has never experienced a calamity like this before. He mourns their loss, but also raises up their names in praise. “Nineteen years ago, almost to the day, we lost three astronauts in a terrible accident on the ground. But we’ve never lost an astronaut in flight; we’ve never had a tragedy like this.
Our Journey to the Moon On September 12, 1962 President John F. Kennedy gave a speech in Houston, Texas at Rice Stadium. This 18 minute long speech was made to convince the people of the United States as to why we should go to the moon. The “We choose to go to the Moon” speech was written by both John F. Kennedy and his speech writer, Ted Sorensen (Press). The purpose behind this speech was to gain America’s support and to get everyone on board with the idea of space exploration. The reason for the embarkment of space exploration was due to the ongoing space race between the U.S. and the USSR.
