Now that the Space Race is over, what is the point? Are we wasting our money? Should we cut their budget? When the cold war ended with the soviets in 1991, it sparked up a debate as to whether or not the funding for the National Aeronautics and space administration should be continued. Although it may seem like a simple fix, it has proved to be one of NASA’s greatest and most difficult challenges yet.

During the Space Race, the U.S government received many good and bad judgements from the people. From start to finish, U.S citizens were fascinated by the Space Race. The diverse developments of the U.S.S.R and the U.S space programs were covered in national media. Astronauts (U.S) were seen as American heroes and Cosmonauts (U.S.S.R) were seen as villains.
Colonizing Mars Mars is often voted by people as being the most likely place for humans to colonize after we are done with Earth. This is often said because of Mars’s similar size to Earth and similar climate. However, Mars might not be the best place to go when we decide to make our first extra-terrestrial home. Whether you believe we should colonize another planet or not, evidence proves that moving to Venus is both logical and cost effective. There is much more promise in visiting Venus and much more we can learn.

This paper has given evidence of the benefits that were created through space exploration to contribute to education, culture, innovations, and new ways to address global challenge Space exploration gives educational and cultural purpose by filling a need to know the world, answer questions about our life and the nature of the Universe, and to enlarge the idea of what it is to be human. Because space exploration gives huge global investment and international partnerships, and because of its challenging nature, demands to develop the cutting edge technical capabilities needed, it gives opportunities to answer some of the global challenges today. When nations work together on space missions, this enlarges international cooperation into space. It gives interests and forges relationships that help make peace between nations.
Introduction Once a government monopoly, today space travel has now been expanded to private corporations. The resulting pros and cons have left the international community with questions to answer and decisions to make on the use of private companies in space. The privatization of space endeavors have brought on exciting new opportunities.
After witnessing the decline of new innovations by the world’s space programs since the ‘60s, he
The planet that we call home is dying, and we haven't done much to prevent it. Researchers at National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) have realized that there is no way to save it, so they have resorted to looking for a new planet to inhabit. A major issue with colonizing on other planets is food. Since plants cannot grow on other plants in our solar system, and we have not learned how to travel interstellar, NASA is developing a system to farm in space. Space farming is going to be a critical part of our future, and expanding our reach throughout the solar system.
