The technological and economic benefits that the space program has given or will give are a good factor. The history behind the space program is the biggest factor because of all the recognition and appraise it has received. Money is a big factor when it comes to the space station. The United States government has enough money to work on problems both here and in space and will continue to explore the last frontier. America spends twelve million dollars an hour on the war in the
While it is true that Earth has benefitted from past space exploration, it remains very important for the leaders of America to weigh the pros and cons of further exploration. They must take into consideration today’s economy and the fact that many people are much more concerned about their jobs here on Earth, rather than worrying about exploring other planets. American exploration of Mars began in the late 1990s, and since that time, the United States has sent eight different vehicles to the Red Planet (Kluger 24). All of this exploration has been very expensive for the American taxpayers. Recently, the idea of privatizing the business of sending cargo and astronauts into low-earth orbit has become a reality.
His observations of planetary motion, mostly that of Mars, gave important data for astronomers to come, like Kepler. This helped us construct our model of the solar system we use today. The calculation that if the Earth moves then the stars are at least 700
John Fitzgerald Kennedy, the 35th president of the United States, is considered by many Americans to be on of the greatest presidents in America’s history. People who were around during his presidency still admire him, but even people who were very young or not even alive during his presidency still hold him in high regard. While he may have made some mistakes in his presidency, people mainly remember him as a young, charismatic leader who bravely handled crises such as the Cuban Missile Crisis and helped advance America’s space program. He was considered a charismatic speaker and a great communicator. He spoke with passion but stated his ideas simply, allowing him to appear very bright but still appealing to the average American.
NASA's research has increasingly made our daily lives easier. Their research has contributed to improvements in our economy, national security, lifestyle and productivity. It is hard to find any area in our lives that Nasa hasnt enfluenced. Here are just a few exaples of some of the things Nasa has done. NASA has greatly influenced our field of computer technology.
John F. Kennedy states, “Well, space is there, and we're going to climb it, and the moon and the planets are there, and new hopes for knowledge and peace are there.” The deliberate use of “and” shows that when we get to space, the outcomes are limitless. Reaching space will open many new doors to new opportunities. It will have a ripple effect, one new discovery leading to another. The repetition of “and” develops a continual flow, seeming that the sentence and success and opportunities for the U.S.A. may go on for forever. In conclusion, anaphora, the use of metaphors, and asyndenton all aid in President John F. Kennedy's speech that the United of States should extend the space program.
I think that this mission impacted the world because it was more of a dry run then anything. It was a practice to see how every played out and the fact that it all worked out in everyone's favor gave society hope that maybe one day we would be able to travel in space. It was the very first manned craft and fortunately not the last. Mercury Redstone 3 Freedom 7 was testing what alterations needed to be made to the boosters. Although there were many major changes the mission was one of NASA's many and first major
Obviously, Neil A. Armstrong was the first person to traverse across the rocky soil of the moon. While he may have reached the apex of his American Dream with that first historical step on the moon’s surface, Mr. Armstrong realized many accomplishments over a period of numerous years. He began a humble career as an engineer, then progressed into that of test pilot, and on to that of astronaut. In addition, he impressively served as
This makes the reader see Yvette Yergon Optimistic and see his side of space travel and how it possible to travel to space faster and more often. He then sheds light on why he wrote this piece “after visiting an exhibition presented by an international group called Kolmbus-21” he says that they were “a group of influential thinkers” they saw the potential of further space travel this convinces the reader that there are all sorts of possibility’s out there in space all the resources out there waiting to be collected this enhances the audiences thoughts on how to retrieve resources for our “beautiful blue planet” this makes the reader joyful since our planet is running out of resources. Yvette Yergon then goes on about the resources how if the government in “interested in spending money” “there must be more
In own intentions to fight and overcome the roots of communism the 40th President of America was ready to take any sacrifices in order to realize the political objectives. It can be noticed within the optimistic phrases of President: “We'll continue our quest in space; there will be more shuttle flights and more shuttle crews and, yes, more volunteers, more civilians, more teachers in space; nothing ends here...” (Reagan). The intentions and aspirations to be ahead of Soviet Union in space industry played into Reagan's hands, although sometimes it was necessary to step over some human lives (Stuckey
