The space research helps us learn more about a subject that we do not know much now: time. Perhaps in the future this research will help people develop time travel. Many discoveries were made researching space and therefore mankind needs space to investigate further. But this research does not require too many resources space from us? Now humanity spends a lot of money for space telescopes, spacecraft and space probes.
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.
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.
This is vital for the future. “NASA has a plan to send humans deeper into space than ever before.” The space station is the first step as it will guide us ready for the journey ahead. The international Space Station with reference to its role in future space exploration and our increased understanding of the universe is that it educates our future generations of scientists, technologists, engineers and mathematicians in a global effort. It carries out many experiments to improve life in space and also helps humans make a better living by informing them of their surroundings (weather, etc.) more accurately.
Along with the tangible contributions that NASA has given, it has also added many intangibles that have changed the way people think about the universe and life itself. From acne treatments to food supplements, NASA has directly and indirectly revolutionized the way Americans live forever. It is in the best interest of the United States for NASA to continue to receive federal funding and it should not be disbanded because it has given birth to several important technological advances, it has helped us learn more about our universe and other planets, and it may someday lead us to the colonization of other planets. The first major area that NASA has had an impact on is the medical field. Since the health of those in outer space is a top priority, NASA has had many of its astronaut technologies transformed to be used in other ways, such as sports safety.
This proceeds with the question; what advancements are moral? I believe that any science, innovation, study, or sort of exploration must be morally just, intended to better our understanding of the world, and be created with intention to improve any part of society. For example, the formation of the first rocket ship was monumental in bringing exploration to the new frontier and impacted our society for the better. Therefore this invention would be considered moral and for positive advancement. On the contrary, the scientific creation of something such as the nuclear bomb could be considered scientific expansion for the worse as it can provide horrible outcomes and is lethal if put in the wrong hands; thus classified as
In terms of the relationship between humans and nature I would say we are a long way away from solving our major problem which is maintaining the earth so it can sustain us. So I would say the relationship is somewhat skewed. However on the question if reading this book has changed any thoughts in my mind? I will say not really but if you consider increasing the level and reminding me of how important the Earth is to humanity a change I will gladly answer as yes it did change my thoughts. I would recommend more people to read this book because of its thought provoking ability towards awareness of human’s responsibility on the face of this
In other words the theory that one scientist has proven today is more likely to be disproved tomorrow, due to the occurrence of new interpretations. A real life example could be at the time where the earth was said to be flat. This theory however was within a short time disproved as the earth is actually round. The Paradigm shifts: Thomas Kuhn introduced this. Kuhn said that science is dotted with scientific revolution.
The thirst for energy led us to look for more sources here on Earth. This led us to sources like coal, and fossil fuels. Some developed nuclear power plants that powered thousands of houses. While these energy sources provided us with benefits, did it also benefit Earth? At first we thought that this is a gift from Mother Earth, but we now realize its consequences.
Although these workers are displaced they do not sit idle and do nothing, automation has created new jobs for them. 60 minutes will be airing a show later this week, talking about this same topic. Robots may have taken over some jobs that were once done by humans but they created new jobs. Robots have made jobs easier than they once were; cut time spent on tasks, and made production faster and more efficient. What may have once taken months or years to complete may now take days or hours.
