Matters of cost-benefit analysis and the efficacy of the simulators in training have continued to engage this technological development. Research has shown that the training of United States Air Force pilots is more reliant on simulators than any other branch of the U.S. military. The early development of simulators was restricted in the genre of scientific fiction computer games and was purely meant to serve the purpose of entertainment. However, successive developments within the world of simulation saw the advancement in the technological element of the simulators leading to their use as implements of training. In this manner, simulators are important in enhancing the sense of realism for pilots.
In his Challenger speech, President Reagan persuaded the American public to continue to support the space program through his appeal to traditional American values of exploration and discovery, national pride, and national unity. The Challenger Disaster was without question a tragedy. Reagan acknowledged this but in his speech he declared that risk (and by insinuation, the tragedy that can come out of that risk) was a necessary evil to further
‘Fahrenheit 9/11’ and ‘The War Game’ share very similar themes. Politics, truthfulness, media, war and propaganda are what create the basis for both of these films and this is the most prominent similarity between them. The reason the similarities in themes are so obvious, is because Moore and Watkins both shared the same intent when creating each film. Watkins’ initially released ‘The War Game’ in 1965 to emphasize the British governments’ oblivious and optimistic approach towards the event of nuclear warfare. This can be compared to ‘Fahrenheit 9/11’, where the film was created in order to present the audience with biased
Argument Assay In the story “the flying Machine” by Ray Bradbury, the emperor executed an inventor because he had made a machine which could fly. The reason for this was that he wanted to protect his kingdom and keep peace for as long as possible. The emperor was not justified in killing the inventor of the flying machine. Some people argue that the emperor carried out this act for the benefit of his kingdom. This is true to some extent, for if his enemies did hear about a machine which could fly they would try very hard to get one.
The Advancement of Aerial Warfare The invention of the aircraft was similar to many other great developments in the fact it's potential was not immediately realized. Ever since the flight of the airplane model created by the Wright brothers on December 17th, 1903, warfare has changed dramatically, making the skies a territory to claim and fight for. The airplane has not only been every resourceful when it comes to transportation, strategy, and operations but it was also enlightened to develop technology that has made warfare more lethal. Therefore, we no longer have to risk many lives because the advantage that we have of being in the air. Distance is no longer a barrier for us as it use to be and number of targets have become limitless because there is no longer something that can hide.
Explain why the Nazi Regime proclaimed “Total War” in February 1943. (12 Marks) One factor behind why the Nazi regime went ahead with total war was because it offered a chance to revive public morale following the defeat at Stalingrad.

These immigrant soldiers would gladly fight and give their lives to protect their homelands from tyrannous German military dictatorship. The U.S. government would use these ties of patriotism and anti-tyranny to strengthen their troops through propaganda, libel, and advertising methods such as slogans, caricatures, and the first appearance of Uncle Sam. Patriotism would unify the American people as a whole during the Twentieth Century. Racial prejudice and segregation were prevalent among both American and European troops during World War I. The French respected the African American soldiers, but did not want jealousy to arise between them and the white American troops.
The Military and Human Enhancemens. The primary reason that the military is interested in the development of human enhancements is to give the United States an advantage over our enemies. These enhancements would be provided to elite members of the military such as navy seals who are assigned to special missions such as the capture of Osama Bin Laden. Lin also pointed out the military believed that these enhancements would enable a prisoner of war to be able to handle torturous interrogation better. The effect these enhancements would have on these soldiers both physically and mentally is the big question.

Along with common weaponry, America possessed the knowledge of creating the most powerful weapon of all time, nuclear
