So
the question that we are asking ourselves are how much is space exploration really worth to human society?
Does it outweigh the costs? What are the benefits and what are our limitations? At the end, we will find out. I think
that we could benefit a lot from space exploration because for example, if
anything happens to our earth, if we searched the space we might find a new
place to go to. Also, we might find some new species of life form. Another
thing that we could find, is materials such as the rocks on the moon… etc. But
even though I think these would all be great ideas, there are some costs too.
It might happen for example that the engine is dead, or something happens to
the rocket, like on the video we watched with the teacher going to space, the
whole crew could die. I think that sending people to the moon and other planets
is a great idea, because like I said, we could find new species, and we would
become even smarter than we are now. But I think that only doing Earth-based research
isn’t a good idea because like that we can only learn about our planet, and we wouldn’t
know anything else about the rest of the universe. I don’t think that we shouldn’t
learn about earth at all though, because if we do, we wouldn’t know to predict
what can happen to it. So I think that it is important that we do both.
If I had to chose 5 top things my country would work on, the
first thing would be medical studies, because with medical studies, we would
find out about new medicine, and it would make our life a bit longer. The
second thing would be education, because without education, nobody would have
the knowledge to do all the tasks, especially medical studies! The third thing
would science studies, because like that we could make new technology, and sell
them to other countries for money so we could spend it on other things. The
fourth thing would be transportation, such as airports, marines… etc. Like this
tourist would come to our country, and we would get a lot of money on that. But
like this we would import and export materials. And the fifth thing that I
think would be important is space exploration, because with that, we could find
new things, and then sell them to other countries. Also we would get better
knowledge of space.
In conclusion, I think that space exploration is very
important to human society, because we would find out more about the universe.
It does outweigh the costs because with space exploration, like I said before,
we can find so many things we can now only imagine! And there are much more
benefits then limitations!
