Going to Mars
Over the past few months people all over the world have applied for a mission to go to the red planet, Mars. Four lucky people will be chosen to go live on Mars. They will have to endure eight to ten years of brutal training. In addition, their every movement will be watched and scrutinized. After all of this, these few people will be the first to live and to die on Mars. Going to Mars is a dangerous mission. The smallest mistake can lead to ultimate mission failure. Even the tiniest of errors can cause engine failure, cosmic radiation contamination, or a shortage of power.
On January 28, 1986 the American shuttle orbiter Challenger broke up 73 seconds after liftoff. This brought devastation to the spacecraft after
The Mars society has spent over one million dollars on a mock Mars simulation to try and help eliminate some of the logistical and emotional conflicts on a real trip to Mars. In the article, “Getting Ready to Live on Mars”, it argues that the Mars simulations, costing one thousand dollars per person help get rid of some of the logistical and emotional issues that may occur on a real mission to Mars. The central idea of the passage is that Mars simulations are helping eliminate some logistical and emotional conflicts that might occur on a real trip to Mars, and is developed by using expert opinions and quotes.
On the morning of January 28th, 1986, Americans watched in shock and horror as the space shuttle Challenger exploded only 74 seconds after its launch, killing all seven crew members on board including a high school teacher Christa McAuliffe. Thousands, including families of the crew and schoolchildren
On January 28, 1986, the Space Shuttle Challenger “violently exploded” tragically after 73 seconds of flight (Reagan). Ronald Reagan then came out to remind everyone of the importance of mistakes like this and not to let them destroy people's confidence. He stated, “It’s all part of the process of exploration and discovery. It’s all part of taking a chance and expanding man's horizons. The future doesn’t belong to the fainthearted; it belongs to the brave.
The Challenger shuttle crew, of seven astronauts -- including the pilot, aerospace engineers, and scientists-- died tragically in the explosion of their spacecraft during the launch of STS-51-L from the Kennedy Space Center about 11:40 a.m., EST,
The Challenger space shuttle exploded after its launch. “Nancy and I are pained to the core by the tragedy of the shuttle Challenger. We know we share this pain with all of the people of our country. This is truly a national loss,” (Reagan 1). The obstacles of the Challenger exploding caused a period of grief and anguish for the citizens of America.
It occurred on January 28, 1986, when shuttle disintegrated 73 seconds after takeoff leading to death 7 crew members. Some of them died due to explosion and some of them due to impact with ocean. Disintegration of the vehicle began after an O-ring seal in its right solid rocket booster failed at lift off. The O-ring failure caused a breach in the joint it sealed, allowing pressurized hot gas from within the solid rocket motor to reach the outside and impinge upon the adjacent attachment hardware and external fuel tank. This led to the separation of the right-hand attachment and the structural failure of the external tank. Due to this shuttle was thrown sideways into the Mach 1.8 wind stream and broke
Each of the four orbiters in the armada - Columbia, Challenger, Discovery and Atlantis - were flown. Be that as it may, 1 minute, 13 seconds after liftoff - amid the 25th dispatch - on Jan. 28, 1986, the Space Shuttle blasted. The orbiter Challenger was obliterated and its team of seven murdered. The mishap had an extensive effect on the Space Shuttle program. Launchings were suspended for over 2 years, while proposals of a Presidential Commission which researched the mishap were executed, alongside changes called for by NASA
odds of disaster were realized. Every shuttle has a 1/24 chance of disaster. NASA 's

The temperature was thirty-six degrees Fahrenheit in Cape Canaveral, Florida, and after seventy-three seconds of flight, the O-rings failed and the Challenger exploded into a giant cloud in the sky. All seven astronauts died, including Christa McAuliffe, a teacher in Concord, New Hampshire, chosen by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration from thousands of applicants to go into space and preform school lessons.

SpaceX is planning on sending humans to Mars by the 2030s -- but why not Venus instead? Venus, at least in some ways, is much more like Earth than Mars, Unlike Mars, Venus has a thick atmosphere made of Carbon Dioxide to protect humans from harmful solar radiation, and may allow us to extract Oxygen from. Likewise, Venus also has similar size and gravity to Earth as well. After all, did I mention trips to Venus are much less costly than to Mars?
On January 28, 1986, a day that was supposed to be filled with excitement and exploration, suddenly turned into a day filled with tragedy and sadness. The space shuttle Challenger was supposed to carry a seven member crew into orbit with one unique member along for this particular mission. Christa McAuliffe was supposed to be the first teacher to go into space as a member of the Teacher in Space Project. Due to this occasion, the media coverage and the number of viewers of this mission was extensive, particularly in schools across the nation. The Challenger lifted off shortly after 11:30 A.M., but tragically only seventy three seconds after takeoff it exploded sending debris and the seven crew members back to earth and into the Atlantic
The Challenger exploded on its tenth flight during mission STS-51L, killing all seven crew members. The explosion occurred 73 seconds after the shuttle took liftoff, and the reason behind the explosion were the faulty O-rings. There were predictions that if the O-rings were to malfunction due to the cold temperatures, the rockets could explode before the shuttle took off from the Launchpad (Miller 79).
One of the greatest tragedies in history occurred on January 8, 1986. Shortly after it was launched, the space shuttle Challenger exploded, killing seven astronauts, including Christa McAuliffe, a New Hampshire schoolteacher chosen to be the first teacher in space (“Challenger Disaster, n.d.). The explosion was caused by a failure of the O-rings of the solid rocket boosters. The O-rings were unable to seat properly, causing the leaking of hot combustion gases, which burnt through the external fuel tank. The malfunction was not any one person’s or organization’s fault; it was caused by many factors including the decision to launch despite the cold weather, the poor communication between management levels of the National Aeronautics and
Despite the concerns raised, the Challenger was launched on January 28, 1986 [4]. Seventy three seconds after takeoff, the shuttle broke apart after the O-ring seal failed causing
