NASA's Hubble Space Telescope was launched April 24, 1990, on the space shuttle Discovery from Kennedy Space Center in Florida. • Hubble has made more than 1.2 million observations since its mission began in 1990. • Astronomers using Hubble data have published more than 14,000 scientific papers, making it one of the most productive scientific instruments ever built. • Hubble does not travel to stars, planets or galaxies. It takes pictures of them as it whirls around Earth at about 17,000 mph. •

In the first place,“NASA’s Curiosity is robotic rover that landed on mars in 2012. Since then, Curiosity has been roaming Mars, collecting data and looking for signs of microbial life. We should NOT spend valuable resources on space exploration. The first reason, I think space exploration should not be a priority because while in space you can run out of needed supplies like most importantly food and water. In the video, In the space shuttle it showed that there is limited amout of food and space

Whenever a group of geniuses team up with other geniuses, you can expect something really amazing to come out of it as a result. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA AKA the department that turns imagination into reality) has announced that Boeing will complete the advanced design work for the Agency’s Experimental Spaceplane, the XS-1. DARPA states that the XS-1 project looks to create an aerospace platform. It would be a hypersonic airplane with the capability to launch on short

Ashton Fitzsimmons Moonport USA Space exploration has impacted Floridas economy in many ways. One of the biggest impacts on the economy is that rockets launch from Cape Canaveral, Florida. They chose the Cape because it is an island surrounded by water. They used the land to build more rockets, laboratory’s, and for test launches. Many people call the part of Florida the space coast since it is known for launching rockets off the island. The NASA and the space program has influenced Florida’s

The Student Spaceflight Experiments Program (SSEP) is a program in which groups of three to five students work together to figure out an experiment that they would like tested in space. The winning group’s experiment will be tested in space to see if their experiment will actually work and to benefit future astronauts. I was fortunate enough to participate in this program, which has taught me many lessons and has given me information that will be extremely valuable in my future years as a student

the vacuum of space. The suits would also have to be made right to withstand the space radiation. Radiation in space is a form of subatomic particles that can rip through your D.N.A. Many of these dangers can be avoided if we send robots instead of humans. Another problem that could be avoided if we sent robots is the danger of moon dust. If you do not brush off your suit before getting back on the shuttle, the dust can become airborne and when you breathe it in it will scratch your airways and lungs

They might think that because everybody will be reunited and there will be innovation for people. In “Future of Space Exploration Could See Humans on Mars, Alien Plants” it states “Though many people object to funding the space program when there are humanitarian needs that have to met on Earth, Jemison points out that such exploration oftens leads to innovation and unexpected technology that

Many things could’ve changed the outcome of my rocket. The spin helped so much as it flew straight and didn’t curve left or right whatsoever. It was the longest rocket in the air out of my class and came second closest to the school. Many parts of my rocket could’ve contributed to that. For example, if I didn’t include the 1 ½ inch tilt on my fins it could of made it curve left or right and fall down quicker. Also, if I didn’t include the eraser for weight at the tip, it wouldn’t be up for nearly

C.Hadfield was born on August 29th, 1959 in Sarnia, Ontario. He was raised by his parents; Roger and Eleanor Hadfield. In his younger years, he was inspired to fly when he watched Apollo 11. As he got older, Chris was a part of the Royal Canadian Air Cadets, as a result when he was 15 years old he got a scholarship for a glider pilot program. The next following year when he was 16, he received a scholarship for a power pilot program. He attended White Oaks secondary school in Oakville but in
