Space Exploration Past, Present, Future

Space Exploration The Big Picture Space exploration is still in infancy. Although we have learned a lot, we still have a lot of questions. The cost of space exploration mandates that we work together with other countries. Example: International Space Station (ISS)

NASA National Aeronautics and Space Administration Accomplishments: First to land someone on the moon Invented the space shuttle Developed many products for space that we now use as everyday products Example: Velcro

Space Exploration History The space age began on October 4, 1957, when the Soviet Union launched Sputnik, the first artificial satellite to orbit Earth. The Soviets also achieved the first piloted space flight on April 12, The United States and Soviet Union were world leaders in space exploration throughout the 1960’s. I got this…

The Space Race and Cold War Our ability to achieve our space goals became an indicator of our status as a great nation, and the Soviets were our top competitors. This occurred during a time in our history known as the Cold War. This was a time when our relationship with the Soviets was, well, cold. The intense rivalry between our two countries led us to some amazing accomplishments. Khrushchev & Kennedy

Going to the Moon Apollo 8 orbited the moon 10 times and returned to Earth safely on December 21, 1968 Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed Apollo 11 on the moon on July 20, Neil Armstrong was the first person to set foot on the moon. The laptops in our classroom are more powerful than the computers used to run the Apollo program!

Space Shuttles A space shuttle is a reusable space craft. First used in Able to land on an ordinary airfield. Two shuttle tragedies in 1987 and Shuttles replaced the previous method of space flight – Rockets and capsules.

Probes Vs. Human Pilots Probes can make space flight cheaper, safer, and faster. Human pilots can make decisions when things don’t go as planned.

What is the greatest challenge facing space programs that are trying to send humans to other planets? Providing the resources necessary for sustaining human life on such a long journey.

Additional Difficulties Include Radiation exposure Lunar dust Food and Nutrition Exercise Differing levels of pressure, atmosphere composition, and gravity Sleep loss Risk of bone fracture Reduced muscle mass Reduced aerobic capacity Mental disorders arising from extreme, confined, and isolated conditions

The Future Exploration at greater distances Extended stays Humans need to be ready and educated for the space travel of the future
