Space Exploration Past, Present, Future

Re-cap What are some benefits of space exploration? What technologies do we have today because of space exploration?

Minds On... With your group, come up with an educated guess of the cost of space exploration.

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

We Are Curious …and so we study space. Things that we need to know about space exploration include: Rockets Artificial satellites Space probes Space stations Space shuttles Remote sensoring devices Space suits Radar Computers Fuel sources Landing modules Materials that can survive heat and pressure Solar panels Living quarters Biomedical equipment Air purification devices Telescopes And many more…

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, 1961. The first cosmonaut was Yuri Gagarin. He orbited Earth in a ship named Vostok. I got this…

Let’s Go 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, 1969. 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 1981. Able to land on an ordinary airfield. Two shuttle tragedies in 1987 and 2003. Shuttles replaced the previous method of space flight – Rockets and capsules.

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

We need both. We need balance. 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. We need both. We need balance.

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

Some 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

A launch  Highly explosive fuel,  Poor weather,  Malfunctioning equipment,  Human error  Even Once in flight  Floating debris,  Meteoroids,  Electromagnetic radiation Re - Entering to earth’s environment has also its dangers  As proven by the Columbia disaster.

The Cost In 1990s us spent about $100 billions on the Apollo Moon Program. This money could provide a year of health care for 1,65,000 people OR Electricity for 8,30,000 homes OR Build 2200 housing units
