and worked extremely well for most IT executives as we could execute with multi-discipline partnerships, segment technology stacks and general provide core applications to our business partners. However we would suggest we are on the midst of our Apollo moment in technology. 1969 saw one of man’s greatest accomplishments achieved. Neil Armstrong walked on the moon a mere ten years after Kennedy’s bold challenge. A relatively insurmountable task when you consider we hadn’t even sent a man to space

These missions allow us to determine various aspects such as the history, the age, and the composition of the Moon and the Earth. Everyone knows the story of how the astronauts set foot on the Moon, collected lunar rocks and brought them back to Earth. But how did they know what the surface of the Moon would be like? This all thanks to the Surveyor program. Consisted of seven missions, five of

According to some scientists, the moon is not a natural satellite rotating around Earth but actually an artificial one. Furthermore, some believe that beneath the lunar surface is a hollow society developed by aliens. Of course, no proof of this exists yet but the evidence continues to grow.

research essay will discuss both the past and present hypotheses of origin of the Moon. The past hypotheses also known as “The Big Three” referring to Fission, Capture and Accretion hypotheses are popular in different times and centuries before the Apollo mission flew in 1972 (Tyson, 2000). However, the study on the moon rock brought by Apollo’s program gives unavailable clues for “The Big Three”(Tyson, 2000). Nowadays, the Giant Impact Hypothesis is regarded as the most leading theory that is most

The real reason Apollo missions made countless trips out of space was because they were in competition with Russia. We wanted to get to the moon first to prove we were more worthy than the Russians, who'd scared everybody with Sputnik I, the first artificial satellite, and Yury Gagarin, the first human in orbit. Russia was achieving things out of space that the United States weren’t. President John F. Kennedy refused to keep coming in second so he helped fund extra money to NASA and insisted that
