NASA's twin robot geologists, the Mars Exploration Rovers, launched toward Mars on June 10 and July 7, 2003, in search of answers about the history of water on Mars. They landed on Mars January 3 and January 24 PST, 2004 (January 4 and January 25 UTC, 2004). The Mars Exploration Rover mission is part of NASA's Mars Exploration Program, a long-term effort of robotic exploration of the red planet. Primary among the mission's scientific goals is to search for and characterize a wide range of rocks

be anywhere in space exploration it is today. Robert Goddard was and still is a huge role in the exploration space in so many ways. Robert Goddard was not very known when he worked best. People that have known him thought he was crazy because he came up with one of the most crazy theory of all time. This not thought of theory was that a Rocket could one day could carry a payload thru a vacuum. People thought this theory was unrealistic at the time because exploration of space was never heard

Goddard was born in Worcester, Massachusetts on October 5, 1882. He ended his life in Baltimore, Maryland on August 10, 1985. On March 16, 1926, he launched a modern rocket that uses liquid fuel for the first time in the world. By 1935 he developed a rocket to fly at speeds of up to 800 kilometres per hour. Also by using rocket propulsion, he explored the high altitude, even the practicality of reaching the moon. It proved that the rocket would operate in a vacuum and that it didn’t need the air

This universe is only expanding, and the International Space Station is coming up with ideas to expand their comprehension on the way the world functions. NASA shows human endeavor at its greatest, funding a search for knowledge. Putting more effort into their human spaceflight program could possibly refurbish the faith and views on what mankind is capable of. NASA can reach great accomplishments if astronauts were sent on a mission to Mars. As existing, curious beings, it is normal to want to explore

Space exploration has been in the minds of people most likely since the first man or woman looked up at the stars, its always been around for as long as we can remember. It started out small, with singular scientists working out their own theories, going off of ideas of what they thought may be true. In fact the oldest known record we have of the use of “Astronomy” was the greek scientist Eratosthenes (276 B.C.- 195 B.C.), who used the sun to calculate the size of the earth, and got very close with

A great deal of modern technology is a result of space exploration, so we should continue to explore space to expand our technology and knowledge. Technology before the exploration of space was different than the technology we have today.
