Trump signed a bill that drives funding to NASA. The funding that NASA will receive is about 19 billion dollars. The average cost for a rocket launch is about 1.5 billion dollars. The research and experiments eat up a lot of the 19 billion dollars. NASA has launched about 135 rockets since they were started in 1958. Space exploration has always been a controversial topic. Going to Mars and maybe starting a colony on Mars has been a dream of many, but many people do not think that space exploration is a waste of money and the United States should not do it anymore. Elon Musk's Space X is a revolutionary company because they created a rocket that can go into orbit and come back down and either land on land or on a barge in the ocean. This is really amazing because this has never been done and most defiantly not a a barge in the ocean that is moving because of the waves.

ReplyDeleteI agree that supporting the space program is very important for many reasons. I find that it will help us to find out problems like was there ever life on Mars and to discover other planets.
ReplyDeleteI support the grant to give the space program money because it allows us to know more about the universe we live in.
