Say no to Mars
Cost to go to Mars
NASA estimated that a people-to-Mars program would cost $400 billion, which inflates to $600 billion today.So going to mars would be like building 800 brand new hoover dams. Each one costing $800,000.Plus the fuel it would take to go to mars.
Robotic missions
The very first robotic mission was spirit and oppritunity.Their job ws to collect miterial from the surface.Sending them cost 820 million dollars.There has been so many sucess after them.
Polotics
People feared of job less because of how much money obama is puting in the funed.Obama is puting 40billion into the funed.He committed to increasing Nasa funding by $6 billion over five years and completing the design of a new heavy-lift launch vehicle by 2015 and to begin construction thereafter.
NASA Accomplishments
NASA’s Science Mission Directorate successfully launched three new space and Earth science missions designed to improve our understanding of solar processes.In the 1960's we sent the first men to ever be on the moon.In April 2010, the Global Hawk Pacific 2010 mission was the first environmental science mission of NASA's Global Hawk unmanned aircraft system.
Astronaut trainning
The training is intensive so people are chosen based on their ability to complete the initial training and the final roster of astronauts are those who can successfully complete the entire two years.Trainning lasts two years.At the end of the trainning the people that showed the most skill are picked.But some times som people get lucky.
Techology
Right now we are working on warp drive and this speed is faster than light.The fastest speed we have now is 37 thousand miles per hour. Spacex is a space transport company headquartered in Hawthorne, California.
Moon/mars
Going to earth cost much less than going to mars.THis is because going to mars needs more fuel and a diffrent tech.Going to the moon took days and this is because it is closer.
