Lesson Overview The Historical Benefits of Exploration The US Strategic Plan to Explore Space The Current Costs of Exploring Space The Practical Benefits of Space Exploration

The Historical Benefits of Exploration Man is an explorer Successful civilizations are often the most likely to undertake the dangers and costs of exploring strange lands Such civilizations sought access to distant riches Exploration led to increased knowledge and the development of new technologies

Historical Examples of Technological Advancements Through Exploration Sailing techniques, shipbuilding, and navigation More-accurate maps of the world The marine clock and the portable watch New World food and plant products

The US Strategic Plan to Explore Space On 14 January 2004, the President announced a new vision for American efforts in space A new spaceship to carry astronauts to other worlds: Orion A series of robotic missions to the Moon BUDGET CONSIDERATIONS

NASA’s 2011 Strategic Plan ( ) Strategic Goal 1: Extend and sustain human activities across the solar system Strategic Goal 2: Expand scientific understanding of the Earth and the universe in which we live Strategic Goal 3: Create the innovative new space technologies for our exploration, science, and economic future. Strategic Goal 4: Advance aeronautics research for societal benefit Strategic Goal 5: Enable program and institutional capabilities to conduct NASA’s aeronautic and space activities. Strategic Goal 6: Share NASA with the public, educators, and students to provide opportunities to participate in our Mission, foster innovation, and contribute to a strong national economy.

NASA’s 2011 Strategic Plan ( ) Strategic Goal 1: Extend and sustain human activities across the solar system International Space Station Commercial Space Partnerships

NASA’s 2011 Strategic Plan ( ) Strategic Goal 2: Expand scientific understanding of the Earth and the universe in which we live Radiation Belt Storm Probes (2012) Lake Mead 1985 Lake Mead 2010 Solar Dynamics Observatory Juno (2011) James Webb Space Telescope

NASA’s 2011 Strategic Plan ( ) Strategic Goal 3: Create the innovative new space technologies for our exploration, science, and economic future. The New Worlds Observer is a large in-space instrument designed to block the light of nearby stars to observe their orbiting planets. X-48B

How the International Space Station Will Advance Space Exploration Focus on understanding and overcoming the effects of space flight on human health This research will help make future space missions safer for astronauts

Spending on Space Exploration Versus Other Spending Americans spend more on pet food than they do to explore outer space Space exploration is arguably more like an investment Money spent on space tends to have lasting impacts The NASA budget for 2012 is $18 billion which includes $4.3 billion for the Space Shuttle and International Space Station programs, $5 billion for science, $3.9 billion for future exploration systems and $569 million for aeronautics research.

The Practical Benefits of Space Exploration The Argument for Funding NASA “built” an establishment of space scientists Space exploration requires broad range of disciplines: Astrophysics, biology, physiology, chemistry, engineering, and planetary geology Without the space program, the United States would have far less scientific expertise

How Space Exploration Has Led to Medical Breakthroughs Space science lifts Americans economically and is a boon as well to American health Important medical breakthroughs There’s no telling what other benefits may arise from future space programs, since such discoveries often happen by chance
