space and the unknown
Space and the Unknown For centuries, human kind has looked up at the sky in wonder. Primitive man drew pictures of stars in space on stones and walls, due to amazement of the unknown. ... The International Space Station is the doorway to the future of mankind and the world, as it is known. ... A plan like this, arranged to benefit the whole world economy, should sound like a good idea to most people, but some do not agree and believe that the highly anticipated space station will be a disaster for the already suffering economy, that will lead the nation into debt and regret. It is human nature to explore the unknown and to dream the impossible. ... Likewise, there were just as many skeptics when NASA announced that man was going to travel in space, yet, look how far the space program has come in the last 40 years.
