Almost every day we may see something in the newspaper or on TV about the latest exciting developments in space exploration.Many people think we have a great pride in science and technology, and it is important for the happiness of humans.
We have already succeeded in using satellites for communications, the weather forecast and oil exploration.With further space research, more problems can be solved.For example, with the success of space flight, living on other planets is possible.We may solve the population problem on the earth.Space projects will also be helpful in finding some medicine to cure cancer.However, since space research began, some people have criticized the huge waste of money and other resources.Some people also feel that the space programme may harm the earth.Despite(尽管)these disadvantages and dangers, the advantages are more important.
Space exploration is helpful not only in the development of the country, but also in our understanding of life-we need to take better care of each other.
