Some people think that space exploration is a waste of resource while others think that it is essential for mankind to continue to explore the universe in which we live. Discuss both sides and give your opinion.

Some people argue that exploring

space

involves too much investment and time, while others think it is required for survival of human existence. In

this

essay, I will discuss both views and express my opinion.

Space

requires huge amounts of

money which

money, which

the primary needs of the mankind and these should take precedence before any other development.

For example

, in the USA, 50 percent of the government savings are spent on the NASA agency, a portion of which could have been used to help certain poor areas in the New York city.

Therefore

, it is important to satisfy the primitive needs before spending money on exploration of

the universe

. Developed countries should help the poor countries to build these amenities

instead

of spending on

space

.

On the other hand

, it

also

seems important to

the planets and the universe. If we had not done enough

research

on

space

, we would not have found about the ozone depletion

this

exploration, we had the opportunity to learn more about the planet we live in, and develop a plan to safeguard the Earth from unexpected disasters.

Also

,

space

has helped us to understand the nature and the precautions we should take for natural calamities.

Space

research

would be very important for the future in order to look for a planet suitable for human existence to dwell, in case of Earth's destruction due to extreme

polution

and global warming. To conclude, even though

space

exploration provides significant knowledge about our planet and the universe, I think we should

initially

spend on delivering basic needs of the people. Once adequate funds are allocated for

look into

and explore more about the galaxies.
