Since the middle of the 20th century, beginning with the

first

human trip to the moon until the

last

robot sent to Mars, a lot of money was invested in space research.

However

, some people think that the fund could be applied to advance conditions here on

Earth

To begin

with, it is important to acknowledge that the investments in studies about the universe and other planets contributed to the advance in the knowledge about

Earth

itself.

For instance

, a lot of information about our planet's history and origin came from studies from meteorites.

In addition

, these studies help us to understand more about the past and have more ideas about the future.

For example

, it is possible to compare the conditions that enable life on here with another planet's settings, as well as study the expansion of the universe and calculate when the sun will transform to its

star phase.

Consequently

, I believe that space research is crucial and must keep receiving funding.

Nonetheless

, there are thousands of people here on planet

Earth

suffering from poverty, starvation and struggling to survive, due to even social inequality, diseases or climate catastrophic events.

This

is a huge problem that should be addressed by local governments. One of the possible solutions could be to increase the amount of taxes from billionaires and millionaires, as well as from big companies.

Therefore

, the money collected could be applied to improve the conditions of the marginalized population that have difficulties living. In conclusion, while research about the universe is essential for our understanding of the future and past of the solar system, there are

also

some enormous problems on our

Earth

that need to be solved. I slightly disagree with the statement, and I believe that both situations deserve to receive fundings.

An increasing number of professionals, such as doctor and teachers, are leaving their own poorer countries to work in developed countries. What problems does this cause? What solutions can you suggest to deal with this situation?
In recent years, many experts such as doctors lecturers, and teachers have been going abroad to pursue their careers in developed nations. This phenomenon might be caused by the under-average wages and low benefits offered by their own countries for their jobs. To handle this, the government should pay their professionals enough and give them higher benefits since their professions have a big impact on society.
