In the future, people may have to live on other planets. Some think that it is therefore important to spend money researching other planets such as Mars. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

People
's opinions differ on whether governments should devote the budget for investigating other
planets
because humans may be forced to live on
planets
other than
earth
. Considering that there is not any evidence proving that other
planets
are liveable, I advocate the
people
who disagree with
this
idea and believe the
money
should be spent on other high-priority issues. The most significant reason why I believe
people
will not live on other
planets
is that despite a considerable number of research, there is not still a testimony of
life
on other
planets
. Many astronomical scientific companies,
such
as NASA, have delved into some
planets
, like Mars, several times to discover signs of
life
. Nerthereles, these companies have not found what proves the existence of alive creatures on different globes from the
earth
.
In addition
, the research has revealed that the
earth
has the most appropriate climate and soil and sufficient amount of water for living;
in contrast
, on other
planets
, it is hard to live due to the lack of appropriate air and soil conditions or water shortage, leading to prevent to produce food which is on of the essential individuals' needs. Astronomical scientific companies have squandered a huge amount of
money
on projects discovering
life
on other
planets
so far, while the budget could be paid for other more critical problems. There are a significant number of issues pending to be tackled,
such
as poverty, leading to other problems, like hunger, illnesses, and crimes. Governments are expected to prioritize harnessing
such
problems playing a pivotal role in the crises. Not only
this
but
also
protecting the
earth
, as the main human's home, is much more vital than researching other
planets
. The
money
spent on delving into other globes could be used to conserve the
earth
's environment
that is
truly irreversible. If authorities had not squandered the budgets on seeking
life
on other
planets
, they could have invested it for environmental protection measures,
such
as developing waste recycling tools and equipment. In conclusion, I disagree with the idea that
people
are likely to have to live on other
planets
because the evidence has shown that it is not possible to live on them.
Moreover
, I believe it is not important to spend
money
researching other
planets
since the
money
should be expended on greater existing vital challenges.
