Some peoole think goverments should spend as much money as possible exploring outer space.Others think goverments should spend this money for our basic needs on earth.Which of these two opinions do you agree with?

Few believe that democracies should spend more expenditure on discovering new life on other planets,while others trust that governments should spend

this

money on earth for the basic amenities of the

people

.I personally think that government should give equal priority to each other.In

this

essay,I will discuss both these views and give my opinion. On the positive side,space exploration involves launching

satellites

in the earth's orbit,which helps to predict climatic changes and natural disasters on the earth.

As a result

,major economic loss can be prevented by gathering

such

types of data from

satellites

.

For example

,a tsunami occurred in India in 2004, and major deaths and economic losses are prevented by the usage of

satellites

.

Moreover

,

satellites

are

also

used in the military for security purposes.They help in the surveillance of border areas,which helps security forces face the threat posed by enemies.

For instance

,in 1970 large scale Pakistan in Jammu&Kashmir was prevented by the use of the

satellites

. On the negative side,

people

view

this

spending in a lavish manner.As these expenditure does not fulfil the basic amenities of the

people

like food,water and other needs.

As a result

,

people

view it as a waste of money and

people

become angry.They

also

claim that it has no tangible gains for the poor.

For example

,countries like developing nations spend as much double on space exploration as the necessary needs of humans. In conclusion,I understand that space exploration is of paramount importance in world technology,but it does not overweigh the basic needs of the

people

.So,I personally think that both should be given equal importance.
