Countries should not waste money exploring space. Instead, we should spend money and resources protecting our planet and solving the problems that we have on earth

Someone argues that governments should spend their budget and resources not on researching the cosmos, but on looking after our planet,

Earth

. I disagree with

this

opinion. On the one hand, There are some reasons why governments should spend their money on

Earth

.

First

of all, we should solve the problems within the

earth

.

Earth

is suffering from its own problems

such

as global warming and the gap between the rich and the poor. Developing the universe is for advance, but investing in

such

problems is for survival. The

second

reason is that we don’t know perfectly even about

earth

yet. It is premature to study the universe without knowing the

earth

perfectly. We should research unknown parts of the

earth

such

as the deep sea.

On the other hand

, we should investigate space. In the

first

place, the lifespan of the

earth

is going toward the end.

Therefore

, we should find

earth

such

as Mars, where our descendants will live, and the way we get there. If we prepare it when the end is coming, it is too late.

Secondly

, we can gain many new resources and materials which replace one which is lacking on the

earth

. The cosmos is extensive compared to the

earth

where we are living.

Moreover

, there is awash in very diverse and new things, so we can make advance by taking and studying that. In conclusion,

although

investing in the

earth

is important, the universe has bigger value.

Thus

, spending money on space should be encouraged.
