Some people think that space exploration can benefit humans in many aspects. Others think that it has many drawbacks. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
Space
exploration
includes the use of science and space
technology to explore outer space
with rockets and high-tech robots. It is often thought that space
study is advantageous to us in a lot
of ways, whereas
others claim that it brings us disadvantages. In my opinion, I consider that space
research is very beneficial to everyone.
On the one hand, it is maintained that space
exploration
is good for us in many aspects. It can improve the world's and human health by understanding the situation we are facing on Earth. This
is because satellites
in outer space
that can provide data about climate change and pollution guide experts to have more understanding of the earth's health problems. With the advancement of space
expeditions, they can receive information about climate and pollution feedback from satellites
, and help upgrade the conditions of the environment. In addition
, satellites
let scientists predict natural disasters with high accuracy. As a result
, we can live in comfort with the help of satellites
and space
exploration
to ensure our safety. Moreover
, space
exploration
will also
encourage children to be more interested in science and math. They might also
set up a goal to be able to explore the space
too. This
is mainly owing to the fact that space
exploration
is huge news to everyone and so it makes children believe that it is not impossible to explore outer space
. The consequence that brought to us is that children will be more confident in studying mathematics and science because of the influence of space
exploration
.
On the other hand
, according to
some, space
exploration
actually has disadvantages for humans owing for the following reasons. Firstly
, conflicts could happen between countries to fight who has better space
technology or a better find while
having space
exploration
. A good discovery can earn a country's lot
of reputation hence
, every country will fight for it to benefit their own. Other than that, some countries might be hostile to each other when they have more updated equipment for space
exploration
. It is believed that space
exploration
will affect the world's peace. Secondly
, every space
exploration
uses a lot
of money to launch. It is a waste of money if scientists didn't discover anything new. Instead
, some people feel that the modal spent could be used in other ways such
as improving public service and more. Not to mention
the pollution it causes can lead to greenhouse effects. For example
, every high-tech robot needs a lot
of materials such
as lithium and metals from nature to research. Besides
that, launching a rocket into space
releases large amounts of carbon dioxide and waste that has no way of reversing the effect at all.
To sum up
, although
people may vary in their opinion, I think that space
exploration
is good for humans with a few drawbacks. If scientists from all around the world can team up and work together for better space
exploration
technology, then
the drawbacks will be decreased.Submitted by s_syedy on

Word Count
IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.
A very long essay will not give you a higher band score.
Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
