Transcript: How important is NASA? How large is NASA'S budget? NASA'S original intended purpose was an act to provide research into the problems of flight within and outside the Earth's atmosphere. Its purpose today is basically the same as the original purpose but today NASA also does many manned and unmanned missions for the discovery and research on other planets. How large is NASA? NASA has received $17.8 billion in this fiscal year, which is 0.5 but there has been talks of NASA receiving a 20 percent cut of funds. I believe that this budget should be decreased a little but I also think it is important that we stay ahead of other countries in the investigation of space. More then 18,000 people work for NASA. Even though NASA has a few minor offices for testing the two main locations are in Orsino Florida and Houston Texas. I think NASA is very important. It is important that we explore outer space and our atmosphere to continue to see how things work in outer space. I also think it is important that we explore Mars and find more information about the planets. I think it is important for us to know what else is out there and to keep finding new things. photo credit Nasa / Goddard Space Flight Center / Reto Stöckli The head of NASA is Maj. Gen. Charles Frank Bolden, Jr. He was nominated by President Barack Obama and then confirmed by the US senate. NASA Who heads NASA? NASA was established July 29, 1958 NASA What are NASAS functions and goals? Although there have been numerous goals for NASA the main goal right now is to discover information about mars. Scientist are trying to find if there is life on mars, determine its climate and geology and prepare for human exploration. These goals are obtained by the making of a new spacecraft and technology to protect astronauts from radiation and other harmful hazards What is its purpose? Kyle Bruner

What Space Technology is "I believe that this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to Earth." - President Kennedy's Speech to Congress on May 25, 1961 The Apollo 11 mission landed in 1969. The crew included: Neil Armstrong, Commander Edwin E. Aldrin Jr., Lunar Module Pilot Michael Collins, Command Module Pilot A Presentation By Kiran Maltby Thanks for listening to my Presentation:) The National Aeronautics and Space Administration's headquarters building is located at 2 Independence Square in Washington, D.C. NASA has 10 field centers and various installations positioned across the United States. NASA has done a lot of good projects here are some of my favorites: The man on the moon The Hubble telescope The Mars Rover Curiosity Previously, the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) handled rocket research and other aerospace activities, but in 1957 the Soviet Union launched Sputnik, the world’s first artificial satellite, which made it apparent that the United States needed to focus its efforts in order to avoid being left behind in the space race. Space technology is technology developed by space science or the aerospace industry for use in spaceflight, satellites, or space exploration. Space technology includes spacecraft, satellites, space stations, and support infrastructure, equipment, and procedures. The man on the moon The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) is a space telescope that was launched into low Earth orbit in 1990, and remains in operation. ... Hubble's orbit outside the distortion of Earth's atmosphere allows it to take extremely high-resolution images, with substantially lower background light than ground-based telescopes. Brown spots mark Comet Shoemaker–Levy 9 impact sites on Jupiter's southern hemisphere. Imaged by Hubble. Where NASA is located Watch This Video On How NASA Landed Curiosity NASA stands for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. It is a government agency that was created by Congress in 1958. NASA's mission is to explore space and aeronautics, or flight research. The Hubble Space Telescope "Pillars of Creation" shows stars forming in the Eagle Nebula NASA Thanks to Curiosity, scientists found that ancient Mars likely had the right chemistry to support living microbes, according to NASA. By drilling into Martian rocks, the rover discovered what are believed to be the key ingredients for life -- carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, phosphorus and sulfur. What NASA Does

"We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard..." -John F. Kenndy. The United States has invested far too much money into space travel and would be better off investing that money into other programs. The United States has invested far too much money into space travel and would be better off investing that money into other programs. John F. Kennedy and Lyndon Johnson advocated for space travel and increased spending on the Apollo Missions. Instead of having the Government pay for everything, other private companies can design and engineer space shuttles backed by private investors. NASA was formed by Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1958. With the amount of money we have spent throughout the years, our country did not get a proper return on investment. It costs $450 million to launch each space shuttle, and as a country the United States has launched 130. With the new funds that are now free, we can spend that tax revenue on other pressing programs. B. Thompson, M. (2011, April 9). Space Exploration: At What Cost? : DNews.

Transcript: By John Crawford, Eli Schueneman, Hunter LaPrade, Jon Look This applies to the ISS because in space, matter is always going in and out of the human body. The astronauts need to be able to take some of the nutrients out of human waste and need to be able to dispose with the rest. The dispose of solid waste by sucking the liquid out of the waste, and then sending this for disposal on Earth. Astronauts use 3 gallons of water a day. Americans use around 35 gallons of water a day. They have plants such as algae to produce oxygen, while sucking up the CO2. Unlike Earth, A Space Station Has a much smaller system. It does not have a natural water cycle, and it does not have a natural oxygen cycle. They make there own water cycle by taking as much of the water back as possible. How Much Water Astronauts need to live on the ISS The Conservation of Matter states that matter can be never be created or destroyed. This was discovered by Antoine Lavoisier. He carried out experiments in which reactants were weighed before and after a chemical reaction. Finding no change in mass, he proposed it was true for every reactant. An Example of this is when a human dies it doesn't disappear it decomposes and goes into the Earth. Astronauts do this by having plants such as algae produce oxygen, while sucking up the CO2. Unlike Earth, A Space Station Has a much smaller system. It does not have a natural water cycle, and it does not have a natural oxygen cycle. They make there own water cycle by taking as much of the water back as possible. The Carbon, Water and Oxygen Cycle Continued The International Space Station The Conservation of Matter The Carbon, Water and Oxygen Cycle. How the Law of Conservation of Mass Applies to the ISS NASA uses a process called catalytic oxidation, a process that turns harmful chemicals into clean drinkable water. Water from bathing washing sweating urine and humidity is cleansed and removed of harmful chemicals. NASA generates oxygens using plants such as algae which generate high amounts of oxygen while sucking up lots of Co2 A space station like earth, is essentially a closed system.

Transcript: NASA History History Nasa was founded on July 29, 1958, and was crreated in response to Russia's 1st sattilite, Sputnik 1 The launch sparked fears amongst Americans that the Soviets could launch missiles capable of traveling from Europe to the U.S. Also the U.S prided itself on being at teh forefront of technology, so they quickly began developing a response which kicked off the start of the U.S-Soviet spacerace. Contributions Contributions Since we are driven to explore the unknown, we push the boundaries of our scientific and technical limits, and then push further as a society. The desire to explore and challenge the boundaries of what we know has provided benefits to our society for centuries. Exploration Exploration NASA has contributted to our knowledge of the Earth from satellites they send out and explorations they partake in For the People For the People Through the challenges in human space exploration we: Expand technology, Create new industries, Enlarge our creativity, And help foster a peaceful connection with other nations. Curiosity and exploration are vital to the human spirit and the challenge of going deeper into space will always be one of humanities most proud achievements. Purpose Purpose NASA's vision has been to reach for new haights and to reveal the unknown for the benefit of humankind For decades NASA has been trying to answer some basic questions. What's out there? How do we get there? What will we find? What can we learn there, or learn just by trying to get there, that will make life better here on Earth? Programs Programs Game Changing Development (GCD) identify and rapidly mature innovative/high impact capabilities and technologies NASA Innovative Advanced Concepts (NIAC) nurtures visionary ideas that could transform future NASA missions with the creation of breakthroughs such as radically better or entirely new aerospace architectures, systems, or missions
