Undergraduate / Health Science and Space exploration Paragraph- area of research study [3]
What are of research should not be funded and why?
Space exploration is the area of research that should not be funded for its ineffective use and the harm that it creates. From Galileo to E.T, humankind has always been obsessed with the universe. The question of whether or not extraterrestrial life exists continues to irritate us each day, causing billions and billions of dollars being spent on several space exploration programs. However, is this really necessary? Should the government be funding these innovative projects when over 10.8% Canadian are still under the poverty line? Does our fascination with space outweigh the life-threatening diseases that face us today? When the first human stepped on the surface of the moon, the famous phrase: "One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind" was coined. Yet, in my opinion, I do not see how our civilization has taken a "giant leap" over the past 40 years. The billions that were spent on this project could have gone to a much better initiative. No human has yet stepped on the bottom of the ocean, or been to the Earth's center core. Nevertheless, we are pushing to travel to another plant to explore a completely different environment. The space should be left as a mystery to mankind, a place of marvel and admiration. Instead of letting NASA tell us the name of every constellation, we should let our imagine do the job and appreciate the wonders of the great universe.
