The money spent by governments on space programmes would be better spent on vital public services such as schools and hospitals.
To what extent do you agree or disagree?
As the progress of high-tech, the governments subsidize growing amounts of money on space exploration. Some people think rather than wasting money on it, the authorities should invest more in public services. As far as I am concerned, space projects are taking an equally important role as public services.
Needless to say, there are plenty of apparent benefits of putting efforts on public services in our daily lives. Most of us receive compulsory education on campus and visit the doctors in the hospital whenever we suffer from the illness. Besides, we go to these facilities most likely by public transportation. The public services provide a certain standard of living quality for the member of society. And from citizen's points of view, they can observe easily that where and what their taxes are spent on.
On the other hand, it is definitely worthwhile to allocate the funds on space research, although it is thoroughly burning out money. Firstly, it is essential to the developed countries that not only being cutting-edge over the world but also demonstrating the power of the military in terms of self-defense. Secondly, some people might think the space programs seem to irrelevant to our life, in fact, it guardian us secretly. For example, we can be informed about the weather forecast and be secure under the surveillance of the satellites. Finally, the discoveries in the process of space missions might be applied in other fields, and consequently improve our current technology and provide a better future life.
In conclusion, as long as the governments allocate funds wisely, those two issues should be invested and perceived equally. (268words)
