Congress lost interest in planetary exploration. NASA's planetary exploration budget sank dramatically starting in 1977, and the Reagan administration threatened to terminate planetary exploration entirely. Th

Instead, their biggest fear is the terrifying rise of multi-drug resistant bacteria
this is true and a fear of inhabiting another planet that bacteria will evolve or we will contract new viruses that we won't have vaccinations for #aplang18

In fact, microbiologists in particular would disagree that climate change is the world’s #1 threat
Where did he get this information? Reliable source? but interesting #aplang18

bout 1.75 billion years, the Earth will leave the habitable zone and become a desiccated giant rock.
Earth is slowly leaving the habitable zone. Climate change problems are happening far faster than this one. #aplang18

Clothes and vehicle interiors are more fire resistant because of research after the Apollo fire. Weather forecasting is much more accurate because of satellite monitoring.
Although NASA has had failures, we can learn from them which make the efforts worthwhile to continue there research and exploration. #aplang18

one calcium loss has led to better understanding and treatment of osteoporos
NASA has benefited medicine as well as astronomy. All sciences are affected by the company. #aplang18

e have recently watched the World Cup matches from Brazil in near real-time via satellite feed. We can surf the Internet with laptop or tablet while flying in an airplane almost anywhere in the world. We are more connected than ever, both in our everyday activities and in emergency situations.
This is possibly the most appreciated and used benefit of NASA but is often forgotten about, we take it for granted that they constantly monitor the satellites. #aplang18

says that supporters of vaccines have a responsibility to protect the opposers, making them inferior in a way. #aplang18

Doctors and lawmakers blamed the outbreak on the increased number of parents choosing not to vaccinate their children
Strengthens the supporting argument by saying that authority (doctors) blamed those who oppose it. We are more likely to trust the doctors than the parents #aplang18

e vaccines are now from “descendant” cell lines independent of the original fetal tissue,
Supporters of vaccines give information about why the opposers have bad reasons to oppose it, hoping to sway audience. #aplang18

However, there is no evidence that exposure to vaccines containing thimerosal increases a child’s risk of developing ASD
the opposing argument is shut down #aplang18

benefits of vaccination outweigh any potential risks
the supporting side has a better argument
-
because they believe the risks associated with vaccination pose a greater threat than the disease targeted by the vaccine. Some people are uncomfortable introducing a foreign, biological element into a healthy body, especially one derived from a disease. Other people object to vaccinations on religious grounds.
why they oppose vaccines

because they believe the risks associated with vaccination pose a greater threat than the disease targeted by the vaccine
Why those oppose them
-
Despite consensus in the scientific community regarding the effectiveness of vaccines, some Americans remain skeptical about the safety of vaccines.

hen to say "that planet is habitable" is impossible, for the time-being at least.
conclusion: the question is it possible that another habitable planets exists can better be answered. #aplang18

is NASA's first mission capable of detecting Earth-size planets around stars like our sun.
My question has been unanswerable and may remain unanswered for many years, but there is new technology like the Kepler Space Telescope that advances our knowledge of it. It is the first step. Evidence from the research will send us in the right direction towards answering the question. #aplang18

"The discovery of Kepler-186f is a significant step toward finding worlds like our planet Earth,"
This scientist is confident that there are planets like earth, we just have yet to discover them. #aplang18

However, "being in the habitable zone does not mean we know this planet is habitable,"
Nay-say argument/ other side. May not answer my question at all #aplang18
