Creative Writing: Memories of our Life

So many began to believe this is true. Today, there is still talk of this "Moon Hoax". There are many things that one can say doesn't make sense about the whole idea of landing on the moon. Most astronauts that have landed on the moon have brought back samples of a type of Lunar rock. According to Dr. Sten Odenwald, we have accumulated at least 841.6 pounds of moon rock.. ?Moon Hoax?

The next mission was titled Galileo Millennium Mission which lasted till 2001. Europa and Io are the two main focuses of this mission but there were also studies done on the effect Jupiter’s radiation was having on the spacecraft. Unfortunately, Galileo began to run out of the fuel it needed to fine-tune its orbit and continue to have its antenna pointed the correct way to earth. Rather than taking the risk of losing control of the space craft and having it crash into the moon Europa, contaminating it, they decided to have it crash into Jupiter’s atmosphere in September of 2003.

This topic probably will not affect our generation, or the next few, but it is something that should be in the corner of our minds so it won't be much of a shock when it does happen that we send humans up to the Moon to live. "Mankind is drawn to the heavens for the same reason we were once drawn to unknown lands and across the open sea (Bush internet)." Life on the moon would be an expansion to human intelligence. It would literally broaden our horizons.

A Disillusioned Moon within Reach. On that day when “the enormous lunar disk no longer seemed the same as before: it had become much smaller, it kept contracting”(P. 12), and “the night poured a river of emptiness”(P. 12), Qfwfq then drowned “in dizziness and alarm”(P. 12). Into this landscape of sensual incandescence and out of a close community rife with steamy intrigue, Qfwfq cleverly arranged for Mrs. Vhd Vhd and himself to be left on the moon for a month. When crying out his wish: “I’ll be the one to stay with you for a month! Or rather, On you!

Some believed that the world would stay as it was in 1948, as many individual nations, and somewhere in the future we would drive cars through the air and live on the moon. Others feared that communism, totalitarianism, and socialism would spread throughout the world, and that everyone would suffer under these undesirable economic and political structures. It was on this basis that Nineteen Eighty-Four was written. George Orwell's idea of a totalitarian society is frighteningly realistic, and could easily have been construed as a possibility of what the world might have been like in 1984. In the 19th century many different visions of the future have entertained our society, been marketed, and teased the minds of millions.

She lingers my desires, Like to a step dame or a dowager Long withering out a young man’s revenue. Four days will quickly steep themselves in night. Four nights will quickly dream away the time. And then the moon, like to a silver bow New bent in heaven, shall behold the night Of our solemnities”(l.l.1-10). This is introduces the “moon” as symbolism and imagery, relating the moon to chastity and desire.

In 1957 the Sov... ... middle of paper ... ... in the Apollo program soon went down and because of this, Apollo 18, 19 and 20 were all cancelled. Advances in space travel occurred after this landing and NASA is looking to soon be traveling to Mars. Who knows what would have resulted if the Soviet Union put a man on the moon before the United States. 1968 was a tough year for all Americans and Apollo 11 boosted United States morale and helped many people get their minds off of the struggles of that past year. After a lot of failed attempts and a decade of research, the United States finally got a man on the moon.

Today, however, marked a moment in history, as Neil Armstrong was planning to land on the moon. I wouldn't miss it for the world (no pun intended). As I tampered with the television antenna, begging for some clarity, I heard a shout from Jeri-Marie. Considering how she rarely yells, I wasn't expecting it and nearly jumped out of my skin. "Mom, Glen's pulling my hair!

Though most people have heard about Comets and Asteroids many are unware of what they are and more significantly, their importance to life itself. Comets and asteroids are often described as small planets differentiating in sizes, some are baseball-sized meteors while some others are about one third the size of the moon. Other common terms used to describe them are rocky and icy bodies left over from the formation of the solar system. According to Don Yeomans from the Propulsion Lab, “Initially there was a great number of Comets and Asteroids, however, most of these bodies have either collided together and formed some of the major planets, were ejected from the inner solar system into the Oort cloud, or were ejected out of the solar system altogether.” Therefore, the Comets and Asteroids we see today are the residual population. One basic question to ask is why should we study Comets and Asteroids?

Technolo... ... middle of paper ... ...ng and all the other planets and the sun revolved around it. Look how crazy it is to think that now. It isn’t crazy because it is fact that earth isn’t the center. Technology and knowledge has brought us across great voids that we thought weren’t possible to attempt. We flew to the moon in 1969, but now we have the power to fly to Mars.
