Is it worth the cost

In my opinion I think it is worth the cost because of several reasons.My first reason is that after earth π gets destroyed because of whatever reason , we will not have any place to go to and because of our research right now we may have found a planet that we can go to.Another reason is that we may discover new planets and maybe even life that can make life on earth more interesting and with the life that we may have found scientists can make more complicated medicine which will help humans.On the other side I think maybe it's not worth the cost because what happens if we do not discover new things and then it will be a waste and we would have spent a lot of money.

I strongly believe that we should have exploration into our universe to possibly find some sort of creature that doesn't live on earth. if we were to find something like this, our country could become rich and overall a better country.
Another reason to make a space exploration is that if we were to find something with tons of rare materials in, we could mine it and take it back to earth and this can also lead to important needs to our country. there have even been conversations about the first person to mine an asteroid would be the first trillionare.
Overall i believe we should make an exploration at any cost because chances are we will be back with more money than we spent.

I think we should stop sending money on space and we should help people in need

No its not worth the cost.Don't we have enough to worry about.
21 Nov 2019
no it is not

No it is not some people can't even pay for a piece of bread

I strongly disagree because we alredey have a planet to be on, why do we need another one? I know there are benefits in space such as artificial limbs and CAT scan technology but there is such risk with space travel.

I totally agree climate change is a big problem and we should put that first

I also agree with you because there is a huge new world for us to explore and another is we could find medicine up in space and even the cure to canser this is one way of linking opinions of the 2 sides do that we can agree on wether it is worth th cost or is not I hope you will consider my reasons and think it is worth the price

I don't agree because it's about a million pounds just to go up to space for 90 minutes. 90 minutes! That's a football game and that costs way less than just going to space to have fun. Secondly, who would want to pay that much money because with that amount of money, you could help homeless people and give them money or you could give it to charity or give to hospital so people can stop dying because of cancer. You'll always have the chance to go to space but you don't always have the chance to save people's. To rap it up I've got one more question for you. What do you care about more, Space or People

No because people will probably want to have better experience in life and the USA will just HOG all the asteroids and get even more money. LET ALL PLANETS GO TO SPACE FOR FREE.

I don't agree because it is Β£52 million ($67 million) and instead you could help the homeless who could be getting really ill and can't afford to go to a hospital.

I meant country's

I don't think that space is worth the cost because it is Β£52million and you could be spending that money on things you actually need. And also only rich people would be able to go up to space and it's not fair.
I also think that it is a good idea because if an astroid was soon to hit the earth you could prepare for it and you could move to another planet so you wouldn't get exstinct like the dinasaures.

I think that it is worth spending money because we can have more things and more to experiment on

In my opinion, it is not worth the money. Finding new planets and forms of life may be interesting and helpful in the future but the cost of space travel is unacceptable. If we do want to explore space, we should decrease the amount of money that is currently being spent for space travel.

I think NASA is worth it because if you represent the US's budget as 100 pence Nasa gets one half of one penny and if NASA gets shut down jobs will be lost. In 11 years (at the rate we are going) climate change will be irreversible so if it comes down to the finest wire and NASA is not there we might not have the equipment to try and save ourselves. On the other hand private space industries like SpaceX and Virgin Galactic might have more money than NASA because the government of the US will have lots of things to do and might not or might not want to invest in NASA whereas private industries can do what ever they like as they are not government-owned.

I think nasa is worth it

People in India are suffering as they don't have many nutritious foods,they are suffering so astronauts can go into space and it isn't really worth it is it ?? Can't be fair on them . The US spend millions each year on trips to space ,probably more than us on Earth π.

I disagree with your first point because we always have a second chance to make a big diffrence.

For me it is 50/50 because it costs a lot but then people can have the chance to explore space.
10 Dec 2019
Thank you that helped me with work ps keep going
10 Dec 2019
So thank you so much for this information about this subject I like how you were 50/50 on both of the costs ππ
