It is better for governments to spend their funds on the exploration of outer space than on earthly matters. Do you agree or disagree? Use specific reasons and details to support your answer. |
There is an argument among people over whether it is beneficial to spend more money for exploration of outer space. Some people argue that investing for exploration of universe is very important to understand many scientific factors. However, my view is different for following reasons: other pressing matters in the Earth and not enough knowledge about the Earth.
To begin with, governments should spend their funds on the other matters without exploration of outer space. In general, there are many matters we faced now in the Earth such as pollution, extinct endangered species, lack of resources, and global warming. Moreover, these matters make our habits more difficult to live. Hence, we should focus on these matter by efforts and investing over many researches to solve the problems. Furthermore, many experts state that solving these matters is pressing compared with exploring outer space. In addition, knowing universe is too vague for us, so to explore this space, we need more time to prepare, but we don't have enough time. Therefore, it is first to solve problems faced to us.
As to the second, there are many mysteries about the Earth. We can't prevent many environmental disastors such as earthquake, diseases, volcano eruption, and so on. Moreover, we don't have enough knowledges over the Earth what there is in the deep sea, and inside of the Earth. To illustrate, according to research done by department of seoul national university in 2006 of Korea, 85% experts answered that it is more helpful for human to explore over the Earth because Earth has many potential. Furthermore, they stated that research of the Earth is cheaper than exploring universe so they maintained that it should be first to examine about Earth. On the other hand, only 10% experts answered that understanding outer space can add us more knowledges about organism's process. In this regard, knowing over the Earth is more important than exploring universe.
To conclude, many governments should solve over the Earth problems and mysteries by investment before exploring outer space in terms of pressing matters and lack of knowledges about the Earth. |
