The science of rockets
Since the 1950s NASA has used atlas rockets to send probes into space. They consist of three stages atlas, centaur, and payload. The atlas stage uses fuel boosters the centaur stage uses liquid fuel engines and the payload releases from one another.
The space program
Nasa was formed in 1958 as a program that would set out on many projects. Three of their earliest projects were Gemiani, Murcury, and Apollo. Apollo 13 was launched on April 11 1970 and ended up going from smooth flight to an unsothing freight.
Exploring Space Today
A new discovery came in the form of a small robot called personal sattilite assistant. Has camera, light, motion sencer, range finder ect to go along with its video display.
Using space science on earth
Less and less money is going to the space program every year NASAs struggles barley add up to the countries economic problems.NASA counters all these problems with the rest of the countries with justification of space exploration.
