Beyond Tang: The Hidden Benefits of the Space Program
• Technology developed for space program has often subsequently provided practical benefits to society.
• Such as:– Robotic surgery– telemedicine

Image Processing Image Processing
technology now used in CAT scans and MRI evolved from techniques originally developed for analyzing lunar and planetary images.

Highway Monitoring Monitoring of traffic
at multiple intersections and highways was developed from NASA Mission Control technology.

Communications Communication
satellites have revolutionized long-distance telephone communications.
Much of the cell phone technology has been derived from space program spinoffs.

Weather Satellites Weather satellites have dramatically
improved weather forecasts and severe weather predictions.

Miniaturization
Much of the technology which has led to smaller computers was derived from NASA’s need to reduce weight on space missions.

Issues related to Space Exploration
![Page 13: Space Exploration. Space exploration imposes new challenges on human systems and terrestrial life in general.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050901/5a4d1b437f8b9ab0599a273f/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
1. Ethical Issues
• Ethics = the set of moral principles and values that guide our actions and help us to decide what is right and what is wrong.
![Page 14: Space Exploration. Space exploration imposes new challenges on human systems and terrestrial life in general.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050901/5a4d1b437f8b9ab0599a273f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
• How do we ensure that space resources will be used to help all humankind, rather than just to provide an advantage for one country or another?
![Page 15: Space Exploration. Space exploration imposes new challenges on human systems and terrestrial life in general.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050901/5a4d1b437f8b9ab0599a273f/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• Do humans have the right to explore other environments around the solar system?
• Do humans have the right to take materials from other bodies in the solar system?

2. Environmental Issues
• How will space exploration affect Earth s ′natural systems?
• Who will be responsible for policing environmental impacts?
• Who is responsible for cleaning up any damage or debris caused by space exploration and development?

3. Political Issues
• Who owns space resources?• Should countries share technology and
resources?• Who should decide how space resources will
be used?• Space exploration is very expensive!• Sending humans into space is risky and
dangerous.
