SPACE RESEARCH
PROS

Through the exploration of space, we have the potential of discovering new resources such as minerals that can have a major impact on improving quality of life on Earth
CONS
exorbitant costs
-
Training and educating astronauts, building rockets and space shuttles, developing new technology for space missions — all of these cost a substantial amount of money.

SPACE TRAVEL
-
CONS
Travel into space is very dangerous and risky. (The space shuttle Challenger or Apollo are 2 examples)
Space junk is created by stuff we leave behind in space. Because there is no decomposition process in outer space, this stuff stays and floats around forever.
Stuff may fall out of space and may not totally burn up in the atmosphere and can cause damage when it lands on Earth and the radioactive parts can also contaminate our planet.
