The United States has publicly funded its human spaceflight program on a continuous basis for more than a half-century, through three wars and a half-dozen recessions, from the early Mercury and Gemini suborbital and Earth orbital missions, to the lunar landings, and thence to the first reusable winged crewed spaceplane that the United States operated for three decades. Today the United States is the major partner in a massive orbital facility - the International Space Station - that is becoming the focal point for the first tentative steps in commercial cargo and crewed orbital space flights. And yet, the long-term future of human spaceflight beyond this project is unclear. Pronouncements by multiple presidents of bold new ventures by Americans to the Moon, to Mars, and to an asteroid in its native orbit, have not been matched by the same commitment that accompanied President Kennedy\'s now fabled 1961 speech-namely, the substantial increase in NASA funding needed to make it happen. Are we still committed to advancing human spaceflight? What should a long-term goal be, and what does the United States need to do to achieve it? Pathways to Exploration explores the case for advancing this endeavor, drawing on the history of rationales for human spaceflight, examining the attitudes of stakeholders and the public, and carefully assessing the technical and fiscal realities. This report recommends maintaining the long-term focus on Mars as the horizon goal for human space exploration. With this goal in mind, the report considers funding levels necessary to maintain a robust tempo of execution, current research and exploration projects and the time/resources needed to continue them, and international cooperation that could contribute to the achievement of spaceflight to Mars. According to Pathways to Exploration, a successful U.S. program would require sustained national commitment and a budget that increases by more than the rate of inflation. In reviving a U.S. human exploration program capable of answering the enduring questions about humanity's destiny beyond our tiny blue planet, the nation will need to grapple with the attitudinal and fiscal realities of the nation today while staying true to a small but crucial set of fundamental principles for the conduct of exploration of the endless frontier. The recommendations of Pathways to Exploration provide a clear map toward a human spaceflight program that inspires students and citizens by furthering human exploration and discovery, while taking into account the long-term commitment necessary to achieve this goal.

This document communicates NASA’s strategy and progress to learn about the Red Planet, to inform us more about our Earth’s past and future, and may help answer whether life exists beyond our home planet. Together with NASA’s partners in academia and commercial enterprises, NASA’s vision is to pioneer Mars and answer some of humanity’s fundamental questions: • Was Mars home to microbial life? Is it today? • Could it be a safe home for humans one day? • What can it teach us about life elsewhere in the cosmos or how life began on Earth? • What can it teach us about Earth’s past, present, and future?

This book presents the most serious and comprehensive study, by far, of American public perceptions about the meaning of space exploration, analyzing vast troves of questionnaire data collected by many researchers and polling firms over a span of six decades and anchored in influential social science theories. It doesn't simply report the percentages who held various opinions, but employs sophisticated statistical techniques to answer profound questions and achieve fresh discoveries. Both the Bush and the Obama administrations have cut back severely on fundamental research in space science and engineering. Understanding better what space exploration means for citizens can contribute to charting a feasible but progressive course. Since the end of the Space Race between the US and the USSR, social scientists have almost completely ignored space exploration as a topic for serious analysis and this book seeks to revive that kind of contribution. The author communicates the insights in a lucid style, not only intelligible but interesting to readers from a variety of backgrounds.

This book examines the U.S. space program’s triumphs and failures in order to assess what constitutes a successful space policy. Using NASA and the space industry’s complex history as a guide, it draws global lessons about space missions and the trends we can expect from different nations in the next decade and beyond. Space exploration has become increasingly dependent on cooperation between countries as well as the involvement of private enterprise. This book thus addresses issues such as: Given their tenuous history, can rival countries work together? Can private enterprise fill NASA’s shoes and provide the same expertise and safety standards? Written by a former NASA Aerodynamics Officer at Houston Mission Control working on the Space Shuttle program, the second edition of this book provides updated information on U.S. space policy, including the new strategy to return to the Moon prior to traveling to Mars. Additionally, it takes a look at the formation of the Space Force as a military unit, as well as the latest developments in private industry. Overall, it is a thought-provoking resource for both space industry professionals and space enthusiasts.

What are the difficulties to carrying on experimenting space resource exploration and how which influence human life? As long space flight experience and as for the cost, it will spend more human life experience to prepare our further space exploration mission. For example, US space exploration implementing will reduce some welfare to give whose country's citizen, due to it needs much money to be attributed to carrying on experimenting different aspects of space exploratins in the future. Because space exploration needs time, cost expenditure and research to achieve every space mission successfully. Thus, the space exploration country will reduce t o spend citizen's welfares, instead of spending space exploration expenditure every year. Moreoveer, if any space exploration experiment needs long time to implement, the country citizen's welfare will also reduce too much to prepare to spend space exploration. It is unfair to any one of these space exploration country citizen's welfares to be reduced.However, of the consequences of the space exploration for our future, for the development of human activities, for innovation knowledge as well as for the prospects of peaceful international cooperation and for an education for youth optimism . I feel space knowledge pursue that is worth to reduce the space exploration country citizen' welfares to act to achieve any impossible and unfound space exploration missions., such as Mars planet space exploration mission. Human will have chance to live in Mars planet, even enjoy to use its natural resource possibly, e.g. soil, water, air, wind, gas, oil, energy if space scientists could prove this Mars planet was a planet, which is such as earth to be one suitable planet to let human to live. Thus, US country will decide to reduce UK citizen welfare to further develop Mars planet space resource explortion mission.However, the fundsmental goal of this mission is to advance US scientific, security and economic interests through this robust Mars planet space exploration program. Such as, implementing a sustained and affordable human and robotic program to explore the solar system and beyond, extending human presence across the solar system starting with a human return to the moon by the year 2020 year, in preparation to human exploration of Mars and other destinations, developing the innovative technologies and knowledge both to explore and to support decision about the destinations for human exploration and in exploration . To further US scientific, security and economic interests.Mars and other destinations include conducting robotic exploration of Mars to search for evidence of life to understand the history of the solar system and to prepare for duture human exploration, conducting robotic exploration across the solar system for scientific purpose and to support human exploration.In particular, exploring moon, asteroids and other bodies to search for evidence of life to understand the history of the solar system and to search for resources, conducting advanced telescope searchs for. Earth likes planets and habitable environments around other stars, developing and demonstrating power generation, propulsion, life support and other key capabilities required to support more distant, more capable and/or longer duration human and robotic exploration of Mars, and other destinations and conducting human experience to Mars after acquiring adequate knowledge about the planet using robotic missions and after successfully demonstrating sustained human exploration missions to the moon. Thusm it seems Mar and other destinations will be further space exploration major missions.

During 1988, the National Research Council's Space Science Board reorganized itself to more effectively address NASA's advisory needs. The Board's scope was broadened: it was renamed the Space Studies Board and, among other new initiatives, the Committee on Human Exploration was created. The new committee was intended to focus on the scientific aspects of human exploration programs, rather than engineering issues. Their research led to three reports: Scientific Prerequisites for the Human Exploration of Space published in 1993, Scientific Opportunities in the Human Exploration of Space published in 1994, and Science Management in the Human Exploration of Space published in 1997. These three reports are collected and reprinted in this volume in their entirety as originally published.
