Space Persuasive Speech
To humans, exploring and needing to know what is beyond the horizon is part of our nature. In July 2015, we watched the spacecraft, New Horizons, reach Pluto after nine years and three billion miles. As a result, we learned that Pluto is not just a giant ball of ice, but has a molten core just like Earth, and may have the right ingredients to possibly hold life. Although this sparked a possibility of life outside of earth; we should start exploring at our oceans first.

It is part of human nature to be curious about what is beyond our horizon. But before we see what's past it, we should find about what is right under it. Only about 10% of the ocean floor has been charted, much less than the dark side of the moon. The oceans play a humungous role in controlling the climate and once we discover how there will be an answer to the overheating climate. Organisms at the bottom of the ocean are said to hold cures for a wide array of diseases. An examination of the unique eyes of skate (ray fish) led to

Actually, there are very good reasons to stop spending billions of dollars on manned space missions, to explore space in ways that are safer and much less costly, and to grant much higher priority to other scientific and engineering mega-projects, the oceans in particular (Etzioni). The main cost comes from sending humans since they require food, safer equipment, and a way back home. We could save so much money by just sending rovers, which are traveling robots capable of being on certain planets, to Mars instead of people. This will not only be cheaper, but safer. This will allow more money to be used for ocean exploration. For example, a permanent partially-submerged sea exploration station, called the SeaOrbiter, is currently in development. As all these things are very true, we should still continue exploring both

    <br>Throughout the course of history, man has dreamed of stepping foot on another planet. The advances in technology in the 20th century have allowed man to do what at one time was considered unthinkable for millenniums before. With the advent of the modern space program in the early 1950's, NASA has performed many inconceivable feats. They have sent and returned men to space. They've set up space stations orbiting the earth. They have allowed men to land on the moon, collect samples, and then return to the earth. They have sent spacecraft to explore comets and other planets. They have even sent space probes outside the known walls of this solar system. Recently, NASA has been spending billions of dollars in researching our second nearest planet, Mars. In understanding the scientific importance that such research can mean, the United States is justified in spending this money on NASA space missions to Mars.…

    Would you like to travel into outer space or even go the moon? Many people dream of space travel, but you can 't just fly there in a jet plane. Jet engines work by using oxygen from the air to burn their fuel. And of course there is little or no oxygen in space depending on where you 're headed. Fuel cannot burn without oxygen. The only kind of engine that will work in space is called a rocket engine. This is because it carries its own oxygen supply. This is also where the National Aeronautics and Space Administration netter known as NASA come into play. I bet you were thinking to yourself, "Yes!" I would love to into space, but I bet you don 't know all the time, effort, and money that are put toward just one…

    Imagine that you trained all your life for that special moment of playing in your first NHL game. At the beginning of your first shift in the game suddenly another player’s stick comes up and strikes you in the eye. This incident ends your career. This could have been prevented if you wore a visor. I think visors should be mandatory in the NHL in order to improve a player’s safety. Statistics have proven players who wear visors in the NHL play less aggressive. There are many incidents involving sticks and pucks going into player’s faces. A recent incident occurred between Philadelphia’s Chris Pronger and Toronto’s Mikhail Grabovski. Furthermore, two years ago a former NHL player Brad May, Gave a speech supporting the use of visors.…

    PTSD or Post Traumatic Stress Disorder is a psychiatric disorder that can occur following the experience or witnessing of life-threatening events such as the military combat, natural disasters, terrorism incidents, or any major tragedy. This is common in the life of veterans and is the leading cause of suicide among veterans. A VA patient who survived in Baghdad shares his experience with PTSD and explains how he knew he had this disability. Many veterans speak out about this issue and describe their continuous anger, alcohol addiction, and constantly wanted to fight. They usually feel very isolated and distant from their loved ones. One patient states, “PTSD involves rocketing into extreme states of stress re-activity; in the form of terror, rage, and uncontrollable impulses, and plunging into equally extreme states of being shut-down—exhaustion, emotional numbing, despair, and dissociation”. PTSD is about having fear and anxiety, allowing veterans to rage with anger and different emotion. There are many factors to PTSD, which affects others in different ways; or example, using video games to keep them occupied, spending money due to the lack of impulse control because of changes in their brain, and even not obtaining another job.…
