    Rhetorical Analysis: The Challenger

    In the early spring of 1986, The Challenger was scheduled to launch in the morning from the Kennedy Space Center. The Challenger had seven passengers. One of these passengers was a Christa McAuliffe, a social studies teacher from New Hampshire. She was the first ordinary citizen to be going to space. The social studies teacher had won the opportunity through NASA’s Teachers in space program. The spacecraft was in the air only seventy-three seconds before it exploded and broke apart into the ocean. Everyone was in shock. All the passengers were killed tragically. This put a horrible mark on NASA’s reputation. Some even wanted to close the exploration to space. American was in mourning and everyone felt the blow of the tragedy. However, President Ronald Reagan saw it fit to continue space exploration. He gave an argument and a tribute to America and the families of the lost passengers. His tribute swayed American to see the silver lining in the tragedy and understand why we must continue the journey to explore space.…

    Rhetorical Analysis Of President Reagan's Speech

    I choose this speech because I remember this tragedy and I currently live in the Space Coast of Florida where NASA is located, so it is of great interest to me. President Reagan gained the attention of the audience by foregoing the planned state of the union address and explaining he was only going to discuss the subject of the tragedy that occurred earlier that day only, helping to emphasize the severity of what occurred. The purpose of this speech was to show compassion to a nation that has great pride in the space program and to encourage those who might be feeling disheartened and discouraged about it all. He reminded us of the dangers of space exploration and the tremendous courage the crew possessed to take on the endeveor in spite of the risks and that we should all draw comfort from that, they knew what the possibilities were and for the sake of knowledge and the hopes of advancing technology they jumped in feet first and accepted these risks.…

    Nasa Space Shuttle Speech

    At this point in time, popularity in space exploration was at its peak. Any news dealing with current or future plans of going to space was being broadcast live for the world to see. The Challenger Space Shuttle was a new project NASA was attempting. They were sending a teacher into space and allowing her to present a school lesson while in space. “Because this was the ‘Teacher in Space’ flight, hundreds of thousands of school children were watching as the shuttle exploded (Stuckey).” This horrific scene for…

    Should NASA Continue To Be Public-Funded Essay

    In the early morning of February 1st, 2003, the US watched in horror as the Space Shuttle Columbia disintegrated over the blue Texas sky (Simberg). The wreckage of the ship and the remains of her seven crew members were strewn all across Texas and parts of Louisiana. Even the most staunch NASA believers contemplated their support for the agency as fire rained from the sky. It had been nearly 17 years since the last fatal disaster of the Challenger explosion, and this served as another frightening reminder that space travel still is not safe. The incident caused the question that everyone asked themselves that day: Is the journey of space travel and exploration worth the sacrifice of human lives? This line of thinking has ultimately lead to the debate over whether we, as American tax payers, should continue to fund NASA in its mission to explore and understand the universe. I propose that NASA is not only an important part of our government, but an absolute critical piece of our development as a human species.…

    Why Pluto shouldn't be a Planet

    In August 2006 the International Astronomical Union downgraded the status of Pluto to "dwarf planet." This means that from now on only the rocky worlds of the inner Solar System and the gas giants of the outer system will be “named”as “planets”. The “inner Solar System” is the region of space that is smaller than the radius of Jupiter’s orbit around the sun. It contains the asteroid belt as well as the terrestrial planets, Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. The “gas giants” of course are Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, and Uranus. So now we have eight planets instead of the nine we used to have.…
