QUESTIONS:

1. The invention of maritime technologies that allowed sailors to master treacherous and unfamiliar ocean environments is what really allowed for the Age of Exploration to occur. If you wanted to extend the Age of Exploration into outer space, what new space technology would need to be invented so that human beings could travel to other planets and solar systems? ~If I wanted to extend the Age of Exploration in the outer space, the new technology's that I would be a huge ship that would carry as much as 1,000 people because this would be an opportunity to have people go to other planets. I would also make a suit that would not have to be too much layers because usually, people in outer space cannot survive so instead of wearing heavy layers they would be able to go around lightly.

2. Think of some of the fears that existed amongst people during the 15 & 16th century when it came to sailing the open seas (monsters, boiling waters, falling off the edge of the Earth). Identify some of the fears that other people might have today if you had to convince them of traveling into the far reaches of outer space. What would you have to say or do to convince people that their fears are unwarranted and that they will be safe? ~Some fears that is have are things that have a possibility to happen, such as getting in a car crash, or in other words dying. To convince people that they would be safe, I would tell them to not think about their fears because there is a much bigger possibility of something happening if you think in a negative way,

3. Both Columbus and Magellan had a hard time finding someone to pay for their trips. If it wasn't for the Spanish monarchy, these men would never have been able to afford the financial cost of their adventures on their own. Finding someone to pay for your space expedition is going to be tricky too. Where would you go to gain the funding you need to pay for your space exploration trip? What would you say to the leaders of that nation to convince them of the benefits your expedition would have for their country? ~ To gain the funding to pay for the exploration trip, I would do whatever is takes such as working at many different type of places in order to get more money at a short a quick time. To the leaders of out nation, I would tell them that this expedition would benefit to us because we might be able to know if there are other living species outside of our world and we would also learn and see new things.
