1. Discussion about the limits in speaking or usage of language on internet in South Korea. - I disagree that citizens should not have the law controlled. We have to acknowledge that we should not control all the laws.

**Assignment 1**

 * 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? - I think we should invent a machine that can plant plants and trees and gives the natural resources that is needed. If we put this machine in outer space or on a solar system we can have plants. It could be very complicated since no one tried to have plants and living organisms on other solar systems, but if we try planting organisms on other plants, we can someday develop by living or enjoying your vacation in other planets.
 * 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? - I wouldn't mind dying, but the rockets will be a waste. But it's worth of trying. I would convince others to travel far reaches of outer space. Before, going off for a ride on a rocket, I think we should first try to develop new rockets that can stand on high pressure. Also the scientists should be accurate of sending the rockets, since it will be lost of a money and lives if they do not succeed.
 * 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 - There would be at least one person who would believe in me, if I'm a trustworthy person. I would try to convince them that I will succeed and find aliens. But before even doing that, I'll try to study a lot.

**Assignment 2 **
 1. Would you volunteer for the mission? Yes or No? Why/Why not?

- Yes. I would like to volunteer for the mission. I want to find out if the alien is true. Also, it says that they made a new device that will be safer than nowadays one. I bet it would be much safer than people will think. Also, if I find the aliens and communicate with them, I would be the first person to communicate with the aliens.

2. What sort of people do you suppose would volunteer for this kind of mission?

- Brave and well-trained scientists. Especially smart people. This kind of mission is also very risky. I guess brave and adventurous people should go on this trip.

3. What, if anything could go wrong?

- If anything goes wrong, I would say last farewells to people and before I die, I will tell other what those aliens really are. Even though something goes wrong, I would still have my name to be realized.

4. What technological advances would have to occur before this could actually happen?

- The way to communicate with those aliens and how we can meet aliens. Also, how we can transport the stuff they use to investigate it here in Earth.

 * 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?- I would invent machines to able the growth of plants in space. This will improve, the whole space technology by allowing other planets to have the same conditions of Earth. We can travel to different solar systems and enjoy the planet's significance.
 * 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?- The 15 and 16th century people though that the Earth is not round, but a table shaped. This shows how much the people was afraid of new things and fear of what will happen when they try something new. We are also fearing to start the travel of reaching outer space, because it is new. Wouldn't you be afraid when you started something new, like playing your flute, or playing a new game.

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-I wouldn't really care.
