1. Would you volunteer for the mission? Yes or No? Yes

2. Why/Why not? Well one is basically, money! and space travel is just fascinating,

3. What sort of people do you suppose would volunteer for this kind of mission? People who are true patriots and the people who love to make new discoveries.

4. What would they have to gain? - the basic necessities and maybe some, high tech weapons. who knows what kind of nature the new race will be?

5. What, if anything could go wrong? - some problems with the ship in mid flight, and we all crash so we all die.

6. What technological advances would have to occur before this could actually happen? - maybe a ship that is highly well equipped to destroy enemy spacecrafts that have light speed to jump great distances in a very short amount of time, also the astronauts will have to be well prepared, in order to become used to the new technology.


 * 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?
 * 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?
 * 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

1. inventions like an atmosphere creator so the atmosphere is suitable for human beings. also water, food, and other basic necessities are in order so we can survive there, on the new planet. In case of hostile beings who may or may not occupy the planet, so we must have specialized killing weapons for defending ourselves.

2. people fear that they will be sucked up into a black hole or be shot down by alien space crafts but it has been scientifically proven that there are no other life forms on the planets close to us

3. I would go to the Russians, the Russians are kind of experts at space travel and with a little but of silver-tounging, about money, they will of course fund my trip, everyone likes money.
