NASA's beloved Orion made its first test flight on Friday and passed with flying colors. NASA has hoped this will take future astronauts to mars. Orion passed around the earth twice before landing in the Pacific Ocean Friday morning. There has been no space craft designed for human flight that has traveled this far since 1972 when Apollo 17 was launched. This successful test flight put optimism in the eyes of NASA's mission to take their human crew to space in 2021.
This was written by Jason Hanna and Amanda Barnett for CNN. This great information reminds us that just like when we launched Apollo 17 in 1972, the United States is constantly expanding our horizons and we're still making new magnificent advances in science. I have complete faith in NASA to successfully send their astronauts the farthest they've ever been when 2021 rolls along.
This is so awesome! I agree with you there, Hannah. I also have total faith that NASA will be able to send their crew to space in 2021.
ReplyDeleteI am excited and curious to see what NASA's future plans are once they are in space for 2021. Will they start that moon colony that Newt Gingrich was so persistent on creating?
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful! This technology could take us to amazing new things. It's so crazy to think about where we will be in 20 years. Technology is improving everyday and we are creating new things. I am very curious to see what will pan out in the years to come.
ReplyDeleteAh! That would be so amazing to see people land on another planet!
