Space exploration helps us on earth in many ways as well as expand our knowledge
of the universe. New technologies are created as well as medicines to and further
cures to illnesses on earth. Jobs are created from this area and it inspires new
generations_to explore the sky above. Many innovations from space can even protect
earth from extinction level events likemeteors@trikin the planet. Much of the
research obtained was from NASA's official site so the data is reliable. Some of
it is

Satellites can also monitor asteroids to see if they will hit earth and if they
do, they can divert it. Space has thought of a satellite that might be able to
protect earth from t ese large rocks. Exploring space can help us find alternative
means of energy other than fossil fuels. The sun can be explored further so that
we might be able to(harnes)its solar energy more efficiently. Space exploration can
give us a perspective on the earth and that we need to protect it. We can monitor
greenhouse gases and try to reduce the effects of global warming. New technologies
are created from the exploration of space and we can learn more about the earth

and the universe aro nd us. We could the meaning of our

PARAGRAPH-4

An example of way space innovation can help protect earth is to redirect asteroids
from crashing into earth and causing devastating effects.
DART, the double asteroid redirection test, will be the first ever method
of trying to redirect an asteroid that is on its way to crash into earth. DART will
launch in 2021 and crash into asteroid 65803 Didymos' small moon in 2022. This
will change the orbital period of the moon by 4.2 minutes which means we will
be able to measure and record the effects on earth through telescopes. If this
works, it will tell us that a dangerous asteroid comes close to earth, we will be
able to redirect by a small collision.

PARAGRAPH-1
To find out why people have died, today's medical examiners perform autopsies. They
cut open the body and study its parts. Ancient Egyptians also performed autopsies
to help understand causes of death. In addition, autopsies helped ancient
Egyptians study the human body. By comparing the hearts of people who were
different ages, for example, Egyptians could determine what a young, healthy
heart was supposed to look like. The Egyptians not only studied the human body,
but they also kept detailed records of what they discovered. They wrote and drew
their observations on papyrus, a form of paper. The papyrus records became the
medical textbooks of that time. Their observations allowed Egyptian doctors to
share their knowledge, including how to treat various diseases.

PARAGRAPH-2

In 1862, an American named Edwin Smith purchased a medical papyrus in Luxor, Egypt.
Smith was not a medical expert, but he knew a lot about old documents. He knew
that what he had found was valuable. The papyrus turned out to be an ancient
textbook on surgery. The papyrus was probably written around 1600 BC, but it was
based on information from a thousand years before that. The papyrus presents
the information as case studies, including an analysis of how patients survived
or died.
