International Space Station
• Programme between USA,USSR, Canada, Japan and EU…etc
• For global development and operation
• Test new technologies in the real space environment
Other Space Stations
• To prove that humans could live and work in space for a long period of time
• Expands our knowledge of solar astronomy
• Provides docking ports for modules to attach
Russia’s Mir Station
American’s Skylab
Mission to Mars
• Carried the Lander Beagle 2 to Mars
• Designed to take pictures and examine rocks and oil
Mars

Mission to Mars• both looking for
evidence that water was once on Mars
• To test if there is water on Mars
• Helps to analyze rocks on Mars
Benefit of Space Technology
• Providing updated information of space
• Searching for living creatures and resources on other planets
• Produces spin-off product
• Provides latest news and net work for weather forecast and telecommunication
Potential Threats of Space Technology
• Military purpose competition broke out between USA and USSR e.g, Cold War
• Nuclear missiles would be used as weapons in wars
• Space development add as a burden on economic growth
Looking Forward to the Future
• To continue to explore other planets• To build up satellite networks• To continue international co-operations
with other countries• Develops new resources and builds colonies
on other planets• Manned space flight would still remain the
most important program
Conclusion• Discuss the influence of space technology
in different areas
- Military
- Economics
- Politics
- Culture
DiscussionThe relationship between wars and space development is always controversial.
Expenditure of space development can become a burden on economic growth.
Some critics like to use space-race plans as their campaignsTo convince people to vote for them.
Films and fictions about space.
