Space & Space Research
The space research is scientific study carried out in outer space and by studying out space. The term includes scientific payloads at any altitude from deep space to low earth orbit, extended to include sounding rockets research in the upper atmosphere, and high altitude balloons. During the 'Big Bang' ,all of the space, time,matter and energy in the universe was created. This giant explosion hurled matter in all directions and caused space itself to expand the outer space is not completely empty. The universe cooled, the material in it combined to form galaxies, stars and planets. Our universe is 13.8 billion years old and believes that there is no end to space.
We know our solar system consists of star, the sun, and everything bound to it by gravity - the planets Mercury,Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune, dwarf planets such as Pluto, dozens of moons and millions of asteroids, comets and materiods. NASA, India space research organization, Roscosmos, JAXA, CNSA (China National space Administration).... are the world's famous space research organizations. According to the history of space exploration, on Oct.4,1947,the Soviets launched the first artificial satellite. Sputnik 1,into space. Four years later on April 12,1961,Russian, Yuri Gagarin become the first human to orbit Earth in Vostok 1. The first U.S satellite, explorer 1,went into orbit on January. 31,1958. In 1961 Alan Sheppard become the first American to fly into space. On Feb.20,1962,John Glenn's historic flight made him the first American to orbit Earth. " landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to Earth within a decade " was a national goal set by president John F. Kennedy .In 1961,on July 20,1969,astronaut Neil Armstrong took "one giant leap for man kind " as he stepped onto the moon. In 1980s ,satellite communications expanded to carry television programs and people were able to pick up the satellite signals on their home dish antennas. Satellites discovered an ozone hole over Antarctica, pinpointed forest fires and gave us the photographs of the nuclear power plant disaster at Chernobyl in 1986. Astronomical satellites found new stars and gave us a new view of the center of our galaxy.
The Indian space program began in 1962. In 1969 the Indian space Research Organization ( ISRO) was set up and headquartered in Bangalore for the purpose of rapid development of space technology and its application. Sensors and payloads are developed at the space application center in Ahmedabad. Launch vehicles are developed at the Vikram Sarabhai space center in Thiruvananthapuram .ISRO's first satellite, Aryabhata was launched by the Soviet union on April 19,1975 and Earth observation satellites as well as missions to the Moon (chandrayaan-1; 2008,chandrayaan-2 ;2019) and Mars ( Mars orbital mission, 2013) .India's first inter planetary mission, the Mars orbital spacecraft was launched successfully on November 5, 2013 .After, our country India become one of the four nations in the world to send space mission to planet Mars.
A wide variety of non-human have been launched into space, including monkeys,dogs, cats,tortoises, frogs and insects. The first animal made an orbital spaceflight around the Earth was the dog Laika , aboard the Soviet spacecraft Sputnik 2 on 3 November, 1957 . The space is so beautiful and full of wonder and there are somany things there that humans can't reach and can't find yet.
