TPO52IntegratedTask-Asteroids are large space objects made of rock and ice. There are hundreds of thousands of asteroids in our solar system. Though we often hear ideas about establishing colonies of humans to live and work on our Moon or our neighboring planet, Mars, some think that sending people to an asteroid would actually be the best colonization option for a number of reasons. Low Gravity To begin with, asteroids are often much smaller than planets, so they have lower gravity. When landing a spaceship, the craft would not be pulled as strongly or as forcefully toward the asteroid's surface, making the landing safer than landing on the Moon or Mars; it would also allow a spacecraft to carry much more equipment needed to set up the colony. It would also be easier for the spacecraft to take off again, so the spaceship would need to carry considerably less fuel for the trip back to Earth. Mining Valuable Metals Next some asteroids are rich in valuable elements and precious metals that are relatively rare on Earth, such as gold and platinum. An asteroid colony would be extremely profitable and a good source of these raw materials. The colonists or businesses sponsoring them could more than pay for the cost of their support by mining minerals and sending them back to Earth. Easy to Reach Finally, asteroids are a good option for colonization because some of them would be very easy to reach. There are a number of asteroids that periodically come within or near Earth's orbit Some of them actually get closer to Earth than our Moon. So these asteroids would be much easier and more affordable to get to and get back from than a planet like Mars, which would require a two-year trip in each direction.
The reading and lecture both talk about asteroids, which is determining a profitable source for the planet. On the other hand, the speaker rejects all claims and casts doubt upon them.
First, the written text claims that due to low gravity and the small size of asteroids, it would be easy to provide the equipment needed to set up the colony. In addition, it states that it needs less fuel for the trip back to Earth. In contrast, the orator opposes, saying that low gravity also presents certain risks and people start to losing muscle mass and bone density. So, they would be suffering from health problems.
Second, from the author's point of view, there is a possibility of mining extraction facilities and states asteroids might be profitable. The monologue rebuts the claiming that it is not profitable of mining minerals. Since, the cost of supporting a colony is high and no profit, also there won't be any guarantee to sell by lowering profit.
Finally, the author claims that for reaching on them, people need just a short time because they come close to the earth even closer that moon. In contrast, the professor is of the opinion that the distances are varied between the year and year. it might be easy to go there, but the earth is not readily accessible when they want to come back. As a matter of fact, orbiting around the sun become different at this time. therefore, the time to come back to earth is not getting shorter.
