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 claims that some sientists think that sending people to an asteroid is one of the perfect clonization option. The author elaborates his viewpoints by providing three main reasons. Nevertheless, the professor believes that it is not practical sullotion since each of the author's reasons has a serious down-side.
First, the reading asserts that asteroids have much lower gravity which make them safity landing area. In addition more equipments and less fuel could carry with spacecrats on them. However, the professor refutes this concept by stating that low gravity also increase some health risks for human, like, lose muscle mass. Also, he states that astronats whom only lived a few months in the low gravity area, suffer from significant health problem like low density body structure.
Furthermore, the article avers that most of asteroids are rich in valuable elements like, gold, and platinum which make them profitabale to colonization on them. On the other hand, the lecturer brings up the fact that although it is easy to obtain such elements, but cost of the colony and transporting elements whould increase their total price considerably. In addition, he mentioned that these high costs of golds are becuase of the rare character of them; hence, by offering more of them to the market, their price will decrease considerably.
Finally, the article posits that some of the asteroids would become very near to the earth which make it easy to land on them. Contrary, the lecturer casts doubt on this claim by stating that whereas it is really easy to land on them but returning from them is hard since they have unusual orbit patterns which come near to the earth and after a while, go far far away from the earth and make it impossible or unprofitable to returning.
