My why should we spend money on space exploration?

Intro: We should spend money on space exploration because in two ways -by studying it from earth using powerful telescopes,and by launching spacecraft to get a closer view. P.1 The first pictures of the far side of the moon were sent back by the luna 3 space probe in october 1959.Apollo astronauts took three days to visit the moon.No space probe has ever came back from another planet. P.2 Each year, NASA celebrates one invention out of many spinoff technologies as the NASA Commercial Invention of the Year. A solar powered refrigerator designed to support life on the Moon, but with huge application on Earth, earned the prestigious title for 2011. With approximately 2 billion of Earth’s inhabitants without access to electricity, this technology developed at NASA’s Johnson Space Center will help us explore space as well as significantly improve the lives of so many on Earth. P.3 In reality both sides of the Moon see the same amount of sunlight however only one face of the Moon is ever seen from Earth. This is because the Moon rotates around on its own axis in exactly the same time it takes to orbit the Earth, meaning the same side is always facing the Earth. The side facing away from Earth has only been seen by the human eye from spacecraft. P.4 There are hundreds of facts about volcanoes and earthquakes,rivers and swamps,and climate and oceans.Countries of the world are all covered, along with hundreds of statistics about famous cities and well-known landmarks. P.5 In reality both sides of the Moon see the same amount of sunlight however only one face of the Moon is ever seen from Earth. This is because the Moon rotates around on its own axis in exactly the same time it takes to orbit the Earth, meaning the same side is always facing the Earth. The side facing away from Earth has only been seen by the human eye from spacecraft.
