Is it necessary to discover space?

Space is immense. We studied it for thousands of years, but did not even know a small part of the mysteries that it hides, and what mysteries and discoveries lie ahead.

Humanity has made substantial progress in the study of outer space since the first manned flight into space in 1961. So, wondering is it important to study space, the answer is Yes. In the process of exploring space, we can always learn something new - for example, to find new stones and minerals to learn something new about planets, and even find out whether there is life in other galaxies. This question worries many scientists for millennia. There is already a device that is able to scan the surface of the large exoplanets such as Jupiter or Neptune, or as star called the Sun. Space telescope "Kepler" has for years been the observation of exoplanets, it helps to know the sizes of the satellites, and sometimes even approximate the situation on the planet. In order to study the atmosphere of exoplanets, scientists are using the space telescope "Hubble". Thanks to him, we can explore tens of atmospheres of exoplanets, and about six of them in great detail. It is impossible to study the atmosphere of such small planets like Earth, especially if they are very far away from us. But in a short time you should see a device called a "Starshade". This is a special screen that blocks the light of stars that the telescope could observe planets. This will help to explore the small planet without any interference. And this is only a small part of what scientists do, because to describe all their research is impossible.

Every day we stand on the threshold of the greatest discoveries, and this is the merit of mankind, that is why it is so important to study space.
