In 1609, Galileo modified a three-motor spyglass; Although Galileo did not invent the first telescope, his high-quality modifications were well known and very popular. His modifications helped clarify the idea that the Earth and planets revolve around the sun and not the other way around. This powerful, for its time, telescope also helped astronomers see that there was a vast universe with a myriad of stars just waiting to be discovered ("The First Telescopes"). Just as Columbus' discoveries of the new world inspired countries to explore the "new world", the American continent, there are countless new worlds in outer space waiting for humanity to discover them. With advances in technology and more knowledge, much more is possible. However, many do not find astronomy or space exploration important or necessary, calling it "propaganda designed to separate [one] from [their] taxes." The fact that there are other significant challenges to astronomy or any related study, such as funds, support, or disasters, may discourage people from continuing to support space exploration and astronomy (Pink). Although when it comes to the adventure of space and the resources acquired along the way, obstacles can become obsolete and new portals of information can be opened to humanity, inspiring new inventions and new minds, finding ways to understand planet Earth and ensuring humanity has a future in the universe. It is therefore important for humanity to have a foot in the door of the Universe. Astronomy and other space-related fields have always looked for new ways to advance, which can be attributed to Galileo improving the telescope and further back when the first humans looked. to the sky and I wonder.

"When enough people support a idea, they will find a way to make it a reality,” as demonstrated in the past by the Apollo missions and the discovery of new technologies (Moser and Spangenburg 99). how stagnant or impossible events may seem As long as there is a will, there will be a way But with space exploration, new information will inspire the human mind or the discovery of projects such as images of. Hubble which are presented to the public around the world and a new understanding of the Earth and how to preserve it will emerge, thus guaranteeing humanity a future in the universe, that is, if desired. to explore the last frontier does not disappear (Moser and Spangenburg 73).
