Although space exploration is still a heavily debated topic, it is wrongfully believed to be a waste of resources; however, space exploration provides us with knowledge, technology development, competition, and peace. A spending money machine, space exploration, has been thrown into a negative light with other topics such as: abortion, prostitution, etc. Explorations into space coextensive with other types of exploration
during an exploration, but space exploration has benefitted the overall well being of human life rather than hurt human life from the beginning of explorations. Like any other, space exploration has its pros and cons; however, one pro of space exploration tends to benefit human life more than one con damages it.

be very dependent on my electronics, whether it be my laptop or my iPhone. Considering that most of my school work is completed using my laptop, I have no idea what I would do if I were to lose it. I believe the reason that I am so dependent on technology is because I have invested a lot of my time perfecting my usage of it that they have become a part of me. When I take a moment to think about this question I realize that it is not just me… This problem spreads to every college student, every class
Deoxyribonucleic acid profiling or just DNA profiling is technology that can be used to identify individuals by their DNA. The discovery of DNA profiling was in September 1984 by Alec Jeffrey, a geneticists from the University of Leicester in England, he was focusing to resolve immigration and paternity disputes. DNA profiling, known as STR analysis is very sensitive and only requires a few skin cells e.g. a line of hair, a drop of blood, a drop of saliva or the most common way, which is a fingerprint

electromagnetic fields to identify and track the locations of objects, animals, and most recently, humans. While implanting these devices in humans is a considerably large step for the development and improvement of modern technology, it has also become quite controversial. There are various pros and cons relative to the implantation of RFID devices in humans. Each standpoint can be supported with valid evidence explaining why or why not RFID
Discuss and highlight the pros and cons of adopting a TC and an ABC. Traditional Costing Pros Cons Easy and fast. Not so accurate Cheaper to implement Each time a unit of product is manufactured, it is assumed that cost is incurred. This assumption makes sense for certain direct costs. This assumption will not work for activities that are not performed directly on the product units. Aligns with GAAP The problem with this approach is that for most overhead activities, the proportions of the activity
