Humankind has always been full of curiosity about outer space as well as existence of extraterrestrial life. Since the dawn of civilization mankind has been trying to find a convincing answer to these questions.

Our planet is the only one in this vast galaxy where life exists. This is a popular belief yet scientists are not convinced that this is true. They need proof, and for them a thorough search of outer space is the only way to prove or deny the existence of life on other planets. At the same time, many other technological advancements have been the result of research done in the field of space exploration. Research done for radar technology led to the invention of microwave oven that has become a household appliance these days.

Space exploration is very expensive , and when there are other pressing issues to deal with, it seems a waste of resources. This is the case when developing countries like India spends billions of dollars on projects like Mission Mars when their healthcare system is crumbling and in a poor state. Invention of a supersonic spaceship is not a wise thing when people are dying of malnutrition and other diseases that can be prevented by affordable medicines.
