“Space exploration is not worth the cost” ?
Of course it is – if it hadn’t been for exploring outside our own little lump of earth in the solar system, we wouldn’t have Teflon (developed as part of the protection of the re-entry heat shield), Miniaturised computers and telecommunications, more accurate thermometers, improved treatment for brain cancer, more effective sunglasses, contributions from the space program have impacted the safety of airports, etc.
Yes – the cost is great, but so have been the benefits to human health and technology.

It is also essential that we know more about space and the dangers that are ‘out there’, from sun bursts, meteor showers, radiation belts, not to mention how extended periods of weightlessness affect the human body – vital information if we want to explore further into the galaxy.
AND, we are talking ONLY of exploring OUR solar system – when Earth becomes uninhabitable thanks to humankind, we will eventually need to ‘move’ so having somewhere nice to go to, might save the future of humanity.

So – to say that it’s not worth the cost to explore space, is like saying ‘there’s no point in saving the rain forest’ (where so many of our modern lifesaving drugs have been discovered), and without which the world with choke to death (it’s the world’s ‘lungs’ and is a vital producer of oxygen), which the proponents of ‘Not worth the cost’ might bear in mind if they wish to continue breathing and living among us.

Answer by Kaitlyn
After you wash your hair dont douse it in heavy chemicals. Find a light hair mixture that wont weigh down your skull. Like use i mouse instead of hair spray and just substitute the rest.
🙂

Answer by Tiffanyb17
I know there are these “hair masks” that you can use. Those are at any store in like a lotion bottle. They work ok, but I would go for something like a “Malibu treatment”. Thats not something you can do at home (for all I know..) but it works very well at getting build up out of your hair.

Question by Dad: have jayz and beyonce ever contributed to society?
I see them will all the millions and not doing anything. You can bring fresh water to 20,000 people with just 100,000 dollars. What have they done with their money???

Best answer:

Answer by BillieJean10
I’m sure they’ve done a lot of good things with their money but they don’t flaunt it. Also the press don’t like to show any good a celebrity does, Michael Jackson was always donating millions and helping countless charities and they rarely mentioned it. 🙂

Answer by ♥Little Mons†er♥™
Yes, they have contributed to society.
I’d have to get better informed of what they have done to say if can do more, but judging by the quick research i just made, they haven’t done much and they sure have a HELL LOT OF MONEY.
artists with less money do more that some of the wealthiest do, i guess they’re just selfish but they’ll get their karma
