Your assignment is to write a hypothetical letter to an elected official regarding funding for an
upcoming NASA mission. The term “mission” includes future space telescopes (like those
similar to the Hubble Space Telescope), solar system robotic probes (such as the rovers
currently on Mars), manned missions (such as the astronaut Moon landings), or other major
investigations.
● For this letter, you should presume that the federal government only has enough funding
to support a single mission, and you must make compelling science-based arguments
why your selected mission is most deserving.
In addition to your letter being written in an articulate, organized, and thoughtful manner, your
arguments must include the following:
1) a description of the mission capabilities and the expected data/information it will
gather.
2) a description of how this data will improve our understanding of the universe.
3) a description of why this improved understanding is an important and worthwhile
advance for humankind.
You may find information on future NASA missions at the following NASA websites:
https://www.nasa.gov/jet-propulsion-laboratory-future-missions/
https://www.nasa.gov/specials/orionfirstflight/ (You may need to use the down arrow on your
keyboard to scroll through this page.)
https://science.nasa.gov/science-missions/?internal-terms=4480 (Scroll down past the three
”Featured Missions” listed at the top and use the list of “All Science Missions.” Make sure the
filter “Mission Status - Future” is checked.)
The mission you select must be listed on the above three websites.
Your letter should be one page in length. Representatives receive many letters and emails
from their constituents. Therefore, the common advice is that your letter be concise and focus
on only one issue

Explanation:

b. The development of diseases in the sixteenth century would support the arguments of the “new generation of historians in the second paragraph because the “new generation of historians” would look at this in relation to european imperialism and see the impact of the european diseases like smallpox that would plague places like modern day united states because of the european immunity, but lack of native immunity.  

c. The “biological competition” contributed to the European imperialism in the Americas by creating a survival of the fittest environment where the europeans brought in diseases like smallpox that had plagued europe generations ago, but infected the native populations and weaken them in both their numbers and their strength, which enabled the Europeans to take control of the new world and develop a dominance while the natives were fighting a disease. This was “biological competition” because the Europeans' immunity was assisting them in fighting the natives' lack thereof.

In 1574, Akbar the emperor of the Subcontinent ordered his wazir to make a Katab-khana in the palace. This was to discover and reintroduce old texts. Books like Rajatarangini, Ramayana and Mahabharata were translated into different languages. One of these languages was Persian. After this many different old books both religious and non-religious were translated for the general public to read.

This was done to make different sects and religions stay united. His actions to a certain extent did eliminate disagreements between the people from different religions.

Abu'l-Fazl ibn Mubarak was not the person behind Akbar's policies. It was actually his favorite wife named Mariam-uz-Zamani. She was a Hindu by birth. She was born at the house of Raja Bharmal of Amber. Later, when she grew up she was married to Akber. This marriage had political benefits. Jahangir was her son. She, however, did not play any political role in the Mughal court.

A) Ethnic divisions hindered the development of land-based empires in the period 1450-1750. For example, the Manchu people in the Qing Dynasty in China sought to preserve their ethnic values while ruling China, which proved to be an obstacle for them to rule the vast majority of Han Chinese.

B) Ethnic divisions also hindered the development of maritime empires in the period 1450-1750. For example, the ethnic division between the French colonists and the Haitian people led to multiple Haitian rebellions and ultimately the Haitian Revolution against France.

C) Many land-based empires and maritime empires institutionalized hierarchical distinctions amongst different ethnic groups, often with the use of slavery. The European colonists, for instance, made African Americans the lowest class in American society by enslaving them. Similarly, Christians under Ottoman rule are recruited as janissaries. In both examples, the ruling class adopted policies that limit the social mobility of the ethnic groups that are alien to themselves.

In general, because of his numerous achievements, Akbar was awarded the epithet "the Great." The majority of Akbar's achievements military-related.
