The First satellite in Space, Sputnik.\nThe Moon Landing. First man on the moon.\nVoyager first satellite to exit solar system, Voyager.

Manned space flight!\nThe multiple innovations that had to be overcome was tremendous and involved many different engineering fields.\nThink of all the systems that have to work exactly so that man could make it to the moon?\nHey how about the millions of parts that have to work for the space shuttle!

Satellite technology has provided society with the following advantages:\n\n* World wide communication (TV, radio, amatuer radio, Internet, for example) enabling societies to better know one another.\n\n* Weather forecasting (for example, the NOAA weather satellites covering the USA), which saves many lives each year by warning people of major storms.\n\n* Spy satellites enable countries to know what their potential or real enemies are doing militarily. This could avert some war as in the Cuban missle crisis.\n\n* NASA satellites like the manned International Space Station enable various countries to work together on peaceful space projects, provide beautiful photos of earth, conduct science experiments without the influence of gravity, and discover the effects of weighlessness on humans in space (for missions to the moon and other planets).\n\n* NASA satellites like the Hubble Space Telescope, Swift, Chandra and SOHO missions  have enabled astronomers to discover new information about our solar system, the Milky Way, and other cosmological entities.\n\n* many others...\n\nHope this helps!

Well, you need to contact NASA to see if they have any clue.  It's definitely more than my small brain can count and my wide eyes can see.  \nAccording to NASA's website "there have been about 4000 launches (some with multiple payloads) and my guess is that several hundred of the satellites involved are still active. Nine individual countries have launched satellites (USA, Russia, Japan, China, France, India, Israel, Australia, UK) as well as international consortia (ESA, the European Space Agency, being the most important of those). A large number of countries have enough money and could easily acquire the technology to launch satellites, but choose for economy and convenience to either have another country launch their payloads or to participate in the space projects of other nations."

Go to NASA at http://www.nasa.gov/home/index.html?skipIntro=1 They have a ton of information about anything related to space

India has already taken giant strides in space technology. It has launched communication and remote sensing satellites which are operational. It has built excellent infrastructure in terms of launch facilities,test facilities,Research development organizations and excellent academic institutions. It has helped other countries in all such operations. Although Indian astronauts have flown with NASA it has not yet put astronauts in space on its own. Projects are at hand in this regard. India's priorities today are development of rural areas in terms of employment education and health as also agricultural growth which has go to 4% from the existing Hindu growth of 2%.The other thrust area is to boost manufacturing growth to 12% from the current9%. Hence not much attention/resources are presently allocated to space.It is only a matter of time when the dreams of founding fathers of space technology in India Pundit Nehru and Vikram Sarabhai will fully bear fruition when Indian space project to put astronauts in space on its own will become a reality.

A non-official website that deals with NASA related information is \n\nhttp://www.nasawatch.com/\n\nYou can learn alot there that you would not get from NASA itself.

Hi, \n \nSince you have asked "How", I would say the best place to start would be one of the text books. Thats because they always have things in the right sequence. \n\nAlso, you can find almost anything you want to learn about Space on internet. A good place to start would be \nhttp://www.answers.com/topic/space-science?method=6\n\nHere there are a lot of links. Also, any term that you don't understand can be easily researched, as links for terms are also given. \n\nDo not forget to use www.google.com, when in doubt.\n\nHappy Reading! \nAll the best.

The current International Space Station commander, Sergei Krikalev, has set a new record for the most cumulative time in space - logging a total of 748 days in orbit on Tuesday. His repeated exposure to the physical and psychological stresses of long-duration spaceflight ranks him among the most resilient space-farers in history.\n\nhttp://www.newscientist.com/article.ns?id=dn7852
