Investing in space exploration will depend on the amount the country willing to invest. A developing nation should not invest any resources on space exploration, because there are more relevant concerns before spending assets on the space. However, a developed country could spend money on space exploration without hesitation.

As awareness of political challenges grows, developing countries should not invest any money on space exploration. Usually, nations of less wealth are facing significant challenges such as overpopulation, lack of education with high rates of illiterate citizens, low access to healthcare, drinking water, basic medicines are in short supply, general types of pollution, crime and other issues. Under those circumstances, developing nations should give priority to their individual’s protection before preparing any financial budget to invest in space exploration.

On the other hand, as awareness of the advantages of space exploration exists, developed countries should invest in space exploration. Therefore, it’s not surprising that more and more people believe developed nations should increase donations worldwide to less privileged nations. That being said, the reality is that thanks to the investment in space exploration, nowadays we have technological devices well updated, which are being used on a daily basis. For instance, the space exploration satellites were invented. Satellites are the perfect epitome to underline all the advantages of space research. This is because under satellites invention we obtained weather forecasting more accurate, GPS which is a world-famous system to locate places was created and works based on satellites, communication, in general, has improved thanks to satellites, people have access to a long range of television and, to mention a few more internet, robotics, digital photography, videos and other technological devices have been highly updated with satellites.

Worldwide, we would never be extremely technologically advanced without the intervention of satellites, mainly created for space exploration processes. In addition to this, It is often believed that regardless of the nation (developed or developing) governments should not invest in space exploration, because numerous amount of poorer nations are dealing with significant problems. However, I truly believe every nation should be responsible for their masses and, nations with financial power should keep investing in space engineering. Without organizations such as NASA working day by day to give far-reaching results, we wouldn’t be living in a world that is showing progress in technology every single year.

In conclusion, the developed countries should invest in space exploration. Organizations like NASA are the eyes of the planet Earth and without space exploration inventions, no one around the globe would have access to several devices that are helpful and keep us connected. On the contrary, developing countries should not create any financial support budget for space exploration, because poorer nations have significant issues with more priority.
