Thesis for life in space

The question of whether the planet Mars had ever supported life remains unanswered to this day. It's frequently compared to earth, even sometimes being called "The Second Earth". Different missions have done samples and tests resulting in evidence that suggested mars having life on it. However they do not have quite enough evidence to fully back these statements up. In the near future, one could expect to see NASA launching plenty more missions to figure out the planets climate and geological features and how they change over time. In addition, in the coming years people will even be able to go to Mars, but to live. Foundations are raising money to put these projects into action and to finally somewhat conclude the question of life on Mars.

Quote

"Predictions for the future, with a few exceptions, have always underestimated the pace of technological process."

Final Paper

"If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face-for ever." This quote was from the novel/movie "1984" written by George Orwell. It portrays his vision and thoughts of the future and how he predicts it will be at some point in time. There are other ways in which his novels depict on what the future will consist of and what it will look like, such as in Animal Farm. However, there are other authors that can be compared to how Orwell see's the future and how they view it. The greek play writer Sophocles is an example of another author who's views of the future differ from Orwell's.

In Orwell's novel "1984", citizens live in a totalitarian society. He portrays a world where one person (Big Brother) controls everything. From what you eat, to what you wear, and what you do. One would be monitored throughout there whole day. From this novel, Orwell is giving a warning of what is to come in the near future. This is a taken as more of a warning than a prediction because he knew that sometime in the future this would become of our society. And the fact that he had written a novel about it was smart because in a way by reading this us as humans could prevent all that from happening. Orwell views the future as dull and consisting of pain and misery. Although society will be upheld, the people will be put through torture. This ties into his novel Animal Farm. The main theme of this novel was to not let power over rule everything. When Major died the animals were in need of a new leader. At first snowball was the fit leader for all the animals. However, Napoleon ran him out of the farm and there was no choice but to have him be the ruler. From then on the pigs started adapting to the human life and soon enough they become just like them. They had let all the power of taking care of the farm get to there heads. Thus the main theme of the novel being power. Orwell's view of the future from both of these books is that our society will become overpowered by one person and all of our lives will be monitored. Civilians will not have a say in anything they do. We will end up living in a totalitarian/dictatorship. He not so much predicting what will happen but warning us, we can change it so society doesn't end up like this.

While Orwell used his novels to portray what his view of the future was, Sophocles a greek play writer, views were determined by the oracles. In his play Oedipus, Sophocles uses oracles predictions to determine what will happen in the future. These predictions would not always be straight forward. Thats why the main theme for this was to just let it be. Don't try to change fate because it will end up just happening, Sophocles was more of predictions than warnings. Every prediction that was said came true. In the play Oedipus, Oedipus is told by the oracle that he will end up marrying his mother and murdering his father. In order to prevent this from happening he moves away from home and all the people. In the end the prophecy had come true. The Biggest thing that differs from Orwell's view and Sophocles view of the future is one is driven by just their own mind and the other is driven by the Gods and what they predict. However, some similarities between them are that there predictions/warnings had somewhat come true and they both were in there own way tragedies.      

The view of the future can be seen in so many ways through many eyes. Whether its an author, artist, or even a religious figure. Orwell suggests that sometime in the near future we will go through what he has portrayed in his novel's "Animal Farm" and "1984", which would be a world where power corrupts everyone and the laws are unfair. He is giving us more of a warning than a prediction. Whereas Sophocles uses the predictions of the oracles in his plays to portray the events that will happen in the future, like in Oedipus.

Summary of New Atlantis

The novel “The New Atlantis” was written by Sir Francis Bacon in about 1623. This was a utopian novel that portrayed a vision of the future of human discovery and knowledge. The book starts out with this European crew that’s sailing from Peru to the south sea. While on their voyage they get lost and come across this island and decide to check it out. In this point of the novel, Bacon introduces a mythical island, Bensalem, which is far advanced in the scientific and technological world. The inhabitants are expressed as generous and delighting, welcoming any to their land. The most important structure on Bensalem is Solomon’s house. This is an institution that undertook all the sciences and technology. Plenty of researches in the applied and pure sciences are done in this institution that would only better humankind like new medicines, ideas for technology, and so on. I think Sir Francis Bacon write this novel because he wanted to express what he might have been thinking at this time about the sciences and technology. He had predicted things that have already happened in today’s world. Sometimes when you have such creative thoughts it’s good to express through writing, maybe he wasn’t even trying to predict anything. So in my opinion, he’s expressing what could be how the future in science and technology will advance, or creatively speaking it could have been just a thought of nonsense. Because at that time nobody thought such things were possible.
