Space exploration requires vast sums of money. Is the amount of money spent on space research justifiable?Could the money be better spent?

In recent years,we have heard and witnessed a lot of space exploration, satellite and similar messages.Generally speaking, how effective is this research or how does it benefit and harm humanity.

On the one hand, there is a growing interest in new places while people is increasing.But where do we get information about new places,planets,of course,with the help of launched satellites. There are many benefits of space exploration.For instance, research other planets,identify potential threats to us,study the existence of life on other planets from Earth.A lot of money is spent on proper space exploration, but this money justifies itself.For example, an asteroid, meteor or similar object approaching the Earth can be detected early and neutralized by a nuclear weapon in space.

On the other hand, the money spent on space exploration may not always pay off.In many cases, missiles can explode without reaching their destination, which has a very negative impact on the environment. Excessive rocket launches damage the ozone layer.At such times,it is possible to think that the money spent on this research should have been spent on science and society.

In short,as in all cases, there are many shortcomings and successes in this work.Spending too much money on research is also detrimental.
