Sunday, July 20, marked 45 years since the United States put the first two astronauts safely on the moon. The cost for the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo programs was more than $25 billion at the time more like $110 billion in today’s world. The ensuing U.S. space efforts have cost an additional $196 billion for the shuttle and $50 billion for the space station. NASA’s total inflation-adjusted costs have been more than $900 billion since its creation in 1958 through 2014 (more than $16 billion per year). Looking back, have we gotten our money’s worth from the investment?

Paragraph of 8 lines explaining why berg winds are seen as being damaging to the economy?​
konstantin123 [22]

The Berg winds are winds that are forming in the plateaus deeper into the mainland. These winds move from the plateaus downwards towards the lowlands on the eastern coast of South Africa. The Berg winds are hot and dry winds and as they move they become even hooter because of the abiotic factors in the area.

These winds are very dangerous for the farming communities because they bring in very hot and dry weather with them. They dry out the soil and suck out every drop of moist out of it, and that combined with the hot weather they bring in is often devastating for the crops as they manage to destroy them, thus making a lot of damage for the farming communities that depend for their survival on those crops.
