There are a host of engineering problems that must be faced in order to safely transit astronauts to and from the moon. Key challenges include:

1. Takeoff
Generating enough force to escape Earth's gravity requires enormous energy.

2. Propulsion
Ensuring enough fuel is available to return to Earth.

3. Artificial Environment
Creating an artificial life support system for the occupants of the ship. This must supply oxygen, filter out surplus carbon dioxide, provide heating, radiation shielding and a perfect seal to protect the occupants from the cold vacuum of space.

4. Food and water
Ensuring enough supplies are packed to keep all the occupants alive during the multi-day trip.

Match each achievement to the correct scholar from the Islamic golden age. Avicenna Averroes Maimonides wrote about the ideas of
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

Avicenna > Greek philosophers & the Canon of Medicine

Averroes > ....?

Maimonides > study of the Jewish Torah

Explanation:

To start with Avicenna, he was a brilliant self-taught filosopher who admitted to have read <em>Metafysics </em>by Aristoteles a thousand times without understanding a single sentence, until he finally saw the (filosophical) light.

He also wrote the Canon of Medicine, a classic in Medicine, that was used in Europe (in Montpellier, France, to be precisely) as late as 1650. That is, some 600 years later.  

Maimonides was a Jewish Philosopher who wrote in the Arabic language (!). Remember that in those long-gone days of religious harmony in Spain (that was ruled by the Arabs) Cristians, Arabs and Jews lived happily together.

One of his books was on the Jewish Torah.  

Now, Averroes was a real genius (of the exact sciences), but also a bit too honest for this world. He right believed that only true filosophical logic could lead us to the real truth - finishing a thought that Socrates was developing and on which Immanuel Kant spend almost his entiry life.

Averroes got in trouble when he stated that the Koran and the Bible are alegoric stories for ignorant people...

Some people say he is the father of modern medicine; I would say he is the (ignored) father of wisdom.
