The peripheral nervous system is involved in both <u>voluntary and involuntary actions.</u>

Explanation:

The peripheral nervous system (PNS) is the neural system that resides outside the central nervous system (CNS). This contains nerves which in turn connect with the organs of the body like the sensory organs, glands, blood vessels, muscles etc with the central nervous system (CNS).

The PNS is divided into somatic and autonomic nervous systems.

The somatic nervous system contains sensory and motor nerve fibers which send sensory information and controls motor functions respectively. The voluntary movements of skin, skeletal muscles, bones, and joints are controlled by somatic PNS.

The autonomic nervous system composed of sympathetic, parasympathetic and enteric nervous systems controls the involuntary actions of smooth muscles of the internal visceral organs.

tester [92]
I believe the biggest space mission of the twenty-first century will be a manned mission to Mars, and the colonization that follows. This is the stated goal of several nations, companies, and individuals, all with considerably deep pockets. This mission will not only be a huge leap forward in space exploration, it will usher in a new era in human history in which the human race is an interplanetary civilization, a natural milestone as humanity continues to progress and advance. 

Significant challenges are many and overwhelming. In terms of getting to mars, we need efficient, powerful propulsion systems and a spaceship that can not only accommodate a full crew for a mission that would likely last years, but withstand the various hazards that a long trip through space and entrance into the Martian atmosphere will entail. In terms of colonization, significant challenges will include establishing efficient and frequent travel/transport between the planets, and in the longer term, the necessity to terraform the planet (make it more like Earth) so that humans can more easily live there.
