The collage above highlights some of the terms you will read in “The Unseen Values.” Before we read the text, preview the collag
e and make a prediction. Choose a word in the collage that you find unusual. How do you think that word might relate to an essay about the American space program, written in 1960? Write a response in your journal.
I find the word 'boondoggle' unusual. Since 'boondoggle' means 'a useless or wasteful project', I'd predict that they wasted time on planning a project that didn't work or didn't seem to cohere to what they were trying to do. But relating to an essay about the American space program, I'd say that they use the term boondoggle because people might have thought that the American space program were wasting time on exploring space when they still have a lot to learn on earth.
