gregori [183]3 years ago
7 0

Answer

1.The “space race” started in the 1950s after the Cold War turned the United States and Soviet Union into enemies. Both nations wanted to prove they had the best technology and ideology.

2.Sputnik, the first man-made object to enter Earth’s orbit in 1957, is the Russian word for traveler.

3.The US Army actually built the first American satellite in 1958 since NASA wasn’t formed until later that year.

4.President John F. Kennedy further ignited the space race in 1961, saying “I believe that this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the Moon and returning him safely to the Earth.”

5.Top Secret! From 1960 to 1972 in a reconnaissance project code-named Corona, the United States routinely photographed the Soviet Union from space.

6.Soviets launched 26-year-old Valentina Tereshkova into orbit on June 16th, 1963, making her the first woman ever in space. You go, girl!

7.Apollo 8 was the first manned space mission to orbit the moon in 1968.

8.This mission also photographed the first earthrise.

9.Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first men on the moon in 1969. Since then, 10 American men have also performed spacewalks. However, no one has returned to the moon since 1972.

Write one to three paragraphs explaining how inventors in the field of communication improve on each other’s earlier designs.
Anettt [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

El gran desarrollo tecnológico que se ha producido recientemente ha propiciado lo que algunos autores denominan la nueva 'revolución' social, con el desarrollo de "la sociedad de la información". Con ello, se desea hacer referencia a que la materia prima "la información" será el motor de esta nueva sociedad, y en torno a ella, surgirán profesiones y trabajos nuevos, o se readaptarán las profesiones existentes.

La dimensión social de las TIC se vislumbra atendiendo a la fuerza e influencia que tiene en los diferentes ámbitos y a las nuevas estructuras sociales que están emergiendo, produciéndose una interacción constante y bidireccional entre la tecnología y la sociedad. La influencia de la tecnología sobre la sociedad ha sido claramente explicitada por Kranzberg, en su ley sobre la relación entre tecnología y sociedad: 'La tecnología no es buena ni mala, ni tampoco neutral' (1985: 50), pero esta relación no debe entenderse como una relación fatalista y determinista, sino que a nuestro entender nos conduce a nuevas situaciones y planteamientos que deben llevarnos a través de la investigación y el análisis de sus efectos a tomar posiciones que marquen el camino y la dirección a seguir atendiendo a la sociedad que deseamos construir. Los valores que dinamicen la sociedad serán los mismos que orienten el uso de las tecnologías, Jose Luis Sampedro en Técnica y globalización (2002), realiza una reflexión en profundidad sobre la globalización y la tecnología incidiendo en esta idea sobre la importancia de orientar su utilización para lograr una sociedad más humana, justa e igualitaria.
