Who is Ed Dwight? What obstacles did he face during his career in NASA? How does he change or inspire people today?

English
1 answer:
Snowcat [4.5K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Dwight faced zero obstacles at NASA because he was never there, the story that he was selected as an astronaut and then blackballed is a modern myth without any reality. NASA never picked him,  based on non-racial reasons such as his test pilot class standing, on his expressed attitude that pilot skill wasn't important because he expected  the capsules to be entirely remote controlled from Earth, and on him being several inches too short to see out the window and safely fly the Apollo Lunar Module anyway, it had nothing to do with his skin color.

Explanation: Some stories are created and spread for political reasons, not for accuracy.

What question does the central or main ideas of a text answer for a reader?
kompoz [17]

Answer:Hope This Helps Have A Nice Day/Night :)

Explanation:

(1)The main idea is the central point or thought the author wants to communicate to readers. The main idea answers the question, “What does the author want me to know about the topic?” or “What is the author teaching me?” Often the author states the main idea in a single sentence.

(2) It is easy to identify a main idea that is directly expressed in the text. Main ideas are often found at the beginning of paragraphs. The first sentence often explains the subject being discussed in the passage. Main ideas are also found in the concluding sentences of a paragraph.
