The Greenland Problem
The United States government wants to annex Greenland. But why? There are three major reasons that our President wants Greenland, and three major reasons why he can’t have it. The international issue with Greenland is geography-based: Russia is very close to it. Looking down on the map from the Arctic Circle, Greenland is shockingly near Russia.

Artemis II Overview
Not since 50 years ago has NASA sent an astronaut crew to the moon. However, in 2026, Artemis II is expected to fly four astronauts in an orbit of the moon, making this mission the farthest humans have been away from Earth. One overlying reason for this mission is to test the capabilities of Orion, the spacecraft that the astronauts will reside in throughout the estimated ten days of the mission.

Is There Life on Mars?
Are we alone? The question has always stood upon the face of humanity. Until recently, we have never been able to answer the question; however, recent scientific discoveries have made the answer to this question less inconclusive. Over four billion years ago, when the solar system was in its early stages of forming, Earth and Mars did not look too different from each other.
