Collis Mckenzie, Chapter 2, Question 5

The passage about how NASA had it easy struck me the most from the chapter. I feel like I've heard plenty of comments like his about how America still has people sleeping on the streets but is sending people to space for large amounts of time. I've never really thought about how these two concepts are so vastly different and it is almost impossible to compare the two. We have exact formulas and numbers to calculate when the sun is going to go down or the next time an eclipse will happen, but there aren't any hard and fast rules about human behavior. Humans can change constantly, and while predictions based on psychology and other factors can be made, we can not say for certain how someone would react to a product or situation or movement.
