Space agencies making moon suitable for human life

Could the lunar south pole support a human base?

European space agencies are to send the first aircrafts to an unexplored region of the south pole of the moon with the purpose of expanding human life and to prevent overpopulation in earth.
It will be a series of missions trying to make that part of the moon suitable for human life. They will send a probe that will dig deep into the moon's surface to try to find raw materials and water to make oxygen and fuel for human consumption.
The European lead scientist for the mission, Dr James Carpenter of the European Space Agency, explains why it is important to move human population and what they will try to do in the moon's surface.

1. Why do you think we should try to expand human life to other planets?

2. Do you think its a good idea for scientists to spend so much time and money to try to expand human life?

Why What You Learned in Preschool Is Crucial at Work

Today a machine can perform all types of jobs, occupations that require more social skills have grown much more than others. The skills that schools teach may need to change, our education system is supposes to educate in our skills, now computers help students in every subject. Children move from art projects to science experiments to the playground in small groups, and their most important skills are sharing and negotiating with others.
Jobs that require both socializing and thinking, especially mathematically, have fared best in employment and pay. The jobs that require social skills but not math skills have also grown; lawyers and child-care workers. The jobs that have been rapidly disappearing are those that require neither social nor math skills, like manual labor.
Learning math and science is not enough, character, dependability and perseverance are as important as computers in this days.  
Women seem to have taken particular advantage of the demand for social skills routine jobs has hit women harder than men. Yet women have more successfully transitioned into collaborative jobs like managers, doctors and professors. In the past, females traditionally excel at things like social perceptiveness, emotional intelligence and working with others.
In many universities, students are assigned to small groups to complete their work. So-called flipped classrooms assign video lectures before class and reserve class for discussion or group work. The idea is that traditional lectures involve too little interaction and can be done just as well online.
Students should be prepared for the actual world of work. Maybe high schools and colleges should evaluate students the way preschools do.


1. Why do you think that involve social skills are more prestige than others that are helped by machines?

2.Woman are more successful in social skills than man, give to examples of why is this?
