Science and Technology
Science and Technology in the 1970 was an era where space exploration and modern technology was barely flourishing. Back then we had space shuttles send from Earth to the moon and Mars. We might not know it, but those pictures taken then, are the pictures we see in our history books, posters, and in the internet.Since man when up on the moon, we have been developing even more machinery for space exploration. We have searched for different material that make up the planet, taken pictures or them, calculating it's size and distance from us, we have even been searching life on other planets. All the modern technology companies from now, such as Apple, and Microsoft were developed in this time period. Back then though, they developed machines that can do open an application many times slower than running an application on our modern laptops/computers. Apple developed its first computer, which consisted of no screen and it's shape was huge, and now apple computers have these nice and thin screens.They are very convenient to today's "techy" person. The only thing that hasn't changed throughout these years is our mission, to better the lifestyle of Earth's citizens, humans.
