Abstract

People have been trying to go further into space but failed to do so, only going so far to the moon as human beings. With just robots, humans were able to send it to Mars. Due to limited engineering, during space travel, it causes physiological distress significantly affecting the human brain and not having a spaceship fast enough to travel to another planet in the human lifespan, limiting long space exploration.
