Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -This argumentative unit compares “Humans Need to Explore Outer Space” by Claudia Alarcon and “Let Robots Take to the Stars” by Eiren Caffall in a comprehensive unit for digital and print.

Detailed explanation-2: -Robots don’t need to eat or sleep or go to the bathroom. They can survive in space for many years and can be left out there-no need for a return trip! Plus, robots can do lots of things that humans can’t. Some can withstand harsh conditions, like extreme temperatures or high levels of radiation.

Detailed explanation-3: -F But if space is to be more than a place to build automatic laboratories or set up industrial enterprises in the vicinity of our planet, the presence of humans is essential. They must learn how to voyage through space towards destinations which will be not only scientific bases but also places to live.

Detailed explanation-4: -Astronauts have to breathe, eat, drink and keep their demons at bay. Robots fly free of such constraints. They can do more, go more places and-because they don’t require life support systems and are thus cheaper than human missions-do it all more often.

Detailed explanation-5: -Redd first quotes Mae Jemison in the third paragraph. She quotes her in this part of the article because Jemison is one of the article’s experts and Redd wants to introduce her early.
