B
To convince the reader that space exploration should either be curtailed nor cut because of the costs and risks
C
To convince the reader that space exploration should be either curtailed or cut because of the costs and risks
D

Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Fundamentally there is no real choice between robotic and human exploration of space, however. Both are synergistic and mutually dependent. Robotic exploration is necessary to enable human exploration by setting the context, providing critical information, and reducing the risk to humans.

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: -Robots help the space exploration process through the mechanical design of planetary rovers, the mechanical design of space manipulators, actuators and sensors of space robots, end-effector/tools of space robots, reconfigurable robots, and robot mobility.

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: -Human space exploration helps to address fundamental questions about our place in the Universe and the history of our solar system. Through addressing the challenges related to human space exploration we expand technology, create new industries, and help to foster a peaceful connection with other nations.
