A Brief Statistical Look at Apollo
The Research Project is worth 20+ percent of your overall course grade. The assignment requires you to demonstrate the following course objectives (as stated in the course syllabus):
Analyze sources of data/information related to a given research topic
Evaluate both quantitative and qualitative research methods
Apply select statistical analysis procedures for quantitative data
Present findings in a coherent manner using both written text and graphics
For this assignment, you will be required to use a minimum of seven supporting documents/sources.
All sources must be scientific/scholarly in nature (and must be independent of one another just like in the Annotated Bibliography–two different pages from the same website count as one source).
Do not forget to access and use the AMU Online Library in support of your research, as well as the NASA website.
Research Task
Find, compare, and contrast the data for the Apollo 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, and 17 missions.
This may include such information as total days in Earth and lunar orbit, total time on the Moon, total spacewalks, health statistics for the astronauts and/or any other information/mission objectives you feel pertinent.
There is no set path for this assignment – the values to be compared are of your choosing, but make sure you analyze the information in depth. Do not just copy it from other sources and consider that your paper.
Format — MUST BE FOLLOWED!
Page 1: Cover Sheet (Title: “A Brief Statistical Look at Apollo”)
Page 2: Table of Contents
Pages 3-the end of Page 6 (keep within these pages–do not add any more!): Narrative Overview/Findings. IMPORTANT: Be sure to state up front what questions you are going to answer. For example, “This paper will compare/contrast the following mission objectives from _____________________.” In addition, you need to include a statement of your hypothesis, both qualitatively (in words) and mathematically (as you’ve been doing in the chapter exercises).
Pages 7-10: Statistical findings; should include an in depth analysis and may also include tables/graphs
Page 11: Summary (one paragraph to one page in length)
Page 12: Bibliography
Additional Guidance
Remember, all Space Studies course papers require the use of the APA Style Guide.
The narrative of your paper should be double spaced (except when using long quotations – more than four lines – which requires single spacing and further indentation).
Make sure to keep your work in third-person perspective. Terms such as “we,” “me,” “us,” and “our,” are not acceptable for this assignment. Your paper should be in Times New Roman 12 point font and only use one space between sentences.
Cite resources in your paper in accordance with APUS requirements.
Remember, if you list a number/fact/figure, you had to find/take it from somewhere so be sure to cite accordingly. Don’t cite Wikipedia – it’s not an appropriate source for college papers.
It is correct to capitalize “Moon” and also correct not to, but make sure you choose one way and then stay consistent throughout your paper.

Assignment Instructions
This analysis project requires you to tackle a problem within your field of study by first exploring it, its causes, and its impacts.
Then, if you want, you can recommend one or more practical solutions to solve the problem.
After deciding on the problem you wish to tackle, begin building questions about it. Your goal for the analysis is to answer the questions through your sources.
Finding multiple angles and perspectives is ideal so that you explore those possibilities in the final paper before settling on your recommendation. Be sure to identify what is at stake.
Here are questions to help guide your analysis:
What is the problem being addressed (explain, describe, and “prove” that it exists)?
Who is affected by this problem?
Why does this problem exist (identify the root causes)?
Why does the problem persist (identify the major factors that contribute to the problem’s ongoing presence)?
What is at stake if the problem is not solved?
If you decide to include a solution, use these questions to guide you:
Who can take action?
What should they do, exactly?
Why would this help?
What are the positive and negative aspects of your solution(s)?
PURPOSE: To analyze a problem and possibly provide a solution
AUDIENCE: Classmates, others interested in the field
LENGTH: 900 – 1,000 words (Times New Roman font). do not go significantly under or above the word count requirement.
SOURCES: 5 (five) sources from the APUS Library (These may include sources you used in previous assignments. Going under this number will cost points in grading.)
