Recognizing Comma Splices And Fused Sentences

Directions: In the exercise that follows, you will read an item to determine if the error is a comma splice or a fused sentence.

To keep track of your answers, print the accompanying handout. If you are unsure which choice to make, consult the rules.

Before you begin, you should review the definitions of a comma splice and a fused sentence:

A comma splice contains two main clauses illegally joined by a comma. The problem looks like this:

Main Clause + , + Main Clause = .

A fused sentence, on the other hand, contains two main clauses illegally run together with no punctuation whatsoever. The problem looks like this:

Main Clause + Ø + Main Clause = .

As a writer, you must keep in mind that comma splices and fused sentences make you look like an amateur. They tell your reader that you cannot control the construction of a sentence, the most basic building block of a piece of writing. Learning to identify comma splices and fused sentences is the first step to fixing the problem.

The DARK side of SPACE TOURISM: Environmental IMPACT!

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
The space economy is worth at least $469 billion, according to a new report.

The term 'space economy' covers the goods and services produced in space for use in space.

Digital infrastructure in the sky has brought benefits to many industries and is helping in the fight against climate change.

However there are concerns about the amount of space debris in Earth's orbit, which NASA says now totals 9,000 tonnes.

The space economy is booming

The Space Foundation's The Space Report 2022 estimates that the space economy was worth $469 billion in 2021 - a 9% increase from a year earlier. And over 1,000 spacecraft were put into orbit in the first six months of this year, the report says - more than were launched in the first 52 years of space exploration (1957-2009).

Most of this money came from the private sector rather than the public sector, the report says, estimating that more than $224 billion was generated from products and services delivered by space companies.

There has also been an increase in state-backed investment in space projects around the world, according to the Space Foundation report. There was a 19% jump in overall government spending on military and civilian space programmes last year. India raised spending by 36%, China invested 23% more and the US pumped another 18% into space ventures.

Innovation is fuelling the space economy

What's happening today has been described as a "space renaissance" - a period when technological innovation is significantly reducing costs and creating new capabilities.

The CEO of Planet Labs, Will Marshall, told the World Economic Forum's Annual Meeting at Davos in May that rocket prices have dropped fourfold in the past decade. Companies that might once have had to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars to put a satellite into space can now do so for a fraction of that, as cheaper components have become available.

Marshall says this means we're now producing 10 times more Earth imagery by area than five years ago, and 10 times the bandwidth of communications is being transmitted around the planet.

He also says better imaging is increasing accountability. For example, commercial satellite data is providing a bird's-eye view of the conflict in Ukraine, allowing the world to witness and record events on the ground as they occur.

Satellite imagery can also allow farmers to monitor crops, businesses to track their environmental, social and governance performance, and governments to monitor CO2 emissions, Marshall says.

Solving the space waste problem

Space economy needs responsible behaviour: Increasing space activity means there is also more and more space debris. Image: European Space Agency

This debris can include non-functional spacecraft, abandoned equipment, and mission-related debris. Travelling at speeds up to 17,500 miles per hour (28,160 kilometres per hour), even a tiny piece of debris can damage a satellite or spacecraft.

The World Economic Forum's Space Sustainability Rating (SSR) looks to encourage responsible behaviour in space through increasing the transparency of organization's debris mitigation efforts. The SSR will provide a score representing a mission's sustainability in relation to debris mitigation and alignment with international guidelines.

Making Inferences

Similar to a hypothesis, an inference is an informed guess about science or scientific relationships. Inferences are based on real, observed evidence but are still just guesses about the true relationship that exists.

Here's a simple example. If you see your friend wearing a team's baseball jersey, an inference would be that they are a fan of that team.

How Is This Related to Observations?

When you infer something, you make a guess based on what you notice. Let's go back to that example of your friend wearing a sports jersey. How did we decide that your friend is a fan of that baseball team? Well, we wouldn't have been able to come to that conclusion unless:

We noticed them wearing it.

We saw that it was a jersey for a sports team.

Based on what we observed, we were able to make a decent guess that they are a fan of that team.

Inference Vs. Hypothesis

A hypothesis is an educated guess about what will happen in a situation. It is based on what you see, hear, feel, smell, or taste. It does sound a lot like an inference, but there is a slight difference.

An inference is a conclusion based on what you observe.

A hypothesis is a prediction about something that hasn't happened yet.
