Today's astronauts differ from 1400s explorers in their training and mission objectives. Modern astronauts undergo extensive education in science, engineering, and physical training, often specializing in specific fields like Biology or robotics, whereas 1400s explorers typically relied on navigational skills and experience. Additionally, today's missions are collaborative efforts involving international teams and advanced technology, focusing on scientific research and international cooperation, compared to the primarily territorial and resource-driven motives of early explorers. Finally, while past explorers ventured into the unknown primarily for discovery and conquest, today's astronauts aim to expand human knowledge and establish a sustainable presence in space.
They are alike because astronauts and the exploreres are always trying to find new and faster routes to get somewhere. For example, building a smaller and more agile ship for getting into tighter spaces and go a bit more faster. Making adjustments to a modern day rocket to make it faster and better technology for more safe, and affective travels.
In the 1400s, several key technologies revolutionized exploration, including the astrolabe, which enabled navigators to determine their latitude at sea. The magnetic compass improved navigation accuracy by providing a consistent reference direction. Advances in ship design, such as the caravel, allowed for faster and more agile voyages, while cartography improved maps, helping explorers chart new territories. These innovations collectively facilitated longer and more ambitious sea voyages, paving the way for the Age of Discovery.
Some astronomers from the early 1400s include Regiomontanus, Copernicus, and Purbach. These astronomers made significant contributions to the understanding of the cosmos and laid the foundation for future astronomical discoveries.

the routes taken by explorers for Portugal during the 1400s and early 1500s was the cape of good hope

really easy
Both are facing the unknown. We did not know what could happen in space. Sailors in the 1400s did not know what would happen sailing west.

I'm only 14 and I know this(: It was the late 1400s
