In the sense that Earth and space exploration both stem from the same drive to understand environment and our place within it, there is no reason for the split to exist.

Would you help me to understand these sentences?

2- Human drive
3- split to exist
 In the sense that Earth and space exploration both stem from the same drive to understand environment and our  place within it, there is no reason for the split to exist.
Thank you

Answer

"In the sense that" is a throat clearing phrase - it means "Since" or "Because" here.
"Human drive" means innate motivation, or natural instinct for humans.
This reading selection is odd - "split to exist" may refer to the Earth and space exploration, or to environment and our place within it. "There is no reason for the split to exist" means that the two should be thought of as one thing.
