What do I KNOW about space exploration?
Humans have landed on the Moon.
NASA, ESA, and SpaceX are key organizations. Rovers like Curiosity and Perseverance explore Mars. Space exploration helps us learn about planets, stars, and galaxies. Space missions are expensive and require advanced technology. What do I WANT to know about space exploration? What have I LEARNED about space exploration? How much does it cost to send a spacecraft to Mars? What planets or moons could support human life? When will humans go to Mars? Why is space exploration important for Earth's future? How do astronauts survive in space for long periods? Where are they shooting out the rockets to the space?
1. How much does it cost to send a spacecraft to
Mars? It's generally billions of dollars. 2. What planets or moons could support human life? Mars is the most likely candidate, but other possibilities include Europa (a moon of Jupiter) and Enceladus (a moon of Saturn). 3. When will humans go to Mars? Current estimates suggest the mid-2030s, but this could change depending on technological advancements and funding. 4. Why is space exploration important for Earth's future? Space exploration can help us find new resources, develop new technologies, and better understand our place in the universe. 5. How do astronauts survive in space for long periods? Astronauts must adapt to the microgravity environment, maintain a healthy diet, and exercise regularly to prevent muscle loss and bone density loss.
6. Where are they shooting out the rockets to the
space? Rockets are typically launched from spaceports located near the equator, where Earth's rotation provides an additional boost. Some of the most famous spaceports include Cape Canaveral in Florida, Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan, and Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in China.
