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.
