Will We Live In Space?
People have dreamed of travelling in space for thousands of years,
But it was not until 1957 that it became a reality.
In October 4, 1957 the USSR launched the first man-made satellite
into space. It was called Sputnik 1.On April 12, 1961 the soviet
cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin became the first man to orbit the Earth. The
first spacewoman in the world was Valentina Tereshkova. She made 48
orbits in 1963 in her Vostok 6.On July 20, 1969 the American
astronaut Neil Armstrong became the first man to set foot on the
Moon. In 1986 the Russian space station Mir was launched.
Progress is inevitable and soon we'll be able to visit and even live on
other planets.
The 21st century may turn science fiction into science fact.
Scientists are already at work on the International Space Station, a
"city of space". It will be the size of a football field and will weigh
over 200 tons. A team of 10-15 spacemen will probably be able to live
and work at the International Space Station in 2005.The next great step
will be when people land on our nearest planet Mars. Scientists say
that the planet once had water on its surface. If that water is now
frozen underground, humans will be able to use it someday. By the end
of the 21-st century, scientists hope, it will be possible to "terraform"
Mars - transform the planet into an earthlike place with air and water.
