—— Using language
1st stop:
the Moon

Review: models
Activity 1
a. Millions watched that first lunar landing on black and white television sets, their hearts in their mouths, aware of the many things that could go wrong.
Review: models
Activity 1
b. The world went into shock. Most people have assumed that the space flight would be no more dangerous than traveling in an aeroplane.
c. I can remember that day so clearly, watching the take-off on TV at school.
Review: models
Activity 1
d. The sacrifice of the challenger calls to us, remembering us that we must continue to reach for the stars.

Review: models
1. Which sentence talks about ability
2. Which sentence talks about the possibility
3. Which sentence talks about the necessity
4. Which sentence talks about the prediction
Now look for more sentences with models in the reading passage.
With the eyes of the students across the nation upon her, she might have inspired an entirely new generation of astronauts and space scientists.
The sacrifice of the challenger calls to us, remembering us that we must continue to reach for the stars, no matter how distant they might seem.

Cassini
Activity 2
2nd stop:
Saturn
October 15,1997
On 15 October 1997, the Cassini spacecraft set out on a mission to explore the planet Saturn. So great was the distance from the Earth that it would/shall need to travel for almost six years to reach its destination. When it reached Saturn, it sent back amazing images of the planets’ famous rings viewed in ultraviolet light. Cassini made numerous trips around the Saturn so it could/must collect data. Over the following years, Cassini took 450,000 images of the planet and its moons. Finally, on 15 September 2007, Cassini was pointed towards Saturn so that it should/would meet a fiery end. Scientists had decided that Cassini could/must be destroyed this way, so it must/would not collide with any of Saturn’s moons. In its nearly 20-year mission, Cassini provided so much information that scientists could/would not process it all. No wonder so many people took to social media to bid it goodbye, saying, “ Farewell, dear Cassini, we shall/should never forget you!”
Activity 2 Choose the correct modals.

3rd stop:
Mars
January 24th, 2040
Activity 3 Tell a story using modals.
I couldn’t believe it when I looked into the Martian sky …
Zhurong 4th
Space flight
Mount Olympus
could; might; must; shall; would…
Review: models
I couldn’t believe it when I looked into the Martian sky, which was “dark yellowish brown” for plenty of dust remained in the atmosphere. In the distance stood an active volcano whose next eruption might be a few years later. What impressed me most was Tianwen 4th, which could travel faster and farther and would continue traveling south. Never in my dream could I imagine that plants were growing there, with reddish-orange flowers like thistles. Never shall I forget that day! You should see it with you own eyes!
Activity 3 Tell a story using modals.
Review: models
The Fermi Paradox: according to some calculations, there should be many other civilizations out there, but there is no evidence of these at all. No spacecraft, no radio transmissions, nothing. So, as Fermi said, "Where is everybody "

Interviewee’s questions
Answers
1. Is there life on other planets Sophie: There must be millions of planets like ours, and some could have life 1 ______________________.
Eric: You would think it likely that 2 _____________________________.
But that’s 3________________________the Fermi Paradox.
2. What would life on other planets look like Sophie: Life on other planets won't look like us
because 4_______________________________________________________.
Eric: Because evolution 5 ________________________________________, life on other planets is likely to look like us.
3 Will people make contact with life on other planets Eric: We cannot 6 _______________________,which means it would take more than a lifetime to reach planets where there might be life.
Sophie: Maybe we don't need to travel in straight lines. Perhaps we will be able to 7______________________________________________________ to make contact with life on other planets.

Activity 9
Life in space
At the observatory, you can learn more about the astronomy and take in lunar eclipse.
You will also have the chance to design and launch a model rocket.
Then in modern flight simulators, you could put on a spacesuit, exit the capsule and go on a incredibly lifelike spacewalk in a world with zero gravity.
Dear Ted,
Remember when I told you I'd signed up for the space programme Well I just got back from a week of simulated manned flight activities, and it was awesome!
We started out with some theory, learning about astronomy in the 1.__________________, and then 2. __________________model rockets. After that we tried the simulator. I put on a 3 ___________________ and went for a walk in 4 ________________________________. It's strange to float around like that-in fact, a lot of people get 5 ___________________! Luckily, I felt fine. Then I returned to the 6_______________ and travelled to the "Moon“ for some lunar exploration. You should join the programme too-you'd love it!
