My future discoveries
Science and Language (writing)
The astronauts on board the International Space Station (ISS) do research by performing experiments. But do you know what these experiments are for?
Some can help doctors to create new types of medicine to cure illnesses on Earth. Other ones help scientists understand how plants grow or how the human body works by comparing how it works in space and on Earth. It is also possible to create new types of materials in space. Astronauts´ observations of the Earth help us to take better care of our blue planet…
What would you like to do when you are older? Would you fancy being a scientist inventing experiments to be performed in space? You can write an essay to describe what you would like to study, research and discover!
