實(shí)際上，我們通往星際之海的旅程發(fā)源于我們遠(yuǎn)古的夢想。太空探索源于我們對宇宙的渴望，而對于人類歷史的大部分時(shí)間來說，宇宙都是神秘而遙不可及的。千百年來，人們仰望天空，好奇夜空中閃爍的物體究竟是什么。這樣的好奇激發(fā)了遠(yuǎn)古時(shí)代的神話傳說。例如，在中國，關(guān)于天宮（天上的宮殿）、嫦娥（中國的月亮女神）和玉兔（陪伴嫦娥女神的兔子）的美妙故事，在我們的想象中構(gòu)建了美麗的場景，將我們吸引向星辰大海。3

到了現(xiàn)代，隨著火箭技術(shù)、電子及其他科技的發(fā)展，探索未知宇宙成為可能，這有助于解答一些根本性的問題，比如：宇宙有多大？它是何時(shí)形成的？在我們視力無法到達(dá)的地方還存在著什么？現(xiàn)在，我們知道，宇宙的跨度大約有900億光年，它有近140億年的歷史。它包含著數(shù)千億個(gè)星系，而地球坐落在其中之一的銀河系的外圍邊緣。4

太空探測器也幫助我們更多地了解地球家園所在的太陽系。美國航空航天局于1977年發(fā)射的“旅行者一號”和“旅行者二號”探測器一直在傳回關(guān)于其他行星的照片和數(shù)據(jù)?；鹦翘綔y器，包括以中國神話中火神命名的“祝融號”，幫助人類了解了這顆紅色行星的地表及天氣等方面的信息。同樣，中國“嫦娥五號”任務(wù)所帶回的月壤樣本為分析月球演變提供了新的依據(jù)。5

除了通過發(fā)射太空探測器所取得的重要發(fā)現(xiàn)，載人航天也為太空探索翻開了新的篇章。當(dāng)載人飛船克服地球引力，人類活動范圍得到拓展，不再局限于陸地、海洋以及大氣層。中國宇航員積極投身于航天工業(yè)的發(fā)展，并在人類太空探索的歷史上留下了光輝的篇章。楊利偉乘坐中國的第一艘載人飛船“神舟五號”造訪太空。翟志剛則搭載“神舟七號”升空，成為第一位完成太空漫步的中國宇航員?！吧裰凼枴憋w行乘組在“天宮空間站”生活和工作了六個(gè)月，為長期宇宙航行積累了寶貴的經(jīng)驗(yàn)。6

太空探索不僅涉及那些遠(yuǎn)離地球的事物；它也為我們的日常生活帶來了影響深遠(yuǎn)的益處。太空探索所激發(fā)的新型技術(shù)極大地推動了其他領(lǐng)域的發(fā)展。以在地球軌道中運(yùn)行的人造衛(wèi)星為例，它們所提供的通訊、導(dǎo)航和地球觀測服務(wù)為我們提供了更為詳盡的風(fēng)暴預(yù)警和宇宙天氣預(yù)報(bào)。中國獨(dú)立建造并運(yùn)行的北斗衛(wèi)星導(dǎo)航系統(tǒng)，以漢語中的“北斗七星”命名。它被應(yīng)用于多個(gè)領(lǐng)域，滿足了重要的國家基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施需求，并創(chuàng)造了令人矚目的經(jīng)濟(jì)和社會效益。7

同樣，許多最初為航天項(xiàng)目開發(fā)的設(shè)備在地球上也得到了廣泛應(yīng)用，并深刻改變了我們的日常生活。20世紀(jì)60年代用于檢測宇航員關(guān)鍵體征的技術(shù)被運(yùn)用于每一所醫(yī)院。美國航空航天局也利用宇航服技術(shù)幫助改進(jìn)了消防員保護(hù)的方法?；谔杖蝿?wù)所使用的機(jī)械臂，中國科學(xué)家設(shè)計(jì)出了安全檢測機(jī)械狗。一旦發(fā)現(xiàn)例如像起火這樣的危險(xiǎn)情況時(shí)，它會發(fā)動警報(bào)并向指揮系統(tǒng)發(fā)送報(bào)告。8

因?yàn)閾碛袩o限的可能性，太空探索成為了一項(xiàng)豐富和拓展人類未來的偉大事業(yè)。在這項(xiàng)創(chuàng)舉中，中國正扮演著越來越重要的角色。為了和平利用外太空，中國歡迎其他國家參與在天宮空間站進(jìn)行的研究項(xiàng)目。毋庸置疑，廣袤無垠的宇宙星海將始終是我們追求美好生活以及世界繁榮的信息及靈感之源。1.Completethefollowingoutlineaboutspaceexploration.Spaceexplorationaroseoutofhumanity’sdesireto1)
