They are very far a-way and their light has to travel for many years to reach us. So how large is the universe? It is impossible to imagine. Scientists have sent spaceships to the plant of Mars to take photos. They even have sent spaceships to travel outside the solar system. However, no spaceship has travelled far enough to reach near other stars in our Galaxy. Scientists have always asked the question: With so many stars in the universe, are we a- 八年级英语试题 第 7 页 (共8页 ) lone, or is there life out there in space?
