The International Space Station(ISS)stands as a symbol of global cooperation, where astronauts from 19 countries conduct scientific experiments in microgravity. NASA's Perseverance rover, which landed on Mars in 2021, is searching for signs of ancient microbial life and collecting rock samples to return to Earth. Meanwhile, China's Tianwen­1 mission successfully deployed the Zhurong rover, making China the second nation to operate a rover on the Red Planet. Looking ahead, the future of space exploration holds exciting possibilities. Private companies like Space X are revolutionizing access to space with reusable rockets, drastically reducing launch costs. NASA's Artemis program aims to land the first woman and person of color on the moon by 2025, laying the groundwork for future Mars missions. Scientists are also exploring the potential of space tourism, with companies like Blue Origin already offering suborbital flights to paying customers. However, challenges remain, including the growing problem of space debris and the high cost of deep­space missions. Despite these obstacles, humanity's curiosity about the universe continues to push boundaries. Space exploration not only expands our scientific knowledge but also inspires future generations to pursue careers in STEM fields. 根据短文内容，判断下列句子正(T)、误(F)。 (F)1.The International Space Station is a project where only American astronauts work. (T)2.NASA's Perseverance rover is trying to find signs of life on Mars. (F)3.Reusable rockets will make space travel more expensive. (T)4.NASA's Artemis program plans to land the first woman on the moon by 2025. (T)5.Space debris is one of the challenges for future space exploration. B What Did Ancient Cultures Think About Stars? Long before telescopes were invented, ancient cultures around the world looked up at the stars and created stories to explain them. These stories were not just for fun but they helped people understand the world and their place in it. In ancient Egypt, the stars were closely linked to farming and religion. The Egyptians watched the star Sirius carefully. When it appeared in the sky, they knew the Nile River would soon flood, bringing rich soil for their crops. They also believed Sirius was the home of the goddess Isis. Ancient Greeks saw pictures in the stars, which we now call constellations. They made up myths about gods and heroes to explain these patterns. For example, the constellation Orion was said to be a great hunter from Greek myths. The Greeks also used stars to find their way when sailing on the sea. In ancient China, astronomers studied the stars to predict important events. They thought the stars could show what would happen to the emperor and the country. The Chinese also created a calendar based on the stars, which is still used for some traditional festivals today. 根据短文内容，回答问题。 1．What did ancient cultures create to explain the stars long before telescopes?
