Chapter 1: Present Time
Worksheet 1. Reading: Living in Space
Read this passage based on a real entry in astronaut Ed Lu’s journal. It was written
in the spring of 2003 when he was on an expedition to the International Space
Station. After you read the passage, answer the questions on the next page.
Living in Space
Life up here in space is very different from life down on
earth. The main difference is this: on earth, things fall down
to the floor, but up here, they don’t fall to the floor.
Instead , they float in the air.
On earth, we walk from one place to another, but up here we don’t walk
normally. We float around inside the module . It’s like flying. We go
straight ahead until we grab onto something or we hit a wall . And
sometimes we bump into objects. With practice, we learn how to control
our movements. We push ourselves from object to object, or we move along
and hold onto the handrails .
We don't have a real kitchen aboard the spacecraft , but we do have a
kitchen table. We can't set things down on it, but we have bungee straps
and Velcro on the tabletop so our food containers, spoons, napkins, etc.
don’t fly away. If the salt flies away, we have to go after it to pull it back. Of
course there are no chairs around the table. We float around the table while
we prepare our meals and eat.
space shuttle = a vehicle that is designed to go into space and return to Earth
module = a part of the space shuttle that can separate from it
