EXPLORING MARS AND THE MOON Humans are fascinated by what lies beyond our world.

This has inspired inventors, engineers and scientists to design and build better and better spacecrafts and robots to study Mars and the moon.

One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.

THE MOON LANDING

On 20 July 1969, Neil Armstrong was the first human to walk on the moon.

He walked around in a spacesuit and collected soil and rocks for scientists back on Earth to study.

14 FREE 4 ALL March 2024

ROVERS

These are vehicles controlled by robots. They can move on their own and do tasks like a person. They can go to places and do things that are dangerous or difficult for people to do.

They have communication systems for sending and receiving messages.

People tell the robots what to do and the robots send information back to Earth.

Rovers have built-in cameras and mechanical arms. They have solar panels that use the sun’s energy to make the rover work.

WHY WE USE ROVERS

It takes two years to travel to Mars and come back.

There is no breathable air on Mars and the planet can get much hotter and colder than Earth.

FEEDBACK FROM MARS AND THE MOON

Since the 1970s Russia has landed two rovers on the moon and the USA has landed four small rovers on Mars.

These rovers have taken many close-up photographs and have collected samples of soil, rocks and gases to test.

March 2024 FREE 4 ALL 15

MOON ROVERS IN THE FUTURE NO ASTRONAUTS HAVE LANDED ON THE MOON SINCE 1972, BUT NASA PLANS TO SEND PEOPLE THERE AGAIN SOON. They plan to build a base on which astronauts can live for months at a time.

These rovers will need to travel far and have mechanical arms that can do heavy work like digging and hauling loads.

THERE ARE MANY TYPES OF ROVERS. ROVERS. • Lunar trucks that can be operated by astronauts wearing their spacesuits.

• Small pressurised rovers that look a lot like campervans. They have been adapted so that the astronauts don’t need spacesuits when they are inside it. These rovers can move backwards and forwards and go sideways like a crab!

be bike safe!

BEFORE YOU RIDE YOUR BIKE ON THE ROAD YOU NEED TO KNOW THE RULES FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY. READ THE STORY AND ANSWER THE QUESTIONS. ROAD SAFETY IS VERY IMPORTANT.

Before you go cycling, make sure you are wearing sensible, closed shoes. Takkies are the best. You should also wear a helmet to protect your head in case you fall off your bicycle.

Ask your mom or dad to check that your tyres are suitably pumped and that your brakes are working.

Your bike must have a reflector at the back so that you can be seen by motorists.

When you are sitting on the saddle and you take your feet off the pedals, your feet should be able to reach the ground.

When you go cycling, you should try to have an adult with you.

Ride on the left hand side of the road. You must always stop at a stop street.

Check right, left and right again before taking off.

Never veer into the middle of the road and be aware that cars may come up behind you.

If you are riding on a busier road where there are robots – stop when the robot turns red. Orange means wait and green means go.
