PAGE 课时作业(十八)　Unit 6　 Section Ⅲ　Developing ideas, Presenting ideas Reflection 阅读理解 A Artemis is NASAs new lunar exploration program. Through the Artemis program, NASA will use new technology to study the Moon in new and better ways, and prepare for human missions to Mars. NASAs new rocket will carry the Orion spacecraft to lunar orbit. Then, astronauts will dock (对接) Orion at a small spaceship called the Gateway, from which the crew will take trips to the lunar surface in a new human landing system, and then return to the Gateway. The crew will return to Earth aboard Orion. NASA will test the rocket and the spacecraft in flight, and then send a crew for a test flight： ?Artemis 1 will be a test flight of the SLS rocket with the Orion spacecraft with no crew. ?Artemis 2 will fly SLS and Orion with a crew past the Moon, then circle it and return to Earth. This trip will be the farthest any human has gone into space. ?Artemis 3 will send a crew with the first woman and the next man to land on the Moon by 2024. The Artemis 3 crew will visit the Moons South Pole. No one has ever been there. On the Moon, astronauts will： ?Search for the Moons water and use it. ?Learn how to live and work on the surface of another celestial body (天体) where astronauts are just three days from home. ?Test the technologies we need before sending astronauts on missions to Mars. The Moon is a good place to learn new science. NASA will learn more about the Moon, Earth and even the Sun. The Moon is a “test bed” for Mars. The Moon is a place to show that astronauts will one day be able to work away from Earth on Mars for long periods of time. 1．What is the aim of the Artemis program?
