Exploration of the Moon

Exploring the Moon is like exploring a New World. It is difficult to do since it's very far away and it's much different than Earth. Astronauts use special spaceships to travel to the Moon, and they wear special suits so they can survive in the cold, airless environment. Once they reach the Moon, astronauts are able to explore the surface by driving special rover vehicles, taking pictures and collecting different moon rocks and soil samples. These samples help scientists learn more about the Moon and its history. Exploring the Moon is really cool and exciting because it's like taking a step back in time and discovering something new!
