From a plane you can see the fields, cities, mountains or rivers below. If you go into space, you see more and more of the Earth. Many man-made satellites (人造卫星）are sent into space to look at the Earth, the stars and other planets and to learn more about them.
The Moon is our neighbour in space. It is smaller than the Earth. Plants can't grow on the Moon because there's no air or water on it.
The Moon doesn’t have its own light. It shines back the light of the Sun. When the Sun is shining on the side of the Moon that faces us, it looks like a great round ball. We can't see the Moon when the Sun is shining on the side of the Moon that faces away from us.
