Humans have been theorizing about space for centuries and physically visiting it since 1961, when Yuri Gagarin became the first person to travel to space and the first man to orbit Earth.[1]
We’ve learned quite a bit about space through decades of exploration, but there’s still a lot left unknown about it.
Discoveries are continually being made, like China’s discovery of a green, gel-like material on the moon in 2019[2] and the discovery of radio waves from outside of our solar system in 2020.[3]
