On Friday, May 4, millions of kids throughout the world will celebrate Space Day. Space Day recognizes achievements in space exploration and promotes（促进）education in the fields of science, math, and technology.
This year’s theme is “50 years in space…and still having a blast（强劲）!” It commemorates the 1957 launch of the Sputnik satellite by the former Soviet Union. Sputnik was the world’s first man-made satellite; it marked the start of space exploration.
Events will be held throughout the US to celebrate Space Day. One major event is the Space Day Design Challenge competition. Winning teams will attend a ceremony at the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum in Chantilly, Virginia.
