Tale from childhood: Visit to the space museum.

Sophie and her grandmother decided to go to the space museum in the big city. So, they took a bus from their home suburb to this city. Then Sophie and grandma took the subway a few stations. They liked this long journey because it was interesting.

This place was big and cozy. There were many different telescopes that people looked through.

When Sophie looked through the telescope she saw stars, planets, and galaxies.

"Wow! That's lovely" Sophie said.

Then the visitors of the space museum were told interesting facts about galaxies. Sophie and granny listened very carefully.

Sophie remembered this trip well. She was tired, but very happy. When she went to bed she asked herself:

"Is there intelligent life in other galaxies?"
