LESSON PREVIEW
ABOUT THIS LESSON
About This Space Tourism ESL Lesson
For centuries, traveling into space was impossible for ordinary people. Even after human spaceflight became a reality, the experience remained limited almost entirely to highly trained astronauts.
This B1–B2 Space Tourism ESL lesson explores how commercial spaceflight is beginning to change that. Students consider private space travel, the high price of a ticket and whether access to space should remain an experience available mainly to the wealthy.
The lesson combines an original reading and audio with vocabulary, comprehension, discussion questions and critical-thinking activities. Students use English to debate the benefits and disadvantages of space tourism and consider how commercial space travel could develop in the future.
