　　 Many of us wonder / ponder what lies in outer space. When we look up at the night sky, we see stars, the twinkle of a moving satellite and occasionally a distant planet. But one thing we don't see is / are the millions of pieces of junk filling up space.
　　 The amount of space junk is increasing. Over the last few decades, satellites and rockets have been launched into space, littering / littered the cosmos as they go. It's said there are now millions of discarded pieces of metal and other materials. Most of them are old rocket segments, dropped astronaut tools, even flecks of paint, and so on.
C
Extended Reading
　　The fear is that why / if we don't start taking this litter out of the sky soon, it will become a significant threat to active satellites. A company working on ways to clean up space junk says hitting “even a small paint fleck, has enough power to blow up other satellites”. Several ideas are being looked at to capture the debris floating around in space.
　　It's clear that a solution is needed so a celestial deep clean can take place. But looked / looking to the future, like any litter problem, we need to look at ways of creating less.
Practice
1. Read the text and check (√) the correct words.
ponder　is　littering　if　looking
