12th April: International Day of Human Space Flight
61 years after Yuri Gagarin’s historic endeavor, human space flight seems more accessible than ever before, although for most of us space tourism still remains unaffordable.
Nevertheless, learning new things about space while practising your interpreting skills is an entirely free investment in yourselves! Check out the speeches we suggest on this particular occasion and you will find out…
… all about dogs in space (I know, it’s human flight, but we couldn’t have made it without our pioneer pet friends)
… that the International Space Station will soon be decommissioned!
… that the day after the first flight to the moon, an Italian newspaper published the picture of a footprint claiming it was Armstrong’s, although a certain fireman from Rome would probably disagree…
Now, it’s time for you to shoot for the moon with these challenging videos and new entries from our Speech Repository:
