The Moon isn’t famous for its leisure activities, so ace astronaut Alan Shepard brought his own sports equipment. In 1971 Shepard became the only person to play golf in space when he took a golf club with him and hit two balls.

WHAT A COOL WORDSEARCH
Just what do these space explorers get up to while at the Space Station? They get involved in space research, doing experiments and recording their discoveries. One of these tourists, Charles Simonyi has been to the station twice and said his favourite part of the day was observing the Earth and learning to identify different places and features. That’s out of this world!
For the ultimate adventure, space walks are available, during which space tourists can float about in space for an hour and a half!
The sky is clearly not the limit for space holidays. There are plans to build space hotels in orbit around Earth as soon as 2020. That’s only 8 years away!
