Reading. Will we ever...?

A Will people ever live on the moon?

Angie, London

Not in the near future. There are real problems - the big one is that people need oxygen to stay alive and the moon has very little. And there’s no animal or plant life on the moon, so what will we do about food? I think one thing is for sure - it won’t be before the next century! And the number of people living there will be quite small.

В Will we ever be able to travel through time?

Paul, Cambridge

Well, people are fascinated by the idea of time travel. But that doesn't mean it’ll ever be possible. I’d love to be able to go into the past or the future! But I’m sure we’ll never be able to. So my answer to this is no, no chance! (Sorry!)

C Will there ever be cities under the sea?

Anthea, Chester

A lot of people are working on this. But there are lots of problems. One is that people need sunlight, and there isn’t much sunlight 100 meters under the sea! And another is pressure - how can we build walls that are thick enough to keep the water out? And where will the energy come from? Personally, I don’t think we’ll see underwater cities in my lifetime. And to be honest, I’d hate to live under the sea and not see the sun!

D Will scientists ever stop using animals for experiments?

Max, Liverpool

I hope so. The problem is that people don't like using animals to test new medicines and drugs, but they don’t really want to use human beings because nobody knows for sure what will happen to the people in the experiment. Some people predict that human beings will replace animals more and more in the next 10 to 20 years. All animal lovers hope they’re right. And so do I.
