For nearly a century before there was such a thing as a space program, a view of space was possible. People could see detailed views of the Moon, explore Mars, and study the geometric beauty of Saturn’s rings. All of this was made possible by a small group of artist-astronomers who made a career of illustrating how other worlds in space might look.
Lucien Rudaux, a French artist, was the first to combine his artistic talents with his knowledge of astronomy. His paintings show a mixture of skilled observations, brilliant imagination, and painstaking attention to details. As a result, many of his works have come surprisingly to close to actual conditions on distant planets. His painting of Mars included moonlike craters that were first photographed by the Mariner 4 probe in 1965. His 1930 painting of a dust storm looks remarkably like a photograph of a storm taken by Orbiter 2 in 1976.
The artist-astronomers, including Rudaux, stimulated interest in outer space by painting what eventually turned out to be precise portraits of the planets.
According to the passage, artist astronomers spent their lives _________.
选项
A、exploring the planets
B、studying geometry
C、creating images of space
D、producing rockets for space travel
答案
C
解析
本题要考生从文中对“artist-astronomer”的描述中进行分析。他们不是在研究太空,而是根据掌握的知识与想像来构造太空的图画。因此正确的答案为C。
