Puzzle provided by Highlights

In May 2020, NASA and American space transportation service company SpaceX successfully launched two astronauts to space. This was a historic moment since it marked the first time for astronauts to travel in a commercial rocket. Can you imagine one day we can plan a trip to the outer space? Our space shuttle might fly pass a burning asteroid and we can even pick any planet we would like to visit! Will everything in the illustration come true one day?

Challenge!

Can you find the objects hidden in the big picture?
