Space probes are meant to study the upper atmosphere of earth only.

  • A.if you think the inference is 'definitely true'.
  • B.if you think the inference is 'probably true' though not definitely true in the light of the facts given.
  • C.if the data given is inadequate i.e., from the fact given you cannot say whether the inference is likely to be true or false.
  • D.if you think the inference is definitely false i.e., it contradicts the given facts.

Answer: D

Correct answer: Definitely false

The passage contradicts this directly. Space probes are described as returning pictures and data about planets and other bodies in outer space, which is far beyond the earth’s atmosphere. The upper atmosphere belongs to a different sentence, about the original purpose of artificial satellites, and the word ‘only’ in the statement makes the clash unmistakable.
