文字稿//Robots Find Salt Water on Mars

What does "environment" mean?

Go outside. Look around. Lie on the grass. Look at the sky.

Our environment is the natural things around us. It is the air, plants,
animals, the clouds in the sky…
什麼是環境呢?出去走走,到處看看,躺在草皮上,望向天空。我們的環境就是空氣、植物、動物跟天空中的雲。

The Earth's environment keeps us alive. We have air to breathe. We have water
to drink and food to eat.
地球的環境讓我們有空氣可以呼吸,我們有水可以喝,有食物可以吃。

But our planet has 8 billion people! It needs help.
但地球有八十億人口!它需要幫助。

We can help. But can another planet help too? Can people live there one day?

Hmmm...which planet? Some planets are too hot or too cold. Some are okay. But
do they have water?
我們幫得上忙。但另一個星球也可以幫忙嗎?
有一些星球太熱,有一些星球太冷。有一些星球還可以的,但它們有水嗎?

The planet Mars is not too hot or too cold. Scientists are learning more
about its environment. They sent robots to look around.
火星不會太熱或太冷。科學家派機器人去了解。

Guess what one robot found?! Salt water! Mars had salt water a long time ago.
Maybe Mars has water now!
他們找到了甚麼呢?一台機器人找到鹽水。火星很久以前有鹽水,或許現在有淡水了!

Can people live on Mars one day? Scientists need to find out more. For now,
let's help our environment here on Earth!
