Hello everybody, and welcome to a new episode of News Bites!

I'm Trevor Tortomasi…

And I'm Ryan Drillsma.

In today's news:

Treasure in trash, trash in space, and space for a new character in an upcoming movie.

All that and more, coming up next.

影片部落格 垃圾中發現古物

Vloggers Accidentally Find Relics in Trash

Have you ever seen a vlog?

"Vlog" is a shorter word for "video blog", which is like a blog (部落格) or journal (日記) made with videos.

And a "vlogger" is someone who makes vlogs!

Two of these vloggers in Taiwan have a YouTube channel, where they like to share videos of their outdoor activities.

Recently, they were making a video about cleaning up trash in Taiwan's mountains and forests.

And they cleaned up around 130 kilograms of trash!

But when they released the video, many people discovered a strange detail.

她們發布影片的時候，很多人發現一件奇怪的事。

In their trash, there were some old bottles of wine (有幾瓶紅酒).

And because they were picked up in the ruins of the Ma'an Police Station (新竹馬鞍派出所), some people realized they must be very, VERY old.

那些酒瓶是在馬鞍派出所的廢墟中找到的，所以應該是很久很久以前的東西。

In fact… the bottles of wine were from the Japanese Colonial Era (台灣日治時期)!

People say this makes them relics (遺跡), and that they should be put in a museum, or somewhere safe.

In the end, the two vloggers apologized (道歉), and returned the bottles to their original place.

It's lucky that they have so much to share with their audience (觀眾), but it's also lucky that their audience pays so much attention to the details!

太空船碎片 會撞上月球

Space Debris to Collide with Moon

Humans have been traveling to space for many decades now (好幾十年).

We've put some truly amazing rockets (火箭) and satellites (衛星) way up there…

But unfortunately, we can't always bring everything back down to Earth so easily.

And that means our old machines (機器) have left a lot of trash in the space around our planet.

Scientists pay close attention to this space trash, so that we don't accidentally hit it when we travel off of Earth.

And recently, they noticed a very large object moving very quickly toward the moon.

Scientists say it's a giant piece of the Chang'e rocket, that China sent to the moon in 2014.

科學家說，這塊巨大的太空垃圾是中國2014年送去月球的【嫦娥】火箭的一部分。

It was already used in the mission (任務), and was left to float in space.

But now, scientists say it's going to hit the moon!

According to some complicated math, the rocket part should crash into the moon's surface on March 4th, at around 8:00 PM.

根據很複雜的數學計算，這塊太空垃圾將要在3月4日晚上8點左右撞到月球表面。

Of course we know the moon is big, but space is even bigger, so this is a rare event (很罕見).

And the moon crash might be pretty cool to see, but scientists are still reminding people to stop putting so much trash in space…

We don't want people to get hit out there, too!

第三部音速小子電影 開始拍攝

Third Sonic Movie in the Works

American movie studio Paramount is developing a third "Sonic the Hedgehog" movie.

The movie will focus on the character "Knuckles", a red echidna who starts off as one of Sonic's enemies, but later becomes Sonic's best friend.

這部電影的主角是【納克魯斯】，一隻紅色的針鼴，最開始是音速小子的敵人之一。

It's not yet sure if Knuckles will go from being Sonic's enemy to his friend in the movies too.

我們不確定納克魯斯在這部電影裡，是否也會跟音速小子做朋友。

The first Sonic movie earned 320 million U.S. dollars worldwide.

The second movie will be released this April, and will feature actors including Jim Carrey and James Marsden.
