《English Translation》

小宝: Brother, what are you looking at?
小刚: I’m reading news about Chang'e-6. Scientists have discovered that the near side and far side of the Moon are very different!
小宝: The far side of the Moon? What does it look like?
小刚: The far side of the Moon is more rugged than the near side. The rocks brought back by scientists prove that the Moon might have once been a vast ocean of lava!
小宝: Wow, was there an ocean on the Moon?
小刚: Not a real ocean like today, but a magma ocean a long, long time ago. However, scientists have found evidence of ancient oceans on Mars!
小宝: Is there water on Mars?
小刚: There might have been in the past. The Zhurong rover detected sediment underground that looks like a coastline, suggesting that there may have been a great ocean there!
小宝: Wow! So in the future, can humans go swimming on Mars?
小刚: Haha, right now Mars is too cold and has no liquid water, so swimming isn’t possible. But scientists are working hard to study it—maybe one day people will be able to live on Mars!
小宝: Then I need to grow up fast so I can go play on Mars!
