Robot Squid
Some people have another name for the Earth... they call our world the "Blue
Planet".
Why do they call it the Blue Planet? Because most of the Earth is water!
地球大部分是是水,所以被叫做「藍色星球」。
But, we don't know very much about the ocean. It's easy for scientists to
study mountains and land animals... but learning about the ocean is hard!
了解海洋比研究陸地生物還難!所以,目前對海洋認知並不多。
We can't swim deep in the ocean like a whale. We can go down in submarines...
but submarines are sometimes too noisy, and they scare away sea creatures.
人類早就用潛水艇探索海底,但它的聲音和形狀,會把海洋生物嚇跑!
So, scientists are now using a new robot to study the deep ocean.
It looks like a squid! That's really cool. 科學家用像烏賊的機器人來研究深海。
Yeah! The robot squid also moves just like a real squid moves. I think this
is a great idea. Other sea creatures will look at it and think, "Hmm... it's
just a squid". 其他的海洋生物看到,只會覺得那是一隻烏賊。
With this squid-robot, scientists can study the deep oceans and discover new
and amazing things.
Two-thirds of the Earth is water. We still have a lot to learn... and who
knows? Maybe the squid robot will find new kinds of fish or... old ships with
treasure! 地球有三分之二是水,說不定烏賊機器人會發現許多海洋知識以及寶藏!
Wow! Now I'm getting really excited! This squid robot could really teach so
much about our "Blue Planet."
