His uncle, a famous astronomer who had worked there for more than 20 years, received a small meteorite(陨石) sample brought back from Mars by China’s latest unmanned space probe launched last year. While Ben was carefully wiping the dusty surface of the sample with a clean soft cloth, he noticed a tiny moving spot that he couldn’t explain at all.
He immediately told his uncle about this strange discovery. They put the sample under a high-power microscope and saw a strange single-celled(单细胞的)creature that no scientist had ever seen before. They sent the sample to the national space laboratory right away. After three days of careful and detailed research, scientists finally confirmed that it was a living microbe(微生物)from Mars.
This is the first time humans have found life on another planet. The whole world is extremely excited about this amazing scientific discovery. Now scientists are studying how this microbe can survive in Mars’ cold, dry and oxygen-free environment. They hope that this research will help us understand more about the origin of life in the universe and prepare for future human missions to Mars and other distant planets in our vast(浩瀚的)solar system. Many people also believe this discovery will change how we see ourselves in the vast universe.
