Hey, DW!

0:00:590:01:01

-Hey!

-Oh...!

0:01:020:01:05

Albert Einstein was a famous scientist.

0:01:080:01:11

Before he was famous, he was just a kid with a lot of questions.

0:01:110:01:15

-I have a question.

-DW, can't you see I'm busy?!

0:01:150:01:19

Ahem, when Einstein was just three years old,

0:01:220:01:25

he wanted to know things - like when his baby sister was born.

0:01:250:01:29

It is nice, but where are its wings?

0:01:290:01:32

BABY CRIES

0:01:320:01:35

As he got older, he asked questions that nobody could answer.

0:01:350:01:39

Could I ever catch up to a beam of light?

0:01:390:01:42

As an adult, he kept on asking questions

0:01:460:01:50

that changed the way we think about the universe.

0:01:500:01:53

-Can I ask MY question now?

-DW!

0:01:530:01:56

What's so important that you have to interrupt me?

0:01:560:01:59

-When's the show gonna start? You've been talking forever!

-Oh!

0:01:590:02:04

All right, everyone, line up to go outside.

0:02:110:02:15

I'll go first! I'm the line leader!

0:02:150:02:17

DW, why don't we give Emily a chance to be the line leader?

0:02:170:02:21

You were line leader at lunch. Only a few more days till career day.

0:02:210:02:27

You should be thinking about your presentation on what you wanna be

0:02:270:02:32

when you grow up.

0:02:320:02:33

I already know what I want to be. A ballerina.

0:02:330:02:37

I wanted to be one all my life.

0:02:370:02:40

-Tommy and I wanna be cowboys when we grow up.

-No, policemen!

0:02:400:02:46

-Cowboys!

-Policemen!

0:02:460:02:48

How about you, DW? What are you going to be?

0:02:480:02:53

First!

0:02:530:02:55

DW, it's MY TV time!

0:02:570:03:01

'Launched in 1990 from the space shuttle Discovery...'

0:03:010:03:05

I'm watching a fascinating programme on space exploration.

0:03:050:03:09

'The images have astounded and even confounded

0:03:090:03:13

-'astronomers and the public... '

-Oh, it's just news!

0:03:130:03:18

Look, it's footage of Neil Armstrong walking on the moon.

0:03:180:03:23

I was Arthur's age when this was live on TV.

0:03:230:03:25

Everyone wanted to be an astronaut. Imagine what it felt like

0:03:250:03:30

to be the first person to set foot on the moon!

0:03:300:03:33

'One small step for man...

0:03:330:03:36

'One giant leap for mankind...'

0:03:360:03:40

Who knows... Maybe one day, you will get to someone walk on Mars.

0:03:400:03:45

-You mean that no-one has ever done that?

-Not yet.

0:03:450:03:48

Good! Then I'll be the first!

0:03:480:03:51

-LAUGHING

-DW, an astronaut?!

0:03:510:03:55

Now there's a crazy idea!

0:03:550:03:59

What's so crazy about it? I'm only four and I can already count to 10!

0:03:590:04:04

DW is right, Arthur.

0:04:040:04:06

-There's no reason why she couldn't be the first person on Mars.

-See?!

0:04:060:04:10

If you'll excuse me, I have to start preparing.

0:04:100:04:14

Let's see - juice, cookies...

0:04:150:04:19

What else should I bring? Oh, yeah...a co-pilot.

0:04:190:04:23

Where to, Captain?

0:04:230:04:26

-Mars!

-Oh, goodie. Are we spending the night?

0:04:260:04:29

-I didn't bring my toothbrush.

-No, this is just a test mission

0:04:290:04:34

to see what it might be like. I won't be going till I'm older.

0:04:340:04:40

There must be a light switch in here somewhere.

0:04:400:04:43

Load the pinkilator! Set the gigatron to 10!

0:04:430:04:47

Start the caliopalops.

0:04:470:04:49

Check!

0:04:500:04:51

Check!

0:04:510:04:52

Ready for blast-off!

0:04:520:04:55

RUMBLING

0:04:550:04:58

We did it! We're the first people ever to land on Mars!

0:05:010:05:06

I couldn't have done it without you, Nadine.

0:05:060:05:10

Now for the best part.

0:05:100:05:12

This is one small step for me,

0:05:140:05:16

and one big leap for everyone else.

0:05:160:05:19

Oh...!

0:05:200:05:22

-That wasn't such a small step.

-It's beautiful.

0:05:230:05:28

Do you think anybody lives on Mars?

0:05:280:05:30

I dunno, but if someone is here, they should be throwing us a parade.

0:05:300:05:35

It's not every day that someone from Earth comes to visit them.

0:05:350:05:40

-THUMP! What's that sound?

-The welcoming committee?

-Where's it coming from?

0:05:400:05:45

-I dunno.

-AGH!

0:05:450:05:48

Cal!

0:05:520:05:54

Let go of my space hatch, you dumb dog!

0:05:540:05:58

Whoa!

0:05:580:05:59

Great! Now I have to build a whole new spaceship!

0:05:590:06:04

Nice job, Timmy. Read him his rights!

0:06:080:06:11

Stinky Pete, you're under arrest for not wearing a hat.

0:06:110:06:16

-You have the right to sit in this wagon.

-What are you doing?

0:06:160:06:20

Practising for Career Day. We've decided to be cowboy-policemen.

0:06:200:06:25

Hey, she's not wearing a hat! You're under arrest!

0:06:250:06:29

Fine, I'm under arrest. Do you have something I could use as a spaceship

0:06:290:06:34

like a big box? I've decided to be the first person to go to Mars.

0:06:340:06:39

THEY GASP

0:06:390:06:44

Don't do it, DW! You don't wanna go to Mars!

0:06:400:06:44

-Martians live there!

-We saw a show on TV all about it!

0:06:440:06:48

Really? What are Martians like?

0:06:480:06:51

They're big lizards!

0:06:510:06:54

Some are as big as skyscrapers!

0:06:540:06:57

They never sleep, but they have to eat all the time!

0:06:570:07:01

Sometimes they even try to eat each other.

0:07:010:07:04

-And you know why Mars is called the Red Planet?

-No.

0:07:060:07:10

Because Martian blood glows red in the dark.

0:07:100:07:14

-Wait here. I'll get you that box.

-Actually, I don't need it. Thanks.

0:07:140:07:19

-Oh!

-DW, we're gonna do some star gazing. It's a beautiful night.

0:07:250:07:29

We may even be able to see Mars. Come on.

0:07:290:07:32

Um...OK.

0:07:320:07:35

-Whoa, the moon looks so big!

-Isn't it beautiful?!

0:07:370:07:41

Here, let me see if I can find Mars for you.

0:07:410:07:45

It must be tiny if you need a telescope.

0:07:450:07:48

It's a lot bigger than the moon. It's just a lot farther away.

0:07:480:07:53

There it is! Take a look.

0:07:530:07:56

I'll get us something to munch on.

0:07:560:07:59

All I can see is a small dot that sort of...

0:07:590:08:03

It really is red!

0:08:030:08:06

Of course it is. That's why they call it the Red Planet.

0:08:060:08:10

They were right! I can see the Martian blood!

0:08:100:08:14

-Martian blood?

-From the big lizards

0:08:140:08:17

-who are as tall as skyscrapers...

-And never sleep, right?

0:08:170:08:23

But they have to eat all the time and eat each other?

0:08:230:08:26

Right. How come everyone knows this but me?

0:08:260:08:30

It's from a movie called Attack of the Sleepless Martian Dinosaurs!

0:08:300:08:36

-Buster made me watch it.

-I should have known better!

0:08:360:08:41

But if there are no Martian dinosaurs, who lives up there?

0:08:410:08:47

No-one knows for sure if anything lives on Mars.

0:08:470:08:50

But even if there is life, it wouldn't be as big as a skyscraper.

0:08:500:08:55

Hello! Anybody home?

0:08:570:09:00

Oh... CHIRPING

0:09:000:09:03

So, you still wanna go to Mars?

0:09:060:09:08

-You're not the first to be afraid of Mars and Martians.

-I'm not?

-Look.

0:09:110:09:16

It's called War Of The Worlds and it was written by HG Wells.

0:09:160:09:20

In the story, aliens take over our planet.

0:09:200:09:23

But it's not true. Right?

0:09:230:09:26

Nope, but in 1938, a man named Orson Welles did a radio broadcast

0:09:260:09:31

of the story and a lot of people thought it was really happening.

0:09:310:09:36

They're here!

0:09:360:09:37

We're being attacked by aliens!

0:09:370:09:40

AGH!

0:09:400:09:43

-Were they scared?

-You bet. But the more you know about something,

0:09:440:09:49

the less scary it is. Here's a picture of the real Mars.

0:09:490:09:53

It looks like a big rusty desert. How can anything live there?

0:09:530:09:58

I know just where we can do a little research.

0:09:580:10:01

OK, so we know that it'll take me over two years to get to Mars,

0:10:270:10:32

and that there'll be almost nothing there,

0:10:320:10:35

but I still don't know if there's any life on it.

0:10:350:10:38

-Scientists haven't answered that yet.

-It might as well be me.

0:10:380:10:43

OK, it's time for our Career Day presentation.

0:10:430:10:47

Who would like to go first?

0:10:470:10:49

OK, DW, you can start.

0:10:490:10:51

When I grow up, I'm gonna be the first person to set foot on Mars.

0:10:540:10:58

And the first to be eaten by a Martian lizard!

0:10:580:11:02

Timmy, shh!

0:11:020:11:04

-Mars is called the Red Planet because...

-Martian blood glows red!

0:11:040:11:10

-Giant lizards?

-Blood?

-I don't wanna hear this!

0:11:100:11:13

Please, settle down.

0:11:130:11:16

-Are they coming here? Are they going to get us?

-WHISTLE

0:11:160:11:21

Do you wanna hear about the real Mars or just the made-up story?

0:11:210:11:26

As I was saying, Mars is called the Red Planet

0:11:260:11:30

because the rocks there have lots of iron in them.

0:11:300:11:34

When iron gets rusty, it turns red. ALL: Oh...

0:11:340:11:39

People used to think this was a big face.

0:11:390:11:42

But you can see that it's just a bunch of holes.

0:11:420:11:46

Finally, there's one thing everyone wants to know...

0:11:460:11:50

Is there any life on Mars? Well, I'm sorry to say we just don't know.

0:11:500:11:56

AW!

0:11:560:11:58

But the good news is, I'm going to find out for you all.

0:11:580:12:02

I'll be the first to do it. Thank you.

0:12:020:12:05

That was a wonderful presentation, DW.

0:12:070:12:11

Absolutely fascinating!

0:12:110:12:14

Tommy and Timmy, would you like to go next?

0:12:140:12:16

Um...I think we need more time.

0:12:160:12:20

-We're changing what we wanna be.

-We wanna be astronauts, too!
