What's Your Address?

I know where my house is on my street. I know where my street is in my town. I know where my country is on a map of the world. But sometimes, I wonder. "Where is the earth?"

Imagine if you were trying to tell an alien from another planet your address!

"l live on 24 Flower Lan, Rome, Italy, Earth."

"Where is that?" it might ask. That's a difficult question to answer.

We live in a galaxy called the "Milky Way". It gets its name from all the stars in it. There are so many stars that it looks white, just like milk.

Our tiny planet sits near the edge of the Milky Waygalaxy, with millions of other stars and planets. There are billions of galaxies too!

Maybe one day, we will include our planet in our addresses!

你的地址是什么?

我知道我家在街上的什么地方。我知道我在镇上的街道在哪。我知道我的国家在世界地图上的什么位置。但有时，我想知道。“地球在哪里?”

想象一下，如果你试图告诉一个来自另一个星球的外星人你的地址!

“我住在地球村意大利罗马花巷24号。”

它可能会问:“那在哪里?”这是个很难回答的问题。

我们生活在一个叫做“银河系”的星系中。它的名字来自于里面所有的星星。星星太多了，看起来就像牛奶一样白。

我们的小小星球坐落在银河系的边缘，与其他数百万颗恒星和行星在一起。也有数十亿个星系!

也许有一天，我们会把我们的星球写在我们的地址里!
