  • Hello and welcome to 6 Minute English, I'm Sophie.

  • And I'm Neil.

  • Sophie, did you see the beautiful sky last night?

  • No, I went to bed early.

  • Why?

  • I was wondering if there was life out there.

  • You mean life on other planets?

  • Planets?

  • That's just science fiction, Neil.

  • It isn't.

  • People are fascinated by life on other planets for a good reason.

  • You believe in little green men?

  • Not necessarily, but possibly.

  • Well, Mars is our closest neighbour in the solar system and the subject of today's show.

  • And that brings me on to our usual quiz question.

  • How long is a day on Mars?

  • Is it about A, 5 hours, B, 25 hours, or C?

  • 45 hours.
