Did you know Taiwan has a space agency? It's called TASA. It does cool things!你知道台灣有太空總署 TASA 嗎? 他們會做些很酷的事情。
TASA sent two satellites into space. Satellites go around the Earth. They get

TASA 發射了兩枚人造衛星到太空，它們環繞地球，收集各項資料或是協助通訊。
The Taiwanese satellites are very small. They're thirty centimeters long, ten
centimeters tall, and ten centimeters wide!
這些人造衛星非常小，只有 30 公分長、10 公分高，10 公分寬!
TASA paid a company to take the satellites into space. One day, the company's
rocket took off. Two and a half hours later, the satellites were going around
and around the Earth!
TASA 請了一個公司用火箭發射衛星，火箭起飛後短短的 2
個半小時，衛星就開始繞著地球轉!
Taiwanese companies made these satellites. They want to enter the space
business. If their satellites work well, maybe they can!
這些衛星是台灣公司製造，他們想進入太空產業。如果衛星運作良好，他們就有機會！
One satellite looks at the ocean's color. The colors show where fish eat.
Finding where fish eat helps Taiwan's fishermen.
其中一個衛星觀察海洋的顏色，找出魚群都在哪裡覓食。這個資訊對台灣漁民很重要。
The other satellite sees if satellites in space are communicating with
machines on Earth.
