On today’s broadcast, something mysterious happened after the launch of China’s Shenzhou 9 spacecraft last week. And it has set off a splash on the Chinese Internet.
播报今天新闻，有一些神秘的事情，发生在中国上周发射神州九号太空船之后。并且在中国互联网上引发关注。
Shortly after launch, observers saw this on a video broadcast from an infrared camera. These two fast-moving dots appear to be flying close to the spacecraft.
在发射后不久，观察者从红外线摄影机看到这个影像。这二个快速移动的点，似乎飞近太空船。
We can confirm that they are definitely UFOs; that is, unknown flying objects – of some sort. But are they alien spaceships? That’s what some Internet users are speculating.
我们能够证实：他们确实是幽浮，也就是，某一种的不明飞行物体。但他们是外星太空船吗？一些网友这么猜测。
Researcher Wang Sichao, at China’s Mt. Zijinshan Observatory, has been researching UFOs for more than 40 years. He says that based on the last 20 major UFO sightings, they tend to occur in years with end 1, 2, and 7. Like 2012. He believes these objects could be of alien origin. Or just airplanes. Or, he says, it could just be a couple of moths that flew in front of the camera.
研究者王西照（译名）研究幽浮超过40年。他说，基于过去主要出现幽浮的20次中，它们倾向发生在结尾为1, 2与7的年份，像是2012年。他相信这些物体可能是来自于外星人。或者只是飞机，或者，他说可能是一些飞过摄影机前的飞蛾。
The Internet may never know.
在互联网上，很难预料，可能什么都会发生。
