Sample version:
We've just had some news about the mission to explore Mars. Scientists have just heard a message from a spacecraft. It has landed Mars. And it has discovered people there. But they haven't sent us a message because they can't hear us. They prefer life on Mars, so they haven't visited us on Earth. They also made TVs, radios, cars and so on with the other spacecraft. I think they are having a good time.
