Daniel stands in the set of TVO Kids News with two guests.

Daniel is in his twenties, with short curly brown hair and wears glasses, jeans, and a blue and gray TVO Kids sweatshirt.

Daniel says WELCOME BACK TO
TVOK NEWS.
I'M YOUR NEWS ANCHOR,
DANIEL,
AND I HAVE A VERY
SPECIAL GUEST TODAY...
I HAVE TWO SPECIAL GUESTS,
ACTUALLY.
I HAVE ARUSHI AND ARTASH,
HEY GUYS.

They say HI.

Arushi is eight, with shoulder length slightly wavy brown hair and wears a headband, a printed dress in pastel shades and a gray and pink jacket.

Artash is 11, with short brown hair and wears jeans and a red T-shirt.

Daniel says OKAY, SO HOW OLD
ARE YOU GUYS?

Arushi says I'M 8.

Artash says AND I'M 11.

Daniel says 8 AND 11, AND YOU GUYS MADE
THIS AMAZING PROJECT.
WHAT IS IT,
TELL US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT IT.

Artash says WELL, THIS IS
A REPRESENTATION OF
THE TRAPPIST
PLANETARY SYSTEM.

A caption reads "Trappist-1 ExoPlanetary system."

Artash says SO THE TRAPPIST PLANETARY SYSTEM
IS A SYSTEM JUST LIKE OURS,
JUST LIKE OUR SOLAR SYSTEM.

Daniel points at concentric led strips surrounding a glittery sphere and says EXACTLY, OKAY.
SO WHAT DO THESE
REPRESENT?

Artash says THESE REPRESENT
THE ORBITS OF THE PLANETS.

Daniel says THE PLANETS.
SO THERE'S... SEVEN PLANETS?

Artash says YEAH.
SO THE SYSTEM IS
40 LIGHTYEARS AWAY.

Daniel says 40 LIGHTYEARS AWAY,
THAT'S REALLY FAR.

Artash says AND IT HAS SEVEN PLANETS.

Daniel says AND SEVEN PLANETS.
AND WHAT IS THIS GLOBE HERE?

Artash says AND THIS IS THE STAR.

Daniel says THIS IS THE STAR,
SO THAT IS KINDA LIKE
THE SUN, CORRECT?

Artash says YEAH, AND SOME OF THE PLANETS
ACTUALLY HAVE WATER.

Daniel says REALLY? SO THAT MEANS THERE
MIGHT BE LIFEFORMS, POSSIBLY?
FINGERS CROSSED.

Artash says COULD BE.

Daniel says COULD BE, OKAY.

Artash says SO A REALLY INTERESTING THING
ABOUT THIS SYSTEM
IS THAT ALL OF THESE PLANETS
MOVE IN HARMONIC MOTION.

Daniel says HARMONIC MOTION,
SO WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

Artash says SO FOR EXAMPLE, EACH TIME
THE OUTERMOST PLANET
WILL GO ONE ORBIT, THE INNERMOST
PLANET WILL GO 12 ORBITS.

Daniel says 12 ORBITS,
SO THE INNERMOST IS PRETTY FAST,
WHEN IT'S ORBITING.

Artash says YEAH, BECAUSE IT HAS
A LESSER DISTANCE TO TRAVEL.
AMAZING. SO WHAT DID YOU DO
FOR THIS, ARUSHI?

Arushi says I LIKE MUSIC,
SO I DECIDED TO COMBINE MUSIC
WITH THIS PROJECT.
I USED A SOFTWARE
CALLED VIPER,
LIKE IT CAN FIND OUT THE SPEED
OF THESE LIGHTS USING THAT.

Daniel says WOW, SO DOES EACH PLANET
HAVE A DIFFERENT SOUND OR TONE?

Arushi says YEAH.

Daniel says THAT'S AWESOME.

Arushi says A DIFFERENT PITCH.

Daniel says A DIFFERENT PITCH.
AND ARTASH, WHAT DID YOU DO?

Artash says WELL, I GOT THE DISTANCE
BETWEEN THE PLANETS,
AND PUT THE LIGHT STRIPS
ACCORDINGLY.
SO THE GREATER THE PLANETS HAVE
DISTANCE BETWEEN EACH OTHER,
HAVE A GREATER SPACE
BETWEEN EACH OTHER HERE,
AND THE PLANETS WITH
SMALLER DISTANCES,
HAVE SMALLER DISTANCES HERE.

Daniel says WOW, SO THERE'S A LOT OF MATH
INVOLVED, A LOT OF BUILDING.
SO DID YOU DO THIS
FOR SCHOOL?

Artash says NO, WE DO LOTS OF PROJECTS.

Daniel says YOU DO LOTS OF PROJECTS
ON YOUR OWN,
SO THIS WAS DONE
ON YOUR SPARE TIME?

Artash says YEAH, AND I DID
THE PROGRAMMING FOR THIS.

Daniel says YOU DID THE PROGRAMMING,
OKAY.

Artash says YEAH, SO I HAVE TO
PROGRAM ON ARDUINO
TO MAKE THE LIGHTS FLASH.

Daniel says OKAY, SO CAN WE GET
TO THE DEMONSTRATION?

Artash says YEAH.

Daniel says TOTALLY.
OKAY, TELL ME WHEN.
ONE, TWO, THREE,
GO.
(CHIMING)

The orbits start twinkling and changing colours to the beat of a chime.

Daniel says SO THAT'S THE
OUTERMOST ORBIT.

Artash says YEAH, AND IT'S JUST THESE
PLANETS HAVE FASTER ORBITS.

Daniel says SO IT GETS
FASTER AND FASTER.

Artash says YEAH,

Daniel says AND SO THEY BLING FASTER.
THAT IS SO COOL, IT'S LIKE
SUCH A HARMONIOUS SOUND.
HOW LONG DID IT
TAKE YOU TO MAKE?

Artash says IT TOOK A FEW WEEKS
TO MAKE THIS.

Daniel says ONLY A FEW WEEKS?
WELL, THAT IS SO INCREDIBLE.
I HOPE YOU GUYS KEEP MAKING MORE
AND MORE PROJECTS LIKE THIS.
THANK YOU SO MUCH,
ARTASH AND ARUSHI.
THIS IS AMAZING.
TVO KIDS,
THAT'S ALL FROM
TVOK NEWS.
I'M YOUR NEWS ANCHOR, DANIEL,
AND THAT'S WHAT'S HAPPENING.
