Installing java with terminal gives me an error

Full terminal output:

gagaga@gaga-pc:~$ sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jdk
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package openjdk-8-jdk
gagaga@gaga-pc:~$                       

It seems like such a simple task, yet it just doesn't seem to function properly. Any suggestions are welcome and thank you in advance.

Package "openjdk-8-jdk" doesn't exist in Debian repositories, you may want to install "openjdk-11-jdk" instead.
$ sudo apt install openjdk-11-jdk
