经济学人: 能够嗅到生命体征存在的行星勘测卫星

 

The advantage of this "transit" method is that it is well-suited to mass production.Kepler was designed to stare fixedly at a single patch of sky in the constellation of Cygnus, observing around 150,000 stars simultaneously.The consequential torrent of data can be used to draw statistical conclusions about the rest of the galaxy.It seems likely that every one of the Milky Way's hundreds of billions of stars sports at least one planet.Many of these are of a type unknown in the solar system.

译文

这种“中天”方法的优势在于非常适合大量成果产出。开普勒的设计目标是固定监控天鹅座星群中天空的一小块地方,同时观察约150000颗恒星。利用间接传输的数据流可得出关于星系剩余部分的统计结论。似乎有可能银河数千亿颗恒星中的每一颗都至少在一个行星中嬉戏。其中很多都是太阳系中未知的类型。

 

The most common in Kepler's data are "super-Earths"——rocky worlds intermediate in size between Earth and Neptune.Kepler also helped prove that "hot Jupiters" are common. These are gas giants which orbit implausibly close to their stars.Theorists, who would previously have argued that such planets were impossible,are still debating whether they are able to form in situ or whether they coalesce farther out in their stellar systems and then migrate inward,knocking other planets into deep space as they do so in a game of planetary billiards.

译文

开普勒数据中最常见的是“超级类地行星”——大小介于地球和海王星之间的多岩世界。开普勒还帮助证实了“热木星”的普遍性。它们是气体巨星,围绕距离它们非常之近的恒星轨道而行之前认为这些行星不可能存在的理论学家仍争辩它们是否能够在原地形成或是它们是否是在更远处的恒星系统中合成,然后再向内部移动,与其他行星相撞进入更深处的太空,就像在行星台球游戏中一样。

 

Kepler's biggest quarry was Earthlike planets at just the right distance around their stars for liquid water to exist on their surfaces.Several have turned up, but the search became harder in 2013, by which time two of the four gyroscopes that kept the telescope stable had broken.Kepler's engineers came up with an ingenious fix, relying on the radiation pressure exerted by sunlight to re-steady the craft.With its fuel depleted, no technological rescue is possible this time. But nothing succeeds like success. Exoplanets are now the hottest topic in astronomy.

译文

开普勒的最大猎物群是类地行星,它们与其恒星距离适当,这样液态水才能在它们的表面存在。已经找到了几个类地行星,但在2013年搜寻任务变得更加艰难,那时四个维持望远镜稳定的陀螺仪中,有两个已经损坏。开普勒的工程师想出了一个独创性的修补方法,依靠太阳外露的辐射压力重新稳定航空器。随着其燃料的耗尽,这一次再也没有可能的技术补救方法了。但是一事成功百事顺。现在外星行星是天文学界最热话题。

 

The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite, launched in April, is a Kepler-like mission designed to look for exoplanets in Earth's immediate neighbourhood.These might be amenable to detailed follow-ups from other, more powerful telescopes.In theory, it should be possible to sniff the air of such neighbours for signs of life, or even make rough maps of their surfaces.Two similar European missions are scheduled to launch in 2019 and 2026. Exoplanetology is just getting started.

译文

凌日系外行星勘测卫星于4月发射。它是一个开普勒类似的望远镜,其目的是为了寻找地球附近的外星行星。这些或许能够经得起来自望远镜后起之秀的详细的后续行动的考验。理论上,它应该能够嗅到附近生命体征的存在,甚至还能对它们的表面进行粗略的绘制。两个类似的欧洲望远镜计划于2019年和2026年发射。系外行星学刚刚起步。

 

注释

1.observe 观察

Olson also studies and observes the behaviour of babies.

奥尔森还研究并观察婴儿的行为。

 

2.draw conclusion 下结论

Can you draw any conclusion from his report?

你能从他的报告中得出任何结论吗?

 

3.migrate 移动

People migrate to cities like Jakarta in search of work...

人们为找工作而迁移到雅加达这类城市里。

 

4.be designed to 目的是

This project is designed to help landless people.

这一项目旨在帮助那些没有土地的人。
