宇航員是一個(gè)很辛苦的職業(yè),也是我們敬佩的,他們?cè)趪?guó)際空間站的一切成果都是重大的突破,是對(duì)生存有幫助的。下面我們大家一起來看一下跨考網(wǎng)的小編為大家整理的關(guān)于2017考研英語閱讀材料:深空航行更近一步的一些資料,幫助大家更好的做好考研英語的復(fù)習(xí)備考工作。

Flower blooms in space for first time, bringing deep-space travel a step closer

首次太空花開 深空航行更近一步

In a historic first, a flower has bloomed in space.

一朵花在太空中完成了歷史性的綻放。

While such news may at first sound frivolous, possibly conjuring up images of astronauts taking time out from their usual duties to prettify the International Space Station with pleasing arrangements of pink chrysanthemums and cerise anemones, the consequences of the breakthrough are in fact of huge significance.

盡管這樣的新聞聽上去有些無聊,讓人們想起宇航員在日常工作之外用粉色菊花和鮮紅??b點(diǎn)國(guó)際空間站的場(chǎng)景。實(shí)際上這是一項(xiàng)具有重大意義的突破。

The experiment’s success spells good news for NASA’s long-term ambition of deep-space travel as it means astronauts embarking on such missions will be able to consume the produce of edible flowering plants, such as tomatoes.

這次花開意味著執(zhí)行任務(wù)的宇航員們將能夠食用番茄之類的開花可食用植物,因此這次實(shí)驗(yàn)為NASA長(zhǎng)時(shí)間對(duì)深空旅行的開發(fā)帶來好消息。

Astronauts aboard the ISS last year succeeded in growing lettuce in microgravity conditions, a feat that, with this latest breakthrough, suggests future space travelers had better really like salad if they intend to put their name down for a Mars trip.

去年登陸國(guó)際空間站的宇航員們成功地在微重力條件下培育了萵苣。這件功績(jī)加上本次最新的進(jìn)展,預(yù)示著未來想?yún)⒓踊鹦怯蔚奶章眯姓呔湍軌蛳碛玫绞卟松?/p>

Growing flowers in space is a far trickier proposition than other types of plant as they’re more sensitive to conditions and take longer to develop, NASA said.

NASA說,在太空中培育開花植物比培育別的品種更加棘手,因?yàn)檫@些植物對(duì)條件十分敏感,并需要更長(zhǎng)的時(shí)間來栽培。

Indeed, getting the zinnia flowers to bloom proved challenging for ISS astronaut Scott Kelly. The American has been updating his Twitter followers on the progress of the flowers, which were grown using Veggie, NASA’s specially designed “space garden.”

實(shí)際上,培育百日菊屬植物開花對(duì)空間站宇航員Scott Kelly來說極富挑戰(zhàn)。這位美國(guó)人在他的推特上記錄了他在NASA特別設(shè)計(jì)的“太空花園”Veggie里培育花朵的過程。

Kelly revealed last month that the experiment was in trouble after issues with humidity and air flow resulted in mold, causing some of the flowers to die.

上月,Kelly透露說由于濕度和氣流的供給而催生了霉菌,導(dǎo)致一些花朵枯萎,實(shí)驗(yàn)陷入困境。

Determined not to give up, the green-fingered astronaut carefully cut away the moldy parts and altered the flowers’ watering routine. The zinnias responded positively and over the weekend Kelly proudly showed off a photo (top) of “the first ever flowers grown in space.”

但這位精通園藝的宇航員并不愿放棄,他仔細(xì)地切除了發(fā)霉的部位,調(diào)整了花朵的澆灌程序。這些植物經(jīng)調(diào)整后長(zhǎng)勢(shì)喜人。周末,Kelly自豪地用照片展示了“首次在太空綻放的花朵”。

The fact that the experiment didn’t go exactly according to a plan will actually prove useful for scientists back on the ground.

雖然實(shí)驗(yàn)并未按照計(jì)劃進(jìn)行,但這實(shí)際上對(duì)地面的科學(xué)家?guī)砟髱椭?/p>

“While the plants haven’t grown perfectly, I think we have gained a lot from this,” NASA scientist Dr. Gioia Massa said, adding, “We’re learning both more about plants and fluids and also how better to operate between ground and station. Regardless of final flowering outcome, we will have gained a lot.”

NASA的科學(xué)家Gioia Massa博士說:“盡管植物沒有長(zhǎng)得很完美,我認(rèn)為我們從中受益匪淺。我們學(xué)到了更多關(guān)于植物、流體、以及如何在地球太空之間更好運(yùn)作的知識(shí)。”

The Veggie team member also said recently that the farther and longer humans travel from Earth, “the greater the need to be able to grow plants for food, atmosphere recycling and psychological benefits,” explaining that plant systems like this “will become important components of any long-duration exploration scenario.”

Veggie團(tuán)隊(duì)的成員最近也提到,如果人類在太空中進(jìn)行更遠(yuǎn)更久的航行,“那么就更需要栽培能夠食用、進(jìn)行大氣循環(huán)以及帶來心理愉悅的植物。”這解釋了為什么像這樣的植物系統(tǒng)“會(huì)成為長(zhǎng)期探測(cè)方案的重要組成部分”。

However, the scientists seem happy to take their time with the project – the first tomato seeds won’t be taken to the ISS until 2017 at the earliest.

然而,科學(xué)家們十分樂意把時(shí)間耗費(fèi)在這個(gè)項(xiàng)目上。第一批番茄種子最早在2017年可被帶上國(guó)際空間站。
