英汉例句

• The choice of the name Kepler is timely, for 2009 is the 400th anniversary of two of the most momentous events in astronomy.

  2009年是天文学历史上最重要的两大事件400年的周年纪念，选定「开普勒」做望远镜的名字也是应景之作。

• Astronomers are just beginning to find potentially habitable worlds. And NASA「s Kepler satellite should turn up more soon-including, perhaps, some that look even more like Earth.

  天文学家才刚刚找到几颗有可能适于居住的行星。美国国家航空航天局开普勒卫星很快就能发现得更多——也许其中一些与地球更为相似。

• He」s using Kepler data to do his age dating too, but he「s not focusing on individual stars; instead he」s looking at star clusters.

  他也利用开普勒天文望远镜的数据做年龄测算，但他并不侧重于个别恒星，而是针对一些星团。

• And NASA「s Kepler satellite should turn up more soon-including, perhaps, some that look even more like Earth.

  美国国家航空航天局开普勒卫星很快就能发现得更多——也许其中一些与地球更为相似。

• Most of the big planet announcements over the past year or two have come from the Kepler space mission, which looks for the slight dimming as a planet passes in front of its star.

  在过去一两年中，大部分发现大型植物的公告是来自开普勒太空任务，其方法是搜寻植物在太阳前经过时那稀薄的浅影。

• 「As Kepler discovers more and more planets by the day, we can hopefully scan through those and work out if this is unique or if all hot Jupiters are very dark,」 Kipping said.

  「随着开普勒日复一日发现越来越多的行星，我们希望能监测它们，并搞清楚出究竟这颗行星是个特例，还是所有炽热的木星类行星都非常暗？」基平说。

• Using the W. M. Keck Observatory in Hawaii, the Kepler team made precise measurements of minute shifts in the wavelengths of the host star」s light.

  利用位于夏威夷的凯克天文台，开普勒研究小组精确测量了主恒星光波波长的细微变化。

• It may be hard to imagine a planet blacker than coal, but that「s what astronomers say they」ve discovered in our home galaxy with NASA「s Kepler space telescope.

  很难想象一个行星比煤炭还要黑，但是宇航员们的确声称，他们通过NASA的开普勒太空望远镜在我们所处的银河系发现了这样一颗行星。

• Yet a rocky world named Kepler 10b is being described by astronomers as one of the greatest discoveries in history – a ‘missing link’ between Earth and the giant planets made of gas.

  一个命名为开普勒10的巖石星球被天文学家描述为历史上最伟大的发现之一—地球与巨大星球关于气体缺失了链接。

• Kepler will watch them all for three-and-a-half years and wait for the light from any of them to dim ever so slightly. That could be the sign of a planet passing in front of its sun.

  开普勒号将在轨道上运行三年半，等待着观测这十万行星光线的每一丝微乎其微的变化——那也许就是有行星从恒星前经过的信号。

• The Kepler data also give a tantalizing hint of a third transiting planet that sits scorchingly close to the star.

  开普勒的数据同时暗示，还有第三颗行星，位于非常靠近恒星的位置，几乎要被烤焦了。

• If several people flag the same star, the result is checked against the computer-derived results produced by the main Kepler team.

  如果多人标注了同一颗恒星，将与专门处理开普勒观测数据的计算机结果比对。

• Kepler is the first telescope to be designed to find Earth-sized planets that orbit in the 「habitable zone」 where temperatures are neither too hot nor too cold for water to remain in its liquid state.

  开普勒号则是第一个设计用来寻找地球大小的行星的望远镜，这些行星的轨道处于「可居住区域」内，温度既高也不太低，水份可以以液态形式存在，适宜生物生存。

• The Kepler team had to wait for three passes of the planet before upping its status from 「candidate」 to 「confirmed」.

  要让这颗行星的状态从「候选」到「证实」，「开普勒」小组必须确认三次「行星凌日」的过程。

• As Kepler showed, the Earth」s orbit is an ellipse, with the sun at one of the two focal points.

  开普勒曾表明，地球的轨道是一个椭圆，这个椭圆有两个焦点，太阳在其中一个上。

• The planet orbiting Kepler 10, by contrast, has an orbital period of a mere 20 hours and is so dense that it is probably made of iron.

  相比之下在开普勒-10轨道中发现的那颗行星其轨道周长只有20小时，而且密度很高以至于研究员估计行星内部是由铁组成的。

• Copernicus and Kepler built on the observations of Tycho Brahe and found that we were not the center of the universe; other planets revolved around the sun, and so do we.

  哥白尼和开普勒在第谷的观察数据基础上发现，我们并不是这个宇宙的中心，其它行星围绕着太阳旋转，我们的地球也是如此。

• It was something along these lines that Kepler was thinking when he borrowed this word from Latin.

• The results were announced at the Kepler telescope's first science conference, alongside the staggering number of new candidate planets.

  这一结果是在开普勒太空望远镜计划的首次科学大会上宣布的，会议上还公布了数量惊人的候选行星。
