天文学家

Scutum has a fascinating history. Astronomer Hevelius named it in 1683 for Jan III Sobieski. He was the Polish king that lead his armies to victory in the Battle of Vienna.

盾牌座的来历很精彩。1683年天文学家赫维留为纪念波兰国王 Sobieski 三世，在维也纳战役中他带领军队取得了胜利。

Eventually, astronomers hope to be able to analyse the atmospheres of smaller planets more akin to the Earth, and the new study is a big step in that direction, says Seager.

西格指出，归根到底天文学家们希望能够分析较小的、更类似地球的行星大气，而这项新研究向那个目标跨出了一大步。

They would have been taught, and proudly, that almost 2,000 years ago an astronomer named Chang Heng invented the world's first seismoscope.

他们应该被骄傲地告知，大约在2000年前，一位叫张衡的天文学家发明了世界上第一个地震仪。

Astronomers know the clusters are not stars because they are much brighter than a star would be at that distance, 250 million light-years away in the constellation Serpens .

天文学家知道它们不是恒星，是因为它们比在这个距离上的恒星要亮得多——距离地球2.5亿光年的巨蛇座。

The Harvard Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics astronomers studied two dusty regions of star formation in the constellation Serpens Cauda, located 15,000 light years away.

哈佛大学史密森天体物理中心的天文学家们研究了位于15000光年之外巨蛇座尾部的两个富含星际尘埃的恒星形成区域。

For example, six fractional sexagesimal places of a day was used in their specification of the length of the year, although they were unable to measure such a small fraction of a day in real time.

古希腊天文学家，包括希巴谷和托勒密，定义太阳日的24分之一为时。以六十进位细分时，使得秒是一太阳日的86，400分之一。

Such a project often marks the transformation from "beginner" to "advanced amateur," from casual sightseer to cosmic fanatic.

这即使从"初学者"到"高级业余天文学家"，从偶然的观星者到宇宙的痴迷者的转变。

Recently, two Italian astronomers and an American environmental scientist created a world map of the night sky. The map shows that North America, Western Europe and Japan have the greatest amount of light pollution.

最近，有两个意大利天文学家和一个美国环境科学家制做出了一张夜空世界地图，这张地图表明了北美州，西欧和日本有大量的光污染。

Now I can subtly produce that my smartphone and have the entire skyscape at my disposal to make me sound like a regular Galileo.

现在我可以巧妙的在我的智能手机上显示那些星群，而整个星空任我掌控，感觉我就像伽利略般合格的天文学家。

Astronomers have developed a smorgasbord of other ways of tracking the effect of dark energy.

天文学家们发展出一种探测暗能量的新方法。

I will endeavour to find you some assistance.

我尽力帮你找人帮忙。

At first I only know bruck is the idol of American younglings, afterwards I returned back to Taiwan ,even in Beijing last year ,I saw her poster everywhere, I was so surprised at her charm.
