太阳天文学家

The bright star Procyon has been considered one of the best candidates for asteroseismology, on the basis of models and previous reports of p-modes detected in ground-based spectroscopy.

这样的压力波是天体地震学的基础，该学科是研究太阳内部结构的一个强大工具，所以天文学家认为同样方法也应适用于 Procyon。

Copernicus Polish astronomer who advanced the theory that the earth and other planets revolve around the sun, disrupting the Ptolemaic system of astronomy.

哥白尼，波兰天文学家，他提出地球及其它行星绕太阳运动的日心说，推翻了托勒密的天文学理论即地心体系。

For the first time, quaking inside a star other than our sun has been recorded.

天文学家们首次记录了太阳以外的恒星内部所发生的震动。

Astronomers think that about 2 solar masses of gas per year are transformed into stars in this galaxy.

天文学家认为，这个星系中的气体以每年2个太阳质量的速率形成恒星。

To begin with, astronomers agree, there is nothing special about the Sun and galactic center aligning in the sky. It happens every December with no physical consequences beyond the overconsumption of eggnog.

首先，天文学家一致认为，太阳和银河系中心点在天空中连成一线没什么特别，这种事情每年的12月份都会发生，除了蛋奶酒的需求大增之外没什么自然后果。

It's a puzzle that has bedeviled astronomers and theorists for years: Do massive stars form in the same way as our sun or by some other process?

这是一个困惑了天文学家和理论家多年的谜：巨型恒星跟我们的太阳是以同样方式形成的吗？莫非巨型恒星是以其他方式形成的？

The reality of the Maunder minimum has yet to be established, however, especially since the records that Chinese naked-eye observers of solar activity made at that time appear to contradict it.

然则，蒙德极小期的真实情形还有待于确定，尤其是因为中国用肉眼观察太阳活动的天文学家在那一时期所作的记录似乎与蒙德极小期相背悖。

Nor is life likely to exist on the newly discovered planet because it is only 5 million miles from Pegasus 51, so close that it whizzes around the star once every four days and must be super hot Nevertheless, the fact that astronomers have found a planet around a sun like star bolsters their belief that others must abound in the universe.

生命也不大可能存在于新近发现的那颗行星上，因为它与飞马星座51的距离只有500万英里，如此之接近使它每4天围绕这颗恒星飞速旋转一次，那必定是超热的。尽管如此，天文学家已发现有一颗围绕类似太阳的恒星运行的行星，这一事实支持他们这样的信念：宇宙中其他的行星必然是很多的。

"The layers of complexity required to maintain the resulting leaky illusion of local/remote transparency are reminiscent of the convoluted equations that pre-Copernican astronomers used to explain how the Sun and other planets revolved around the Earth."

复杂的分层需要维护漏洞百出的本地/远程的透明调用的幻觉，让人想起哥白尼之前的天文学家，是如何用复杂的等式来解释太阳，以及其他的星球是怎样绕地球旋转的。

I'm strongly against the death penalty — it's an eye for an eye.

我不赞成死刑——这是以牙还牙的报复行为。

And to get you the support you need, we're enlisting all elements of our national power: our diplomacy and development, our economic might and our moral suasion, so that you and the rest of our military do not bear the burden of our security alone.

并给你们所须的支援，我们正徵召国家所有各种的力量：我们的外交及发展，我们的经济力量与道德劝说，所以你们与其他军人不须要孤独地负起国家安全的责任。
