China’s space program intensifies
中國加強太空計劃
China’s space projects have entered a stage of high-intensity development and launching, an aerospace expert in Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center said on Sunday.
酒泉衛(wèi)星發(fā)射中心的一位航天專家在周日表示，中國的太空計劃已經(jīng)進入了高強度開發(fā)和發(fā)射的新階段。
While preparation work for the launch of Shenzhou-8 is in its final stages, testing on another satellite is going on at the assembly and testing center, 1.5 kilometers away from the launch pad.
隨著神舟八號發(fā)射任務(wù)的準(zhǔn)備工作進入最后階段，另一顆衛(wèi)星的的測試工作已經(jīng)在裝備和測試中心有條不紊地展開。該測試中心離發(fā)射臺有1.5公里的距離。
China launched 15 rockets to send 20 satellites into space in 2010, comparable numbers to the United States and Russia, historically the world’s two most prolific launchers of spacecraft, according to Yuan Jiajun, deputy general manager of China Aerospace and Technology Corp.
據(jù)中國航天科技集團的副總經(jīng)理袁家軍介紹，中國在2010年發(fā)射了15枚火箭，將20顆衛(wèi)星送入了太空，即使與歷兩大宇宙飛船發(fā)射多產(chǎn)國美國和俄羅斯相比，也是相當(dāng)可觀的數(shù)據(jù)。
