NASA and its partners in the International Space Station have agreed in principle to let a 28-year-old South African become the second paying tourist on the orbiting outpost, according to the U.S. space agency. Internet magnate Mark Shuttleworth signed a contract on December 4th, 2001 with the Russian Aviation and Space Agency (RASA) to fly aboard a Soyuz space taxi to the station in April 2002, almost exactly a year after U.S. millionaire Dennis Tito became the first to experience space as a paying guest. NASA spokeswoman Kristen Larson said by telephone, "We've agreed in principle to the flight of Mr. Shuttleworth. However, there are some final details that need to be taken care of." Larson would not say what details needed resolving, but said the station's international partners, including the space agencies of Russia, Europe, Japan and Canada, had drafted a set of requirements for space travelers covering physical ability, psychological ability, language ability and length and appropriateness of training.
美國(guó)航天局說(shuō),國(guó)家航空航天局和它在國(guó)際空間站的合作伙伴已原則上同意,讓一位28歲的南非人成為第二名付費(fèi)的太空旅游者。2001年12月4日,因特網(wǎng)巨頭馬克•舒特沃斯與俄羅斯航空航天局簽訂了協(xié)議,他將于2002年4月搭乘Soyuz號(hào)太空的士到達(dá)空間站,這與首位付費(fèi)太空旅游者——美國(guó)巨富丹尼斯•蒂托的太空之旅相隔幾乎整整一年。 美國(guó)國(guó)家航空航天局女發(fā)言人克爾斯滕•拉爾森在電話中說(shuō):“我們?cè)瓌t上同意舒特沃斯先生的太空飛行,但還有一些最后的細(xì)節(jié)需要處理。”拉爾森不愿說(shuō)出哪些細(xì)節(jié)問(wèn)題需要解決,但她說(shuō)包括俄羅斯、歐洲、日本和加拿大航天局在內(nèi)的國(guó)際空間站合作伙伴已經(jīng)擬訂了一套對(duì)太空旅游者的要求條件,其中包括身體素質(zhì)、心理素質(zhì),語(yǔ)言能力及訓(xùn)練計(jì)劃的適度和長(zhǎng)度?!?
