>China launches Mars probe
'天问一号'启程奔赴火星
China launched its first Mars probe Tianwen-1 on a Long March-5 rocket from the Wenchang Space Launch Center in Hainan province on Thursday, marking the start of the nation's planetary exploration program.
7月23日,我国首个火星探测器"天问一号"搭载长征五号火箭在海南文昌航天发射中心成功发射,标志着我国迈出行星探测计划的第一步。
If everything goes according to schedule, the 5-metric ton Tianwen-1, which consists of two major parts - an orbiter and a landing capsule - will travel more than 400 million kilometers over nearly seven months before getting captured by the Martian gravitational field, the China National Space Administration said.
国家航天局表示,"天问一号"总质量5吨,主要由环绕器与着陆巡视器两部分组成,如果一切按计划进行,"天问一号"在经过4亿多公里、近7个月的长途奔袭后将被火星引力所捕获。
Several mid-course and deep-space correction maneuvers will be made during the spaceflight to make sure the probe is precisely aimed at the red planet.
飞行途中需要进行数次中途修正和深空机动来修正飞行路径,以确保探测器精确地将目的地瞄向火星。
After the probe enters Mars orbit, it will revolve around the planet for two to three months to investigate the landing capsule's preset landing site before descending to release the landing capsule, which will gradually drop through the Martian atmosphere.
"天问一号"进入火星轨道之后,将绕火星运行两三个月,对预设着陆点进行探测,之后才会进行降轨控制,释放着陆巡视器,后者将逐渐进入火星大气。

>US closes Chinese consulate
