美載人“龍”飛船返回地球

The SpaceX Crew Dragon "Endeavour" spacecraft carrying two NASA astronauts parachuted to a splashdown in the Gulf of Mexico off the coast of Florida on Sunday, completing a two-month mission to the International Space Station (ISS).

搭載兩名美國(guó)航天局(NASA)宇航員的美國(guó)太空探索技術(shù)公司(SpaceX)奮進(jìn)號(hào)“龍”飛船在完成為期兩個(gè)月的國(guó)際空間站任務(wù)后，8月2日返回地球，濺落在佛羅里達(dá)州海岸的墨西哥灣。

When the spacecraft splashed down off the coast of Pensacola, Florida at 2:48 pm EDT Sunday, the SpaceX recovery vessel GO Navigator was waiting at the landing zone.

美國(guó)東部時(shí)間14時(shí)48分，飛船濺落在佛羅里達(dá)州彭薩科拉海岸，SpaceX回收船GO Navigator在著陸區(qū)等待。

The recovery teams then opened the hatch and retrieved NASA astronauts Robert Behnken and Douglas Hurley, according to NASA live broadcast.

NASA的直播畫面顯示，回收小組打開(kāi)艙門，NASA宇航員羅伯特·本肯和道格拉斯·赫爾利被抬出艙。

The return of the test flight with the two astronauts from the ISS marks the first splashdown of an American crew spacecraft in 45 years, said NASA.

NASA表示，此次載人試飛任務(wù)中，兩名宇航員成功從國(guó)際空間站返回，這標(biāo)志著45年來(lái)美國(guó)載人飛船首次以濺落方式返回地球。

It also wrapped up the test flight for the first commercially owned and operated crewed spacecraft under NASA's Commercial Crew Program.

這也代表了NASA商業(yè)載人項(xiàng)目下首個(gè)由私營(yíng)企業(yè)建造和運(yùn)營(yíng)的飛船承擔(dān)的載人試飛任務(wù)的圓滿成功。
