可以去太空漫游！美国轮状太空旅馆将于2025年建成（双语）

　　去太空漫游一直是很多人的梦想。美国一家基金会近日公布了将打造的太空旅馆的设计，这个被设计成轮子形状的旅馆酷似斯坦利·库布里克在《2001太空漫游》中塑造的空间站。这家太空旅馆将于2025年建成。

　　It's 50 years since man first stepped on the moon, and we're still harboring dreams of escaping life on Earth for the mysteries of space.

　　距离人类第一次登上月球已经50年了，而我们仍然怀揣着逃离地球的梦想，去探索神秘的太空。

　　If a career as an astronaut isn't for you, perhaps the promise of a sojourn in a space hotel might be appealing.

　　如果你不适合当宇航员，也许在太空旅馆住一段时间会很有吸引力。

　　Californian company The Gateway Foundation has released plans for the Von Braun Station, a cruise ship-style hotel floating among the stars.

　　美国加州盖特韦基金会公布了冯·布劳恩太空旅馆的建设计划，这是一家漂浮在群星之间的游轮风格的酒店。

　　The aim is to get the hotel off the ground by 2025 and make it fully operational for travel by 2027.

　　这家太空旅馆将在2025年前建成，并在2027年前全面投入运营。

　　According to digitally rendered video and images released by the Gateway Foundation, the station resembles a rotating wheel, comprised of 24 modules, orbiting the Earth.

　　根据盖特韦基金会发布的数字渲染视频和图像，冯·布劳恩太空旅馆外形酷似一个旋转的轮子，由24个模块组成，环绕地球运行。

　　Tim Alatorre, senior design architect at the Gateway Foundation, says the rotating wheel would create a simulated gravity.

　　盖特韦基金会的高级设计建筑师蒂姆·阿拉托雷说，太空旅馆会产生模拟重力。

　　"The station rotates, pushing the contents of the station out to the perimeter of the station, much in the way that you can spin a bucket of water -- the water pushes out into the bucket and stays in place," he tells CNN Travel.

　　他告诉美国有线新闻网旅游频道说：“太空旅馆会旋转，把其中的物品推到外围，就像你旋转一桶水一样——水会被推到桶里，并保持原位。”

　　The Gateway Foundation's hotel design is named for Wernher von Braun, an aerospace engineer who pioneered rocket technology, first in Germany and later in the United States.

　　酒店设计是以航空航天工程师沃纳·冯·布劳恩的名字命名的。布劳恩先后成为德国和美国的火箭技术先驱。

　　"The basic physics of the station haven't changed since the 1950s, the way the station rotates," says Alatorre.

　　阿拉托雷说：“自从20世纪50年代以来，空间站的基本物理结构和旋转方式从未改变。”

　　The main difference is the modern materials -- new metal alloys, carbon composites, 3D printing and launch pad technology that, says Alatorre, make a space hotel more probable in our current era.

　　他说，主要的不同之处在于现代材料——新的金属合金、碳复合材料、3D打印和发射台技术，使太空旅馆在当今更可能实现。

　　Space tourism is an expensive game -- Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic plans to launch passengers into sub-orbital space at the hefty sum of $250,000 per person, per trip.

　　太空旅行是昂贵的游戏——理查德•布兰森的维珍银河计划以每人每次25万美元(约合人民币177万元)的高价将乘客送入亚轨道空间。

　　Meanwhile, Aurora Station says a stay in its space hotel will cost an eyewatering $9.5 million.

　　与此同时，奥罗拉空间站表示，在其太空旅馆住宿将耗资950万美元。

　　Price wise, in the early phases the Von Braun hotel will also be catering to those with dollars to spend, but the foundation is hoping to make it equivalent to "a trip on a cruise or a trip to Disneyland."

　　就价格而言，在早期阶段，冯·布劳恩太空旅馆也将为富有的顾客提供服务，但该基金会希望，它能等同于“一次游轮之旅或迪士尼乐园之旅”。
