Is There a Hidden ''Super-Earth'' Exoplanet Orbiting Our Closest Stellar Neighbor?

存在一個(gè)繞著離我們最近的恒星運(yùn)行的隱藏著的“超級地球”嗎？

?Scientists have found evidence of a new exoplanet candidate orbiting our closest stellar neighbor, Proxima Centauri.

?科學(xué)家們已經(jīng)發(fā)現(xiàn)了繞著離我們最近的恒星——比鄰星運(yùn)行的一顆系外行星。

?This exoplanet candidate, Proxima c, likely has a mass six times that of Earth.

?這顆系外行星叫做比鄰c行星，它的質(zhì)量差不多是地球質(zhì)量的六倍。

?But it''s unlikely that life would survive on the planet, given its frigid temperatures.

?但是看上去在那個(gè)行星上沒有生命存在，因?yàn)槟抢锏臏囟忍土恕?br/>

But because Proxima Centauri is a relatively dim star, Proxima c is likely to be an extremely frigid world. Temperatures on the planet could dip as low as -388 degrees Fahrenheit, Space.com reports. It''s unlikely we''d find life on such a chilly world.

但是由于比鄰星是一顆相對暗淡的恒星，所以比鄰星c行星可能是一個(gè)極度寒冷的世界。這顆行星上的氣溫可能會(huì)低至零下388華氏度?；蛟S我們不可能在如此嚴(yán)寒的世界里找到生命的跡象。

An international team of researchers analyzed 17 years worth of data from the HARPS (High Accuracy Radial Velocity Planet Searcher) and the UVES (Ultraviolet and Visual Echelle Spectrograph)—both of which are installed on European Southern Observatory telescopes in Chile. The scientists noticed that Proxima Centauri experienced an unexplained wobble that could be explained by the gravitational tug of another planet.

一個(gè)國際研究團(tuán)隊(duì)分析了17年來自位于智利的歐洲南方天文臺的HARPS光譜儀和紫外可見分光光度計(jì)的數(shù)據(jù)?？茖W(xué)家們注意到比鄰星正在經(jīng)歷無法解釋的不穩(wěn)定期，這可能是由于另一顆行星對它產(chǎn)生的重力場造成的。

For now, Proxima c remains only an exoplanet candidate as scientists train additional planet-hunting instruments on the star system to confirm the obxt''s existence. But such a startlingly discovery so close to home would show just how much more there is to learn about the stars lying in our cosmic backyard.

現(xiàn)在，比鄰星c星只是入選了可能宜居的系外行星的候選名單，因?yàn)榭茖W(xué)家們還在用行星觀測設(shè)備來確認(rèn)這顆星球是否存在。但是這樣一個(gè)驚人的發(fā)現(xiàn)（這顆行星離我們的地球如此之近）也提醒著我們那些離我們的星系近的那些星球還有很多值得我們?nèi)ヌ剿鞯牡胤健?br/>

What causes a planet to be tidally locked?

是哪些原因會(huì)導(dǎo)致一顆行星出現(xiàn)潮汐鎖定現(xiàn)象呢？

It makes no sense to call it a super earth when the gravity is a crushing six times greater and it’s too cold to support life

如果一顆行星的重力糟糕到是地球的六倍大并且上面的氣溫嚴(yán)寒到不適合生命存活，那么是不適合將其稱之為“超級地球”的。

NASA will send the Enterprise at warp speed to look for life.

美國宇航局會(huì)迅速讓一些企業(yè)探索外太空、尋找其它星球上的生命。

How many new planets have been discovered in recent years? Yet they still want to teach our kids in school theres only 9 planets. How many other lies are they teaching our kids?

在最近幾年有多少新行星被發(fā)現(xiàn)了呢？可我們還是在學(xué)校里教我們的孩子們說行星只有9顆。那些老師還在教我們的孩子多少其它的錯(cuò)誤的知識呢？

Is there a news article based on actual facts anymore??

世界上還有沒有哪篇文章是基于事實(shí)的呢？

An astronomer I know has told me that anything with more than about 2.5 times the mass of Earth will not be a rocky planet (like Earth), but will instead be an ice giant or a gas giant. It has to do with the nature of planet formation, but there aren''t going to be any ginormous earth-like rocky planets with water and land and atmosphere remotely like ours.

我認(rèn)識的一名天文學(xué)家對我說任何天體，只要它的質(zhì)量超過了地球的2.5倍，它就一定不會(huì)是一顆巖石固體行星（就像地球這樣），在這么大的質(zhì)量條件下，它可能會(huì)是一顆充滿了冰雪的巨行星或者是一顆氣態(tài)巨行星。我們必須考慮到行星形成的一些規(guī)律，宇宙中不存在像我們的地球一樣的巨大的類似于地球的擁有水和陸地和大氣層的其它行星。

I find it odd that suddenly we are finding a lot of earth like planets...... Did someone turn the drip feed disclosure tap up to run?

我們居然突然間找到了那么多像我們的地球一樣的行星，而且我們還不斷發(fā)現(xiàn)這種行星，這種事在以前從未有過。我覺得這種事實(shí)在是很奇怪。難道是有人打開了行星觀測的“滴水的水龍頭”嗎？
