NASA’s Mar rover Opportunity arrived at the Endeavour crater this summer - a source of clay-like rocks which could show the area had been habitable. 这个夏天，美国宇航局的火星探测器机遇号抵达“奋进”撞击坑，这里是火星粘土状岩石的来源处，显示出这片区域曾适于居住。 The 13-mile drive from Victoria crater had taken three years. But the tiny craft had been documenting its progress, step by step. 从维多利亚陨石坑开始的13英里的路程已经走了3年，但是这个微小的太空船一步一步的记录着它的前行。 The rover team took an image each Martian day when the rover travelled. The video compiles these 309 images - along with 'sound' from the planet. 探测器在火星旅行是，小组成员每天都为火星拍摄一张照片。这段视频将这309张图片汇编在一起，还伴随这这个星球的“声音”。 The video shows the rim of the Endeavour crater becoming visible as the Rover neared its goal - but the drive did include detours, as Opportunity had to drive round large expanses of treacherous terrain. 视频显示，随着探测器越来越接近其目标，“奋进”撞击坑的边缘变得越来越清晰可见。但是这段路程也包括绕路，机遇号不得不绕开大范围的危险地形。 There's also a soundtrack recorded by the Rover - although don't expect to hear the sounds of Martian wind. The team recorded data from the Opportunity's accelerometers, and sped up the low-frequency noise 1,000 times. The result is best described as a sort of grinding noise. |
