Hey there! Welcome to Life Noggin!
大家好！欢迎来到大脑洞开的生命奇想！
So theres no denying that Space is incredible,
不可否认，太空有惊人的魔力，
it’s a massive and mysterious thing that the world is still trying to understand!
它广袤无垠，神秘莫测，我们仍在试图加深对它的理解。
With so many people wondering about the final frontier there are gonna be a few myths that popup.
好多人还在好奇，太空的边界在哪里，接下来介绍几个太空的秘密。
Life Noggin is here to debunk 5 of those myths and give you some far out info in the process!
生命奇想为你揭开5个太空的秘密，更多信息，敬请期待。
Let’s do this.
开始吧！
Myth Number 1
第一个秘密！
1. There is a dark side of the Moon, perhaps brought about by the Pink Floyd album,
1. 月球有黑暗的一面，让人想到平克·弗洛伊德的专辑，
there’s a myth that says that one side of the Moon is constantly bathed in light while
有一个说法是月亮的一面一直沐浴在光明中，
the other is in constant darkness. This isn’t true at all.
另一面一直黑暗。大错特错！
The Moon is tidally locked to the Earth so one side always faces our planet.
月球被地球潮汐锁定，所以朝向我们的一直是那一面。
This means it orbits its own axis once per Earth month.
也就是说，地球上每过一个月，月球旋转一次，
So it has a day and a night, just a day that lasts two Earth weeks and a night that lasts the same.
所以它也有昼夜，只是白昼相当于地球上的两周，黑夜也是。
2. NASA takes up almost a quarter of the government budget.
2. 美国国家航空和宇宙航行局（NASA）拿到了政府大约四分之一的预算。
NASA has never had that much money. Not by a long shot.
NASA没那么多钱。从来没有！
The peak of NASA’s budget was in 1966 when the agency was pushing to complete the Apollo lunar landing by the end of the decade.
NASA预算最多的时候是1966年，当时他们忙着在1970年之前完成阿波罗登月计划，
At that point, NASA was getting 4.4 percent of the GDP;
那时候，NASA拿到了GDP的百分之四点四；
funding started dropping the next year and has been hovering on average around the 1 percent mark.
第二年拨款就开始变少，平均下来一直在百分之一左右。
The agency has never had 25 percent of the GDP.
它从没有拿到GDP的百分之二十五。
But can you image what we could do if we did have that kind of money for space exploration!?
但是想象一下，如果我们有那么多钱进行太空探索，我们会怎么做！
Are you listening government?
听到了吗，政府！？
3. Astronauts buried their poo on the Moon.
3. 宇航员在月球上会把便便埋起来。
this is definitely a weird one, but one people have wondered about, because you generally
这个就比较奇怪了，但也是大家一直好奇的，因为一般人
don’t leave your… leavings out in the open. But NASA didn’t teach its astronauts
不会把便便……留在露天的环境里。但是NASA没有教宇航员把便便埋起来。
to bury their poop. They didn’t even send them up there with much of a bathroom.
他们把宇航员送到月球的时候，没有准备厕所。
During Moonwalks, NASA actually diapered its astronauts.
NASA给月球漫步的宇航员准备了尿片。
It was the simplest solution; use the diaper then wash off one back in the lunar module.
这个办法操作简单，用完尿片在登月舱里直接洗掉。
Luckily, none of the astronauts used their Moon diapers, because there was no hot water in the lunar module.
不过幸好，宇航员们都没用尿片，因为登月舱没有热水。
4. Space Has a Sound
4. 太空有声音。
Every science fiction movie with an epic space battle has classic laser sounds and the explosion of those lasers blasting apart spaceships.
描绘壮烈空间战的科幻电影都会有经典的激光器的声音，激光器爆炸还会顺带炸毁飞船。
But the reality is there’s no sound in space.
但是实际上太空里不会有声音的。
Sound is actually a wave, and that wave needs a medium, like the Earth’s atmosphere, to go from the source of the sound to your ears.
声是一种波，这种波需要地球大气层之类的介质，才可以从源头传到人的耳朵。
In a vacuum, without any medium for sound waves to travel through, there is no sound.
真空里没有声波传输需要的介质，因此不会有声音。
Sorry George Lucas, Space battles are really really silent.
对不起，乔治·卢卡斯，空间战真的真的没声音。
5. As children, we all grew up seeing the Sun as a yellow circle in a blue sky over a field.
小时候，我们都会把太阳看成大地上方蓝色天空里的黄色的圆。
Or, if you were a more creative kid, it was a quarter circle in the corner of the paper with yellow rays streaming out of it.
比较有创意的孩子还会把它看成一张纸角上的四分之一圆，金黄的光潺潺流出。
But the Sun isn’t yellow, and it doesn’t actually shoot out perfect yellow rays.
但是太阳不是黄色的。它发出的也不是纯黄色的光。
That yellow hue is just an effect of our atmosphere.
那个黄色是大气层在作怪。
In fact, the Sun is actually white.
其实，太阳是白色的。
That’s because it’s a main sequence star with a temperature of about 10,340 degrees Fahrenheit,
因为它是主序星，温度达到10340华氏度。
which means it could only be white. Cool huh?
也就是说，它只能是白色的。厉不厉害？
