猎户座飞船

尽管最近几年NASA的预算得到了大量的削减，但是在2006年的时候给该实验室拨款61亿美元用以研发猎户座飞船。

Despite massive NASA budget cuts recently , NASA gave the lab $ 6.1 billion in 2006 for Orion 's construction .

范德比尔认为猎户座飞船是NASA最富雄心的飞船，而且将在未来30年内带领人类进行太空探索。NASA希望猎户座飞船能够完成从探月到火星探险等任务。

Orion , Vanderbiltwrites , is " NASA 's most ambitious crewed vehicle ever " and will " carry the human space program for the next 30 years . " NASA hopesOrion will be able to complete everything from lunar exploration to Marsmissions .

张柏楠表示，目前全世界的新一代载人飞船中，只有美国的猎户座飞船具备执行载人登月任务的能力。

Among the world 's new manned spacecraft , only the US ' Orion spacecraft is capable of carrying out manned moon landing missions , Zhang said .

预算中的6.51亿美元将用于支持猎户座飞船和波音为名为“太空发射系统”的登月任务建造的火箭。

An allotment of $ 651 million will be used to support the Orion Spacecraft and the rocket that Boeing is building for the moon mission -- called the Space Launch System or SLS .

在史密森学会8月份的《航天与航空》杂志中，汤姆·范德比尔特测试了NASA最新的猎户座宇宙飞船，该飞船将比以往任何飞船都要深入太空中去。

In the August issue of Smithsonian 's Air & Space magazine , Tom Vanderbilt tests out NASA 's new Orion spaceship , which will go deeper into space than anyspaceship has before .

根据计划，猎户座将于2017年进行首次太空探险，到时猎户座飞船将首次与NASA的新空间发射系统相结合。

Orion'sfirst exploration mission , which will be the first to combine Orion with NASA'snew SpaceLaunch System , is scheduled for 2017 .
