美国天文学会

科学家在加利福尼亚州圣地亚哥举行的美国天文学会会议的新闻发布会商表示，他们于2015年12月26日再次探测到了“时空结构中的涟漪”--引力波。

The gravitational waves , ripples in the fabric of spacetime , were observed for a second time on Dec. 26 , 2015 , at 03:38:53 UTC , scientists said at a press conference during the American Astronomical Society conference in San Diego , California .

这两组天文学者都在西雅图的美国天文学会（AmericanAstronomicalSociety）的会议上公布了自己的研究结果。

Both groups announced their findings at a meeting of the American Astronomical Society in Seattle .

他们周一在阿拉巴马州伯明罕的美国天文学会行星科学分会的一次会议上公布了他们的发现。

They were to announce their discovery Monday in Birmingham , Ala. , at a meeting of the American Astronomical Society 's division of planetary sciences .

美国天文学会（总部设于华盛顿）发言人里克·弗因伯格说：现在，对于住在城市的人来说，要安全舒适地观星而不必担心黑夜里会发生什么，就只能在度假胜地观星了。

For people who live in the cities , the only way to see the stars in safety and in comfort without worrying about what might happen in the dark is at a resort , said Rick Fienberg , a spokesman for the American Astronomical Society , based in Washington .

甚至于以往的太阳活动极大期相比逊色不少。“与之前的五六次太阳活动周期相比，这一次势头太弱了”，这是耶鲁大学的天文学家塞巴尼·巴苏在于本月3日波斯顿举行的第24届美国天文学会上作出的评论。

In fact , this latest solar max has been a bit of a dud . " Compared to say the five or six previous cycles , this is really weak . " That 's astronomer Sarbani Basu of Yale University , at the 224th meeting of the American Astronomical Society in Boston on June 3rd .

这个科研组研究了美国宇航局开普勒太空望远镜最早识别的行星候选者。改组的科学家还在华盛顿举行的美国天文学会年会上提出他们的发现。

The team , whose findings were presented at the American Astronomical Society 's annual meeting in Washington DC , studied planetary candidates first identified by Nasa 's Kepler space telescope .
