10 Fridays are awesome.

10個星期五是真棒。

Okay, maybe that's a bit of fake news.

好吧，也許這是一個有點假的新聞。

But NASA's newest voyage of discovery isn't a rover that launched last July 30th, was scheduled to arrive on Mars yesterday, and scientists were hoping that the perseverance mission would help them figure out if life was ever present on the Red Planet.

但NASA最新的發現之旅並不是去年7月30日發射的漫遊車，原定於昨天抵達火星，科學家們希望這項鍥而不捨的任務能幫助他們弄清楚紅色星球上是否曾經有生命存在。

The mission's cost is $27 billion.

該任務的費用為270億美元。

It was scheduled to last two years.

計劃持續兩年。

If all goes as planned during that time, the Perseverance Rover is set to travel 15 miles, studying Mars climate and geology and collecting samples of Martian soil that could one day be brought back to Earth if another mission succeeds in sending a spacecraft to pick them up.

如果在此期間一切按計劃進行，"鍥而不捨 "號探測器將行駛15英里，研究火星氣候和地質，並收集火星土壤樣本，如果有一天另一項任務成功地派遣航天器來取樣，這些樣本就可以帶回地球。

But we're getting ahead of ourselves.

但是，我們已經超越了自己。

The rover first had to undergo in extensive check out period, a kind of booting up on Mars.

探測器首先要經歷廣泛的檢查期，也就是在火星上的一種啟動。

It had unfolded download software.

它已經展開了下載軟件。

It's got to deploy a $23 million drone helicopter whose purpose is to find out if powered chopper flight is possible on Mars, and before any of that could happen, perseverance had to make a safe landing on the Red Planet a preview of a perilous descent on the Red Planet After months traveling through space, it's what NASA describes as seven minutes of terror theme US space agencies.

它得部署一架價值2300萬美元的無人直升機，其目的是找出動力直升機是否有可能在火星上飛行，在這一切發生之前，毅力必須在紅色星球上安全著陸，在紅色星球上危險下降的預覽經過幾個月的太空旅行，這是美國宇航局描述的七分鐘恐怖主題美國航天機構。

Perseverance Mission plunges into the Martian atmosphere.

鍥而不捨的任務投入火星大氣層。

It over 19,000 kilometers an hour.

它超過19000公里的時速。

It breaks with tremendous force, lurching downwards as it endures temperatures of more than 1000 degrees Celsius.

它在承受1000多攝氏度的高溫時，以巨大的力量斷裂，向下顛簸。

Theun.

Theun.

It deploys a parachute, and at just the right moment, it releases of rover retro rocketing towards a treacherous terrain That all has to happen in about seven minutes, and it all has to happen autonomously.

它部署了一個降落傘，在正確的時刻，它釋放了漫遊車的復古火箭，向著險峻的地形飛去。 這一切都必須在7分鐘內發生，而且必須自主地發生。

This is one of the most difficult maneuvers that we dio in the space business.

這是我們在太空事業中最困難的演習之一。

You know, almost 50% of the spacecraft that have been sent to the surface of Mars have failed, and so we know we have our work cut out for us.

你知道，幾乎有50%的航天器被送到火星表面都失敗了，所以我們知道我們的工作很艱鉅。

If the daring landing succeeds, NASA's Perseverance Rover will touch down at Jess Zero Crater, the site of a Martian lake more than 3.5 billion years ago.

如果這次大膽的登陸成功，美國宇航局的 "毅力號 "探測器將在傑斯零號隕石坑著陸，這裡是35億多年前的火星湖泊所在地。

Their perseverance will help prepare for human life in the future and search for signs of ancient life of the past.

他們的堅持將有助於為未來的人類生活做準備，並尋找過去遠古生命的跡象。

You will also collect rock samples that will hopefully return to Earth for the very first time.

你還將收集岩石樣本，希望能第一次回到地球。

The two year mission is unlike any other made possible by discoveries from Nasa's four other rovers on Mars.

這項為期兩年的任務與美國國家航空航天局在火星上的其他四輛探測器的發現不同。

Our journey has Bean from following the water to seeing whether this planet was habitable, so finding complex chemicals.

我們的旅程中，豆子從跟著水走，到看這顆星球是否適合居住，所以找到了複雜的化學物質。

And now we're at the advent, often entirely new phase returning samples, an aspirational goal that has bean with the science community for decades.

而現在我們正處於臨界點，往往是全新的階段返回樣本，這是幾十年來科學界一直豆的一個理想目標。

Perseverance also promises new perspectives of the red planet.

鍥而不捨，也有望從新的角度看待這顆紅色星球。

The Rovers, microphones and 23 cameras can share sights and sounds never seen or heard before.

漫遊者、麥克風和23臺攝影機可以分享從未見過或聽過的景象和聲音。

Also along for the ride, a drone sized helicopter named Ingenuity.

一同前來的還有一架無人機大小的直升機，名為 "Ingenuity"。

It'll be the first to try flying on another planet.

這將是第一個嘗試在其他星球飛行的人。

The new technology may help direct the Perseverance Rover, or even be a scout for future probes, as NASA's latest mission to Mars charts new realms of exploration.

新技術可能會幫助指導 "毅力號 "探測器，甚至成為未來探測器的偵察員，因為美國宇航局最新的火星任務描繪了新的探索領域。

But as you heard a moment ago, getting the rover down safely is the tricky part.

但正如你剛才所聽到的，讓漫遊車安全降落是棘手的部分。

Mars is about 127 million miles away from Earth right now.

火星現在距離地球約1.27億英里。

It takes 11 minutes for radio signals to travel from Earth to Mars, and the Perseverance Rover landing process was set to happen over seven minutes.

無線電信號從地球傳到火星需要11分鐘，而 "鍥而不捨 "號探測器的著陸過程被設定為超過7分鐘。

That's why it had to happen autonomously without scientists manually making adjustments on its way down.

這就是為什麼它必須自主地發生，而不需要科學家們在它下來的路上手動進行調整。

Yesterday evening, NASA said that perseverance appeared to land safely on the Red Planet various spacecraft that NASA and the European Space Agency have in orbit.

昨天傍晚，美國宇航局表示，毅然出現在紅色星球上安全降落的各種航天器，美國宇航局和歐洲航天局在軌道上。

Overmars were set to fly over there over and check up on its health CNN dot com.

奧弗瑪斯準備飛過去，檢查一下它的健康狀況CNN點com。

We'll have the latest info on the mission status.

我們會有最新的任務狀態資訊。

12th Trivia.

12日的小事。

What is America's coldest city outside of Alaska?

阿拉斯加以外的美國最冷的城市是什麼？

Grand Forks, North Dakota.

北達科他州，大福克斯

Fargo, North Dakota International Falls, Minnesota or Marquette, Michigan Once you get outside Fairbanks, Alaska, the coldest city in the U.

法戈，北達科他州的國際瀑布，明尼蘇達州或馬奎特，密歇根州 一旦你走出費爾班克斯，阿拉斯加，在美國最寒冷的城市。

S is Grand Forks, North Dakota.

S是北達科他州的大福克斯。

A historic blast of Arctic air is finally moving out of the United States after unleashing a Siris of ice and snow storms across the country.

一股歷史性的北極空氣在釋放出全國各地的冰雪風暴Siris後，終於離開了美國。

For those who are ready for winter to end, the good news is that forecasters expect the jet stream toe lift to the north, and what that means is that millions of Americans could feel warmer temperatures by the weekend.

對於那些準備好冬季結束的人來說，好消息是，預報員預計噴氣式氣流將向北抬升，這意味著數以百萬計的美國人可能會在週末前感受到更溫暖的氣溫。

But the hard hit state of Texas is still reeling, with many people still without electricity and or running water following a Siris of deadly winter storms there and mawr.

但重災區德克薩斯州仍然在繅絲，許多人仍然沒有電力和或自來水後，致命的冬季風暴有和毛利的Siris。

Cold, snowy weather could still be ahead for the northern Plains states, the upper Midwest and the Northeast, which is typical this time of year.

北部平原各州、中西部偏上地區和東北地區仍可能會出現寒冷、降雪天氣，這是每年這個時候的典型特徵。

There's some fascinating and frozen side effects toe all this.

這一切都有一些令人著迷和冰凍的副作用。

Here's CNN 10 Contributor Tyler Molden.

這是CNN 10號特約記者Tyler Molden。

I'm sure you've heard all about blizzards in the polar vortex, Carl, but what about ice pancakes, bites or jams?

我相信你一定聽說過極地漩渦中的暴風雪，卡爾，但冰煎餅，咬傷或果醬呢？

Well, it's a thing, and I'm suddenly hungry, too.

好吧，這是一件事，我突然也餓了。

But these are unappetizing and can cause some real serious issues.

但是這些都是不討好的，會造成一些真正嚴重的問題。

During the winter, an ice jam occurs when pieces of floating ice build up and block the flow of water in rivers and streams and turn, causing the water to back up, potentially leading to flooding.

在冬季，當江河、溪流中的浮冰塊堆積起來，阻擋了水流，併發生轉動，導致水流倒灌，有可能導致洪澇災害。

For example, earlier this month, the National Weather Service in Detroit had an issue of flood warning because an ice jam was causing water to flood homes and businesses, which could only be broken up by the Canadian and US coastguards.

例如，本月初，底特律國家氣象局曾發佈洪水預警，原因是冰塞導致水淹沒了房屋和企業，只能由加拿大和美國海岸警衛隊來破除。

Ice pancakes tend to only be seen in the Arctic, but when the temperature drops below zero in the lower 48 for a few days, like what we're dealing with this week.

冰餅往往只在北極地區出現，但當氣溫下降到零度以下時，在48度以下的地區會出現幾天，就像我們本週要面對的情況。

Well, we can see it, too.

好吧，我們也可以看到它。

It occurs when a body of water starts to form ice.

當水體開始結冰時就會發生。

Chunks of ice will bump against each other, creating elliptical shaped dis with round edges, giving each one a flat round appearance.

冰塊之間會相互碰撞，形成橢圓形的圓邊盤，使每個冰塊都呈現出扁圓形的外觀。

Hence the name ice pancakes.

是以，冰煎餅的名字。

Ice balls are more common than pancakes.

冰球比煎餅更常見。

You can actually see these every winter near shorelines of colder climates.

其實每年冬天在氣候寒冷的海岸線附近都能看到這些。

These formed by getting caught in the crashing waves near the edge of a beach, forcing them to continually spend over and over and over leading to um, or spherical look.

這些形成的陷入在崩潰的波浪中靠近海灘的邊緣，迫使他們不斷地花費超過和超過導致嗯，或球形的外觀。

Lastly, and this one is probably my favorite ice volcanoes.

最後，而這個可能是我最喜歡的冰火山。

Ice volcanoes form over legs by waves, forcing water or slush to erupt high in the sky through mounds of ice.

冰火山通過波浪在腿上形成，迫使水或泥漿通過冰堆在高空噴發。

It made for quite the scene last year off of Lake Michigan, while we're on the subject of volcanoes but talking about the hot kind now, what's probably the world's oldest continuously active volcano erupted this week.

去年在密歇根湖附近的火山爆發時，我們正在討論火山問題，但現在討論的是熱火山，本週可能是世界上最古老的持續活躍的火山爆發了。

Mount Etna once again put on a fireworks show in the Italian island of Sicily.

埃特納山再次在意大利西西里島上演了一場煙花秀。

Lava fountain sprayed, magma flowed.

熔岩噴泉噴射，岩漿流淌。

Ash rained down on the surrounding region.

周邊地區下起了灰雨。

There were no reports of serious injuries or damage.

沒有關於重傷或損失的報告。

But imagine waking up at one o'clock in the morning and thinking it's raining outside when what you hear is actually ash falling on your roof.

但試想一下，在凌晨一點鐘醒來，以為外面在下雨，其實聽到的是灰燼落在你的屋頂上。

That's how our friend Sean McCarthy described it.

我們的朋友Sean McCarthy就是這麼描述的。

He teaches with the Department of Defense education activity in Sicily, and he sent us these pictures yesterday.

他在西西里島的國防部教育活動中任教 他昨天給我們發了這些照片。

Close up views of the magnificent Mt.

近距離欣賞壯麗的嵩山。

Etna Super Swim Brothers kind of sounds like an underwater version of Super Mario Brothers.

埃特納超級游泳兄弟》有點像水下版的《超級馬里奧兄弟》。

But on the Bismarck High School Boys Swim Team in North Dakota, 12 of the 26 athletes are brothers, as in brothers.

但在北達科他州俾斯麥高中男子游泳隊中，26名運動員中有12名是兄弟，就像兄弟一樣。

Specifically, we're talking about Braxton, Isaac, Austin, Garrett, Bennett, Bryce Jackson, Connor, Josiah, Micah, Blake and Max.

具體來說，我們說的是Braxton，Isaac，Austin，Garrett，Bennett，Bryce Jackson，Connor，Josiah，Micah，Blake和Max。

It's like cheaper by the dozen in the pool and the competitive spirits high because none of these guys wants to lose to his brother.

這就像在游泳池裡一打一打的便宜，競爭精神高漲，因為這些人都不想輸給他的兄弟。

Does that threaten their brotherly love?

這是否會威脅到他們的兄弟之情？

They're still their brothers keeper.

他們還是他們兄弟的守護者。

And while the goggles might have them wondering, O brother, where art thou?

雖然護目鏡可能會讓他們疑惑，兄弟啊，你在哪裡？

They're still there to help each brother bear the brothers, Um, burden of competition, saying, Brother, let me be your shelter.

他們還在那裡幫助每一個兄弟承擔兄弟們，嗯，競爭的重擔，說，兄弟，讓我做你的避風港。

With the bond of brothers flowing strongly through this band of brothers.

隨著兄弟的情誼在這群兄弟中強烈流淌。

Oh, brother, today's shoutout goes out to Qs i International School of Key She now Moldova.

哦，兄弟，今天的呼聲是Qs i國際學校的關鍵她現在摩爾多瓦。
