“ACE将探索太阳系内一切物质的来源,对来源的成分进行研究,包括其中有多少碳、多少氮、多少氧以及这些成分的同位素,例如同正常的碳相比较,其中有多少重碳。”这是负责这次太空探索的美国宇航局气流推进实验室的斯通博士在介绍他们的ACE,ACE是先进综合探测器的英文缩写。探测器将收集来自太阳及宇宙深处的粒子,目的是了解构成宇宙、地球以及地球上人类的一切物质到底来自何方,碳、氮、硅和氧这些常见元素是如何形成的以及它们怎么到了银河系这个地方,形成了太阳、地球以及太阳系内的其它行星。
“The ACE will explore the source of everything in the solar system and study the components of the source, including how much carbon, how much nitrogen, how much oxygen, and the isotopes of these components, such as how much heavy carbon it contains as compared to normal carbon.” Dr. Stone, NASA’s Airflow Propulsion Laboratory responsible for the space exploration, introduced their ACE, an acronym for Advanced Integrated Detectors. The detector will collect particles from the sun and the depths of the universe in order to understand exactly where all the elements that make up the universe, the earth, and human beings on Earth originate, and how common elements such as carbon, nitrogen, silicon and oxygen are formed and how they reach the Milky Way This place forms the sun, the earth, and other planets in the solar system.
