美国航天局在8月面临一项决定,即是否由于技术问题,通过波音星轮船或SpaceX轮船龙将国际空间站宇航员Williams和Wilmore送回。 NASA faces a decision in August on whether to return ISS astronauts Williams and Wilmore via Boeing's Starliner or SpaceX's Crew Dragon due to technical issues.
美国航天局在8月底前将面临一项决定,即是将宇航员Suni Williams和Butch Wilmore从国际空间站(ISS)通过最初运输他们的波音星轮号航天器送回,还是选择SpaceX的船龙号作为返回船。 NASA faces a decision by the end of August on whether to return astronauts Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore from the International Space Station (ISS) via Boeing's Starliner spacecraft, which initially transported them, or opt for SpaceX's Crew Dragon as the return vessel. 美国航天局官员力求在8月底前作出这一选择,因为宇航员由于与他们的波音星轮号航天器的技术问题而延长了在空间的停留时间。 NASA officials aim to make this choice by the end of August, as the astronauts have extended their stay in space due to technical issues with their Boeing Starliner spacecraft. 这两名宇航员最初计划短暂停留一周以上,但将其空间时间延长到两个月以上。 Both astronauts were initially scheduled for a brief stay of over a week but have extended their time in space to over two months.
