皇后大学贝尔法斯特的Alan Fitzsimmons教授将在欧洲航天局(欧空局)赫拉飞行任务中发挥关键作用,这是旨在防止小行星与地球碰撞的第一个行星防御举措。 Professor Alan Fitzsimmons from Queen's University Belfast will play a key role in the European Space Agency's (ESA) Hera mission, the first planetary-defense initiative aimed at preventing asteroid collisions with Earth. Hera 从佛罗里达州的肯尼迪航天中心发射，将研究 Didymos-Dimorphos 小行星系统，并评估 NASA 的 Dart 任务的影响。 Launching from Florida's Kennedy Space Centre, Hera will study the Didymos-Dimorphos asteroid system and assess the impact of NASA's Dart mission. 该飞行任务旨在开发偏转潜在危险小行星的技术,并将利用先进技术进行深空导航。 The mission seeks to develop techniques for deflecting potentially hazardous asteroids and will utilize advanced technologies for deep space navigation.
