中国在南极的中山站现在追踪空间碎片,用新的光学望远镜探测到星际物体3I/ATLAS。
China's Zhongshan Station in Antarctica now tracks space debris and detected interstellar object 3I/ATLAS with new optical telescopes.
中国在南极的中山站现在拥有一个光学望远镜网络,能够非常精确地跟踪空间碎片,并探测到星际物体3I/ATLAS,这是中国深空观测的一个里程碑。
China’s Zhongshan Station in Antarctica now hosts a network of optical telescopes that track space debris with high precision and have detected interstellar object 3I/ATLAS, marking a milestone in China’s deep-space observation.
该系统,包括4台150毫米和1台310毫米望远镜,在跟踪低地球轨道碎片方面达到50米以下的准确度,每天最多可探测10次目标。
The system, including four 150-mm and one 310-mm telescope, achieves under-50-meter accuracy in tracking low-Earth-orbit debris and detects targets up to 10 times daily.
它支持碰撞警告,并与中国的2025-2027年空间安全计划保持一致。
It supports collision warnings and aligns with China’s 2025–2027 space safety plan.
该站还通过研究受巨型恒星影响的空间的碳循环,提高亚毫米天文学水平。
The station also advanced submillimeter astronomy by studying carbon cycles in space influenced by massive stars.
未来的计划包括扩大Kunlun站配备光学和红外望远镜的能力。
Future plans include expanding capabilities at Kunlun Station with optical and infrared telescopes.
