Have you ever wondered how one becomes a NASA astronaut? It begins with filling out an application.
你是否曾好奇過(guò)如何成為一名NASA宇航員?一切開始于填寫一張申請(qǐng)表。
The US space agency received more than 18,000 applications when it announced late last year that it was looking for a new class of astronauts.
去年末,美國(guó)空間管理局宣布招收新的宇航員班,自那時(shí)起,其已經(jīng)收到超過(guò)一萬(wàn)八千張申請(qǐng)表。
Selection Manager Anne Roemer said the process is no easy task.
人才篩選經(jīng)理Anne Roemer 稱,篩選工作并不簡(jiǎn)單。
“It’s very hard. We will do it very carefully. It starts by us reviewing all of the files to make sure that they meet the basic qualifications,and then we actually utilize our current team of astronauts to come in and review the files as well,"
“這很困難。 我們很謹(jǐn)慎地篩選。起初,我們需要檢查所有的文件,確保申請(qǐng)者符合基本要求。同時(shí),我們真的邀請(qǐng)了現(xiàn)任宇航員們參與進(jìn)來(lái),一起實(shí)施簡(jiǎn)歷篩選工作!
Applicants must be a U.S. citizen and have a bachelor’s degree in engineering,biological science, physical science, computer science or mathematics.They also need at least three years of related experience or at least 1,000 hours as a jet airplane pilot.
申請(qǐng)者必須為美國(guó)公民,具有工程學(xué)、生物科學(xué)、物理學(xué)、計(jì)算機(jī)或數(shù)學(xué)專業(yè)的學(xué)士學(xué)位。同時(shí),他們必須擁有至少三年的相關(guān)工作經(jīng)驗(yàn),或者擁有至少一千小時(shí)的噴氣飛機(jī)飛行員工作經(jīng)驗(yàn)。
Along with being able to pass a physical, NASA likes applicants to have certain personality traits.
除了需要通過(guò)體能測(cè)試,NASA對(duì)申請(qǐng)者們的性格也有一定期望。
“I think leadership, teamwork, the ability to both work on a team, lead a team, but also be a follower on a team.Communication certainly plays a role,so it’s some pretty common skills that I think translate into even other professions beyond being an astronaut..”
“我認(rèn)為,他們既需要有領(lǐng)導(dǎo)力,也需要學(xué)會(huì)團(tuán)隊(duì)合作。領(lǐng)導(dǎo)團(tuán)隊(duì)和跟隨團(tuán)隊(duì)都需要做到。毫無(wú)疑問(wèn),溝通扮演著重要的角色。因此,溝通是非常普遍的技能,我認(rèn)為宇航員以外的其他職業(yè)也用得到。”
About 120 applicants will be invited to the Johnson Space Center in Houston for a first round of interviews.About half of them will be invited back for a second round.
大約有120名申請(qǐng)者將被邀請(qǐng)到休斯頓的約翰遜航天中心參加第一輪面試。他們之中大約一半的人將參加隨后的第二輪面試。
Once astronaut candidates are selected, they must successfully complete a two-year training period.
一旦被選中成為宇航員候選人,他們必須成功地完成一段為期兩年的訓(xùn)練。
"Well, they will learn a little bit of everything about spaceflight, whether that’s systems training,right now they do Russian language for a language training , they will do EVA, Extravehicular Activity (spacewalks) training.So they do a little bit of everything in that two-year window before moving into their mission specific training,”
“他們會(huì)全面學(xué)習(xí)關(guān)于太空飛行的所有知識(shí),雖然學(xué)習(xí)并不深入。不管是不是系統(tǒng)培訓(xùn)。他們現(xiàn)在在學(xué)習(xí)俄語(yǔ),將來(lái)會(huì)學(xué)習(xí)艙外活動(dòng)(太空行走)。在接受具體飛行培訓(xùn)之前,他們將在兩年之內(nèi)接觸到關(guān)于成為宇航員的一切知識(shí)!
This group of astronauts may fly on three new spacecraft that are currently being developed,including NASA’s Orion, which is aimed at deep space exploration. If all goes well, NASA plans to send humans to Mars in the 2030s.
這批新培養(yǎng)出來(lái)的宇航員可能會(huì)在目前正被修建的三座太空飛行器上工作,其中包括致力于太空深入探索的NASA’s Orion(獵戶座)。如果一切順利的話,NASA計(jì)劃在21世紀(jì)30年代將人類送上火星。
For people who are interested in pursuing a career in space, Roemer says,“The piece of advice we always like to tell young folks that are interested is to pick a career that you are passionate and enthusiastic about,because you tend to do well with things you like,and then being an astronaut would be the icing on the cake to hopefully what would otherwise be a very fulfilling career,”
Roemer對(duì)那些夢(mèng)想成為一名太空工作者的人說(shuō),我們想為那些對(duì)太空感興趣的年輕人提供的建議是:一定要選擇一個(gè)你熱愛并感到狂熱的職業(yè),因?yàn)槿藗兺鶗?huì)把喜歡的事情做好。所以成為宇航員將會(huì)為實(shí)現(xiàn)自我職業(yè)生涯錦上添花。
Since the first group of seven astronauts were selected from the military in 1959, only 338 others have been chosen as NASA astronauts.
1959年,第一批宇航員由從軍隊(duì)甄選出來(lái)的七人組成,自那以后,只有338名新晉NASA宇航員。
