“Of course, I can't show you a picture of the galaxy on our screen. We can't fly above the galaxy and take a picture of it, and show you. We're stuck in the disc of the galaxy, but we can still image it from the ground, in fact, this image is a picture of our galaxy, the Milky Way, taken from Earth.”
“当然,我不能在我们的屏幕上向你展示一幅巨大的星系。我们不能飞往整个银河系并拍下它展现给你。我们被困在银河之中,但是我们仍然可以从地面拍摄照片,事实上,这张照片是我们的星系,银河系,这是从地球上拍摄的照片。”
This is one of the most detailed images of our galaxy ever created. It's made from 800 million pixels contained in over 1,000 individual photographs taken from the darkest places on earth.
这是一张非常详细的我们的星系曾经创造的照片。它是用8亿像素包含超过1000张来自地球最黑暗的地方的独立照片。
The photos have been painstakingly stitched together to create this breathtaking vista. But as impressive as it is, it's only part of the picture.
这些照片被精心制作在一起来展现这惊人的景象。但令人印象深刻的是,这只是照片的一部分而已。
“It's something like a pizza and if you were in the pizza, if you were pepperoni, your view would not be a very clear one of what the whole story was. In the same way, we don't see the whole reach of the Milky Way.”
“这有点像一张比萨饼,若你身处于比萨饼中,如果你是辣味香肠、你就不能窥探到全貌。如出一辙的是,我们并没有看到整个银河系。
What astronomers really need is a bird's eye view.
天文学家们真正需要的是鸟瞰风景的慧眼。
