2008十大航天新闻揭晓 A Momentous Year in Spaceflight
对太空飞行来说，2008年是非常重要的一年。这一年见证了很多重大的历史性时刻：世界上最强大的伽马射线望远镜、国际空间站上最大的太空舱、印度的第一颗月球探测器和正好是美国首位宇航员后代的太空游客都被成功送入太空。以下是2008年十大航天新闻。
This was a momentous year for spaceflight. It saw the launch of the world's most powerful gamma-ray telescope, the space station's largest room, India's first moon probe, and even a space tourist who happens to be America's first second-generation space traveler.
Here are the Top 10 stories of 2008:

1.美国宇航局成立50周年
美国宇航局50年LOGO
10月1日是美国宇航局成立50周年，这一天标志着半个世纪以来美国在太空探索方面所取得的巨大成就，而在1958年美国宇航局成立之前，很多人还对太空探索持怀疑态度。虽然一些人对现在科学家仍未研制出飞车而有些沮丧，但是大部分人可能已经意识到，自从美国人用羡慕的眼光观看飞行在空中的苏联制造的人造卫星以来，美国宇航局已经在太空探索方面取得了巨大进步。美国在月球竞赛中取胜，成为派宇航员成功登上月球的国家，并成立了一支可重复利用的航天飞机机群，而且还与其他国家合作，建设漂浮在太空中的国际空间站用于科学研究。当然，成功的道路上也曾上演可怕的悲剧：阿波罗1号的不幸、挑战者号和哥伦比亚号航天飞机上遇难的宇航员都证明，如果不付出代价，就不会取得这些成功。然而，即便有这些令人悲伤和感到挫败的事实摆在面前，即使有公众对美国宇航局感到厌倦，但是美国人是不会放弃他们的太空梦想的。因为谁都无法预知未来50年将会发生什么事情。
1. NASA's 50th anniversary
On Oct. 1 the National Aeronautics and Space Administration turned 50 years old, marking a half century of achievements in space exploration that many would have doubted were possible before its founding in 1958. While some people are still smarting over the continued absence of flying cars, most can recognize that NASA has come a long way since the days when Americans watched with envy as Sputnik flew overhead. We won the moon (and may be racing back to it all over again), built a fleet of reusable space shuttles, and worked with other nations to construct a continuously-occupied floating space station for scientific research. There have also been horrific tragedies along the way: the lives of the Apollo 1, Challenger and Columbia astronauts attest to the fact that those great achievements weren't attained without a price. But for all the heartbreaks, setbacks and even public boredom with NASA, Americans can't seem to give up the dream of space. Who knows what the next 50 years will bring?
