APOD090705 创世纪任务样品舱硬着陆
7.5APOD所说的是一个我不太知道的任务，所以就采用台湾的翻译了。http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap090705.html

Genesis Mission's Hard Impact

Explanation:
A flying saucer from outer space crash-landed in the Utah desert in 2004 after being tracked by radar and chased by helicopters. No space aliens were involved, however. The saucer, pictured above, was the Genesis sample return capsule, part of a human-made robot Genesis spaceship launched in 2001 by NASA itself to study the Sun. The unexpectedly hard landing at over 300 kilometers per hour occurred because the parachutes did not open as planned. The Genesis mission had been orbiting the Sun collecting solar wind particles that are usually deflected away by Earth's magnetic field. Despite the crash landing, many return samples remained in good enough condition to analyze and research is ongoing. So far, discoveries include new details about the composition of the Sun and the effects of the solar wind on unprotected material. 由于所谓的APOD大图比1楼的那个图更小，所以就不贴“大”图了。

創世紀任務樣品艙返回地球
影像提供: Genesis Mission, NASA
說明: 2004年，一個來自外太空的飛碟，在被雷達鎖定追蹤和被直昇機追逐後，墜落在美國猶它州的沙漠裡。不過，事實上並沒有外星人侵入地球，上面影像中的飛碟是創世紀任務的樣品艙；它是2001年美國航太總署發射用來探索太陽的創世紀號無人探測船之組件。創世紀號的主要任務目標是繞行太陽，收集通常會被地球磁場彈開的太陽風粒子。因為降落傘並沒有如期伸展，導致撞擊的速度超過每小時300公里，造成了這次撞擊程度高於預期的降落。雖然經歷過高速撞擊，不過許多回送的樣品狀況仍然可供分析之用，而相關的研究仍在持續之中。到目前為止，較重要的發現包括定出更詳細的太陽 組成和太陽風對無遮蔽物質的影響。
让它速速去开始执行任务吧！ ::070821_13.jpg::幸好是这么偏僻的地方
