环球网记者李宗泽11月15日报道，美宇航局11月10日在其官网发布消息称，将于当地时间11月15日12点30分（北京时间16日凌晨1点30分）在其华盛顿总部电视演播室举行新闻发布会，就该局“钱德拉”X射线天文台在太空发现的异常物体进行实时转播解说。 美宇航局在其官网表示，媒体代表将有幸参加此次新闻发布会，并通过电话连线的方式进行现场提问。不过要想参加，代表们需提前将所属单位及个人信息发往美宇航局以备审核。此外，科研人员也将出席新闻发布会并就相关问题予以作答。 针对这则即将宣布的消息，有媒体大肆宣称美国宇航局的发现“足以震惊全人类”。不过从美宇航局官网的原话来看，只是在原文提及在宇宙空间内发现“exceptional object”，中文翻译过来为“异常物体”，并没谈及这一发现的“震撼性”和“影响力”。 据了解，美国宇航局下属的“钱德拉”X射线天文台（Chandra X-ray Observatory，缩写为CXO）是美国宇航局于1999年发射的一颗X射线天文卫星，是大型轨道天文台计划的第三颗卫星，目的是观测天体的X射线辐射。其特点是兼具极高的空间分辨率和谱分辨率，被认为是X射线天文学上具有里程碑意义的空间望远镜，标志着X射线天文学从测光时代进入了光谱时代。 附英文全文： NASA Announces Televised Chandra News Conference WASHINGTON -- NASA will hold a news conference at 12:30 p.m. EST on Monday, Nov. 15, to discuss the Chandra X-ray Observatory's discovery of an exceptional object in our cosmic neighborhood.
