日本往太空站送去威士忌用于科研
CAPE CANAVERAL: Spirits arrived at the international space station on Monday. Not the ghostly ones, but the kind you drink; distilled spirits.
The six astronauts won't be sneaking a sip. It's all for science.
周一，烈性酒运抵了国际空间站。并非是精神上（Spirits）的，而是你们喝的那种蒸馏酒（distilled spirits）。
6名与宇航员是喝不上一小口的，这些是用来科研的。

A Japanese company known for its whiskey and other alcoholic beverages included five types of distilled spirits in a space station cargo ship. The station's big robotic arm operated by Japanese astronaut Kimiya Yui grabbed onto the supply craft launched Wednesday by his homeland. Flight controllers helped anchor it down.
日本公司产的威士忌酒以及其他酒精饮料是出了名的，包括送上太空站的5种蒸馏酒。太空站上日本宇航员油井龟美操纵的硕大机器手臂抓住于周三从他的祖国发射的货运飞船。飞行控制器帮助其锚定下来。
The supply ship contains nearly 10,000 pounds of cargo, including the six liquor samples. Suntory Global Innovation Center in Tokyo wants to see if alcoholic beverages mellow the same in space as they do on Earth.
载货飞船中装有一万磅的供应品，货物中包括六份蒸馏威士忌样品。东京三得利全球创新中心希望观察太空环境对酒精熟化过程的影响是否跟在地球一样。
The samples will be used for experiments and will spend at least a year in orbit before being returned to Earth. An identical set of samples will be stored on the ground in Japan.
样品会被用于实验。至少会在轨道上呆上一年，然后送回地球。实验的对照组样品会被保存在东京。

If you send whisky for human consumption, then the spaceship or station will start spng in space and go out of orbit!
如果威士忌是送上去给宇航员喝的，那么太空站会开始转动，然后脱离轨道！

Next they can deliver nuclear bombs to space Station not to attack any country but for Science as claimed in this matter.
下次他们会把核弹送上太空站。
不是用来进攻其他国家，而是跟这次一样说是用于科研。

When the Whisky bottles ( half filled with liquid Whisky ) are stored in cup board of the space ship ,the inmates will see liquid Whisky on top half of the bottle and nothing at the bottom half .A ghostly phenomenon ? No scientific one - a sense of Gravitational force in the space station ,
威士忌放在太空飞船的碗厨里，宇航员会看到液体威士忌会飘到酒瓶上半部分，而底下什么也没有。
可怕的现象？
太空站里失重而已
