印度空间研究组织称“月船3号”完成了绕月飞行，正飞向月球，预计8月5日进入月球轨道

Isro slingshots Chandrayaan-3 towards Moon; Lunar orbit insertion expected August 5

Isro将“月船3号”弹射向月球，预计8月5日进入月球轨道

Isro early on Tuesday completed the critical trans-lunar injection (TLI), a slingshot that has now put Chandrayaan-3 on a five-day journey to Moon. Now, the 2145-kg propulsion module, on top of which sits the landing module comprising Vikram (the lander) and Pragyan (the rover), will travel in a straight path to reach the lunar orbit.

周二早些时候，印度空间研究组织（ISRO）完成了关键的地月转移轨道(TLI)，好比一把弹弓，把“月船3号”送上了为期五天的奔月之旅。现在，2145公斤重的推进模块将沿着一条直线到达月球轨道，其顶部是由“维克拉姆”(着陆器)和“Pragyan”(月球车)组成的着陆模块。

“Chandrayaan-3 completes its orbits around Earth and heads towards Moon.Successful perigee-firing has injected the spacecraft into the trans-lunar orbit. Next stop: Moon. As it arrives at Moon, Lunar-Orbit Insertion is planned for August 5, 2023,” Isro said.

Isro表示：““月船3号”完成了绕地飞行，朝着月球飞去。成功的近地点发射使飞船进入了跨月轨道。下一站：月球。月球轨道导入计划在2023年8月5日进行。”

Once it reaches the initial lunar orbit, expected on August 5, Isro will need to perform a series of manoeuvres to bring Chandrayaan-3 down to the desired 100km circular orbit. Initial estimates suggest that the space agency will perform at least four Moon-bound manoeuvres to achieve the circular orbit, although Isro is yet to officially comment on the matter.

一旦到达初始月球轨道(预计在8月5日)，ISRO将需要进行一系列机动，将“月船3号”降至所需的100公里圆形轨道。初步估计表明，ISRO将进行至少四次绕月机动，以进入环月圆形轨道，尽管ISRO织尚未正式对此事发表评论。

Between the launch on July 14 and Tuesday, Isro had completed five Earth-bound manoeuvres (EBMs), begng July 15. Four of them were to increase the altitude at the farthest point from Earth (apogee) and one, carried out on July 16, to increase the altitude at the nearest point (perigee).

从7月14日发射到周二，ISRO从7月15日开始完成了5次绕地机动。其中四次是在离地球最远的地方(远地点)增加高度，另一次是在7月16日进行的，在离地球最近的地方(近地点)增加高度。

ISRO scientists and engineers inspire all Indians to work hard toward a high goal. All Indian Government and Non-government organizations should function like ISRO, so that India can become fully developed in 10 years.

ISRO的科学家和工程师激励所有印度人朝着更高的目标努力工作。印度政府和所有非政府组织都应该像ISRO一样运作，这样印度才能在10年内全面发展起来。

ISRO we 140 million people wishes you very best to achieve this mission we are proud of you

But unfortunately there is no comments from Pappu and any other opposition leaders which is very unfortunate and ungrateful

Good luck you will achieve the mission

ISRO，我们14亿人衷心祝愿你顺利完成这项任务，我们为你感到骄傲

不幸的是，拉胡尔和其他反对派领导人没有发表评论，这是非常不幸的，他们忘恩负义。祝你好运，你会完成任务的！

If ISRO remains successful in its mission to the moon, it will be an occasion for national celebration. It is regrettable that previous efforts failed. Russia, the United States and China have already made this achievement. While space travel is a highly dangerous project or mission — even the US has faced it numerous times and lost a number of its astronauts too — India and other develo economies are doing their best to join this fray.

如果ISRO的登月任务取得成功，那将是一个举国庆祝的时刻。令人遗憾的是，以前的努力失败了。俄罗斯、美国和中国已经取得了这一成就。尽管太空旅行是一项非常危险的任务，就连美国也面临过很多次失败，也失去了一些宇航员。印度和其他发展中经济体正在尽最大努力加入这场竞赛。

All because of Nehru. He is the one responsible for all the growth in science and technology since 2014.

都是多亏了尼赫鲁，自2014年以来所有科技增长都是他的功劳。

The real thriller will start after the Chandrayaan reaches 100km circular lunar orbit. Eyes of Millions from around the world shall be fixed on the developments after that. It will be a very proud moment when the lander soft lands on moon surface and the Rover starts roving on the moon surface uncovering some useful secrets of the surface there. Wishing 100% success of the mission this time.

真正的惊险将在月船到达100公里的环月圆形轨道后开始。世界各地数百万人的眼睛将注视着此后的进展。着陆器在月球表面软着陆，月球车开始在月球表面漫游，揭开月球表面一些有用的秘密，这将是一个非常值得骄傲的时刻。希望这次任务100%成功。
