People think they reach the height of their life at age 40. I’m hoping this is just the beginning of another hill that I will be climbing.
—Anousheh Ansari
人们普遍觉得他们在四十岁时达到人生的顶峰。我倒是希望这只是我即将努力攀登的另一座山峰的开端。
——阿努什·安萨里
Anousheh Ansari, an Iranian—American business woman, began her historic journey as the world’s first female space tourist on September 18.
It was reported that Ansari paid $20 million to become the fourth private space explorer to take a trip on the Russian spacecraft and visit the International Space Station. A U.S.—Russian crew went with Ansari.
Things to do on the mission
On her 10-day mission, she will spend two days orbiting Earth and eight days at the International Space Station. She will perform a series of experiments, including a demonstration of digital home technology—a new project of Ansari’sown company.
Like a space professional
Ansari has trained for 6 months, and when training she did a serious and intense job. “I was quite surprised by her professionalism. She has easily become part of the crew. One could think we’d been working for years together,” Russian astronaut Mikhail Tyurin said at a conference.
To promote space exploration
Ansari hates to be called a tourist because she thinks spaceflight is much more than that. She views herself as an ambassador for attracting private investment to space flight, a way to make great progress in space exploration.
In 2002 Ansari gave $10 million for the naming rights to a prize awarded to the first successful, privately financed, manned trip into space.
Iranian flag on the spacesuit
Ansari had planned to wear an Iranian flag on her spacesuit, which caused heated discussion. “I wasn’t trying to make a political statement, just a personal statement,” she explained. Ansari, who lived in Iran until she was a teenager, wanted Iranian people to be proud of her. She said, “People will see someone born in Iran flying into space.”
阿努什·安萨里,一位美籍伊朗裔女商人,作为世界首位太空女游客,于9月18日开始了她历史性的旅程。
据报道, 作为世界上第四位私人(自费)太空探索者,安萨里女士为此支付了多达两千万美金的费用,她乘坐俄国太空船进行太空之旅,并造访了国际空间站。同时一支由美国和俄罗斯宇航员组成的船员将与安萨里同行。
航行任务
在此次为期十天的航天旅行任务中,她将花两天时间环绕地球飞行,然后在国际空间站逗留八天。在此期间,她将要做一系列试验,包括她自己公司的新项目,一个家用数字化技术的示范。
如同一个专业太空员
安萨里参加了长达六个月的训练,在此期间她完成了紧张而又严格的任务。俄罗斯宇航员米哈伊尔·秋林在一次会议中提到:“我对她的专业性感到吃惊,她很容易地成为了船员之一。别人可能认为我们在一起共事了许多年。”
推动太空探索
安萨里不喜欢自己被称为一名游客,因为她认为太空飞行远不止如此。她将自己看作是一名吸引私人投资太空飞行的大使,这将是促进太空探索一个途径。
2002年,安萨里斥资一千万美金命名并设立了一项基金,以奖励第一个成功进行自费太空旅行的人。
太空服上的伊朗国旗
安萨里本来计划穿着印有伊朗国旗的太空服,此举引发了热烈的讨论。她解释说,“我并不打算作一个政治声明,只不过是个人声明”。安萨里在伊朗生活至十几岁,她希望伊朗人民能以她为骄傲。她说, “人们将看到一个出生在伊朗的人飞向太空。”
