日本去年发射了一枚探空火箭到达月球。班在,该国的科学家们正计划最大限度地运用他们的技术,准备在1996年对火星作一次飞行探测。日本宇航科学家们相信,使用M—V火箭能够到达火星。他们可通过使用小小的探空火箭上的始终指向地球的中心轴、通讯天线和日光板来解决能量问题。因为当太阳、地球、火星三点偶成一线时,探空火箭便可得到充分的太阳能而无须靠日光板和太阳成一 Last year Japan launched a sounding rocket to reach the moon. The country’s scientists are planning to make maximum use of their technology in preparation for a 1996 mission to fly Mars. Japanese aerospace scientists believe Mars can be reached using the M-V rocket. They can solve energy problems by using a small, sounding rocket’s central axis that always points to the Earth, the communications antenna, and the sun panel. Because when the sun, the earth, Mars three into the line, the sounding rockets can be full of solar energy without the sun and sun into a
