Crew Dragon’s Splashdown

美载人“龙”飞船返回地球

The SpaceX Crew Dragon “Endeavour” spacecraft carrying two NASA astronauts parachuted to a splashdown in the Gulf of Mexico off the coast of Florida on Sunday, completing a two-month mission to the International Space Station (ISS).

搭载两名美国航天局（NASA）宇航员的美国太空探索技术公司（SpaceX）奋进号“龙”飞船在完成为期两个月的国际空间站任务后，8月2日返回地球，溅落在佛罗里达州海岸的墨西哥湾。

When the spacecraft splashed down off the coast of Pensacola, Florida at 2:48 pm EDT Sunday, the SpaceX recovery vessel GO Navigator was waiting at the landing zone.

美国东部时间14时48分，飞船溅落在佛罗里达州彭萨科拉海岸，SpaceX回收船GO Navigator在着陆区等待。

The recovery teams then opened the hatch and retrieved NASA astronauts Robert Behnken and Douglas Hurley, according to NASA live broadcast.

NASA的直播画面显示，回收小组打开舱门，NASA宇航员罗伯特·本肯和道格拉斯·赫尔利被抬出舱。

The return of the test flight with the two astronauts from the ISS marks the first splashdown of an American crew spacecraft in 45 years, said NASA.

NASA表示，此次载人试飞任务中，两名宇航员成功从国际空间站返回，这标志着45年来美国载人飞船首次以溅落方式返回地球。

It also wrapped up the test flight for the first commercially owned and operated crewed spacecraft under NASA’s Commercial Crew Program.

这也代表了NASA商业载人项目下首个由私营企业建造和运营的飞船承担的载人试飞任务的圆满成功。
