5. Mars Rover’s Selfie

火星探測車自拍

NASA’s Mars Curiosity rover took an out-of-this-world image on June 24 to mark a full Martian year, which is 687 days on Earth. It had a productive year, between collecting rock samples and discovering a former lakebed that NASA says had “essential elemental ingredients for life.” But no word on how close it is to finding living organisms capable of taking selfies.

美國宇航局（NASA）的“好奇號”火星探測車在6月24日給自己拍了張自拍照，以紀念在火星上待了整整一年，也就是等同于地球上的687天。“好奇號”在火星上收獲頗豐。它收集到了巖石樣本，發(fā)現了原始湖床，該湖床被美國宇航局稱為含有“組成生命的基本元素”。但是美國宇航局并未提及距離發(fā)現能自拍的生物體還有多遠。
