China Plans Launch of Artificial Moon
中國計劃發射人造月亮
Plans are reportedly underway for the launch of an artificial moon in Chengdu, one of China’s largest cities. The goal of the illumination satellite is to replace streetlights and save on electricity. Officials say the satellite will be eight times as bright as the moon but suggest that the “dusk-like glow” will not be bright enough to disrupt nocturnal animals. The city hopes to launch the satellite in 2020.
據報道，中國最大的城市之一成都正打算發射一顆人造月亮。這顆照明衛星的目的是替代街燈，節省電力。官員表示這顆衛星的亮度是月亮的八倍，但其“黃昏樣的光芒”又不至于擾亂夜行動物的作息。成都希望在2020年發射該衛星。
