太空學校：飛向國際空間站的前兩個月，在一架俄國飛行器中體驗失重狀態

　　雖然國際空間站有網絡連接，美國國家航空和航天管理局和俄國工作人員非常擔心這樣會招致嚴重的黑客攻擊。
　　Because despite the fact the ISS does have an Internet connection, NASA and their Russian counterparts are apparently extremely concerned that may spawn a serious space hacking attempt.

　　而他們顯然沒有十足把握來處理這樣的事故。
　　One they don't feel able to cope with, apparently.

　　加利奧特告訴游戲網站Kotaku的記者：“他們擔心黑客潛入空間站，實施破壞。因此干脆不允許（玩游戲等）。”
　　Garriott told gaming site Kotaku "they were so worried about people tunneling backwards to the ISS and wreaking havoc that it became a non-starter."

　　事實確實如此。真的需要提防這些玩MMORPG的青少年們。他們甚至比那些宇宙飛船四周能讓你在黑暗中送命的外星生物還要危險。
　　Yes, beware the MMORPG playing teen, for they are more dangerous than alien life forms creeping about your space ship and killing you in the dark.

　　然而，這些似乎還算不上最壞。他們還不允許加利奧特聽iPod來消遣無聊時光。原因是擔心鋰電池會引發火災。
　　As if that wasn't bad enough, Garriot also wasn't allowed to wile away the gameless hours in orbit listening to his iPod either, as apparently the lithium battery was considered a fire hazard.

　　“他們讓你取出電池，還說了一堆的廢話。真是討厭死了！”他說。
　　"They make you take the battery out and all kinds of crap. It's a pain in the ass," he is quoted as saying.

　　“由于擔心引起火災，你不得不將鋰電池取出；更慘的是拆開主機卸掉電池并重新改裝--但是不管怎么說，你花了這么多錢只是為了能夠攜帶iPod（上太空），這太不值得了。”
　　"You had to have the lithium battery pulled out, because, hypothetically, it's a fire hazard - it's not really; it's actually much worse after you crack the whole thing open, rip the battery out and put wires into it - but anyway, it costs you so much money to even take the iPod, it just wasn't worth it."

　　沒有音樂可以聽，也不能玩游戲來打發時間。說實話，這趟太空游聽起來真的很不值。但話說回來，現如今富翁們還能做什么來揮霍他們的金錢呢？
　　With no music to float about to, and no gaming to pass the time, it sounds rather like the whole trip wasn't really worth it to be honest. But what else do rich folks have to waste their money on these days?
