據(jù)西昌衛(wèi)星發(fā)射中心消息，我國首個(gè)自主研制的探月衛(wèi)星“嫦娥一號”定于24日下午18時(shí)05分發(fā)射。目前“嫦娥一號”已完成最后檢查測試，進(jìn)入燃料加注發(fā)射階段。從24日凌晨6時(shí)開始，將一直向火箭加注燃料，補(bǔ)充添加到點(diǎn)火前4分鐘。那么我們熟悉的“發(fā)射”這個(gè)詞怎么說呢？

請看《中國日報(bào)》的報(bào)道：

The nation's first moon orbiter is scheduled to blast off at around 6 pm tomorrow from the Xichang Satellite Launch Center in Southwest China's Sichuan Province.

"It will be launched between October 24 and 26 and our first choice is around 6 pm on October 24," Li Guoping, spokesman for the China National Space Administration said.

The sky in Xichang turned blue and the sun shone brightly on Monday after more than 10 days of rain. But if the launch cannot be carried out for any reason before Friday, the lunar orbiter will have to wait till next April for a suitable launch window to blast off, according to chief commander of the carrier-rocket system.

國家航天局發(fā)言人李國平宣布：中國首個(gè)月球探測器———嫦娥一號衛(wèi)星，計(jì)劃于10月24-26日在西昌衛(wèi)星發(fā)射中心擇機(jī)發(fā)射，首選發(fā)射窗口為24日18時(shí)左右。

在連續(xù)10天的陰雨天氣過后，降雨在周一基本停止，西昌當(dāng)?shù)靥炜臻_始放晴。但負(fù)責(zé)運(yùn)載火箭發(fā)射的總指揮指出，假使周五前條件仍不允許發(fā)射，則只好等到明年4月再擇機(jī)發(fā)射了。

“發(fā)射”有多種說法，可以說“blast off 點(diǎn)火起飛”；“take off 起飛”；“l(fā)ift off (火箭, 導(dǎo)彈等)發(fā)射” ；“to launch 發(fā)射（導(dǎo)彈，火箭）”等。
