飛翔的夢(mèng)想與現(xiàn)實(shí) 
從中國(guó)古代的嫦娥奔月，到希臘神話中以蠟翼粘身的伊卡羅斯。人類一直夢(mèng)想能想鳥(niǎo)兒一樣在天空中飛翔。今年在這方面一成一敗的試驗(yàn)，訴說(shuō)著人類隊(duì)飛翔孜孜不倦的追求。

Oh, to be free like a bird. It’s been the stuff of fantacy, and of reality. Sort of .A self-contained flying man. This jet pack from 1960s had barely enough fuel to fly 30 seconds. So the dream languished for decades. Everyone agreed it was completely impractical , except Micheal Moshier.
Micheal Moshier.: The pilot controls the flaps with the right-hand control stick.
Moshier, a former Navy-pilot-turned-entrepreneur, has spent the last five years of his life working secret on a tiny twin blade strap helicopter called The Solotrek. 
He said he had made his first cautious flight only two feet up at first.But to Moshier, two feet up was like being in the heaven.
Micheal Moshier.: It was exhilarating beyond description. I will tell you I didin’t sleep that night or for several nights thereafter. It was a monumental moment.
With a little more work, he says, the machine will zip around the treetops at 80mph, stabilized by computer. He can picture the army using it to get over rugged terrain, police on search and rescue missions,and if an occasional daredevil wants to beats traffic, well, Moshier believes a pilot who can walk and chew gum with minimal training should be able to get on the aircraft and suitably. There’s just this one nagging question, the machine will fly, but will the idea? True , Moshier has help from the Defense Department and from NASA, but won’t the machine be noisy or dangerous or hard to park?
Jeffrey Schroeder (NASA scientist): I think we can do it but it would be expensive. The challenge is to make it so that it has more of a mess appeal.
Perhaps we are only destined to dream of only flying without wings and never do it. On the other hand, Micheal Moshier was two feet up.
啊，像小鳥(niǎo)一樣的自由自在，這一直就是人 類的夢(mèng)想，同時(shí)我們也要面對(duì)現(xiàn)實(shí)。至少有一點(diǎn)兒吧。這是一個(gè)可以自我操縱的飛人，這個(gè)飛行器產(chǎn)生于二十世紀(jì)六十世紀(jì)年代，它的全部油料加起來(lái)最多只能飛行30秒鐘，就這樣，幾十年來(lái)這個(gè)夢(mèng)想就被擱置起來(lái)。所有人都認(rèn)為要飛是不可能的。只有邁可爾·莫舍除外。
邁可爾·莫舍：飛行員用右邊的駕駛桿操縱飛行器的翼。
莫舍以前是一名海軍的飛行員，如今他成了一名企業(yè)家。他用了5年時(shí)間，一直在秘密研究一種小型的雙葉直升機(jī)。并給它命名為The Solotrek。
他說(shuō)他終于謹(jǐn)慎的進(jìn)行了第一次試飛。在這次試飛中，他的飛行器只飛離地面兩英尺。但對(duì)莫舍來(lái)說(shuō)，飛離地面兩英尺就像進(jìn)了天堂一樣。
邁可爾·莫舍：我的興奮真是難以形容。我告訴你吧，試飛成功的那個(gè)晚上和后來(lái)的幾個(gè)晚上我都幸福得睡不著。這真是一次具有歷史意義的經(jīng)歷。
只要再稍加努力，這個(gè)飛行器就可以靠電腦控制其穩(wěn)定性，以每小時(shí)80英里的時(shí)速在樹(shù)頂上盤(pán)旋。他預(yù)測(cè)軍隊(duì)可以利用這種飛行器在地勢(shì)崎嶇的地區(qū)飛行。警察可以利用他們執(zhí)行搜索營(yíng)救任務(wù)。如果有誰(shuí)想避開(kāi)交通堵塞的話，只要稍加訓(xùn)練，任何人都可以一邊輕松的嚼著口香糖，一邊操縱他的飛機(jī)安全飛行�？墒沁�有一個(gè)讓人困擾的事情。這個(gè)飛行器會(huì)飛起來(lái)，可是這個(gè)概念會(huì)不會(huì)讓人接受呢？莫舍確實(shí)得到的美國(guó)國(guó)防部和美國(guó)宇航局的幫助。但是這個(gè)飛行器會(huì)不會(huì)噪音很大，太危險(xiǎn)，或者很難�？俊�
杰夫里·施羅德：（美國(guó)國(guó)家宇航局科學(xué)家）我想這個(gè)飛行器是可行的，但是加個(gè)不菲�，F(xiàn)在面臨的問(wèn)題是如何使普通大眾對(duì)這個(gè)飛行器感興趣。(編輯 李杰)
也許我們命中注定只能在夢(mèng)中做無(wú)翼飛行，而在現(xiàn)實(shí)中永遠(yuǎn)葉做不到。不過(guò)在此同時(shí)，邁可爾·莫舍已經(jīng)離地兩英尺了。 |
