中国航天不搞“太空竞赛”

12/13/2007 11:31 EST (0148 GMT)

  国防科工委副主任陈求发表示,中国航天的发展始终坚持和平利用太空的原则,不搞太空竞赛。那么,“太空竞赛”怎么说呢?

  请看《中国日报》的报道:

  China is firmly against the militarization of outer space, and will never engage in a space arms race of outer space. "The ongoing lunar exploration program has no military purposes," Chen Qiufa said.

  陈求发表示,中国坚决反对搞外空军备竞赛,决不参与太空竞赛,中国此次绕月探测工程也没有任何军事目的。

  太空竞赛表示在外太空部署武器,搞外太空军备竞赛,表达为“space arms race”或“weapons /arms race in outer space”。

  其他相关词汇有

  外太空军事化militarization of outer space

  和平利用太空peaceful exploitation/use of space

  外太空武器部署deployment of weapons in outer space
