是的。这一定令人震惊。你希望西内来讲讲凯特峰上的望远镜，别担心，他马上就到。或者点击下面的链接。但是，朋友，我发现了一些让我震惊的东西。我知道霍皮人是亚利桑那州最后一个允许赌场赌博的部落，但既然我们在凯特峰附近，我们还不如在拉斯维加斯的行政套房呢。可怜的奥拉，有着关于印第安人风俗和迷信的浪漫想法。凯特峰保护区很大。由于联邦政府在修建水库时转移了一些部落，这些部落得到允许，可以在别的地方挑一块土地作为补偿。他们不仅在图森附近有两家赌场，在去尤马半路上的阿霍也有一家，还有一家在凤凰城附近。在被美国和墨西哥瓜分之前，保护区比这个还要大。我想正是这个原因，它们不想建墨西哥边境墙。他们的政府所在地在塞尔斯，非常靠近望远镜。他们必须在赌场，资金，就业方面做得很好。奥拉一直关注他们如何从仙人掌上敲下果实来酿酒。
Yeah. This has got to be a shock. You expect Sine to be the one talking about the scopes at Kitt Peak. Don’t worry. He’ll be here in a minute. Or, click on down to the links. But, man, I am finding out stuff that just blows me away. I know the Hopi were the last tribe in Arizona to okay casino gambling as part of their operation, but where we’re at near Kitt Peak, we might as well be in the executive suite for Las Vegas. Poor Aura. Romantic notions about Indian customs and superstitions. The reservation Kitt Peak is on is huge. And because the feds moved some of the tribe when they built a reservoir, the tribe got a deal where they can compensate by picking up land in other locations. So they not only have two casinos near Tucson and one by Ajo that’s halfway to Yuma, but another one by Phoenix. The res used to be even bigger than that before the US and Mexico split it. I guess that’s why they don’t want the Mexican border wall. Their capital is in Sells, pretty close to the scopes. They’ve got to be doing pretty good with the casinos, money, employment. And little Aura is fixated on how they make wine from knocking the fruits off saguaro cactus.

They make more baskets than any other tribe. Gorgeous.

用来装他们赚的钱，非常方便。天啊，他们太让我们失望了。一群愚蠢的赌徒。我现在甚至不想谈论股票市场。
Very handy for carrying around all the dough they must make. God, they’ve got us down alright. A bunch of dumb gamblers. I don’t even want to talk about the stock market right now.

奥拉AURA

没人请你谈论股票市场，对吧?
Nobody’s asking you to talk about the stock market, alright ?

西内SINE

这些望远镜太棒了。几分钟前我们还在看太阳呢。
These telescopes are out of this world. We were watching the sun until a few minutes ago.

科罗纳多CORONADO

它望到我们吗?我在这里热死了。
Is it gonna get us yet? I’ve been frying out here.

西内SINE

让我们等星星出来吧。
Let’s wait for the stars to come out.

奥拉AURA

在塞尔斯路边有一块小地方，你可以看到真正的印第安食物是什么样子。
There’s a little place down the road in Sells where you can see what real Indian food is like.

西内SINE

他们在这里为夜访者提供晚餐。
They serve dinner here for the night visitors.

奥拉AURA

我们会及时回来的。你看着吧。
We’ll get back in time. You’ll see.

科罗纳多CORONADO

我想我已经去奥拉的家园了。
I think I’ve gone to Auraland.

World’s Largest Telescopes Near Tucson

基特峰国家天文台(国家光学天文台)在亚利桑那州图森西南44英里， 走AZ86号公路，然后AZ386号公路往南开12英里。它是世界上最大的陆基光学望远镜集合;大小分别为36英寸、50英寸、84英寸和158英寸的天文望远镜，同时还拥有世界上最大的太阳望远镜(60英寸)。从峡谷底部看夜空是一回事，而这，又是另一回事。
Kitt Peak National Observatory (National Optical Astronomy Observatories) is 44 miles SW of Tucson, AZ on AZ 86, then 12 miles S on AZ386. It’s the world’s largest collection of ground-based optical telescopes; 36-, 50-, 84- and 158-inch stellar telescopes and also hosts the world’s largest solar telescope (60 in).
