西内SINE

我知道我在这家公司是从事太空项目，但我真的对这个不感兴趣，因为，嗯，这只是历史了。但奥拉认为我可能会感兴趣，既然它离凯特峰不远，这里有个消息:
I know I’m space guy in this company, but I not really interested in this because, well, is just history at this point. But Aura thought I might be, so since it’s not far from Kitt Peak, here is the news:

皮马航空航天博物馆(宣传单)。
Pima Air and Space Museum (promotional flier).

"皮马航空航天博物馆的太阳神导弹博物馆位于图森以南仅20分钟车程的格林谷。在冷战的20多年里，54枚太阳神2型导弹……他们置于坚硬的地下发射井中，并装载了推进器和核弹头…...能够在接到命令后一分钟内发射…...由训练有素的战斗人员每天24小时操控......那个弹头……[在格林谷展出的]是美国所以战略导弹上最大的单枚核武器。
"Pima Air & Space Museum’s Titan Missile Museum is located in Green Valley just 20 minutes south of Tucson. For over 20 years during the Cold War fifty-four Titan II missiles ... were kept loaded with propellants and nuclear warheads in their hardened underground silos … able to be launched within one minute from the time an order was received … manned by highly trained combat crews twenty four hours a day…. The warhead . . . [on display in Green Valley] was the largest single nuclear weapon carried on any of the United States strategic missiles.

"除了[格林谷的]571-7号太阳神导弹基地，所有太阳神2型导弹基地都在1982年以后的五年时间里被销毁了。设施的销毁包括发射井的向内爆破，用混凝土填满入口和逃生通道，并焊接住了6号防护门。这些被拆除的53个发射井，没有一个可以轻易地挪为它用。每枚导弹都已经被移除……[格林谷导弹的推进器箱体上已经被开了洞]以确保这枚导弹永远不会成为一种有效武器。[同时，]……在发射管道的半开放区域增加了一个天窗，以保护环境，并允许[被俄罗斯]卫星观测......
"With the exception of [this] Titan Missile Site 571-7 [in Green Valley], all of the Titan II missile sites were destroyed over a five year period beginning in 1982. Facility destruction included implosion of the silos, filling the access portal and escape tunnel with concrete and welding Blast Door Six shut. None of the 53 demolished silos can be easily refurbished for any purpose. Each missile was removed at the time of deactivation . . . [and the missile in Green Valley has had holes cut in its propellant tanks] to ensure that this missile will never become an active weapon. [Also,] … a skylight was added over the half-open area of the launch duct to provide environmental protection and to permit satellite observation [by Russia]...

"......[这个地方]被指定为国家历史地标……地下设施几乎完全恢复......[而且]基本上所有原始设备都完好无损。导弹发射井有8层，每一层中仍然包含着退役时发射井中的原始设备......导弹发射井[最初]被一个740吨的发射井防护盖覆盖，以保护导弹免受附近爆炸、辐射或恶劣天气的影响。这扇巨大的门可以在20秒内退回30英尺以便发射导弹。为了在第一次攻击后能够继续操作，发射井防护盖能在被6英尺的灰尘和碎片层覆盖的情况下还可以继续操作。发射井内的关键发射设备由弹簧悬挂。在发射管道内，导弹被巨大的弹簧组件隔震，这些弹簧组件支撑着一个巨大的推力座，导弹就坐落在这个推力座上......发射控制中心是一个三层的圆柱形混凝土和钢结构，其中一个三层的建筑由8个巨大的弹簧悬空，这些弹簧连接到第二层和发射控制中心的屋顶......
"… [This site is] designated a National Historic Landmark.… The below ground facilities are almost fully restored ….[and] contain essentially all of the original equipment intact. The missile silo has 8 levels, each still containing the original equipment in the silo at the time the site was retired.… The missile silo was [originally] covered by a 740 ton silo closure door to protect the missile from nearby blast, radiation or inclement weather. This massive door could roll back 30 feet in 20 seconds to permit missile launch. To be capable of operation after a first-strike attack, the silo closure door is designed to operate with up to a 6 foot layer of dirt and debris resting on it. Launch-critical equipment within the silo is suspended by springs. Within the launch duct, the missile is shock isolated by huge spring assemblies supporting a giant thrust mount upon which the missile sits.… The Launch Control Center is a three story cylindrical concrete and steel structure within which a three story building is suspended by eight massive springs connected to the second level and the roof of the Launch Control Center dome.…

[我还发现了一件有趣的事:]
[And here’s the one thing I found kind of interesting:]

空军已经使用翻新后的导弹作为卫星运载工具。(此外，宇航员尼尔·阿姆斯特朗的首次太空之旅就是乘坐太阳神2型飞船的。
The Air Force has used the refurbished missiles as satellite launch vehicles. [Also, Astronaut Neil Armstrong’s first trip into space was aboard a Titan II.]
