阿德勒天文博物馆的点评

点评：When I was a student at the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign, I took an astronomy class. On dark and cloudless nights, we would go to a vacant field and gaze at the North Star and Big Dipper and Little Dipper and Cassiopeia and Pegasus and other constellations. But a visit to Chicago's Adler Planetarium is something else again, an out-of-this-world experience. Opened to the public on May 12, 1930, The Adler is the first planetarium or public museum for astronomy established in the United States. Located at 1300 South Du Sable Lake Shore Drive, on the northeastern point of Northerly Island, on Lake Michigan, it is part of the city's Museum Campus in Grant Park, which also includes the Field Museum of Natural History and Shedd Aquarium. Open from 9 to 4 Thursday through Tuesday and 4 to 10 on Wednesday, its mission is to inspire exploration and understanding of the universe. The Adler has three theaters. space science exhibitions, including the Gemini 12 space capsule, and a collection of antique scientific instruments and print materials. But its most interesting feature is the Doane Observatory. Opened in 1977, it is the largest aperture telescope available to the public in the Chicago area. With its 20-inch diameter mirror, the Doane can gather over 5,000 times more light than an unaided human eye, allowing visitors to see celestial objects like the Moon, planets, stars and galaxies that are trillions of miles away. The Adler was added to the National Register of Historic Places and designated a National Historic Landmark in 1987.

翻译：我在伊利诺伊大学厄巴纳-香槟分校求学时，修过一门天文学课程。在那些无云且漆黑的夜晚，我们会前往一片空地，仰望北极星、北斗七星、小北斗七星、仙后座、天马座以及其他星座。不过，参观芝加哥的阿德勒天文馆则是另一种体验——一种超凡脱俗、如同置身外太空般的奇妙经历。该天文馆于1930年5月12日向公众开放。阿德勒天文馆是美国第一家天文馆及面向公众的天文学博物馆。它坐落于密歇根湖畔的诺瑟利岛东北端，地址为南杜萨布尔湖岸大道1300号。该馆隶属于位于格兰特公园内的芝加哥博物馆区，区内还有菲尔德自然历史博物馆和谢德水族馆。阿德勒天文馆的开放时间为周四至周二上午9点至下午4点，周三则为下午4点至晚上10点。其宗旨是激发人们对宇宙的探索欲与认知兴趣。阿德勒天文馆拥有三座剧院，还设有太空科学展览区，展出了双子星12号太空舱，以及一系列古老的科学仪器和印刷资料。不过，它最引人入胜的设施还是多恩天文台。该天文台建于1977年，是芝加哥地区向公众开放的直径最大的望远镜。凭借其20英寸直径的镜面，多恩望远镜能收集到比人眼直接观测多出5000多倍的光线，从而让参观者能够清晰地观测到月球等天体。那些距离我们数万亿英里之遥的行星、恒星和星系。1987年，阿德勒天文馆被列入美国国家历史名胜名录，并被认定为国家历史地标。
