莎拉·布萊曼有望上太空高歌

Sarah Brightman could be singing from space someday in the near future.
莎拉·布萊曼在不久的將來可能在太空唱歌。

The British classical recording artist recently announced that she had bought a seat to fly on a Russian spaceship, describing it as a chance to live out a childhood desire beyond her wildest dreams.
這位英國古典唱片藝術(shù)家最近宣布說她買到了俄羅斯飛船的一個(gè)座位，并將其描述為是一個(gè)實(shí)踐她童年最為狂野的夢想的機(jī)會(huì)。

Brightman, 52, who once had a hit song called “I Lost My Heart to a Starship Trooper,” plans to rocket some 250 miles above Earth to the International Space Station—becoming the seventh space tourist since American Dennis Tito became the first in 2001.
52歲的布萊曼唱過一首著名的《我的心迷失在星河中》，她計(jì)劃乘坐飛船到達(dá)距離地面約250英里高的國際空間站——成為繼2001年美國的丹尼斯·提托之后第7個(gè)太空游客。

Once there, she said she intended to become the first professional musician to sing from space.
一旦她到了那兒，她說她將成為第一個(gè)在太空唱歌的職業(yè)音樂家。

“This voyage is a product of a dream, my dream. Finally it can be a reality. I am more excited about this than anything I have done in my life to date,” she told a news conference in Moscow.
“這次旅行是一個(gè)有關(guān)我的夢想的結(jié)果，它最終將成為現(xiàn)實(shí)，我對(duì)這次旅行的期待勝過了我迄今為止的生命中所做的任何事?！彼谀箍频男侣劙l(fā)布會(huì)上如此說道。

Brightman, who helped popularize the classical crossover genre, added that the schedule for her flight would “be determined very shortly by (Russian federal space agency) Roscosmos and the ISS partners.”
曾推廣新古典風(fēng)格的布萊曼補(bǔ)充說她的航行時(shí)間表將“很快就會(huì)由（俄羅斯聯(lián)邦航天局）俄羅斯宇航局和空間站合作伙伴們確定下來?！?/div>

Alexey Krasnov, head of the ISS program at Roscosmos, said Brightman had passed the required mental and physical examinations to fly into space.
國際空間站項(xiàng)目在俄羅斯宇航局的負(fù)責(zé)人阿列克謝·克拉斯諾夫說，布萊曼已經(jīng)通過了上太空所需的精神和身體的檢查。

Space Adventures, the Vienna-based company that organizes flights for private spacefarers, did not disclose how much Brightman had paid for her seat on the Soyuz (“聯(lián)盟”號(hào)火箭). But the last space tourist, Cirque du Soleil (太陽馬戲團(tuán)) chief executive Guy Laliberte, paid around $35 million for the flight.
太空冒險(xiǎn)，總部設(shè)在維也納，是一家為私人太空游客組織航班的公司，它并沒有公開布萊曼為“聯(lián)盟”號(hào)火箭的座位花費(fèi)了多少錢。但是最近一個(gè)太空游客，太陽馬戲團(tuán)的董事長拉里伯特，為他的旅行花費(fèi)將近3500萬美元。
