渥太华正式要求各公司提出更换 CF-18喷气式飞机的建议
The federal government formally submitted requests for proposals (RFP) today to procure fighter jets to replace the decades-old CF-18s.
联邦政府今天正式提交了征求建议书(RFP) ，以采购战斗机来取代几十年前的 cf-18战斗机。
Four companies are in the running to supply Canada with roughly 80 new jets: Saab of Sweden, Airbus Defence and Space out of Britain, and the American firms Boeing and Lockheed Martin.
有4家公司正在为加拿大提供大约80架新飞机: 瑞典的萨博，英国的空中客车防务与航天公司，以及美国的波音公司和洛克希德马丁公司。

美联社报道: 一名阿拉斯加男子被指控违反联邦法律非法杀害一只北极熊。

The Milky Way devoured another galaxy and we've spotted the remains
银河系吞噬了另一个星系，我们发现了它的残骸
Early in the Milky Way’s history, it devoured another, smaller galaxy and made that galaxy’s stars its own. Now, astronomers have pinpointed the timing of this monstrous meal and identified which stars make up the grisly remains.
在银河系历史的早期，它吞噬了另一个较小的星系，并使那个星系的恒星成为它自己的恒星。 现在，天文学家已经确定了这顿可怕的大餐的时间，并确定了是哪些恒星构成了这些可怕的遗骸。
Carme Gallart at the Institute of Astrophysics of the Canary Islands in Spain and her colleagues used data from the Gaia space observatory to determine the ages of nearly 600,000 stars in our galaxy. Some of those stars are in the “thick disk”, just above or below the main disk of the galaxy, and some are in the halo, a spherical structure that extends beyond the disk.
西班牙加那利群岛天体物理研究所的卡梅 · 加拉特和她的同事们使用来自盖亚空间天文台的数据确定了银河系中近60万颗恒星的年龄。 其中一些恒星位于“厚圆盘”中，就在星系主盘的上方或下方，另一些则位于光晕中，这是一种延伸到盘外的球状结构。
The halo sample contained two types of stars, one with more blue stars than the other. Previous work showed that the blue stars were originally part of a smaller galaxy called Gaia-Enceladus, also known as the “sausage galaxy”, which was absorbed by the Milky Way early in its history.
光晕样本包含两种类型的恒星，一种比另一种拥有更多的蓝色恒星。 先前的研究表明，这些蓝色恒星最初是一个较小的星系盖亚-恩克拉多斯的一部分，也被称为“香肠星系” ，在银河系形成的早期就被银河系吸收了。
