美国宇航局发现地球附近最年轻黑洞

　　"If our interpretation is correct, this is the nearest example where the birth of a black hole has been observed," said Daniel Patnaude of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics in Cambridge, who led the study.

　　“如果我们的解释没错的话，这应该是已被观测到的时间最近的一个黑洞诞生的实例，”领导这项研究的美国马萨诸塞州剑桥哈佛-史密森天体物理学中心的丹尼尔-帕特诺德说道。

　　"This may be the first time the common way of making a black hole has been observed," said co-author Abraham Loeb, also of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics.

　　“能观察到黑洞正常的形成过程，这对人类来说可能是第一次，”该研究论文的撰稿人之一、同样来自哈佛-史密森天体物理学中心的亚伯拉罕-罗伯说。

　　There is one other possible explanation for what scientists have seen: They could be watching the birth instead of a pulsar wind nebula. But Alex Filippenko of the University of California at Berkeley said the discovery is most likely a black hole.

　　对于科学家的最新观察结果，还有其他解释：他们所看到的或许只是一个“脉冲星风星云”的诞生。但加利福尼亚大学伯克利分校的亚历克斯称该射线源更有可能是黑洞。
