马特·安德森（Matt Anderson）告诉阿纳多卢（Anadolu），美国“在太空的所有三个领域”都处于领先地位，暗示很快就会出现“令人兴奋的消息”Beril Canakci ANTSYS，Türkiye美国宇航局副局长周一表示，美国和中国之间的登月竞赛比华盛顿希望的更加激烈，这表明该航天局将很快做出一项重大公告。
Matt Anderson tells Anadolu that US leads 'in all 3 sectors of space,' hints at 'exciting news' soon Beril Canakci ANTALYA, Türkiye The civilian race to the Moon between the US and China is tighter than Washington would like, NASA's deputy administrator said Monday, signaling that the space agency will soon make a major announcement.
“我们赢得了60年代和70年代初的第一次太空竞赛，现在是太空竞赛2.0.民用太空竞赛.比我们现在希望的更近，”马特·安德森在图尔基耶地中海安塔利亚省举行的第77届国际宇航大会（IAC 2026）间隙告诉阿纳多卢。
"We won the first space race in the 60s and early 70s, and right now the space race 2.0 ... the civilian space race ... is closer than we would like right now," Matt Anderson told Anadolu on the sidelines of the 77th International Astronautical Congress (IAC 2026) in Türkiye's Mediterranean province of Antalya.
“但我们会充满信心，我们很快就会宣布一些令人兴奋的消息，”他说，但没有详细说明。
"But we're going to be confident, and we have some exciting news to announce very soon," he said, without elaborating.
中国设定了到2030年将宇航员送上月球表面的目标，并表示长征十号重型火箭、梦州载人飞船和蓝月月球着陆器的开发已步入正轨。
China has set a goal of putting astronauts on the lunar surface by 2030 and said the development of its Long March 10 heavy-lift rocket, Mengzhou crew spacecraft, and Lanyue lunar lander is on track.
美国宇航局四月份在阿耳忒弥斯二号任务中搭载了四名宇航员绕月飞行。该机构后来将阿耳忒弥斯三号改造成计划于2027年进行的地球轨道试飞，现在的目标是在2028年通过阿耳忒弥斯四号将宇航员送回月球表面，这是自1972年阿波罗17号以来的首次。
NASA flew four astronauts around the Moon on its Artemis II mission in April. The agency later turned Artemis III into an Earth-orbit test flight planned for 2027 and now aims to return astronauts to the lunar surface with Artemis IV in 2028, for the first time since Apollo 17 in 1972.
安德森是一名退役的美国空军上校，他于5月宣誓就任美国宇航局第16任副局长。
Anderson, a retired US Air Force colonel, was sworn in as NASA's 16th deputy administrator in May.
“和平探索”与国家安全当被问及新竞赛是关于声望还是科学时，安德森表示，美国宇航局的重点是“科学探索和发现”，并补充说，阿耳忒弥斯时代与20世纪60年代的阿波罗计划“非常不同”。
'Peaceful exploration' vs national security Asked whether the new race is about prestige or science, Anderson said NASA's focus is "the scientific exploration and discovery," adding that the Artemis era is "very different" from the Apollo program of the 1960s.
他说：“我们将前往月球表面停留，在月球基地建立永久存在，以更多地了解月球表面，最终我们所说的第三次太空竞赛将推向火星及更远的地方。”
"We're going to the lunar surface to stay, building a permanent presence in moon base to learn more about the surface, and ultimately what we call the third space race is pushing on to Mars and beyond," he said.
对于太空军备竞赛的担忧，安德森说：“我确实认为，美国目前领先于太空的三个领域。”他将美国国家航空航天局（NASA）的使命与军方的使命区分开来。“我们把NASA对太空的和平探索与太空国家安全事务分开，后者由美国太空军和美国太空司令部负责，”他说，并补充说，NASA愿意与其他政府机构合作。
On concerns over an arms race in orbit, Anderson said: "I do think the United States is leading in all three sectors of space right now." He drew a line between NASA's mission and the military's. "We do separate NASA's peaceful exploration of space and then the national security side of space, which is the US Space Force and US Space Command," he said, adding that NASA likes to partner with other government agencies.
上个月，美国空军部长特洛伊·梅因克表示，该国拥有“在轨太空控制武器”，这是美国官员首次公开确认太空中存在武器。俄罗斯和中国则指责华盛顿在太空挑起军备竞赛。
Last month, US Air Force Secretary Troy Meink said the country has "on-orbit space control weapons," the first time a US official publicly confirmed the existence of weapons in space. Russia and China responded by accusing Washington of launching an arms race in space.
1967年《外层空间条约》禁止在轨道上部署核武器和其他大规模杀伤性武器，但未明确禁止常规武器。
The 1967 Outer Space Treaty bans placing nuclear weapons and other weapons of mass destruction in orbit but does not explicitly prohibit conventional arms.
空间站“负责任”的谢幕：安德森说，对于搭乘国际空间站（ISS）在近地轨道连续驻留近26年，NASA“深感自豪”。
Space station's 'responsible' end Anderson said NASA is "very proud of our almost 26 years of continuous presence in low Earth orbit" aboard the International Space Station (ISS).
“等到国际空间站寿命终结之时，我们已经与一家公司签约，将以非常负责任的方式推动国际空间站离轨，返回地球，”他说。
"When the time comes for the ISS's days to end, we have already contracted a company to have a very responsible manner of de-orbiting the ISS down to Earth," he said.
国际空间站自2000年11月以来一直有人驻留。2024年，NASA根据一份价值最高8.43亿美元的合同，选定太空探索技术公司（SpaceX）建造美国专用离轨飞行器。该飞行器将在空间站停止运行后，将其引导至偏远海域上空受控再入。目前，空间站停止运行的时间计划定为2030年。
The ISS has been continuously crewed since November 2000. In 2024, NASA picked SpaceX to build a dedicated US Deorbit Vehicle under a contract worth up to $843 million, designed to guide the station to a controlled reentry over a remote ocean area once operations end, currently planned for 2030.
轨道数据中心、人工智能自主运行：关于将数据中心部署到太空的方案，安德森说，目前“进入太空的门槛仍然非常高”，原因在于发射成本。
Data centers in orbit, AI autonomy On plans to place data centers in space, Anderson said the "barrier to entry to get to space right now is still very high," citing launch costs.
“但如果私营行业或政府迎来了这样的机会，而且能从中获利并帮助地球上的事务，我会对此表示欢迎，”他说。
"But if the opportunity presents itself for either private industry or governments, and there's a way to make money and help things on Earth, I would welcome that," he said.
今年1月，SpaceX请求美国联邦通信委员会批准部署多达100万颗卫星，作为人工智能的太阳能数据中心。
In January, SpaceX asked the US Federal Communications Commission for permission to deploy up to 1 million satellites that would operate as solar-powered data centers for artificial intelligence.
当被问及授予人工智能在太空中的自主权是否令人担忧时，安德森说：“不，我认为我们不应该担心这个。“（美国）总统（唐纳德）特朗普最近刚刚召集全球超级情报领域最好的专家讨论这件事。我相信，在美国的领导下，如果有合适的人，它会取得很好的效果，”他说。
Asked whether granting AI autonomy in space is a cause for concern, Anderson said: "No, I don't think we should be worried about it." "(US) President (Donald) Trump just recently convened the best experts in super intelligence across the globe to talk about this very thing. I'm just confident that in the right hands, with the United States leadership, it'll be working out really well," he said.
9月9日，特朗普在白宫接待了领先的科技高管29日，公司签署了一项名为《白宫超级智能协议》的自愿、不具约束力的协议，他的政府推动使用“超级智能”一词来代替“人工智能”。扩大国际合作伙伴关系和图尔基耶的作用安德森表示，他“对图尔基耶在太空界的未来感到非常兴奋”，并指出该国刚刚加入了《阿耳忒弥斯协议》。
Trump hosted leading tech executives at the White House on Sept. 29, where companies signed a voluntary, non-binding pact called the White House Accord on Super Intelligence, as his administration pushes to use the term "super intelligence" in place of "artificial intelligence." Expanding international partnerships and Türkiye's role Anderson said he is "really excited for the future of Türkiye in the space community," noting that the country has just joined the Artemis Accords.
“有了这一点，图尔基耶现在可以帮助我们和《协议》的所有其他成员一起建设我们的月球基地。这可以帮助图尔基耶的工程师、科学家，甚至宇航员，”他补充道。
"With that, Türkiye can now help us, with all the other members of the Accords, go up and build our Moon base. That can help the engineers of Türkiye, the scientists, and maybe even astronauts," he added.
图尔基耶于9月9日签署了这些协议。1在华盛顿NASA总部举行，成为第71个签署者，工业和技术部长穆罕默德·穆罕赫·卡奇尔格代表该国。
Türkiye signed the accords on Sept. 1 at NASA headquarters in Washington, becoming the 71st signatory, with Industry and Technology Minister Mehmet Fatih Kacirg on behalf of the country.
这些不具约束力的协议由美国和七个创始国于2020年启动，为月球、火星及其他地方的安全、透明、和平的民用探索制定了共同原则。
Launched in 2020 by the US and seven founding countries, the non-binding accords set out common principles for safe, transparent, and peaceful civil exploration of the Moon, Mars, and beyond.
“太空是国家优先事项，显然，在（土耳其）总统雷杰普·塔伊普·埃尔多安领导下的阿耳忒弥斯协议下，太空是图尔基耶的国家优先事项。因此，我们期待着这种合作伙伴关系，看看它的发展方向，”他说。
"Space is a national priority, and clearly, withg the Artemis Accords, under (Turkish) President (Recep Tayyip) Erdogan's leadership, it is a national priority for Türkiye. So, we look forward to that partnership and see where it goes from here," he said.
据Kacir称，Türkiye计划在2027年初发射其首艘国产月球航天器。土耳其宇航员阿尔珀·格泽拉夫奇（Alper Gezeravci）于2024年1月飞往国际空间站，成为该国第一个进入太空的人。
Türkiye plans to launch its first domestically built lunar spacecraft in early 2027, according to Kacir. Turkish astronaut Alper Gezeravci flew to the ISS in January 2024 as the country's first person in space.
安德森在描述他在安塔利亚的议程时表示，这次大会的目的是与阿耳忒弥斯协议其他国家“建立信任、团队合作，并最终进行一些培训”。
Describing his agenda in Antalya, Anderson said the congress is about "building trust, teamwork, and ultimately some training" with fellow Artemis Accords countries.
他说：“对于美国，特别是美国宇航局来说，这是与其他航天机构、其他政府合作的好方法，看看我们可以在哪里实现所有目标。”
"This is a great way for the United States, and for NASA in particular, to work with the other space agencies, work with the other governments, to see where we can build all our objectives," he said.
IAC 2026将于10月5日至9日举行，由国际宇航联合会组织，土耳其航天局主办，伊斯坦布尔SAHA共同主办。这是图尔基耶首次主办大会。
IAC 2026, running on Oct. 5-9, is organized by the International Astronautical Federation and hosted by the Turkish Space Agency, with SAHA Istanbul as co-host. It is the first time Türkiye is hosting the congress.
