Vladimir Putin has called Elon Musk “a real genius” and said Russia is in close contact with him over satellites in orbit. Putin spoke on Wednesday at the Russia-Africa summit in Moscow, during a presentation on Rassvet, Russia’s answer to Starlink.
此前几周,乌克兰境内的“星链”服务持续中断。本月初,乌克兰军方在该服务上失去速度优势,称这损害了其拦截俄罗斯无人机的能力。
The remarks follow weeks of disruption to Starlink over Ukraine. Kyiv’s military lost speed on the service earlier this month, which it said hurt its ability to stop Russian drones.
据BBC记者卡利·海耶斯和劳拉·戈齐的翻译,普京说:“他是个天才,真正的天才。我们正与美国合作伙伴保持密切联系,包括马斯克先生。”
“He’s a genius, a real genius. We are in close contact with our American partners, including Mr Musk,” Putin said, according to a BBC translation by Kali Hays and Laura Gozzi.
普京表示,这种联系旨在防止“曙光”和“星链”卫星在轨道上相互干扰。
Putin said the contact was about keeping Rassvet and Starlink satellites from getting in each other’s way in orbit.
他说:“我们和美国合作伙伴都重视这一点,尽管存在所有政治问题,我们仍在努力工作。”
“We and our American partners value this mutually, and despite all the political questions, we are working hard,” he said.
数字发展部长马克苏特·沙达耶夫向普京汇报,俄罗斯已发射30多颗“曙光”卫星,据《每日电讯报》报道。他称马斯克的卫星舰队超过5000颗。普京称俄罗斯的努力是“第一步”。
31 satellites against thousands Digital development minister Maksut Shadayev told Putin that Russia had launched more than 30 Rassvet satellites, The Telegraph reported. He put Musk’s fleet at more than 5,000. Putin called Russia’s effort a “first step”.
卫星追踪数据显示差距更大。据追踪机构Orbital Radar数据,由俄罗斯私营公司Bureau 1440制造的“曙光”自3月以来发射了32颗卫星,目前在轨31颗,CNBC记者埃尔莎·奥伦报道。“星链”在轨卫星超过1.1万颗,CNBC报道。
Satellite trackers put the gap wider. Rassvet, built by the Russian private company Bureau 1440, has 31 satellites in orbit out of 32 launched since March, according to tracker Orbital Radar, Elsa Ohlen reported for CNBC. Starlink has more than 11,000 satellites in orbit, CNBC reported.
俄罗斯建设“曙光”已有多年,且屡次推迟截止日期。本月,泽连斯基请求特朗普以制裁手段阻止该项目,据《金融时报》报道。
Russia has been building Rassvet for years and has kept moving its deadlines. This month, Zelensky asked Trump to block the project with sanctions, the FT reported.
乌克兰减速事件 乌克兰依赖“星链”及其军用版本“星盾”,后者由SpaceX向政府出售。本月初,乌克兰官员称,无人机及其他快速移动终端在时速超过约160公里时失去连接。泽连斯基指责这一速度限制干扰了防空作业。
The Ukraine slowdown Ukraine relies on Starlink and Starshield, the military version SpaceX sells to governments. Earlier this month, drones and other fast-moving terminals lost connection above about 160 km/h, Ukrainian officials said. Zelensky blamed the cap for disrupting air defence.
是谁下的命令仍存在争议。据美国消费者新闻与商业频道报道,马斯克曾表示“星盾”由美国政府控制,而特朗普否认曾下令实施这一限制。马斯克还指责乌克兰将“星链”用于进攻性无人机打击,违反了“星链”的服务条款,乌克兰对此予以否认。乌克兰方面表示,网速已于上周末恢复正常。
Who ordered it is still disputed. Musk has said the US government controls Starshield, and Trump has denied ordering the restriction, CNBC reported. Musk also accused Ukraine of breaking Starlink’s terms by using it for offensive drone strikes, which Ukraine denies. Ukraine said speeds were back to normal last weekend.
在华盛顿,特拉华州民主党参议员克里斯·库恩斯在……作出回应。“又一件要加进我传唤马斯克时的问题清单的事,”库恩斯写道。
In Washington, Democratic senator Chris Coons of Delaware reacted on“One more thing to add to the list of questions for Musk when I subpoena him,” Coons wrote.
