1·A measurement and control system based on PCI bus is developed in accordance with the demands of Light and Pint-sized Earth Simulator.
针对地球模拟器“轻量化、小型化”的要求，开发出基于PCI总线的测量和控制系统。
2·But such transits have paved the way for what might prove to be one of the most vital breakthroughs in the cosmos—detecting Earth-sized planets orbiting other stars.
但是这样的凌日现象已经为被证明可能是宇宙中最重要的突破之一的说法铺平了道路，这个说法即找到那些围绕其他恒星轨道公转的和地球大小相似的行星。
3·And while the planet is likely too chilly to make a good home, it gives us hope that smaller, Earth-sized planets may be abundant.
因此，天文学家认为MOA-192 b 不会像地球这样气候宜人，而是像海王星一样，是一个冰冷的气态行星。 虽然要在这颗行星上安家太冷了，但是它给予我们希望，或许地球这样尺寸的较小行星还是挺多的。
4·A decent wobble, though, requires a massive planet, so the wobble method does not favour the discovery of smaller, Earth-sized objects.
尽管最近一次的摇晃需要巨大的行星，因此摇晃法并不利于发现较小的、地球般大小的天体。
5·The new planetary system, the first in which both planets can be seen crossing in front of their star, may also contain an Earth-sized companion.
这个新发现的行星系统，第一两颗行星会在恒星前交叉经过，第二该系统都可能包含有地球大小的行星。
6·Kepler is the first telescope to be designed to find Earth-sized planets that orbit in the "habitable zone" where temperatures are neither too hot nor too cold for water to remain in its liquid state.
开普勒号则是第一个设计用来寻找地球大小的行星的望远镜，这些行星的轨道处于“可居住区域”内，温度既高也不太低，水份可以以液态形式存在，适宜生物生存。
7·The prevailing hypothesis is that the moon was formed from a giant impact event, when a Mars-sized object slammed into Earth.
主流的理论假设认为，月球是大爆炸时期一火星大小的物体猛烈撞击地球而形成的。
8·Meanwhile, Agol believes that Earth-sized planets might end up close to a White Dwarf, where they could have habitable temperatures for billions of years.
同时，阿戈尔认为，大小相当于地球的行星最终可能距离白矮星较近，因此可能会在几十亿年里一直拥有适合居住的温度。
9·The moon is thought to have formed when a Mars-sized body slammed into the infant Earth.
月亮被认为是由一个火星大小的星球一头撞进婴儿时期的地球所产生的。
10·In total, the results suggest that planets ranging from Earth-sized to about four times Earth's size - so-called "super-Earths" - may be more common than previously thought.
这一结果表明，大小从与地球相仿到四倍于地球(又称为“超级地球”)的所有行星，总数可能比以前想象中要多得多。
