双语新闻：俄罗斯宇航员在国际空间站度过了878天12小时，创造太空停留时间记录

Russia's space agency Roscosmos says cosmonaut Oleg Kononenko has broken the world record for total time spent in space.
俄罗斯航天局表示，宇航员奥列格·科诺年科打破了在太空停留总时间的世界纪录。

Kononenko passed the record Sunday after spending more than 878 days and 12 hours in orbit aboard the International Space Station (ISS).
科诺年科在国际空间站(ISS)的轨道上度过了878天12小时后，于周日打破了这一纪录。

The previous record was set in 2015 by another cosmonaut, Gennady Padalka, who spent 878 days and 11 and a half hours in space.
此前的纪录是由另一位宇航员根纳季·帕达尔卡在2015年创造的，他在太空中度过了878天11个半小时。

The 59-year-old Kononenko has so far made five trips to the ISS. The first one came in 2008.
现年59岁的科诺年科到目前为止已经五次前往国际空间站。第一次是在2008年。

Kononenko told Russia's state-supported news agency, TASS, that each trip he took to the ISS required careful preparation. This is because the orbiting space lab is always getting upgrades.
科诺年科对俄罗斯政府支持的通讯社塔斯社说，他每次前往国际空间站都需要精心准备。这是因为轨道空间实验室一直在升级。

Kononenko said his repeated space trips represent the realization of a childhood dream to become a cosmonaut. "I fly into space to do what I love, not to set records," he told TASS.
科诺年科说，他多次的太空旅行代表了他成为一名宇航员的童年梦想的实现。他告诉塔斯社:“我飞到太空是为了做我喜欢做的事，不是为了创造纪录。”

He added that his continued interest in living and working in orbit "motivates" him to keep flying.
他补充说，他对在轨道上生活和工作的持续兴趣“激励”他继续飞行。

Kononenko's current trip to the ISS began on Sept. 15, 2023. He arrived along with American astronaut Loral O'Hara and cosmonaut Nikolai Chub.
科诺年科目前的国际空间站之旅始于2023年9月15日。他与美国宇航员劳拉·奥哈拉和宇航员尼古拉·丘伯一同抵达。

Kononenko's service on the ISS is continuing. He is expected to reach a total of 1,000 days in space on June 5. His current flight is expected to end in late September. By then, he will have spent at least 1,110 days in space.
科诺年科在国际空间站的服务仍在继续。预计到6月5日，他在太空的总停留时间将达到1000天。他目前的飞行预计将于9月底结束。到那时，他将在太空中度过至少1110天。

Kononenko said he worked out often aboard the ISS to help him deal with the physical effects of weightlessness.
科诺年科说，他经常在国际空间站上锻炼，以帮助他应对失重对身体的影响。

He added that he realizes the social effects of his long stays on the ISS when he returns back to Earth.
他补充说，当他回到地球时，他意识到他在国际空间站长期停留的社会影响。

"It is only upon returning home that the realization comes that, for hundreds of days in my absence, the children have been growing up without a papa," Kononenko said. "No one will return this time to me."
科诺年科说:“回家后才意识到，在我离开的数百天里，孩子们在没有爸爸的情况下长大。”“这次没有人会回到我身边。”

Kononenko noted that cosmonauts are now able to use video calls and messaging to stay in better touch with their family.
科诺年科指出，宇航员现在可以使用视频通话和短信与家人保持更好的联系。

He said one of the most difficult things about being a cosmonaut is getting ready for each new space flight. "The profession of a cosmonaut is becoming more complicated," Kononenko said. "The systems and experiments are becoming more complicated."
他说，作为一名宇航员，最困难的事情之一就是为每次新的太空飞行做好准备。科诺年科说:“宇航员的职业正变得越来越复杂。“系统和实验正变得越来越复杂。”

The ISS is one of only a few areas where the United States and Russia still closely cooperate after Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
国际空间站是俄罗斯入侵乌克兰后美国和俄罗斯仍然密切合作的少数几个领域之一。

Roscosmos announced in December that its program with the American space agency NASA to transport astronauts to the ISS had been extended until 2025.
俄罗斯联邦航天局去年12月宣布，其与美国宇航局(NASA)合作的将宇航员运送到国际空间站的计划已延长至2025年。
