　　【参考译文】

　　你们有些人可能是熟悉的“阿波罗计划的地质研究”，月亮在20世纪60年代。但你可能不知道广泛的研究之前的研究。两个早期研究者的工作是很重要的在月球表面的性质决定。早在1892年，地质学家名叫卡洛斯·吉尔伯特被挑战的普遍看法月球表面。当时，大多数科学家认为，月球上的陨石坑是由火山活动造成的。吉尔伯特做了一些谨慎的伸缩研究。没有飞船返回，所以望远镜是较好的方式观察月球。它认为，月球陨石坑是统一的，他们有结果的影响，如陨石坠落斑痕。我张贴的放大的只是一些主板上的图纸。如果你比较他们那些文本，你可以看到，是非常准确的。

       尽管如此，他同时代的人们没有承认他的工作。50年后，一个研究生命名沃尔夫·鲍德温重申吉尔伯特的物种。他也遇到阻力，他左学者运行家人的机械企业。但他并没有放弃他研究。他曾独自一人在他的空余时间，并较终写出了有影响力的书，被称为“月亮的脸”。一位读它的年轻的地质学家，受到这样的启发，他说服美国宇航局阿波罗纳入地质任务。嗯，阿波罗登月计划较终证实鲍德温的较初的想法，这是惊人的，考虑到他是不是一个专业的科学家。
