“没。”
“ No, “ he responded, shirking.
灵儿耐心地解释起来，好像只是为了分散刚才的悲伤：“是这样的，跟你想得不同，地球发动机没那么大劲儿，它只能给地球很小的加速度，不能把地球一下子推出太阳轨道。在地球离开太阳前，还要绕着它转十五个圈呢！在这十五个圈中地球慢慢加速。现在，地球绕太阳转着一个挺圆的圈儿，可它的速度越快呢，这圈就越扁，越快越扁，太阳越来越移到这个扁圈的一边，所以后来，地球有时离太阳会很远，当然冷了… …”
It was Ling who took it upon herself to patiently explain the situation to the child, almost as if she want to dispel her erstwhile melancholy. “ Things are different than you think. It’s like this: the Earth Engines are not that powerful. They can only accelerate a bit and certainly not enough to launch the Earth out of its solar orbit in one fell swoop. In fact, the Earth will circle the Sun 15 orbits before it can escape! During these 15 orbits, the Earth will slowly pick up speed. Right now, the Earth’ orbital path is still pretty much circular, but as the Earth accelerates, its orbit will become increasingly elliptical. The faster it moves, the flatter the ellipse will become, and the more the Sun will be shifted toward one end of the orbit. When the Earth is at its point away from the Sun, it will naturally be very cold. “
“可… …还是不对！地球到最远的地方是很冷，可是在扁圈的另一头，它离太阳… …我想想，按轨道动力学，还是现在这么近啊，怎么会更热呢？”
