The comedian Andy Huggins is not alone in playing with getting old.

喜剧迪·休金斯并不是唯一一个以变老为题材进行表的人。

In the 19th century, using improved telescopes, British astronomer Lord Ross discovered that some nebulae had arms arranged in a spiral, while his compatriot William Huggins found that many nebulae consisted of a mass of stars.

19世纪， 借助改良后的望远镜，英国天文学家罗斯勋爵发现某些星云呈现出螺旋状排列的臂状结构，而他的同胞威廉·赫歇尔则发现许多星云实际上是由大量恒星组成的集合体。

Luckily had good grades and on a whim, Brian Huggins, my roommate in vet school, kind of lifelong, one of my best friends, took a tour of the vet school.

幸运的是成绩不错，而且一时兴起，我室友布赖恩·休金斯——我们是兽医学的同学，可以说是终生好友之一——带我们参观了兽医学院。

In 1875, aged 51, Huggins married 27-year-old Irish astronomy enthusiast Margaret Lindsay, who encouraged him to adopt photography to record his spectra and was an active partner in his later research, co-authoring many papers.

1875年， 51岁的胡金斯娶了27岁的爱尔兰天文学爱好者玛格丽特·林德赛为妻，她鼓励他采用摄影技术来记录他的光谱， 并且在后来的成为了他的积极参与者，共同撰写了多篇论文。

The reason for this, not discovered until the 1920s after Huggins' death, was that such nebulae are indeed composed of stars, and are galaxies in their own right.

这一现象的原因， 直到哈金斯去世后的20世纪20年代才被发现，那就是这些星云实际上是由恒星组成的，它们本身就是独立的星系。

This new branch of astronomy was enthusiastically taken up by the British astronomer William Huggins and his wife Margaret, who also pioneered photography as a way of recording observations.

这一新的天文学分支被英国天文学家威廉·胡金和他的妻子玛格丽特热情地采纳了，他们还开创了用摄影来记录观测的方法。

1864 William and Margaret Huggins find that the spectra of nebulae contain different emission lines, showing that they are largely clouds of gas.

1864年， 威廉和玛格丽特·哈金斯发现星云的光谱含有不同的发射线，表明它们主要是由气体云构成。

Huggins observed that nebulae, such as the Andromeda Nebula, had a spectrum of light similar to that of the Sun and other stars, a broad band of colour with dark absorption lines.

胡金斯观察到， 像仙女座星云这样的星云，其光谱与太阳和其他恒星的光谱相似，呈现出一条宽广的彩色带， 并伴有暗吸收线。

Huggins, encouraged by his astronomer wife Margaret, turned his attention deeper into space, towards nebulae, the funny patches of light that had long mystified astronomers.

在身为天文学家的妻子玛格丽特的鼓励下，哈金斯将目光投向了更深邃的宇宙，转向了那些长期以来令天文学家困惑不解的、形似有趣光斑的星云。
