Hawking was also a cosmologist, a mathematician and an author.

霍金也是一位宇、数和作。

While a present-day cosmologist might describe the stabilising influence of our Earth's tilt.

而当今的宇可能会描述月球对地球倾斜的稳定起了很大作用。

Figuring out what dark energy is, is probably the number one goal of cosmologists today.

搞清楚暗能是什么可能是宇现在排在首位的目标。

And that lets cosmologists look back to the very dawn of the universe.

让宇回顾了宇的黎明时期。

Cosmologists have come up with a name, dark energy.

宇给它起了名字，暗能。

Cosmologists are making sense of startling discoveries.

宇正在研究那些惊的发现。

The second way to measure curvature is to measure the thing that causes space to curve in the first place: the density of energy and matter throughout the Universe. Which cosmologists have also measured.

宇中物质和能的密度。宇也对此进行了。

Most cosmologists agree that the universe began with a gigantic explosion known as the Big Bang, but some believe that this event will inevitably lead to the end of the universe itself, known as the Big Rip.

多数宇确信宇起源于一场称作宇大爆炸的巨大的爆炸，但是某些宇也相信，宇大爆炸会不可避免地通往宇的终结，这被称为大撕裂。

It doesn't have the beauty of a spiral galaxy or a nebula but to a scientist, to a cosmologist, it is the most beautiful picture ever taken, because it contains a vast amount of information about the very earliest history of our universe.

上面没有漂亮的螺旋星系，或是星云什么的，但对于研究宇的科来说，这张照片意义非凡，因为它详尽地记载着宇最早期的样貌。

The big issue, even for cosmologists today, is whether or not that primordial state contained some of the information needed for the appearance and development of the cosmos.

即使对今天的宇来说，这也是个大问题：原始形态是否包含对宇的外观和发展所需的一些信息。

To be clear, this concept is important to cosmologists, but it can be weird and confusing to someone who is just learning about all this.

需要说明的是，这个概念对宇来说很重要，但对于刚开始习这些的来说，它可能很奇怪，很令感到困惑。

Supernovae provided the explanation, and it was an English cosmologist almost as singular in manner as Fritz Zwicky who figured it out.

超新星提供了解释。这个解释是一位几乎像弗里茨? 兹威基一样行为古怪的英国宇作出的。

Boltzmann didn't get quite that far in his thinking; the brains themselves were introduced by later cosmologists building on his work.

玻尔兹曼在他的想法中并没有到达这一步，大脑本身的理论由后续宇基于他的成果得出。

But even without being able to see the universe in those first instants, cosmologists are pretty sure about a few things.

但是即使不能在最初的瞬间看到宇，宇也相当确定一些事情。

In this context, Boltzmann's paradox has found renewed interest by contemporary cosmologists.

在这种情况下，玻尔兹曼悖论重新引起了当代宇的兴趣。

And by comparison, the entire universe is very simple and even the cosmologists will admit that.

相比之下，整个宇非常简单，甚至宇也会承认这一点。

Cosmologists have done the equivalent of measuring our Universe's triangles by looking at a picture of the early Universe, and studying the spatial relationship between different points on that picture.

宇进行了类似的实验，通过观察早期宇的图像，研究图中不同点之间的空间关系来我们宇的三角形。

The third option is that gravity is just right critical density is the cosmologists' term for it and that it will hold the universe together at just the right dimensions to allow things to go on indefinitely.

第三种可能是，引力恰如其分就是宇所谓的临界密度它把宇控制在一个恰当的范围，使事物永远继续下去。

Cosmologists have found a way to picture the universe in its entirety — confirmation of the tremendous power of making maps.

宇已经找到了一种方法从整体上来描绘宇——这是对强大的绘制力的证明。

So as cosmologists what we do is we apply Einstein's theory of relativity to the universe as a whole.

作为宇，我们要做的就是把爱因斯坦的相对论应用到整个宇中。
