探月工程看似遠在天邊，其實近在眼前。高大上的太空技術其實可能現在正被你穿在腳上......
聽起來，探月工程可能離人們的日常生活很遙遠，但科學家們可不這麼認為。
Technologies utilized in the lunar probe missioncan also be used for civilian purposes, includingcutting smog, producing a type ofsugar alcoholand researchingself-driving vehicles, Chinese experts said.
那些用在探月工程中的技術其實還可以幫助我們改善生活，比如治理一下霧霾，生產木糖醇以及攻克無人駕駛技術，這可是專家說的。

具體怎麼回事，且聽專家道來：
“Many things we are very familiar with in daily life such as air-shockproof shoes,dried vegetablesandxylitolcome from the lunar probe missions,” Pang Zhihao, a Beijing-based space communications expert, told the Global Times on Thursday.
全國空間探測技術首席傳播專家龐之浩說，其實我們生活中熟悉的許多東西比如氣墊運動鞋，方便麵裡面的乾菜包，還有飯後嚼一嚼的木糖醇都來自探月工程。
Pang added that the technology of the lunar exploration project can also help treat air pollution. “The rocket engine needs to burn through huge quantities of fuel to push Chang’e-3 to space. The burning technologycan be used on engines of cars andcombustion furnacesto eliminate harmful gases,” he said.
而且航天技術還可以幫助治理空氣汙染，頓時感覺霧霾有救了。龐之浩專家說火箭發動機是通過燃燒產生巨大推力將嫦娥三號推向太空，科研人員研究出的燃燒技術可以運用到汽車發動機以及燃燒爐上面，讓燃料充分燃燒來消滅有害氣體。
Fumes from chemical plants contain sulfurandsaltpeter, which are theprimary sources of air pollution. As Pang said, combustion furnaces using the burning technology to mix fuels can control the emission of hazardous substances by recycling sulfur or removing saltpeter.
化工廠排放出的廢氣裡面含有硫磺和硝，這兩個是空氣汙染的主要來源。龐之浩說, 裝備好航天級別燃燒技術的工廠燃燒爐可以通過硫回收和脫硝的工藝技術來有效控制硫磺、硝等有害物質向大氣排放。
Song Zhongping, a military expert and TV commentator, told the Global Times on Thursday that burning technology relies on the high temperature of the rocket enginethat can thoroughly burn harmful gases, which has been utilized in waste treatment plants.
宋忠平專家則介紹，燃燒技術依靠的就是運載火箭發動機的超高溫，如此高溫可以徹底燃燒有害氣體，將它們分解，自然也不會再排放到大氣中。
Song said that the automatic control equipment to avoid barriersthat Chang’e-4 used to land on the moon plays a significant role in thehostile environmentof outer space and helps the lunar lander descend smoothly.
當然，航天技術絕對不止應用於治理霧霾，嫦娥四號的避障設備 也是一個潛力股，自主控制的避障設備在太空的惡劣環境中扮演了重要角色，是幫助嫦娥四號順利著陸的大功臣。
專家還說，這種設備也是可以應用到自動駕駛技術上的，比如說無人駕駛車和無人機。
Avoiding obstaclesis one of the greatest challenges for self-driving vehicles. A UK media reported in July 2016 that Tesla’s autopilot uses both cameras and radar to detect and avoid obstacles but there has been a double failure, which avoids false braking events.
避開障礙可以說是無人駕駛技術的一大挑戰。據一篇2016年的英國媒體報道，特斯拉使用相機和雷達來探測和躲避障礙，但是都以失敗告終。
另外，航天器上的太陽能電池技術也有很大的用途：
Song said the solar cell of spacecraftcan also be used for civilian purposes by allowing civilian solar cells to work underlow light.
據宋忠平描述，借用航天器太陽能電池的技術 可以讓民用電池在低光狀態下繼續工作。
“Space technologies are high-grade, precise and advanced,” Song said, noting however, it is difficult to use them for civilian purposes in the near future because of their high cost.
宋忠平表示，如此高精尖的航天技術只要再降低一點成本就可以更多的走進我們的日常生活啦！
嫦娥四號帶上天的棉花種子都發芽了，看來以後可以利用我們的各種航天技術玩轉太空了！
