福克斯新闻 太空部队五年预算出炉

$12.9 billion: That's the estimate for the first five years of the planned Space Force, according to some number crunching¹ by the Air Force.

The Air Force five-year cost estimate came out of a memo² from Air Force secretary Heather Wilson, who has proposed the Pentagon ask Congress for the authority and cash, to build a Space Force headquarters as early as 2020.

Now all of these plans would need to get the okay by Congress and the administration right now is planning to propose legislation authorizing³ the establishment of the Space Force in early 2019.

129亿美元：据空军部门透露的数字，计划的太空军队头五年的耗费预计就会达到这一数额。

这一空军五年费用估算来自空军部长希瑟·威尔逊的一份备忘录，就是她提议五角大楼向国会申请批准从2020年就开始投入建设太空军队总部的项目及其资金的，

如今，所有相关项目都还等着国会审批，但政府已经在计划提出议案，对2019年年初就开始组建太空部队的计划予以授权。
