But why, some say, the moon? 但有人问，为什么选择登月？

Why choose this as our goal? 为什么选择登月作为我们的目标？

And they may well ask why climb the highest mountain? 那他们也许会问为什么我们要登上最高的山峰？

Why, 35 years ago, flythe Atlantic? 为什么，要在35年前，飞越大西洋？

Why does Rice play Texas? 为什么赖斯大学要与德克萨斯大学竞赛？

We choose to go to the moon. 我们决定登月。

We choose to go to the moon. 我们决定登月。

We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win, and the others, too. 我们决定在这十年间登上月球并实现更多梦想，并非它们轻而易举，而正是因为它们困难重重。因为这个目标将促进我们实现最佳的组织并测试我们顶尖的技术和力量，因为这个挑战我们乐于接受，因为这个挑战我们不愿推迟，因为这个挑战我们志在必得，其他的挑战也是如此。
