American leaders are discussing how to respond to North Korea's latest's weapons test. It involved a missile that flew over Japan, a U.S. ally, before landing somewhere in the Pacific Ocean on Tuesday. North Korea's government controlled media called it a, quote, meaningful prelude 1 to containing Guam. That's a U.S. territory in the Pacific.
美国领导人正在讨论如何回应朝鲜最近进行的核武器测试。朝鲜进行测试的武器中，有一枚导弹飞越美国的盟友——日本，随后落入太平洋某处。朝鲜政府的官方媒体称其为“遏制关岛的重要序曲”。关岛是美国在太平洋上的领土。
Meanwhile, the U.S. military ran a successful test of its own on Wednesday, when an American destroyer at sea shot down a missile that was test-fired from an American base in Hawaii. Defense 2 Secretary James Mattis says America is never out of diplomatic solutions to international problems.
同时，周三美国军方进行了一次成功的试验——一艘美军驱逐舰在海上击落了一枚从美军夏威夷基地试射的导弹。美国国防部长詹姆斯·马蒂斯表示，美国不会放弃通过外交手段解决国际问题。
But as you're about to see, the U.S. does have a backup plan.
不过正如大家即将看到的那样，美国确实会留后备计划。
This is America's final shield, the last and only protection against an incoming North Korean nuclear missile, housed deep underground in the heart of Alaska's wilderness 3 at Fort Greely, about 150 miles north of Fairbanks. The heavily armed 49th Missile Defense Battalion 4 secures 38 missile silos, dotting a landscape frigid 5 even in late summer. The tip barely revealing what lies beneath.
这是美国最后的盾牌——防御即将到来的朝鲜核导弹的最后的也是唯一的盾牌。它位于费尔班克斯以北约150英里处，阿拉斯加格利里堡的荒野中心的地下深处。全副武装的第49号导弹防御营保护着38座导弹发射井，导致这里即使是在夏末时期都是一片寒冷景象。内幕消息几乎没有透露出地下设施的任何信息。
