Venus Express now moving closer to Venus / Venus Express, todavía mas cerca de Venus / translated into Interlingua

Venus Express has been in orbit around the planet Venus for two years now and it's finally about to move into a much closer orbit. The new orbit around the planet will be in between 185 and 300 km. To give an idea how close that is, the International Space Station is almost 400 km above the Earth and the view of the Earth from there looks like this:

ESA is quite good at carrying out science, not so good at providing updates. But then again Venus Express isn't really releasing any pictures that would be interesting to the average person not interested in space, since you can't see anything but clouds from above Venus anyway.

The original article is here in Spanish, and I've translated it into English and Interlingua, imagining a period of time in the near future where an international auxiliary language has been approved and is coming into use but English and Spanish are still strong and often seen alongside in press releases.

Desde esta semana, los controladores de la sonda Venus Express han estado ejecutando una serie de maniobras para llevar progresivamente a la sonda más cerca de su planeta anfitrión. Con la nueva órbita, la sonda será capaz de observar regiones inexploradas e investigar fenómenos que antes no estaban a su alcance.	Since this week, the controllers of the craft Venus Express have been implementing a series of maneuvers to bring the probe progressively closer to its host planet. With the new orbit, the craft will be able to observe unexplored regions and investigate phenomena that were not previously available to them.	Depost iste septimana, le controlatores del sonda Venus Express ha executate un serie de manovras pro lo ducer progressivemente plus proxime a su planeta. Con le nove orbita, le sonda essera capace de observar regiones inexplorate e investigar phenomenos que previemente non esseva disponibile.
Las maniobras operacionales para llevar la sonda mas cerca del planeta serán ejecutadas a lo largo de mes de Julio, para alcanzar la nueva órbita en el 4 de Agosto.	The operational maneuvers to bring the craft closer to the planet will be implemented throughout the month of July, to achieve the new orbit on the 4th of August.	Le manovras operational pro ducer le sonda plus proxime al planeta essera facite primarimente in le mense de julio, pro complir le nove orbita in le 4 de augusto.
Hasta ahora, Venus Express ha estado en una órbita polar excéntrica: en su punto mas cercano (pericentro) la sonda estaba entre 250 y 400 km del planeta, mientras que en la mas alejada (apocentro) llegaba a unos 66.000 km. El pericentro estaba localizado a 84º norte.	Until now, Venus Express has been in a polar eccentric orbit: in its closest point (the pericentre) the craft was between 250 and 400 km from the planet, whereas in the most distance (the apocentre) it reaches about 66,000 km. The pericentre is localized at 84º north.	Usque a ora, Venus Express ha essite in un orbita polar eccentric: in su puncto le plus proxime (pericentro) le sonda esseva inter 250 e 400 km del planeta, ma in le plus distante puncto (apocentro) illo attingeva circa 66,000 km. Le pericentro es localizate a 84º nord.
Esta órbita excéntrica se ha sideñado para facilitar la observación del hemisferio sur durante periodos extensos de tiempo y, a más cercanas distancias, del hemisferio norte, particularmente de su región polar.	This eccentric orbit is being done(?) to facilitate the observation of the southern hemisphere over extended periods of time and, at closer distances, of the northern hemisphere, particularly its polar region.	Iste orbita eccentric es facite pro facilitar le observation del hemispherio sud durante extensive periodos de tempore e, al distantias le plus proxime, del hemispherio nord, particularmente de su region polar.
Se bajará la altura del pericentro hasta llegar a los 185 y 300 km. Esta modificación permitirá disponer de un buen punto de observación para poder conseguir las siguientes metas científicas: Estudiar el campo magnético en la región polar norte. Estudiar a mayor profundidad el ambiente del plasma en la ionosfera. Deducir, indirectamente, la densidad de la atmósfera del planeta midiendo la fuerza de frenado aerodinámico ejercida por la misma sobre la sonda cuando se desplace por zonas más cercanas al planeta.	It will lower the height of the pericentre to reach in between 185 and 300 km. This modification will provide a good observation point in order to achieve the following scientific goals: Study the magnetic field in the polar north region. Study in further depth the environment of the plasma in the ionosphere. Find out, indirectly, the density of the atmosphere of the planet by measuring the aerodynamic braking force exerted on the probe when it travels in areas closer to the planet.	Illo bassara le altitude del pericentro usque a attinger inter 185 e 300 km. Iste modification permittera un bon puncto de observation pro poter complir le sequente scopos scientific: Studiar le campo magnetic in le region polar nord. Studiar in plus profunditate le ambiente del plasma in le ionosphera. Deducer, indirectemente, le densitate del atmosphera del planeta per mesurar le fortia de freno aerodynamic empleate al sonda quando illo se move a zonas plus proxime al planeta.
