电影

The Bothans are an alien species allied with the Rebellion. They serve as information specialists, using their highly-trained spies to gather data vital to the outcome of the Galactic Civil War. Many Bothan spies died to deliver data regarding the second Death Star to the Alliance, just before the Battle of Endor.
博萨人是与起义军结盟的异族。他们担任情报人员，用训练严格的间谍收集对银河内战结局至关重要的情报。恩多战役前夕，很多博萨情报员为把第二颗死星的相关情报传递给同盟而牺牲。

衍生宇宙



Bothans are a humanoid species characterized by stocky builds and fur-covered faces. The fur acts as an emotional indicator, as different moods trigger different rippling responses on a Bothan's fur.
博萨人是人形种族，身材短粗，面部有毛发覆盖。他们的毛发能表达情绪，因为不同的心情会触发博萨人毛发的不同起伏反应。

Bothans hail from Bothawui, a cosmopolitan planet spared from the Galactic Civil War due to its neutrality. Bothans also have numerous colony worlds scattered throughout their small patch of indigenous space, like the planet Kothlis.
博萨人来自博萨威——这颗都市化行星因为中立而没有卷入银河内战。博萨人也有众多殖民星球，散布在他们的一小片本土空域内，科思利斯行星就是其中之一。

Bothans arrange themselves in family clans, and the apostrophe in their surname separates their immediate family name with their clan name. For instance, Borsk Fey'lya is of the clan Alya. Family is very important to Bothans, and clan loyalty is paramount; Bothans proudly display their clan sigils. Between clans, however, it is a different matter altogether. Bothan politics is known for subtle backstabbing maneuvers. While the Bothans aren't a violent people, their skills at character assassination are unparalleled.
博萨人分为不同的氏族，撇号把他们的姓和氏族名分开。例如，博尔斯克·费利亚即来自阿利亚氏族。家族对博萨人有重要意义，对氏族的忠诚至高无上；博萨人会十分自豪地展示氏族印章。但在氏族之间，情况则完全不同。博萨人的政治以狡猾的暗箭伤人而出名。虽然博萨人不是一个暴力种族，但他们的人格暗杀伎俩无与伦比。

The Bothans are renowned for their information-gathering techniques. For over 300 years these aliens have been cultivating a vast network of operatives dedicated to gathering useful data. The Bothan spynet remained independent during the Galactic Civil War. At least, it did so on the surface. Much of the intelligence gathered was siphoned to the Alliance, but the Empire and criminal organizations also took advantage of Bothan services.
博萨人以他们的情报搜集能力而闻名。300多年来，这些异族人精心建立了一个庞大的情报网，专注于收集有用的信息。博萨人的情报网在银河内战期间保持独立。至少，表面看来如此。大量被收集到的情报被源源不断地交给同盟，但帝国和各犯罪组织也会利用博萨人的服务。

It was the Bothan spynet that captured plans for the second Death Star, just prior to the historic Battle of Endor. Two dozen Bothan pilots and gunners of Blue Squad lost their lives in raiding the Imperial transport Suprosa.
在历史性的恩多战役前夕，正是博萨人的情报网获取了第二颗死星的设计图。蓝色中队的二十四名博萨人飞行员和炮手在围袭帝国运输舰“萨普罗萨号”时丧生。

The Bothan reputation for skullduggery and deception has colored many a being's perception of them. Many openly question their involvement in the Imperial trap at Endor. When it was revealed that the Bothans were tangential accomplices in the destruction of the planet Caamas, there was a great uproar that demanded the furred aliens be brought to justice. This political tinderbox threatened to split the New Republic, but cooler heads prevailed.
坑蒙拐骗的名声使很多人对博萨人印象不佳。许多人公开怀疑他们卷入了帝国在恩多设下的圈套。当人们获悉博萨人与卡马斯行星的毁灭有间接关系时，群情激愤，要求把这些毛茸茸的异族人绳之以法。这个政治火藥桶一度使新共和国面临分裂，但冷静的头脑最终控制了事态。

Now, the New Republic is led by a Bothan Chief of State, Borsk Fey'lya. A long time member of the New Republic's inner council, Fey'lya claims to have the New Republic's best interests at heart. But old Bothan habits die hard, and Fey'lya and his staff spend much energy in protecting the Chief of State's political life rather than tending to the Yuuzhan Vong crisis tearing apart the galaxy.
现在，新共和国由一位博萨族国家元首——博尔斯克·费利亚——领导。作为新共和国内部委员会的长期成员，费利亚声称自己时刻关心新共和国的最大利益。但博萨人的旧习难改，费利亚及其手下把大量精力花在保护国家元首的政治生命上，而忽视了正在撕裂银河系的遇战疯人危机。

幕后



Though the Bothans are spoken of in Return of the Jedi, they are not seen in the film. A popular speculation at the time was that the prune faced aliens present at the Rebel briefing were actually Bothans, but these in fact are Dressellians.
尽管在《绝地归来》中提到了博萨人，但他们并没有出现在电影里。根据当时一种很流行的说法，在义军听简报时那些话梅脸异族人就是博萨人，但事实上，那些是德雷斯尔人。

Bothans were first given a physical description in Timothy Zahn's Heir to the Empire novel, which came out in 1991 from Bantam Books. Since that time, the Bothan look has varied widely from artist to artist. At times, they are almost simian. Other times, quite human-looking. Lately, they've been shown with extended muzzles that give them an almost equine appearance. Such diversity of appearance may be due to racial variations among the scattered Bothan clans.
博萨人的外形描写最早出现在蒂莫西·扎恩的小说《帝国传承》里，该书由班坦图书出版于1991年。从那时起，博萨人的外貌在不同艺术家笔下大相径庭。有时，他们几乎就是类人猿。有时，他们看起来颇似人类。最近，他们又显示出有长长的口鼻部，使他们很像马。这种外表多样性可能源于不同博萨人氏族的人种差异。
