After 13.8 billion years of cosmic history, our universe has woken up and become aware of itself. From a small blue planet, tiny, conscious parts of our universe have begun gazing out into the cosmos with telescopes, discovering something humbling. Weve discovered that our universe is vastly grander than our ancestors imagined and that life seems to be an almost imperceptibly small perturbation on an otherwise dead universe. But weve also discovered something inspiring, which is that the technology were developing has the potential to help life flourish like never before, not just for centuries but for billions of years, and not just on earth but throughout much of this amazing cosmos.?在 138 亿年的历史之后， 我们的宇宙终于觉醒了， 并开始有了自我意识。 从一颗蓝色的小星球， 宇宙中那些有了微小意识的部分， 开始用它们的望远镜， 窥视整个宇宙， 从而有了谦卑的发现。 宇宙比我们祖先所想象的 要大得多， 使得生命显得如同渺小的扰动， 小到足以被忽视， 但若没有它们的存在， 宇宙也没了生命。 不过我们也发现了 一些振奋人心的事， 那就是我们所开发的技术， 有着前所未有的潜能 去促使生命变得更加繁盛， 不仅仅只有几个世纪， 而是持续了数十亿年； 也不仅仅是地球上， 甚至是在整个浩瀚的宇宙中。I think of the earliest life as Life 1.0 because it was really dumb, like bacteria, unable to learn anything during its lifetime. I think of us humans as Life 2.0 because we can learn, which we in nerdy, geek speak, might think of as installing new software into our brains, like languages and job skills. Life 3.0, which can design not only its software but also its hardware of course doesnt exist yet. But perhaps our technology has already made us Life 2.1, with our artificial knees, pacemakers and cochlear implants.我把最早的生命 称之为 “生命 1.0”， 因为它那会儿还略显蠢笨， 就像细菌，在它们的一生中， 也不会学到什么东西。 我把我们人类称为 “生命 2.0”， 因为我们能够学习， 用技术宅男的话来说， 就像是在我们脑袋里 装了一个新的软件， 比如语言及工作技能。 而“生命 3.0” 不仅能开始设计 它的软件，甚至还可以创造其硬件。 当然，它目前还不存在。 但是也许我们的科技 已经让我们走进了 “生命 2.1”， 因为现在我们有了人工膝盖， 心脏起搏器以及耳蜗植入技术。So lets take a closer look at our relationship with technology, OK? As an example, the Apollo 11 moon mission was both successful and inspiring, showing that when we humans use technology wisely, we can accomplish things that our ancestors could only dream of. But theres an even more in
