The bio-suit will also have a mind of its own. Thanks to recent breakthroughs in smart fabrics, micro-plastic electronics will be woven into the suit itself so that it will be able to sense the wearer's measurements, allowing the suit to mode itself precisely to his or her body.
生物太空服将能够自我思考。多亏了近年来在智能纤维上的重大突破，微塑性电子产品将会应用到太空服里，这样太空服就能感知穿者的尺寸，然后精确地自动调整，使宇航员穿上更加合身。
"Another great use of smart material is for physiological sensing. Smart wires in the suit would tell you your thermal temperature, how much oxygen you have been using."
“另一种对智能材料的伟大应用在于生理状态感应。太空服内的智能导线会告诉你热量温度，以及剩下多少氧气。”
Dr. Newman believes that in the near future these suits will be available to everyone and that everyone will have reason to wear one.
纽曼博士认为在不久的将来，任何人都有机会穿这种服装，每个人都有理由穿它。
"I hope that you can go online, buy your bio-suit, do some exploration. I would love to see human mission tomorrow is in 2014, 2018, but absolutely by 2030."
“我希望你能上网买一套生物太空服去探险。我很乐意看到人类在2014年，2018年就实现这个使命，然而在2030年绝对能实现。”
"I believe that going to Mars is within my lifetime and I think we have the means and the technology to take us there, and to survive there."
“我相信在我有生之年能看到人类登陆火星，我们有方法技术作担保，我们能在火星上存活。”
We're much closer today to be able to send humans to Mars than we were to be able to send man to the moon in 1961, and we were there 8 years later.
比起1961年将人类送上月球的可能性，今天将人类送上火星的可能性更大。1961年后人类又花了八年时间才到达月球。
And maybe that for human exploration of Mars is a long term task. I think of myself like maybe the architects or bricklayers did who first started building the Cathedrals in Paris. Those who first started never saw the final Cathedrals. But they were an important part of the process that led to that magnificent structure that we see today. Modern sense may be Mars' exploration is like that. And those of us working on it now take comfort in the fact that we're the first part of this longterm process.
也许人类的火星探险是一个长期的过程。我自己的观点是，这就像建筑师或者砖瓦工在巴黎第一次开始修建大教堂。这些第一次开始尝试的人绝看不到最终的大教堂。但是他们是造就这辉煌结构过程中的重要组成部分。火星探险也许是一样的道理。现在正在刻苦钻研的我们，可以从我们是第一批探索火星的人这一事实中找到安慰。
As exciting as going to Mars will be, there is one future journey that is even more awe-inspiring, a trip through time.
登录火星将是何等的振奋人心。未来的旅途是一次穿梭时空的旅行，这将会更加令人惊叹。
