- I think what we'll do is we'll see a successful, very successful, private space flight industry.
- 我认为我们要做的会让我们看到成功的，非常成功的私人太空飞船行业。
- Whether we're first or not really doesn't matter. The Russians actually flew a supersonic transport before the Concorde.
- 无论我们是否是第一个真的并不重要。苏联人实际上在飞协和式飞机前就飞过超音速飞机。
- And then they flew a few cargo flights, and took it out of service.
- 他们飞过一些货物航班，然后退役。
- I think you kind of see the same kind of parallel when the commercial stuff is offered.
- 我想，当提供商业产品时你们见到过类似的情况。
- OK, we'll talk just a little bit about commercial development for human space flight.
- 好，我们就谈论一点儿人类太空飞行的商业发展。
- This little thing says here: five times what NASA's doing by 2020.
- 这张小投影片说飞五次，这是美国国家宇航局到2020年做的。
- I want to tell you, already there's about 1.5 billion to 1.7 billion investment in private space flight that is not government at all -- already, worldwide.
- 我想要告诉你，已经有大约十点五亿至十点七亿投资用于私人太空飞行，这些投资完全不是来自政府；而是来自全世界。
- If you read -- if you Google it, you'll find about half of that money,
- 如果你读到它--如果你搜索一下它，你会发现一半的资金，
- but there's twice of that being committed out there -- not spent yet, but being committed and planned for the next few years.
- 但有两倍正准备投入那里的资金--还没有花，但正准备投入计划到未来几年。
- Hey, that's pretty big. I'm predicting, though, as profitable as this industry is going to be --
- 嘿，那数目非常大。我正在预测，尽管，这个工业的收益会很客观。
- and it certainly is profitable when you fly people at 200,000 dollars on something that you can actually operate at a tenth of that cost, or less -- this is going to be very profitable.
- 并且它确实是收益的，当你花200000美元让你的朋友乘飞船旅行时，事实上你可以只花费十分之一，或更少--这收入会非常客观。
- I predict, also, that the investment that will flow into this will be somewhere around half of what the U.S. taxpayer spends for NASA's manned spacecraft work.
- 我还预测，会注入此项事业的投资将会有相当于美国税收的一半之多，这些投资会用于美国国家宇航局的人造宇宙飞船工作。
- And every dollar that flows into that will be spent more efficiently by a factor of 10 to 15.
- 注入此项事业的每一美元都会被更有效地利用，大约相差10到15。
- And what that means is before we know it, the progress in human space flight, with no taxpayer dollars,
- 这意味着在我们之前就知道，人类太空飞行的进程，没有用纳税人的钱，
- will be at a level of about five times as much as the current NASA budgets for human space flight.
- 将会比现在美国国家宇航局的预算多五倍，该预算用于人类太空飞行。
- And that is because it's us. It's private industry. You should never depend on the government to do this sort of stuff -- and we've done it for a long time.
- 那是因为是我们。它是私人的行业。你从不应该依赖政府去做这种事业--而且我们已经从事了很长时间。
- The NACA, before NASA, never developed an airliner and never ran an airline.
- 美国航空资讯委员会，在美国国家宇航局之前，从未开发过客机，而且从未运营过航空线。
- But NASA is developing the space liner, always has, and runs the only space line, OK.
- 但美国国家宇航局正在开发太空货机，总是拥有并且运营这唯一的太空航线，好吧。
- And we've shied away from it because we're afraid of it. But starting back in June of 2004, when I showed that a little group out there actually can do it,
- 我们避开它，因为我们害怕它。但是从2004年六月开始，当我展示在外太空的一个小组实际上能做到时，
- can get a start with it, everything changed after that time. OK, thank you very much.
- 我们能够从它开始，从现在起改变每一件事情。好吧，非常感谢大家。
