A 16-year-old girl, a high school student from New York, Anna-Sophia Boguraev,
一個16歲的女孩，一個來自紐約的高中生，Anna-Sophia Boguraev，
wondered whether changes to the DNA of astronauts could be related to this immune suppression,
想知道宇航員的DNA變化是否可能與免疫抑制相關，
and through a science competition called "Genes In Space,"
通過一個被稱為“太空基因”的科學比賽，
Anna-Sophia designed an experiment to test this hypothesis using a personal DNA machine aboard the International Space Station.
為了測試這個假說，Anna-Sophia設計了一個實驗，在國際空間站上使用了個人DNA檢測器。
Here we see Anna-Sophia on April 8, 2016, in Cape Canaveral, watching her experiment launch to the International Space Station.
這里，我們看到的是Anna-Sophia2016年4月8日在卡納維拉爾角，看著她的實驗裝置發(fā)射到國際空間站。
That cloud of smoke is the rocket that brought Anna-Sophia's experiment to the International Space Station,
那團煙是火箭帶著Anna-Sophia的實驗設備去國際空間站，
where, three days later, astronaut Tim Peake carried out her experiment -- in microgravity.
三天后，宇航員蒂姆·皮克進行了她的實驗--在微重力環(huán)境中。
Personal DNA machines are now aboard the International Space Station,
個人DNA檢測器現(xiàn)在在國際空間站上服役，
where they can help monitor living conditions and protect the lives of astronauts.
在那里它們可以幫助監(jiān)測宇航員的身體機能，并保護宇航員的生命。
A 16-year-old designing a DNA experiment to protect the lives of astronauts may seem like a rarity, the mark of a child genius.
一個16歲的孩子設計了DNA檢測實驗，為了保護宇航員的生命，看起來非常罕見，天才兒童的標志。
Well, to me, it signals something bigger: that DNA technology is finally within the reach of every one of you.
而對我來說，它標志著更重要的事：DNA技術終于距離你們每一個人都不遠了。
A few years ago, a college student armed with a personal computer could code an app,
幾年前，一個大學生配備上一臺個人電腦就能寫出一個應用程序，
an app that is now a social network with more than one billion users.
現(xiàn)在這是一個社交網(wǎng)絡的應用程序，有超過十億的用戶。
Could we be moving into a world of one personal DNA machine in every home?
我們可以進入一個每個家庭都配備一臺個人DNA檢測器的世界嗎?
