Eventually, we'll move to a modified Mars time, which is what we're working now.
最終，我們得作息會依照修改過的火星的時間，這就是我們現在在做的。
And that's because it's hard on your bodies, it's hard on your families.
因為這對你的身體和家庭都是個負擔。
In fact, there were sleep researchers who actually were studying us
實際上，有睡眠專家一直在拿我們做實驗觀察對象，
because it was so unusual for humans to try to extend their day.
因為人類很難有機會去試圖延長自己的一天。
And they had about 30 of us that they would do sleep deprivation experiments on.
我們有30人被觀察，他們會在我們身上做一些缺覺的實驗。
So I would come in and take the test and I fell asleep in each one.
我就會參與實驗，在每個實驗中去睡覺。
And that was because, again, this eventually becomes hard on your body. Even though it was a blast.
這種情況最終還是會對身體造成一些負擔。即使只是一時的損害。
It was a huge bonding experience with the other members on the team, but it is difficult to sustain.
這段經歷讓團隊的所有人同舟共濟，但是很難持續。
So these rover missions are our first steps out into the solar system.

We are learning how to live on more than one planet.
我們正在學習如何生活在另外一個星球上。
We are changing our perspective to become multi-planetary.
我們正在改變原有的觀點，逐漸適應多星球生活。
So the next time you see a Star Wars movie, and there are people going from the Dagobah system to Tatooine,
所以下次你去看星球大戰的時候，一些人從荻克巴星到塔圖因，
think about what it really means to have people spread out so far.
想像一下，那真的是條很遠的道路。
What it means in terms of the distances between them,
他們之間到底距離有多遠，
how they will start to feel separate from each other and just the logistics of the time.
他們離開彼此會有什么感覺，還有時間差的問題。
We have not sent people to Mars yet, but we hope to.
我們還沒有把人類送到火星上，但是我想我們總有一天會做到。
And between companies like SpaceX and NASA and all of the international space agencies of the world,
例如美國太空探索技術公司和美國國家航空航天局，或是有國際空間站的國家，
we hope to do that in the next few decades.
我們希望可以在未來的幾十年里實現。
So soon we will have people on Mars, and we truly will be multi-planetary.
所以不久，我們將有人生活在火星，那時我們就是真的多星球人了。
And the young boy or the young girl who will be going to Mars could be in this audience or listening today.
未來將會前往火星的少男少女們，今天可能恰巧就坐在這里聽我的演講。
I have wanted to work at JPL on these missions since I was 14 years old and I am privileged to be a part of it.
我自打14歲起，就想工作在噴氣推進實驗室來研究這個項目，如今我有幸成為了其中的一員。
And this is a remarkable time in the space program, and we are all in this journey together.
現在對于宇宙探索是個重要的時間，我們在一起經歷了這些。
So the next time you think you don't have enough time in your day,
所以下次你覺得自己時間不夠的話，
just remember, it's all a matter of your Earthly perspective. Thank you.
記住，這只是你在地球時的觀點。謝謝！
