As records go for the United States as a whole, wildfires did not set a record.

就整個美國的記錄而言，野火併沒有創造記錄。

The National Interagency Fire Center says there have been two years since 1983 when America lost more than 10 million acres, toe wildfires and 2020 isn't one of them.

國家機構間消防中心表示，自1983年以來，美國已經有兩年失去了超過1000萬英畝的土地，趾高氣揚的野火，2020年不是其中之一。

It's also possible that farm or land burned every year in the early 20th century.

Were scorched in 2020 about two million more than average.

We're losing more trees faster than nature can regenerate or humans could regenerate, So we've gotta have better tools to be able to reforest faster.

我們正在失去更多的樹木比自然界的再生速度快 或者人類可以再生，所以我們必須有更好的工具 能夠更快地重新造林。

A Seattle based company called Drone Seed thinks that tool could be, as its name suggests, automated see dropping drones.

一家總部位於西雅圖的名為Drone Seed的公司認為，該工具可以像它的名字一樣，自動見滴無人機。

格蘭特金絲雀無人機種子CEO表示，在五人一組的情況下，無人機一天可以覆蓋50畝地，相比之下，買一個人大約。

And he says the speed and automation can save landowners 30 to 50% of the reforestation costs.

而且他說，速度和自動化可以為土地所有者節省30-50%的造林成本。

Can you explain to us what goes in to the operations of one of these missions where we come in with heavy lift drone swarms, zip up and down those mountainsides, deploy sea vessels in very targeted, precise locations and make reforestation scalable.

你能不能給我們解釋一下，在這些任務中，我們帶著重型無人機群，在山坡上飛來飛去，在目標明確的地點部署海船，並使重新造林的規模擴大。

Aerial seeding is not a new idea, but historically raw seeds air dropped with imprecision and can land in port terrain.

空中播種並不是一個新的想法，但歷史上生種子空投不精準，會在港口地形落地。

So Drone Seed uses advanced laser mapping to identify the best locations for their C drops, targeting healthy soil and other ideal conditions.

所以，無人機種子利用先進的脈衝光測繪技術，針對健康的土壤和其他理想的條件，確定其C滴的最佳位置。

They don't have high competitive vegetation, and so the seeds themselves are going to grow better.

它們的競爭植被不高，所以種子本身也會生長的更好。

8 ft long drones take off on pre programmed routes carrying loads of nearly £60 but they don't drop raw seeds.

8英尺長的無人機在預先編好的路線上起飛，載著近60英鎊的貨物，但它們不會投放生鮮種子。

Instead, Drone Seat has developed seed vessels that include a proprietary blend of everything a seed needs to survive, like fertilizers, nutrients and natural pest deterrents.

相反，無人機座椅已經開發了種子容器，其中包括一個專有的混合種子生存所需的一切，如肥料，養分和天然的害蟲清除劑。

And unlike seedlings, they don't need to be buried in the ground.

而且和苗木不同，它們不需要埋在地裡。

The vessel is a dry fiber, so it absorbs moisture of soaking up in expanding, so that helps it avoid drying out, which is one of the biggest causes of seed mortality.

容器是一種乾性纖維，所以它在膨脹中吸收浸泡的水分，所以有助於它避免乾燥，這是造成種子死亡的最大原因之一。

What we've done is instead of taking three years to go, a seedling in a nursery.

我們所做的是，一個苗圃裡的苗木，而不是用三年的時間去。

We're doing it in 30 to 60 days by utilizing seeds in the seed vessel.

我們通過利用種子容器中的種子，在30到60天內完成。

That's really what we see is the big difference between it.

這其實就是我們看到的它的最大區別。

Drone seed claims it can grow upwards of 140 trees per acre, based on trials in New Zealand.

無人機種子宣稱，根據在紐西蘭的試驗，每畝地可以種植140多棵樹。

In Washington state, they're promising results.

在華盛頓州，他們的結果很有希望。

This year alone in California, over four million acres were consumed by wildfires, and you can manage 50 acres in a day.

今年僅在加州，就有超過400萬英畝的土地被野火吞噬，而你可以在一天內管理50英畝的土地。

What's it gonna take for you guys to really be able to make a dent in this problem?

你們要怎麼做才能真正解決這個問題？

We can have two trucks, two trailers, six aircraft operated by a team of four do thousands of acres in a year.

That Theo Arecibo Observatory telescope in Puerto Rico was one of the most powerful telescopes in the world, I say was because this happened last week.

位於波多黎各的西奧-阿雷西博天文臺望遠鏡是世界上最強大的望遠鏡之一，我說是因為上週發生了這件事。

The radio telescope had been around since the 19 sixties, but it was not in good shape this summer.

射電望遠鏡從1960年代就開始使用了，但今年夏天它的狀況並不好。

One of the cables that supported its 900 ton platforms snapped, and then last month, another one broke and engineers say It was just a matter of time before the whole thing came tumbling down.

其中一條支撐其900噸平臺的電纜斷裂，然後上個月，另一條斷裂，工程師說這只是一個時間問題，整個東西都倒塌了。

They had a pretty good handle on the scope of the damage.
