好吧，就像那些童話故事一樣，

這個故事要從很久很久以前講起，

So here is a complete picture of the universe

All energy is concentrated into a single point of energy.

所有的能量都集中在一個能量點

So you're now about 14 billion years into this.

And these things expand and expand and expand

而且在不斷地擴大、擴大、擴大

And I want you to pay particular attention

And what you're looking at is columns of dust

by the way, the scale of this is a trillion vertical miles --

順便提一句，它的規模有一萬億英里

and what's happening is there's so much dust,

This one happens to be a particularly important galaxy,

And as you take a close-up of this galaxy,

By the way, you're now about two-thirds of the way into this story.

順便提一句，這個故事已經講了三分之二了

until about two-thirds of the way into this story.

And this is about a little over four billion years ago.

And life starts to expand and expand and expand,

而且不斷地擴大、擴大、再擴大

what happens is you get more and more complexity,

until about 99.96 percent of the time into this story,

just to put ourselves and our ancestors in perspective.

以便我們正確看待自己和我們的祖先

So within that context, there's two theories of the case

And the reason for trillions of galaxies,

以及數量眾多的行星存在的原因

is to create something that looks like that

The only question you might want to ask yourself is,

這樣的解釋是不是有些妄自尊大呢？

and particularly given the fact that we came very close to extinction.

特別是鑒於人類曾經接近滅絕的事實

There were only about 2,000 of our species left.

So maybe you have to think about a second theory

因此我們也許不得不考慮另一種理論

第二種理論是：我們能不能「升級」?

Well, why would one ask a question like that?

怎麼會有人問出這樣的問題呢？

Because there have been at least 29 upgrades so far

And it turns out that we keep discovering upgrades.

而且我們還在不斷地發現新的「升級」的證據
