:47:02
. . .for everyone to have a whole world?
:47:06
We don't know how many of those worlds
are inhabited. . .
:47:09
. . .and by what kind of creatures.
:47:11
But one day we should know,
perhaps by radio. . .
:47:15
. . .perhaps by other means,
perhaps by direct contact.
:47:19
The impact of that on the human race
will be profound. . .
:47:23
. . .especially if we encounter
creatures far in advance. . .
:47:27
. . .of our own primitive species.
:47:29
It's a wonderful thing to look forward
to and perhaps a terrifying one.
:47:34
It may happen in our lifetimes.
It may not happen for 1 000 years.
:47:38
But one day, we will know
the truth about. . .
:47:41
. . .this incredible and wonderful
universe around us. . .
:47:45
. . .and perhaps understand our
own place in it.
:47:49
The extraordinary audacity,
power and, I think, guts. . .
:47:54
. . .to say, "Let's screech everything
to a halt, take everybody. . .
:47:58
. . .back to prehistoric times
where it wasn't that fast. "
:48:02
Considering the way the world was
moving so quickly, this just said:
:48:06
"I want you to see something.
:48:08
I'll take you through something
you never thought you'd experience. "
