What I learned from going blind in space | Chris Hadfield | TED

Prevodilac: Jelena Jevtić Lektor: Ivana Korom

What's the scariest thing you've ever done?

Koja je najstrašnija stvar koju ste ikada uradili?

Or another way to say it is,

Ili drugim rečima,

what's the most dangerous thing that you've ever done?

koja je najopasnija stvar koju ste ikada uradili?

And why did you do it?

I zašto ste to uradili?

I know what the most dangerous thing is

Znam koja je najopasnija stvar

that I've ever done

koju sam ja uradio,

because NASA does the math.

jer NASA je sve lepo proračunala.

You look back to the first five shuttle launches,

Ako pogledamo prvih pet lansiranja šatlova,

the odds of a catastrophic event

izgledi za katastrofičan ishod

during the first five shuttle launches

tokom prvih pet lansiranja šatlova,

was one in nine.

su bili jedan prema devet.

And even when I first flew in the shuttle

Čak i kada sam prvi put leteo u šatlu,

back in 1995, 74 shuttle flight,

još 1995., broj leta 74,

the odds were still now that we look back

sada kada pogledamo unazad, izgledi su još uvek

about one in 38 or so -- one in 35, one in 40.

oko jedan prema 38 ili jedan u 35, jedan u 40.

Not great odds, so it's a really interesting day

Ne baš sjajni izgledi, tako da je zaista zanimljiv dan

when you wake up at the Kennedy Space Center

kada se probudite u svemirskom centru Kenedi

and you're going to go to space that day

i znate da ćete istog dana putovati u svemir,

because you realize by the end of the day

jer vam je do kraja dana jasno:

you're either going to be floating effortlessly, gloriously in space,

ili ćete veličanstveno, sa lakoćom plutati u svemiru

or you'll be dead.

ili ćete biti mrtvi.

You go into, at the Kennedy Space Center,

U svemirskom centru Kenedi

the suit-up room,

ulazite u sobu za oblačenje,

the same room that our childhood heroes

istu sobu gde su se naši heroji iz detinjstva

got dressed in,

pripremali,

that Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin got suited in

gde su se Nil Amstrong i Baz Oldrin priremali

to go ride the Apollo rocket to the moon.

da bi prebacili Apolo raketu do meseca.

And I got my pressure suit built around me

Ograđen svojim odelom pod pritiskom,

and rode down outside in the van

spustio sam se napolje, do kombija,

heading out to the launchpad --

koji je kretao do piste za lansiranje.

in the Astro van -- heading out to the launchpad,

U Astro kombiju - koji je kretao do piste za lansiranje,

and as you come around the corner

A kako zađete iza ugla

at the Kennedy Space Center,

svemirskog centra Kenedi,

it's normally predawn, and in the distance,

obično je pred svanuće, a u daljini,

lit up by the huge xenon lights,

osvetljen ogromnim ksenonskim svetiljkama,

is your spaceship --

je vaš svemirski brod -

the vehicle that is going to take you off the planet.

vozilo koje će vas odvesti sa planete.

The crew is sitting in the Astro van

Posada sedi unutar Astro kombija,

sort of hushed, almost holding hands,

nečujno, skoro držeći se za ruke,

looking at that as it gets bigger and bigger.

gledajući ga kako postaje sve veći i veći.

We ride the elevator up

Liftom se penjemo

and we crawl in, on your hands and knees

i uvlačimo se, na rukama i kolenima

into the spaceship, one at a time,

u svemirski brod, jedan po jedan,

and you worm your way up

i tako uspete da dopuzite

into your chair and plunk yourself down

do svoje stolice i bacite se u nju,

on your back.

na svoja leđa.

And the hatch is closed,

Vratanca se zatvaraju

and suddenly,

i odjednom,

what has been a lifetime of both dreams and denial

ono što se činilo kao čitav život, i snivanja i poricanja,

is becoming real,

postaje stvarnost.

something that I dreamed about,

Nešto o čemu sam sanjao,

in fact, that I chose to do when I was nine years old,

u stvari, što sam izabrao da radim još u devetoj godini

is now suddenly within not too many minutes

sada će se iznenada, u samo nekoliko minuta,

of actually happening.

zaista i desiti.

In the astronaut business --

Na račun astronauta -

the shuttle is a very complicated vehicle;

šatl je veoma komplikovano vozilo

it's the most complicated flying machine ever built.

najkomplikovanija letelica koja je ikada sagrađena.

And in the astronaut business, we have a saying, which is,

I mi astronauti imamo običaj da kažemo,

there is no problem so bad

nema tog problema, koji je toliko loš

that you can't make it worse.

da ga ti ne možeš učiniti još gorim.

(Laughter)

(Smeh)

And so you're very conscious in the cockpit;

I tako ste veoma svesni u kabini:

you're thinking about all of the things

razmišljate o svim stvarima

that you might have to do,

koje ćete možda morati da radite,

all the switches and all the wickets you have to go through.

o svim prekidačima i otvorima kroz koje morate da prođete.

And as the time gets closer and closer,

Kako se vreme približava,

this excitement is building.

uzbuđenje raste.

And then about three and a half minutes before launch,

A zatim, tri i po minuta pre lansiranja,

the huge nozzles on the back,

velike zadnje mlaznice,

like the size of big church bells,

veličine ckvenih zvona,

swing back and forth

ljuljaju se napred, nazad.

and the mass of them is such

Njihova masa je tolika

that it sways the whole vehicle,

da njiše celu letelicu,

like the vehicle is alive underneath you,

kao da je letelica ispod vas oživela,

like an elephant getting up off its knees or something.

poput slona koji ustaje ili tome slično.

And then about 30 seconds before launch,

I onda 30 sekundi pre lansiranja,

the vehicle is completely alive --

letelica je potpuno oživela,

it is ready to go --

spremna je za poletanje -

the APUs are running,

APM je pokrenut,

the computers are all self-contained,

kompjuteri su na automatskom režimu.

it's ready to leave the planet.

Vreme je da napustimo planetu.

And 15 seconds before launch, this happens:

Petnaest sekundi pre poletanja, ovo se događa:

(Video) Voice: 12, 11, 10,

(Video) Glas: 12, 11, 10,

nine, eight, seven, six --

devet, osam, sedam, šest...

(Space shuttle preparing for takeoff)

(Spejs-šatl se priprema za poletanje)

-- start, two, one,

počinje, dva, jedan,

booster ignition, and liftoff of the space shuttle Discovery,

paljenje motora, i poletanje svemirskog šatla Diskaveri,

returning to the space station, paving the way ...

povratak u svemirsku stanicu, otvara put...

(Space shuttle taking off)

(Spejs-šatl poleće)

Chris Hadfield: It is incredibly powerful

Neverovatno je moćno

to be on board one of these things.

biti ukrcan na jednoj od ovakvih stvari.

You are in the grip of something

Unutar ste nečega

that is vastly more powerful than yourself.

što je mnogo jače od vas samih.

It's shaking you so hard you can't focus

Trese vas toliko jako da ne možete da se koncentrišete

on the instruments in front of you.

na instrumente ispred vas.

It's like you're in the jaws of some enormous dog

Kao da ste u čeljustima nekog ogromnog psa

and there's a foot in the small of your back

i da vas neka noga, po zadnjem delu kičme,

pushing you into space,

gura ka svemiru,

accelerating wildly straight up,

mahnito ubrazavajući gore,

shouldering your way through the air,

probijajući vam put kroz vazduh,

and you're in a very complex place --

i vi ste na veoma složenom mestu,

paying attention, watching the vehicle

sa punom pažnjom, posmatrate letelicu,

go through each one of its wickets

prolazite kroz svaka vratanca

with a steadily increasing smile on your face.

sa sve većim osmehom na licu.

After two minutes, those solid rockets explode off

Posle dva minuta, rakete sa čvrstim gorivom eksplodiraju

and then you just have the liquid engines,

i onda samo ostaju motori na tečno gorivo,

the hydrogen and oxygen,

vodonik i kiseonik,

and it's as if you're in a dragster

kao da ste u trkačkom automobilu

with your foot to the floor

sa nogom na gasu

and accelerating like you've never accelerated.

i ubrzavate kao nikada do sada.

You get lighter and lighter,

Postajete sve lakši i lakši,

the force gets on us heavier and heavier.

sile deluju na nas sve jače i jače,

It feels like

Osećaj kao da neko

someone's pouring cement on you or something.

posipa cement po vama.

Until finally,

Dok konačno,

after about eight minutes and 40 seconds or so,

posle skoro osam minuta i 40 sekundi,

we are finally at exactly the right altitude,

konačno smo tačno na pravoj visini,

exactly the right speed,

pravoj brzini,

the right direction, the engine shut off,

i odgovarajućem pravcu, motori se isključuju.

and we're weightless.

Mi smo u bestežinskom stanju.

And we're alive.

I živi smo.

It's an amazing experience.

To je neverovatno iskustvo.

But why would we take that risk?

Ali zašto bismo rizikovali?

Why would you do something that dangerous?

Zašto biste uradili nešto toliko opasno?

In my case the answer is fairly straightforward.

U mom slučaju, odgovor je potpuno očigledan.

I was inspired as a youngster

Kao mali bio sam inspirisan

that this was what I wanted to do.

ovim zanimanjem.

I watched the first people walk on the moon

Gledao sam prve ljude kako šetaju po mesecu

and to me, it was just an obvious thing --

i meni je to bilo jasno -

I want to somehow turn myself into that.

želeo sam da sebe nekako pretvorim u to.

But the real question is,

Ali pravo pitanje je,

how do you deal with the danger of it

kako se izboriti sa opasnostima

and the fear that comes from it?

i strahom koji proizlazi iz toga?

How do you deal with fear versus danger?

Kako da se izborite sa strahom naspram opasnosti?

And having the goal in mind, thinking about where it might lead,

Postavljeni cilj i razmišljanje o tome kuda me može odvesti,

directed me to a life of

usmerili su me ka životu,

looking at all of the small details to allow

u kome posmatram sve male detalje da bih omogućio

this to become possible,

da ovo postane stvarnost,

to be able to launch and go help build a space station

da mogu da se pokrenem, odem i pomognem u gradnji svemirske stanice,

where you are on board a million-pound creation

gde ste ukrcani na mašini teškoj 455 tona,

that's going around the world at five miles a second,

koja putuje oko planete brzinom od 5 milja u sekundi,

eight kilometers a second,

osam kilometara u sekundi,

around the world 16 times a day,

oko 16 puta u toku dana,

with experiments on board that are teaching us

dok se unutra vrše eksperimenti koji nas uče

what the substance of the universe is made of

od koje supstance je načinjen unverzum,

and running 200 experiments inside.

i koja pokreće 200 eksperimenata unutar nje.

But maybe even more importantly,

Možda još važnije,

allowing us to see the world in a way

dopušta nam, da svet vidimo na način

that is impossible through any other means,

koji je nemoguć u bilo kom drugom smislu,

to be able to look down

da možemo da pogledamo dole,

and have -- if your jaw could drop, it would --

i uživamo - da vilica može da vam ispadne, to bi se i desilo,

the jaw-dropping gorgeousness of the turning orb

u zanosnoj lepoti nebeskog tela koje se okreće,

like a self-propelled art gallery of fantastic,

kao samohodna galerija fantastične,

constantly changing beauty that is the world itself.

stalno promenljive lepote koja i jeste sama planeta.

And you see, because of the speed,

I možete videti, zbog brzine,

a sunrise or a sunset every 45 minutes

izlazak i zalazak Sunca na svakih 45 minuta,

for half a year.

tokom pola godine.

And the most magnificent part of all that

Najveličanstveniji deo svega toga

is to go outside on a spacewalk.

je ići u svemirsku šetnju.

You are in a one-person spaceship

Vi ste u svemirskom brodu za jednu osobu,

that is your spacesuit,

što predstavlja vaše svemirsko odelo,

and you're going through space with the world.

i vi svemirom šetate zajedno sa planetom.

It's an entirely different perspective,

Potpuno drugačija perspektiva,

you're not looking up at the universe,

ne gledate gore prema univerzumu,

you and the Earth are going through the universe together.

vi i Zemlja zajedno putujete svemirom.

And you're holding on with one hand,

Držite se jednom rukom,

looking at the world turn beside you.

gledajući kako se svet okreće pored vas.

It's roaring silently

Tiho bruji,

with color and texture as it pours by

sa teksturom i bojama koje se prelivaju

mesmerizingly next to you.

očaravajuće pored vas.

And if you can tear your eyes away from that

Ako uspete da odvojite oči od toga,

and you look under your arm

i pogledate ispod svoje ruke

down at the rest of everything,

dole na ostatak svega,

it's unfathomable blackness,

gde je nedokučivo crnilo

with a texture you feel like you could stick your hand into.

sa takvom teksturom da osećate da možete zaroniti unutra svoju ruku.

and you are holding on with one hand,

i pridržavate se jednom rukom,

one link to the other seven billion people.

jedina veza sa ostalih sedam milijardi ljudi.

And I was outside on my first spacewalk

Bio sam napolju na svojoj prvoj svemirskoj šetnji,

when my left eye went blind,

kada je moje levo oko postalo slepo,

and I didn't know why.

a ja nisam znao zašto.

Suddenly my left eye slammed shut

Moje levo oko se odjednom zatvorilo uz ogroman bol,

in great pain

and I couldn't figure out why my eye wasn't working.

a ja nisam mogao da shvatim zašto moje oko ne funkcioniše.

I was thinking, what do I do next?

Razmišljao sam, šta sada da radim.

I thought, well maybe that's why we have two eyes,

Mislio sam da je možda to razlog što postoje dva oka.

so I kept working.

But unfortunately, without gravity,

Tako da sam nastavio da radim.

Ali nažalost, bez gravitacije,

tears don't fall.

suze se ne slivaju.

So you just get a bigger and bigger ball of whatever that is

Stvara se sve veća i veća lopta,

mixed with your tears on your eye

koja je pomešana sa vašim suzama, u oku,

until eventually, the ball becomes so big

dok najzad, lopta ne postane toliko velika

that the surface tension takes it across the bridge of your nose

da je površinski napon spušta preko korena nosa,

like a tiny little waterfall

kao maleni vodopad,

and goes "goosh" into your other eye,

pravo u vaše drugo oko.

and now I was completely blind

I tada, ja sam bio potpuno slep,

outside the spaceship.

van svemirskog broda.

So what's the scariest thing you've ever done?

I šta je najstrašnija stvar koju ste vi ikada uradili?

(Laughter)

(Smeh)

Maybe it's spiders.

Možda su to paukovi.

A lot of people are afraid of spiders.

Dosta ljudi se plaši paukova.

I think you should be afraid of spiders --

Mislim da bi i trebalo da se plašite paukova.

spiders are creepy and they've got long, hairy legs,

Paukovi si jezivi i imaju dugačke, dlakave noge,

and spiders like this one, the brown recluse --

i paukovi kao ovaj, smeđi pauk samotnjak -

it's horrible. If a brown recluse bites you,

užasan je. Ako vas smeđi pustinjak ujede,

you end with one of these horrible, big necrotic things

završićete sa jednom ovakvom nekrotičnom ranom na nozi.

on your leg

and there might be one right now

Možda jedan, upravo sada,

sitting on the chair behind you, in fact.

čeka na stolici iza vas.

And how do you know?

Kako biste i znali?

And so a spider lands on you,

I tako pauk se spusti na vas,

and you go through this great, spasmy attack

a vi prolazite kroz jedan veliki, grčevit napad,

because spiders are scary.

jer paukovi i jesu strašni.

But then you could say, well is there a brown recluse

Ali mogli ste isto tako reći, da li stvarno smeđi samotnjak,

sitting on the chair beside me or not?

čeka na stolici iza mene ili ne?

I don't know. Are there brown recluses here?

Ne znam. Da li ovde ima smeđih pustinjaka?

So if you actually do the research, you find out that

Tako da, ako malo istražujete, otkrićete da

in the world there are about 50,000 different types of spiders,

na svetu postoji oko 50 000 različitih vrsta paukova,

and there are about two dozen that are venomous

i oko dve desetine njih su otrovni,

out of 50,000.

od tih 50 000.

And if you're in Canada, because of the cold winters

Ako ste u Kanadi, zbog hladnih zima,

here in B.C., there's about 720, 730 different types of spiders

ovde u Britanskoj Kolumbiji ima oko 720, 730 različitih vrsta paukova,

and there's one -- one --

a samo jedna - jedna -

that is venomous,

koja je otrovna,

and its venom isn't even fatal,

a taj otrov nije čak ni fatalan,

it's just kind of like a nasty sting.

više je kao gadan ubod.

And that spider -- not only that,

I taj pauk - ne samo taj -

but that spider has beautiful markings on it,

ali baš taj ima prelepa obeležja po sebi,

it's like "I'm dangerous. I got a big radiation symbol on my back, it's the black widow."

u smislu: "Ja sam opasan, imam ogroman simbol na leđima, to je crna udovica."

So, if you're even slightly careful

Tako da, ako ste samo malo pažljivi

you can avoid running into the one spider --

možete da izbegnete da naletite na takvog pauka.

and it lives close the ground,

On živi blizu zemlje,

you're walking along, you are never going to go through

i ako šetate, nikada nećete proći kroz

a spider web where a black widow bites you.

paučinu gde vas crna udovica može ujesti.

Spider webs like this, it doesn't build those,

Ovakve paučine, ne pravi takve,

it builds them down in the corners.

stvara ih dole, u uglovima.

And its a black widow because

I ona je crna udovica,

the female spider eats the male;

jer ženka pauka proždire mužjaka; njoj nije stalo do vas.

it doesn't care about you.

So in fact,

U suštini,

the next time you walk into a spiderweb,

kada sledeći put naletite na paučinu,

you don't need to panic and go with your caveman reaction.

ne morate da paničite i ispoljavate vašu pećinsku reakciju.

The danger is entirely different than the fear.

Opasnost je potpuno drugačija od straha.

How do you get around it, though?

Kako se snalazite u njoj?

How do you change your behavior?

Kako menjate svoje ponašanje?

Well, next time you see a spiderweb,

Sledeći put kada ugledate paučinu,

have a good look, make sure it's not a black widow spider,

dobro pogledajte, uverite se da nije reč o crnoj udovici

and then walk into it.

i prođite kroz nju.

And then you see another spiderweb

I kada vidite još paučine, ušetajte i nju.

and walk into that one.

It's just a little bit of fluffy stuff. It's not a big deal.

To je samo jedna paperjasta stvar, nije bog zna šta.

And the spider that may come out is no more threat to you than a lady bug

A pauk koji se može pojaviti na njoj, nije veća pretnja od bubamare,

or a butterfly.

ili leptira,

And then I guarantee you if you walk through 100 spiderwebs

i garantujem vam, ako budete prošli kroz 100 paučina,

you will have changed

promenićete

your fundamental human behavior,

vaše fundamentalno ljudsko ponašanje,

your caveman reaction,

reakciju pećinskog čoveka,

and you will now be able to walk in the park in the morning

i moći ćete ujutru da šetate parkom

and not worry about that spiderweb --

i da ne brinete o toj paučini

or into your grandma's attic or whatever,

- ili bakinim tavanom

into your own basement.

ili vašim podrumom.

And you can apply this to anything.

Ovo možete primeniti na sve.

If you're outside on a spacewalk and you're blinded,

Ako se zadesite napolju na jednoj svemirskoj šetnji i zaslepljeni ste,

your natural reaction would be to panic, I think.

vaša prirodna rekacija bi bila panika, rekao bih.

It would make you nervous and worried.

Bili biste zabrinuti i nervozni,

But we had considered all the venom,

ali mi smo uzeli u obzir sve vrste otrova,

and we had practiced with a whole variety of different spiderwebs.

i vežbali smo na različitim paučinama.

We knew everything there is to know

Znali smo sve što je potrebno

about the spacesuit

o svemirskim odelima

and we trained underwater thousands of times.

i hiljadu puta smo imali podvodne treninge.

And we don't just practice things going right,

Mi i ne vežbamo samo kada je sve u redu,

we practice things going wrong all the time,

već kao kada bi stvari krenule naopako,

so that you are constantly walking through those spiderwebs.

tako da neprestano hodamo kroz te paučine.

And not just underwater, but also in virtual reality labs

I ne samo pod vodom, već i u laboratorijama virtuelne realnosti

with the helmet and the gloves

sa kacigama i rukavicama

so you feel like it's realistic.

da biste osećali da je sve stvarnost.

So when you finally actually get outside on a spacewalk,

Tako da, kada konačno izađete u svemirsku šetnju,

it feels much different than it would

osećaj je dosta drugačiji, nego što bi bio

if you just went out first time.

da ste prvi put samo tako izašli.

And even if you're blinded,

Čak iako ste slepi,

your natural, panicky reaction doesn't happen.

vaša prirodna, panična reakcija se ne dešava,

Instead you kind of look around and go,

Umesto toga, sagledate:

"Okay, I can't see,

"U redu, ne mogu da vidim,

but I can hear, I can talk,

ali mogu da čujem, da pričam.

Scott Parazynski is out here with me.

Skot Parazinski je ovde sa mnom.

He could come over and help me."

On može da dođe i da mi pomogne."

We actually practiced incapacitated crew rescue,

Mi smo, u stvari i vežbali spasavanje onesposobljenog člana posade,

so he could float me like a blimp

tako da bi on mogao da me nosi kao balon

and stuff me into the airlock if he had to.

i ubaci u vazdušnu komoru, ako bude morao.

I could find my own way back.

Ja sam mogao da pronađem svoj put nazad.

It's not nearly as big a deal.

Nije ni približno velikoj frci.

And actually, if you keep on crying for a while,

Uostalom, ako neko vreme plačete,

whatever that gunk was that's in your eye starts to dilute

bilo kakva da je ta čestica koju ste imali u oku,

and you can start to see again,

ona počinje da se rastvara i počinjete ponovo da vidite,

and Houston, if you negotiate with them,

i ako pregovarate sa Hjustonom,

they will let you then keep working.

pustiće vas da nastavite sa radom.

We finished everything on the spacewalk

Sve smo završili u svemirskoj šetnji,

and when we came back inside,

i kada smo se vratili unutra,

Jeff got some cotton batting and took the crusty stuff around my eyes,

Džef je sa tuferima odstranio ostatke te stvari oko mojih očiju

and it turned out it was just the anti-fog,

i ispostavilo se da je to bio samo antifog,

sort of a mixture of oil and soap, that got in my eye.

neka mešavina ulja i sapuna, koja je dospela u moje oko.

And now we use Johnson's No More Tears,

I sada koristimo Džonson, nema više suza,

which we probably should've been using

koji je trebalo da koristimo

right from the very beginning. (Laughter)

i od samog početka. (Smeh)

But the key to that is

Ali ključno pitanje je,

by looking at the difference

posmatrajući razliku

between perceived danger and actual danger,

između doživljene opasnosti i stvarne opasnosti,

where is the real risk?

gde je tu pravi rizik?

What is the real thing that you should be afraid of?

Koja je prava stvar od koje bi trebalo da strahujete?

Not just a generic fear of bad things happening.

Ne samo neki uopšteni strah od loših stvari.

You can fundamentally change your reaction to things

Možete korenito izmeniti vašu reakciju na takve stvari,

so that it allows you to go places

da biste mogli da idete na mesta,

and see things and do things

vidite i radite stvari

that otherwise would be completely denied to you ...

kojih biste, u suprotnom, bili sasvim lišeni...

where you could see the hardpan south of the Sahara,

gde možete videti hardpan na severu Sahare,

or you can see New York City

ili možete videti Njujork

in a way that is almost dreamlike,

na način koji je skoro nestvaran,

or the unconscious gingham of Eastern Europe fields

ili nestvarne predele istočne Evrope

or the Great Lakes

ili Velika jezera

as a collection of small puddles.

kao skup malih bara.

You can see the fault lines of San Francisco

Možete videti rased San Franciska

and the way the water pours out under the bridge,

i način na koji se voda preliva ispod mosta,

just entirely different

sve potpuno drugačije,

than any other way that you could have

od bilo kojeg drugog načina,

if you had not found a way to conquer your fear.

da niste pronašli način da savladate strah.

You see a beauty that otherwise

Vidite lepotu, koju inače

never would have happened.

nikada ne biste mogli.

It's time to come home at the end.

Na kraju, vreme je da se pođe kući.

This is our spaceship,

Ovo je naš svemirski brod,

the Soyuz, that little one.

Sojuz, ovaj maleni.

Three of us climb in,

Nas trojica se penjemo unutra,

and then this spaceship detaches from the station

a potom se svemirski brod razdvaja od stanice

and falls into the atmosphere.

i pada u atmosferu.

These two parts here

Ova dva dela ovde

actually melt, we jettison them and they burn up

se u stvari istope, mi ih odbacimo, a oni sagore u atmosferi.

in the atmosphere.

The only part that survives is the little bullet

Jedini deo koji preživljava, je mali metak

that we're riding in,

u kojem se mi vozimo,

and it falls into the atmosphere,

i koji pada kroz atmosferu.

and in essence

U suštini,

you are riding a meteorite home,

vi meteoritom putujete kuci,

and riding meteorites is scary,

a voziti meteroit je strašno,

and it ought to be.

a i mora biti.

But instead of riding into the atmosphere

Umesto da vozimo kroz atmosferu

just screaming, like you would

uz vrisku, kao što biste radili

if suddenly you found yourself riding a meteorite

ako biste se odjednom našli kako vozite meteorit

back to Earth -- (Laughter) --

do Zemlje - (Smeh) -

instead, 20 years previously

umesto toga, mi smo dvadeset godina ranije

we had started studying Russian,

počeli da učimo ruski,

and then once you learn Russian, then we

a kada jednom naučite ruski,

learned orbital mechanics in Russian,

onda ste naučili i astrodinamiku na ruskom,

and then we learned vehicle control theory,

a potom i teoriju upravljanja vozilom.

and then we got into the simulator

Onda smo dospeli u simulator

and practiced over and over and over again.

i vežbali sve iznova i iznova.

And in fact, you can fly this meteorite

I u stvari, možete leteti ovim meteoritom

and steer it and land in about a 15-kilometer circle

i upravljati njime i prizemljiti ga u krugu od 15 km,

anywhere on the Earth.

bilo gde na Zemlji.

So in fact, when our crew was coming back

Tako da, kada se naša posada vraćala

into the atmosphere inside the Soyuz,

nazad u atmosferu, unutar Sojuza,

we weren't screaming, we were laughing;

mi nismo vrištali, mi smo se smejali.

it was fun.

Bilo je zabavno.

And when the great big parachute opened,

I kada se veliki padobran otvorio,

we knew that if it didn't open

znali smo da, ako se ne otvori, postoji i drugi padobran,

there's a second parachute,

and it runs on a nice little clockwork mechanism.

koji radi na finom, malom satnom mehanizmu.

So we came back, we came thundering back

I tako smo se munjevito vratili nazad

to Earth and this is what it looked like

na Zemlju i ovako je izgledalo

to land in a Soyuz, in Kazakhstan.

sleteti Sojuzom u Kazahstan.

(Video) Reporter: And you can see one of those

(Video) Reporter: I možete videti jedan od onih

search and recovery helicopters, once again

spasilačkih helikoptera, još jednom

that helicopter part of dozen such Russian

taj helihopter pripada grupi od desetak takvih ruskih

Mi-8 helicopters.

Mi-8 helikoptera.

Touchdown -- 3:14 and 48 seconds,

Sletanje - 3:14 i 48 sekundi,

a.m. Central Time.

ujutru, centralno vreme.

CH: And you roll to a stop

KH: Zaustavite se uz kotrljanje,

as if someone threw your spaceship at the ground

kao da je neko bacio vaš svemirski brod na zemlju,

and it tumbles end over end,

on se pretura u krug, ali ste pripremljeni na to

but you're ready for it

you're in a custom-built seat,

you know how the shock absorber works.

nalazite se u prilagođenim sedištima, znate kako rade amortizeri.

And then eventually the Russians reach in,

A onda, na kraju Rusi stižu, izvlače vas napolje,

drag you out,

plunk you into a chair,

bace vas na stolicu,

and you can now look back at

i sada možete pogledati unazad,

what was an incredible experience.

ka nečemu što je bilo neverovatno iskustvo.

You have taken the dreams of that

Vi ste uzeli snove tog

nine-year-old boy,

devetogišnjaka,

which were impossible

koji su bili nemogući

and dauntingly scary,

i obeshrabrujuće strašni,

dauntingly terrifying,

obeshrabrujuće užasni,

and put them into practice,

i ostvarili ste ih.

and figured out a way to reprogram yourself,

Otkrili ste način, kako da reprogramirate sebe,

to change your primal fear

da izmenite primarni strah,

so that it allowed you to come back

tako da ste sebi dozvolili da se vratite

with a set of experiences and a level of inspiration

sa toliko doživljaja, i inspiracijom

for other people

za druge ljude,

that never could have been possible otherwise.

koja drugačije i ne bi bila moguća.

Just to finish, they asked me to play that guitar.

Samo da završim, zamolili su me da sviram gitaru.

I know this song,

Znam jednu pesmu.

and it's really a tribute to the genius

Ona je zaista priznanje genijalnom

of David Bowie himself,

Dejvidu Boviju,

but it's also, I think,

ali isto tako je, smatram,

a reflection of the fact that we are not machines

odraz činjenice da mi nismo mašine

exploring the universe,

koje istražuju svemir,

we are people,

mi smo ljudi.

and we're taking

Mi nosimo

that ability to adapt

tu sposobnost da se prilagodimo,

and that ability to understand

sposobnost da razumemo,

and the ability to take

i sposobnost da prenesemo

our own self-perception into a new place.

svoju samo-percepciju na neko novo mesto.
