ir daudz vairāk, nekā jūs domājat.
than you think, actually.
everything that matters --
it viss, kas ir svarīgs,
but we can't see what holds them apart,
bet mēs neredzam, kas notur tās atstatus
mēs redzam tikai ārējo čaulu,
we see only the skin of things,
mēs neredzam, kas darās cilvēku galvās,
we can't see what makes people tick,
the more it disappears.
really closely at stuff,
ja ieskatāmies lietu pamata daļiņās,
substructure of matter,
un paliek tikai enerģija.
and there is only energy.
neredzamības iezīmēm ir,
about invisibility is,
mēs nevaram arī izprast.
we also can't understand.
and which we don't understand.
ko neredzam un arī neizprotam.
no četriem pamatspēkiem
of all the four fundamental forces,
kas tas ir vai kāpēc tas pastāv.
knows what it is or why it's there.
dižākais zinātnieks, kāds jelkad dzīvojis,
the greatest scientist who ever lived,
tikai lai darbinātu gravitācijas sviras.
to Earth specifically
varbūt kļūdījās, nezinu.
on that one, I don't know.
I've no idea what any of you are thinking.
man nav ne jausmas, ko katrs no jums domā.
ka nespējam lasīt viens otra domas,
each other's minds,
pat nogaršot, ja tiekam pietiekami tuvu,
taste each other,
but we can't read each other's minds.
this great Middle Eastern religion
kuru daži uzskata par visu reliģiju sakni,
is the root of all religions,
all telepaths, so they say,
vismaz tā viņi apgalvo,
izsūtīt spēcīgus signālus mums pārējiem,
to the rest of us that it doesn't exist.
sūfiju meistari mūs apstrādā.
the Sufi masters working on us.
and artificial intelligence,
like the study of consciousness,
tāpat kā apziņas pētījumi
ne jausmas, kā darbojas apziņa.
how consciousness works.
artificial intelligence,
mākslīgo saprātu,
artificial stupidity.
eternal, omnipresent, all powerful.
mūžīgi, visuresoši, visvareni.
not a materialist, I'm an immaterialist.
es esmu nemateriālists,
jaunu vārdu — ignostiķis.
new word -- ignostic.
par to, vai Dievs pastāv,
on whether God exists
is the human genome.
because about 20 years ago
kad pievērsās genoma izpētei,
they thought it would probably contain
ap 100 tūkstošiem gēnu.
it's been revised downwards.
to precizē uz leju.
to be just over 20 thousand genes
ir drusku vairāk nekā 20 tūkstoši gēnu.
because rice -- get this --
jo rīsos — uzminiet nu! —
two more than people,
bet tās ir ļoti dīvainas.
but they are very strange.
man tas vienmēr šķiet apbrīnojami.
think that's fascinating.
the less you can see.
Mūsdienu fizikā ir liela kustība,
ka laiks patiesībā nepastāv,
for the figures.
except in your memory.
izņemot savās atmiņās.
things about the past
ka jūs jo īpaši nevarat ieraudzīt...
„Tēt, vai atceries, kāds es biju 2 gados?”
what I was like when I was two?
Viņš: „Kāpēc tad es neatceros?”
pirms 2—3 gadu vecuma.
earlier than the age of two or three.
because otherwise they'd be out of a job.
jo citādi viņi paliktu bez darba,
ir režģis, uz kā balstāmies.
is the grid on which we hang.
that cells are continually renewed.
ka šūnas nepārtraukti atjaunojas.
nails, that kind of stuff --
kādā brīdī tiek aizstāta ar jaunu.
is replaced at some point.
vajag nedaudz vairāk laika.
take a bit longer.
neviena šūna tavā ķermenī
not one cell in your body
seven years ago.
who then are we? What are we?
uz kā mēs turamies, kas mēs esam?
Tie ir mazāki nekā gaismas viļņa garums.
than the wavelength of light.
Interesanti, kāds nesen minēja 1600. gadu.
mentioned 1600 recently.

vārda jaunradi,
called "blas," meaning astral radiation.
ar to domājot zvaigžņu starojumu.
tieši gar tavām acīm, tu to neredzēsi.
you won't see it.
will disagree with this.
gaismas staru, ir dīvaini.
the beam of light,
they understand electricity, they don't.
ka viņi izprot elektrību, tā nav.
in an electric wire move instantaneously
ka, tiklīdz ieslēdzat gaismu,
sāk kustēties gaismas ātrumā,
at the speed of light,
virzās apmēram plūstoša medus ātrumā.
honey, they say.
simts miljardi galaktiku, simts miljardi!
Hundred billion.
piecas no simts miljardiem galaktiku,
galaxies, with the naked eye.
ja vien nav ļoti laba redze.
unless you've got very good eyesight.
un nosauca par radioviļņiem,
radio waves, in 1887,
because they radiated.
„Un kāda no tiem ir jēga, Heinrih?
"What's the point of these, Heinrich?
tevis atklātajiem radioviļņiem?”
that you've found?"
„bet gan kādudien tie kādam noderēs.”
a use for them someday.
ir tas, ko mēs nezinām.
to us is what we don't know.

"What's another thing we can't see?"
„Ko vēl mēs neredzam?”
