Well, I learned a lot of things about ballooning,
0
0
4000
Naučio sam mnogo stvari o balonaštvu,
00:19
especially at the end of these balloon flights
1
4000
4000
posebno na posljednjim letovima balonom
00:23
around the world I did with Brian Jones.
2
8000
2000
oko svijeta sa Brianom Jonesom.
00:25
When I took this picture,
3
10000
2000
Kada sam napravio ovu forografiju,
00:27
the window was frozen because of the moisture of the night.
4
12000
4000
prozor je bio zaleđen zbog vlage po noći.
00:31
And on the other side there was a rising sun.
5
16000
2000
A na drugoj je strani bilo izlazeće sunce.
00:33
So, you see that on the other side of ice
6
18000
4000
Vidite da na drugoj strani leda
00:37
you have the unknown,
7
22000
2000
imate nepoznato,
00:39
you have the non-obvious,
8
24000
3000
imate neočigledno,
00:42
you have the non-seen,
9
27000
2000
imate neviđeno,
00:44
for the people who don't dare
10
29000
2000
za ljude koji se ne usude
00:46
to go through the ice.
11
31000
2000
ići kroz led.
00:48
There are so many people
12
33000
2000
Ima mnogo ljudi koji
00:50
who prefer to suffer in the ice they know
13
35000
3000
radije pate u ledu kojeg poznaju
00:53
instead of taking the risk of going through the ice
14
38000
3000
umjesto da riskiraju proći kroz led
00:56
to see what there is on the other side.
15
41000
3000
i vidjeti što je s druge strane.
00:59
And I think that's one of the main problems of our society.
16
44000
4000
Smatram da je to jedan od glavnih problema našeg društva.
01:03
We learn, maybe not the famous TED audience,
17
48000
3000
Mi učimo, možda ne poznata TED publika,
01:06
but so many other people learn,
18
51000
3000
ali mnogo drugih ljudi uči
01:09
that the unknown, the doubts,
19
54000
2000
da su nepoznato, sumnje
01:11
the question marks are dangerous.
20
56000
2000
i "upitnici" opasni.
01:13
And we have to resist to the changes.
21
58000
3000
Moramo se oduprijeti promjenama.
01:16
We have to keep everything under control.
22
61000
4000
Moramo sve držati pod kontrolom.
01:20
Well, the unknown is part of life.
23
65000
3000
Međutim, nepoznato je dio života.
01:23
And in that sense, ballooning is a beautiful metaphor.
24
68000
4000
I u tom smislu, balonaštvo je lijepa metafora.
01:27
Because in the balloon, like in life,
25
72000
3000
Zato što sa balonom, kao i u životu,
01:30
we go very well in unforeseen directions.
26
75000
3000
idemo jako dobro u nepredviđenim smjerovima.
01:33
We want to go in a direction,
27
78000
2000
Želimo ići jednim smjerom,
01:35
but the winds push us in another direction, like in life.
28
80000
3000
ali nas vjetar gura u drugi, baš kao i u životu.
01:38
And as long as we fight horizontally,
29
83000
3000
I dok god se mi borimo horizontalno,
01:41
against life, against the winds,
30
86000
3000
protiv života, protiv vjetrova,
01:44
against what's happening to us,
31
89000
2000
protiv onoga što nam se događa,
01:46
life is a nightmare.
32
91000
3000
život je noćna mora.
01:49
How do we steer a balloon?
33
94000
2000
Kako se upravlja balonom?
01:51
By understanding that the atmosphere
34
96000
2000
Zahvaljujući spoznaji da je atmosfera
01:53
is made out of several different layers of wind
35
98000
3000
sačinjena od nekoliko različitih slojeva vjetra
01:56
which all have different direction.
36
101000
3000
od kojih svaki ima različiti smjer.
01:59
So, then, we understand that if we want to change our trajectory,
37
104000
3000
I tada shvatimo da ako želimo izmijeniti našu putanju,
02:02
in life, or in the balloon,
38
107000
3000
u životu ili u balonu,
02:05
we have to change altitude.
39
110000
2000
moramo promijeniti visinu.
02:07
Changing altitude, in life,
40
112000
2000
Minjenjati visinu u životu
02:09
that means raising to another psychological, philosophical,
41
114000
4000
znači podizanje na durgu psihološku, filozofsku,
02:13
spiritual level.
42
118000
2000
duhovnu razinu.
02:15
But how do we do that?
43
120000
2000
Ali kako to činimo?
02:17
In ballooning, or in life,
44
122000
2000
U balonaštvu ili u životu,
02:19
how do we change altitude?
45
124000
2000
kako mijenjamo visinu?
02:21
How do we go from the metaphor
46
126000
2000
Kako dolazimo od metafore
02:23
to something more practical that we can really
47
128000
2000
do nečeg više praktičnog što bi mogli
02:25
use every day?
48
130000
2000
koristiti svakoga dana?
02:27
Well, in a balloon it's easy, we have ballast.
49
132000
2000
Dakle, u balonu je lako, za to postoji balast.
02:29
And when we drop the ballast overboard we climb.
50
134000
5000
I kada odbacimo balast, uspinjemo se.
02:34
Sand, water, all the equipment we don't need anymore.
51
139000
4000
Pijesak, vodu, svu opremu koja nam više nije potrebna.
02:38
And I think in life it should be exactly like this.
52
143000
3000
I smatram da bi u životu trebalo biti upravo tako.
02:41
You know, when people speak about pioneering spirit,
53
146000
3000
Znate, kada ljudi govore o pionirskom duhu,
02:44
very often they believe that pioneers
54
149000
2000
vrlo često vjeruju da su pioniri
02:46
are the ones who have new ideas.
55
151000
2000
ti koji imaju nove ideje.
02:48
It's not true.
56
153000
2000
To nije istina.
02:50
The pioneers are not the ones who have new ideas,
57
155000
2000
Nisu pioniri ti koji imaju nove ideje,
02:52
because new ideas are so easy to have.
58
157000
2000
jer lako je imati nove ideje.
02:54
We just close our eyes for a minute we all come back
59
159000
2000
Zatvorimo oči na minutu i vratimo se
02:56
with a lot of new ideas.
60
161000
2000
sa mnogo novih ideja.
02:58
No, the pioneer is the one who
61
163000
2000
Ne, pionir je onaj tko
03:00
allows himself to throw overboard a lot of ballast.
62
165000
3000
sebi dopušta da odbaci mnogo balasta.
03:03
Habits, certainties,
63
168000
3000
Navike, sigurnosti,
03:06
convictions, exclamation marks,
64
171000
5000
uvjerenja, usklike,
03:11
paradigms, dogmas.
65
176000
2000
paradigme, dogme.
03:13
And when we are able to do that,
66
178000
2000
I kada smo sposobni to učiniti
03:15
what happens?
67
180000
2000
što se dogodi?
03:17
Life is not anymore
68
182000
2000
Život više nije
03:19
just one line going in one direction
69
184000
4000
samo jedna linija koja se proteže u jednom smjeru
03:23
in one dimension. No.
70
188000
2000
u jednoj dimenziji. Ne.
03:25
Life is going to be made out of all the possible lines
71
190000
4000
Život počinju sačinjavati sve moguće linije
03:29
that go in all the possible directions
72
194000
2000
koje idu u svim mogućim smjerovima
03:31
in three dimensions.
73
196000
4000
u tri dimenzije.
03:35
And pioneering spirit will be each time we allow ourselves
74
200000
2000
Pionirski duh prisutan je svaki puta kada si dozvolimo
03:37
to explore this vertical axis.
75
202000
3000
istraživanje vertikalne osi.
03:40
Of course not just like the atmosphere in the balloon,
76
205000
2000
Naravno ne samo atmosfere dok smo u balonu,
03:42
but in life itself.
77
207000
2000
već i u samom životu.
03:44
Explore this vertical axis, that means
78
209000
3000
Istražiti tu vertikalnu os znači
03:47
explore all the different ways to do,
79
212000
2000
istražiti sve različite načine djelovanja,
03:49
all the different ways to behave, all the different ways to think,
80
214000
4000
sve različite načine ponašanja, sve različite načine razmišljanja,
03:53
before we find the one that goes in the direction we wish.
81
218000
5000
prije nego što pronađemo onaj koji ide u smjeru koji želimo.
03:58
This is very practical.
82
223000
2000
Ovo je vrlo praktično.
04:00
This can be in politics.
83
225000
2000
Ovo može biti i u politici.
04:02
This can be in spirituality.
84
227000
2000
Može biti u duhovnosti.
04:04
This can be in environment,
85
229000
2000
Može biti u okolišu,
04:06
in finance, in education of children.
86
231000
3000
u financijama, u obrazovanju djece.
04:09
I deeply believe
87
234000
2000
Duboko sam uvjeren
04:11
that life is a much greater adventure
88
236000
3000
da je život mnogo veća pustolovina
04:14
if we manage to do politics
89
239000
2000
ako uspijemo voditi politiku
04:16
without the trench between the left and the right wing.
90
241000
4000
bez razdjela između lijevog i desnog krila.
04:20
Because we will throw away these political dogmas.
91
245000
4000
Zato što ćemo odbaciti političke dogme.
04:24
I deeply believe that we can make much more protection of the environment
92
249000
4000
Duboko vjerujem da možemo znatno više zaštititi okoliš
04:28
if we get rid -- if we throw overboard
93
253000
3000
ako se rješimo - ako odbacimo
04:31
this fundamentalism that some of the greens have showed in the past.
94
256000
4000
ovaj fundamentalizam kojeg su neki zeleni pokazali u prošlosti.
04:35
And that we can aim for much higher spirituality
95
260000
3000
I da možemo ciljati na znatno višu duhovnost
04:38
if we get rid of the religious dogmas.
96
263000
2000
ako se rješimo vjerskih dogmi.
04:40
Throwing overboard, as ballast, to change our direction.
97
265000
4000
Odbacujući ih kao balast, kako bismo promijenili naš smjer.
04:44
Well, these basically are things I believed in such a long time.
98
269000
3000
Dakle, ovo su uglavnom stvari u koje vjerujem jako dugo.
04:47
But actually I had to go around the world in a balloon
99
272000
2000
Ali, morao sam obići svijet balonom
04:49
to be invited to talk about it.
100
274000
2000
da bih bio pozvan o tome pričati.
04:51
(Laughter)
101
276000
3000
(smijeh)
04:54
(Applause)
102
279000
6000
(pljesak)
05:00
It's clear that it's not easy to know which ballast to drop
103
285000
4000
Jasno da nije lako znati koji balast odbaciti
05:04
and which altitude to take. Sometime we need
104
289000
2000
i koju visinu dostići. Ponekad trebamo
05:06
friends, family members or a psychiatrist.
105
291000
3000
prijatelje, članove obitelji ili psihijatra.
05:09
Well, in balloons we need weather men,
106
294000
3000
U balonaštvu trebamo prognostičara,
05:12
the one who calculate the direction of each layer of wind,
107
297000
4000
onoga koji izračunava smjer svakog sloja vjetra,
05:16
at which altitude, in order to help the balloonist.
108
301000
3000
na svakoj visini, kako bi pomogao balonašu.
05:19
But sometimes it's very paradoxical.
109
304000
3000
No ponekad je to vrlo paradoksalno.
05:22
When Brian Jones and I were flying around the world,
110
307000
3000
Kada smo Brian Jones i ja putovali oko svijeta,
05:25
the weather man asked us, one day, to fly
111
310000
2000
prognostičar nas je jednog dana tražio da letimo
05:27
quite low, and very slow.
112
312000
3000
prilično nisko i sporo.
05:30
And when we calculated we thought we're never going to make it
113
315000
2000
Nakon što smo izračunali pomislili smo da nikada nećemo uspjeti
05:32
around the world at that speed.
114
317000
3000
obići svijet uz tu brzinu.
05:35
So, we disobeyed. We flew much higher, and double the speed.
115
320000
4000
Zato ga nismo poslušali. Letjeli smo mnogo više i dvostruko brže.
05:39
And I was so proud to have found that jetstream
116
324000
3000
Bio sam toliko ponosan što sam pronašao tu zračnu struju
05:42
that I called the weather man,
117
327000
2000
da sam nazvao prognostičara
05:44
and I told him, "Hey, guy, don't you think we're good pilots up there?
118
329000
3000
i rekao mu, "Hej čovječe, misliš li da ovdje gore nema dobrih pilota?"
05:47
We fly twice the speed you predicted."
119
332000
3000
"Letimo dvostruko brže od one koju si ti predvidjeo."
05:50
And he told me, "Don't do that. Go down immediately
120
335000
2000
Rekao mi je, "Nemoj to raditi. Odmah se spusti
05:52
in order to slow down."
121
337000
2000
da usporite."
05:54
And I started to argue. I said, "I'm not going to do that.
122
339000
2000
Počeo sam raspravljati. Rekao sam "Neću to učiniti.
05:56
We don't have enough gas to fly so slow."
123
341000
3000
Nemamo dovoljno plina da tako sporo letimo."
05:59
And he told me, "Yes, but with the low pressure you have on your left
124
344000
3000
On mi na to odgovori, "Da, ali sa niskim tlakom sa vaše lijeve strane
06:02
if you fly too fast, in a couple of hours
125
347000
3000
ako letite prebrzo, za nekoliko sati
06:05
you will turn left and end up at the North Pole.
126
350000
2000
skrenuti ćete ulijevo i završiti na Sjevernom polu."
06:07
(Laughter)
127
352000
2000
(smijeh)
06:09
And then he asked me --
128
354000
2000
Onda me upitao --
06:11
and this is something I will never forget in my life --
129
356000
3000
i to je nešto što neću nikada zaboraviti --
06:14
he just asked me, "You're the good pilot up there.
130
359000
3000
samo me pitao, "Ti si dobar pilot tamo gore.
06:17
What do you really want? You want to go very fast
131
362000
2000
Što zapravo želiš? Ići jako brzo
06:19
in the wrong direction, or slowly in the good direction?
132
364000
3000
u pogrešnom smjeru, ili sporije u dobrom smjeru?"
06:22
(Laughter)
133
367000
3000
(smijeh)
06:25
(Applause)
134
370000
2000
(pljesak)
06:27
And this is why you need weathermen.
135
372000
2000
I upravo zato vam treba prognostičar.
06:29
This is why you need people with long-term vision.
136
374000
3000
To je zašto su potrebni ljudi s dugoročnom vizijom.
06:32
And this is precisely what fails
137
377000
3000
I to je upravo ono što podbacuje
06:35
in the political visions we have now,
138
380000
3000
u političkim vizijama koje imamo danas,
06:38
in the political governments.
139
383000
2000
u političkim vladama.
06:40
We are burning, as you heard,
140
385000
2000
Mi sagorijevamo, kao što ste čuli,
06:42
so much energy,
141
387000
2000
toliko puno energije,
06:44
not understanding that such an unsustainable
142
389000
4000
nerazumijevajući da takav neodrživi
06:48
way of life cannot last for long.
143
393000
3000
način života ne može dugo trajati.
06:51
So, we went down actually.
144
396000
3000
I tako smo se ipak spustili.
06:54
We slowed down. And we went through moments of fears
145
399000
4000
Usporili smo. I prošli smo kroz trenutke straha,
06:58
because we had no idea how the little amount of gas
146
403000
2000
jer nismo imali pojma kako će nam tako mala količina plina
07:00
we had in the balloon
147
405000
2000
koju smo imali u balonu
07:02
could allow us to travel 45,000 kilometers.
148
407000
4000
omogućiti da putujemo 45,000 kilometara.
07:06
But we were expected to have doubts; we're expected to have fears.
149
411000
3000
Ali, očekivalo se da ćemo imati sumnje, očekivalo se da ćemo strahovati.
07:09
And actually this is where the adventure really started.
150
414000
3000
I zapravo, tu je pustolovina tek stvarno započela.
07:12
When we were flying over the Sahara and India
151
417000
2000
Kada smo letjeli iznad Sahare i Indije
07:14
it was nice holidays.
152
419000
2000
bili su to lijepi praznici.
07:16
We could land anytime and fly back home with an airplane.
153
421000
3000
Mogli smo bilo gdje sletjeti i odletjeti natrag kući sa avionom.
07:19
In the middle of the Pacific,
154
424000
2000
Na sredini Tihog oceana,
07:21
when you don't have the good winds, you cannot land,
155
426000
2000
kada nema dobih vjetrova ne možete sletjeti,
07:23
you cannot go back.
156
428000
2000
ne možete se vratiti.
07:25
That's a crisis.
157
430000
2000
To je kriza.
07:27
That's the moment when you have to wake up
158
432000
2000
To je trenutak kada se trebate probuditi
07:29
from the automatic way of thinking.
159
434000
2000
od automatiziranog načina razmišljanja.
07:31
That's the moment when you have to motivate
160
436000
2000
To je trenutak kada morate motivirati
07:33
your inner potential,
161
438000
2000
svoj unutarnji potencijal,
07:35
your creativity.
162
440000
2000
svoju kreativnost.
07:37
That's when you throw out all the ballast,
163
442000
2000
Tada odbacujete sav balast,
07:39
all the certainties,
164
444000
2000
sve sigurnosti,
07:41
in order to adapt to the new situation.
165
446000
2000
kako biste se prilagodili novoj situaciji.
07:43
And actually, we changed completely our flight plan.
166
448000
3000
I zapravo smo potpuno promijenili plan našeg leta.
07:46
We changed completely our strategy.
167
451000
2000
Potpuno smo promijenili našu strategiju.
07:48
And after 20 days we landed successfully in Egypt.
168
453000
3000
I nakon 20 dana smo se uspješno prizemljili u Egiptu.
07:51
But if I show you this picture
169
456000
2000
Ali ako vam pokažem ovu fotografiju
07:53
it's not to tell you how happy we were.
170
458000
3000
nije zato da vam kažem koliko smo sretni bili.
07:56
It's to show you how much gas was left
171
461000
2000
To je zato da vidite koliko je plina ostalo
07:58
in the last bottles.
172
463000
2000
u posljednjim bocama.
08:00
We took off with 3.7 tons of liquid propane.
173
465000
5000
Krenuli smo sa 3.7 tona tekućeg propana.
08:05
We landed with 40 kilos.
174
470000
4000
Sletjeli smo sa 40 kilograma.
08:09
When I saw that, I made a promise to myself.
175
474000
3000
Kada sam to vidio, obećao sam si.
08:12
I made a promise that the next time I would fly around the world,
176
477000
3000
Obećao sam da će moj slijedeći let oko svijeta
08:15
it would be with no fuel,
177
480000
3000
bit bez goriva,
08:18
independent from fossil energies,
178
483000
3000
neovisan o fosilnom gorivu,
08:21
in order to be safe,
179
486000
3000
iz razloga da budem siguran,
08:24
not to be threatened by the fuel gauge.
180
489000
2000
a ne pod prijetnjom mjerača za gorivo.
08:26
I had no idea how it was possible.
181
491000
3000
Nisam znao kako je to moguće.
08:29
I just thought it's a dream and I want to do it.
182
494000
4000
Samo sam pomislio da je to san i da to želim učiniti.
08:33
And when the capsule of my balloon was introduced
183
498000
3000
A kada je kapsula mog balona bila službeno uvrštena
08:36
officially in the Air and Space Museum in Washington,
184
501000
2000
u "Air and Space" muzeju u Washingtonu,
08:38
together with the airplane of Charles Lindbergh,
185
503000
2000
zajedno sa avionom Charlesa Lindbergha,
08:40
with Apollo 11, with the Wright Brothers' Flyer,
186
505000
2000
Apollom 11, letjelicom braće Wright,
08:42
with Chuck Yeager's 61,
187
507000
3000
Chuck Yeagerovim 61.
08:45
I had really a thought then.
188
510000
2000
Tada mi je pala na pamet misao.
08:47
I thought, well, the 20th century, that was brilliant.
189
512000
2000
Pomislio sam, dvadeseto stoljeće, koje je bilo sjajno
08:49
It allowed to do all those things there.
190
514000
3000
omogućilo je sve ove stvari.
08:52
But it will not be possible in the future any more.
191
517000
3000
Ali to više neće biti moguće u budućnosti.
08:55
It takes too much energy. It will cost too much.
192
520000
3000
Troši previše energije. Bit će preskupo.
08:58
It will be prohibited
193
523000
2000
Bit će zabranjeno
09:00
because we'll have to save our natural resources
194
525000
2000
jer ćemo morati sačuvati naše prirodne resurse
09:02
in a few decades from now.
195
527000
2000
u predstojećim desetljećima.
09:04
So how can we perpetuate
196
529000
2000
Kako možemo ovjekovječiti
09:06
this pioneering spirit
197
531000
3000
ovaj pionirski duh
09:09
with something that will be independent from fossil energy?
198
534000
4000
sa nečim što če biti neovisno o fosilnoj energiji?
09:13
And this is when the project Solar Impulse
199
538000
2000
I tada se projekt Solarni Impuls
09:15
really started to
200
540000
3000
zapravo počeo
09:18
turn in my head.
201
543000
2000
vrtjeti po mojoj glavi.
09:20
And I think it's a nice metaphor also
202
545000
2000
Mislim da je to također i lijepa metafora
09:22
for the 21st century.
203
547000
2000
za 21. stoljeće.
09:24
Pioneering spirit should continue, but on another level.
204
549000
4000
Pionirski duh trebao bi se nastaviti, ali na drugoj razini.
09:28
Not to conquer the planet or space,
205
553000
3000
Ne da bi se osvojio planet ili svemir,
09:31
not anymore, it has been done,
206
556000
2000
ne više, to je već učinjeno,
09:33
but rather to improve the quality of life.
207
558000
3000
nego rađe za unaprijeđenje kvalitete života.
09:36
How can we go through the ice of certainty
208
561000
3000
Kako da probijemo kroz led sigurnosti
09:39
in order to make the most incredible a possible thing?
209
564000
4000
kako bismo od nećeg nemogućeg napravili moguće?
09:43
What is today completely impossible --
210
568000
4000
Što je danas gotovo nemoguće -
09:47
get rid of our dependency on fossil energy.
211
572000
3000
rješiti se ovisnosti o fosilnoj energiji.
09:50
If you tell to people, we want to be independent
212
575000
2000
Ako kažete ljudima, da želimo biti neovisni
09:52
from fossil energy in our world,
213
577000
2000
od fosilne energije u našem svijetu,
09:54
people will laugh at you, except here,
214
579000
2000
ljudi će vam se smijati. Osim ovdje,
09:56
where crazy people are invited to speak.
215
581000
3000
gdje su luđaci pozvani da govore.
09:59
(Laughter)
216
584000
2000
(smijeh)
10:01
So, the idea is that if we fly around the world
217
586000
4000
Dakle, ideja je da ako obletimo svijet
10:05
in a solar powered airplane,
218
590000
2000
u avionu na solarni pogon,
10:07
using absolutely no fuel,
219
592000
2000
uopće ne koristeći gorivo,
10:09
nobody ever could say in the future
220
594000
3000
nitko neće moći reći u budućnosti
10:12
that it's impossible to do it
221
597000
2000
da je to nemoguće učiniti
10:14
for cars, for heating systems,
222
599000
2000
sa automobilima, sustavima grijanja,
10:16
for computers, and so on and so on.
223
601000
3000
računalima, itd.
10:19
Well, solar power airplanes are not new.
224
604000
3000
Dakle, avioni na solarni pogon nisu novost.
10:22
They have flown in the past, but without
225
607000
2000
Letjele su u prošlosti, ali bez
10:24
saving capabilities, without batteries.
226
609000
3000
sposobnosti pohranjivanja energije, bez baterija.
10:27
Which means that they have more proven
227
612000
2000
Što znači da su više pokazale
10:29
the limits of renewable energies
228
614000
2000
granice obnovljivih energija
10:31
than the potential of it.
229
616000
2000
nego njihov potencijala.
10:33
If we want to show the potential,
230
618000
2000
Ako želimo pokazati potencijal,
10:35
we have to fly day and night.
231
620000
3000
moramo letjeti dan i noć.
10:38
That means to load the batteries during the flight,
232
623000
3000
To znači puniti baterije tijekom dnevnog leta,
10:41
in order to spend the night on the batteries,
233
626000
3000
kako bi noć proveli leteći na beterije,
10:44
and fly the next day again.
234
629000
2000
i letjeli opet slijedeći dan.
10:46
It has been made, already, on remote controlled
235
631000
4000
To je već učinjeno na daljinski upravljanim
10:50
little airplane models, without pilots.
236
635000
3000
malim modelima aviona, bez pilota.
10:53
But it stays an anecdote
237
638000
2000
Ali to je ostala samo anegdota
10:55
because the public couldn't identify to it.
238
640000
3000
jer se javnost nije mogla s time identificirati.
10:58
I think you need a pilot in the plane
239
643000
2000
Smatram da je potreban pilot u letjelici
11:00
that can talk to the universities,
240
645000
2000
koji može govoriti na sveučilištima,
11:02
that can talk to students,
241
647000
2000
koji može govoriti studentima,
11:04
talk to politicians during the flight,
242
649000
2000
političarima tijekom leta
11:06
and really make it a human adventure.
243
651000
2000
i učiniti od toga pusolovinu čovječanstva.
11:08
For that, unfortunately,
244
653000
2000
Za to, nažalost,
11:10
four meters wingspan is not enough.
245
655000
3000
raspon krila od četiri metra nije dovoljan.
11:13
You need 64 meter wingspan.
246
658000
3000
Treba vam raspon krila od 64 metra.
11:16
64 meter wingspan to carry one pilot, the batteries,
247
661000
4000
64 metara raspona krila za nositi jednog pilota i baterije
11:20
flies slowly enough with the aerodynamic efficiency.
248
665000
4000
te letjeti dovoljno sporo uz aerodinamičnu efikasnost.
11:24
Why that? Because fuel is not easy to replace.
249
669000
4000
Kako to? Jer gorivo nije lako nadomjestiti.
11:28
That's for sure.
250
673000
2000
To je sigurno.
11:30
And with 200 square meters of solar power on our plane,
251
675000
5000
Sa 200 kvadratnih metara solarne snage na letjelici,
11:35
we can produce the same energy
252
680000
3000
možemo proizvesti isto energije
11:38
than 200 little lightbulbs.
253
683000
2000
kao 200 malih žarulja.
11:40
That means a Christmas tree, a big Christmas tree.
254
685000
4000
To znači božićno drvce, veliko božićno drvce.
11:44
So the question is, how can you carry a pilot around the world
255
689000
4000
Pitanje je, kako možete prenijeti pilota oko svijeta
11:48
with an airplane that uses
256
693000
2000
sa avionom koji koristi
11:50
the same amount of energy as a big Christmas tree?
257
695000
3000
istu količinu energije kao veliko božićno drvce?
11:53
People will tell you it's impossible,
258
698000
2000
Ljudi će vam reći da je to nemoguće,
11:55
and that's exactly why we try to do it.
259
700000
3000
i to je upravo zašto mi to pokušavamo napraviti.
11:58
We launched the project with my colleague Andre Borschberg
260
703000
3000
Pokrenuli smo projekt sa mojim kolegom Andre Borchbergom
12:01
six years ago.
261
706000
2000
prije šest godina.
12:03
We have now 70 people in the team working on it.
262
708000
3000
Sada imamo 70 ljudi u timu koji na tome radi.
12:06
We have gone through the stages of simulation, design,
263
711000
4000
Prošli smo kroz faze simulacije, dizajna,
12:10
computing, preparing the construction
264
715000
3000
računanja, pripreme za izradu
12:13
of the first prototype.
265
718000
2000
prvog prototipa.
12:15
That has been achieved after two years of work.
266
720000
3000
To je postignuto nakon dvije godine rada.
12:18
Cockpit, propeller, engine.
267
723000
2000
Pilotska kabina, propeler, motor.
12:20
Just the fuselage here, it's so light.
268
725000
2000
Samo trup aviona toliko je lagan.
12:22
It's not designed by an artist, but it could be.
269
727000
3000
Nije ga dizajnirao umjetnik, ali kao da jest.
12:25
50 kilos for the entire fuselage.
270
730000
2000
50 kilograma za cijeli trup.
12:27
Couple of kilos more for the wing spars.
271
732000
4000
Nekoliko dodatnih kilograma za nosače krila.
12:31
This is the complete structure of the airplane.
272
736000
3000
Ovo je kompletna struktura aviona.
12:34
And one month ago we have unveiled it.
273
739000
3000
I prije mjesec dana otkrili smo ju javnosti.
12:37
You cannot imagine how it is for a team
274
742000
2000
Ne možete zamisliti kako je timu
12:39
who has been working six years on it
275
744000
2000
koji je radio 6 godina na tome
12:41
to show that it's not only a dream and a vision,
276
746000
3000
pokazati da to nije samo san i vizija,
12:44
it's a real airplane.
277
749000
2000
nego pravi avion.
12:46
A real airplane that we could finally present.
278
751000
3000
Pravi avion koji smo napokon mogli prezentirati.
12:49
And what's the goal now?
279
754000
2000
I koji je sada cilj?
12:51
The goal is to take off,
280
756000
4000
Cilj je poletjeti
12:55
end of this year for the first test,
281
760000
2000
krajem ove godine za prvi test,
12:57
but mainly next year, spring or summer,
282
762000
4000
ali uglavnom iduće godine, u proljeće ili ljeto,
13:01
take off, on our own power,
283
766000
2000
poletjeti na našu vlastitu energiju,
13:03
without additional help, without being towed,
284
768000
3000
bez dodatne pomoći, bez vuče,
13:06
climb to 9,000 meters altitude.
285
771000
3000
popeti se na 9000 metara visine.
13:09
The same time we load the batteries,
286
774000
2000
U isto vrijeme kada punimo baterije
13:11
we run the engines, and when we get at the maximum height,
287
776000
5000
pokrećemo motore, a kada se popnemo na maksimalnu visinu,
13:16
we arrive at the beginning of the night.
288
781000
2000
stižemo do početka noći.
13:18
And there, there will be just one goal, just one:
289
783000
5000
I tamo će postojati samo jedan cilj. Samo jedan.
13:23
reach the next sunrise before the batteries are empty.
290
788000
3000
Izgurati do zore prije nego se baterije isprazne.
13:26
(Laughter)
291
791000
3000
(smijeh)
13:29
And this is exactly the symbol of our world.
292
794000
3000
A to je upravo simbol našeg svijeta,
13:32
If our airplane is too heavy,
293
797000
2000
ako je naš avion pretežak,
13:34
if the pilot wastes energy,
294
799000
2000
ako pilot uzalud troši energiju,
13:36
we'll never make it through the night.
295
801000
2000
nećemo nikada izdržati kroz noć.
13:38
And in our world, if we keep on spoiling,
296
803000
3000
I u našem svijetu, ako nastavimo upropaštavati,
13:41
wasting our energy resources,
297
806000
2000
tratiti uzalud energiju i resurse,
13:43
if we keep on building things that consume so much energy
298
808000
3000
ako nastavimo graditi stvari koje troše toliko puno energije
13:46
that most of the companies now go bankrupt,
299
811000
5000
zbog čega većina kompanija danas bankrotira,
13:51
it's clear that we'll never give the planet to the next generation
300
816000
2000
jasno je da nikada nećemo predati planet slijedećoj generaciji
13:53
without a major problem.
301
818000
2000
bez velikog problema.
13:55
So, you see that this airplane is more a symbol.
302
820000
3000
Dakle, vidite da je ovaj avion više simbol.
13:58
I don't think it will transport 200 people
303
823000
2000
Ne mislim da će prevoziti 200 ljudi
14:00
in the next years.
304
825000
2000
u sljedećim godinama.
14:02
But when Lindbergh crossed the Atlantic,
305
827000
2000
Ali kada je Lindbergh prešao Atlantik
14:04
the payload was also just sufficient
306
829000
2000
nosivost je bila dovoljna
14:06
for one person and some fuel.
307
831000
4000
za jednu osobu i malo goriva.
14:10
And 20 years later there were 200 people
308
835000
2000
A 20 godina kasnije bilo je 200 ljudi
14:12
in every airplane crossing the Atlantic.
309
837000
2000
u svakom avionu koji prelazi Atlantik.
14:14
So, we have to start,
310
839000
2000
Stoga, mi moramo početi,
14:16
and show the example.
311
841000
2000
i dati primjer.
14:18
A little bit like on this picture here.
312
843000
2000
Pomalo kao i na ovoj slici ovdje.
14:20
This is a painting from Magritte,
313
845000
2000
Ovo je slika od Magritte,
14:22
in the museum in Holland that I love so much.
314
847000
3000
u muzeju u Nizozemskoj, koju jako volim.
14:25
It's a pipe, and it's written, "This is not a pipe."
315
850000
3000
To je lula, a piše, "Ovo nije lula".
14:28
This is not an airplane.
316
853000
3000
Ovo nije avion.
14:31
This is a symbol of what we can achieve
317
856000
3000
Ovo je simbol onoga što možemo postići
14:34
when we believe in the impossible,
318
859000
2000
kada vjerujemo u nemoguće,
14:36
when we have a team,
319
861000
2000
kada imamo tim,
14:38
when we have pioneering spirit,
320
863000
3000
kada imamo pionirski duh,
14:41
and especially when we understand
321
866000
2000
i pogotovo kada razumijemo
14:43
that all the certainties we have
322
868000
2000
da sve sigurnosti koje imamo
14:45
should be thrown overboard.
323
870000
3000
moraju bit odbačene.
14:48
What pleases me very much
324
873000
2000
Ono što me posebno raduje
14:50
is that in the beginning I thought that we would have to fly
325
875000
2000
je da sam u početku mislio da ćemo morati letjeti
14:52
around the world with no fuel
326
877000
3000
oko svijeta bez goriva
14:55
in order to have our message been understood.
327
880000
3000
kako bi naša poruka bila shvaćena.
14:58
And more and more, we're invited around the world with Andre
328
883000
3000
Sve više i više, pozivaju nas po svijetu sa Andreom
15:01
to talk about that project, to talk about the symbol of it,
329
886000
3000
da govorimo o projektu i njegovoj simboličnosti.
15:04
invited by politicians, invited in energy forums,
330
889000
3000
Pozivaju nas političari i enegetski forumi,
15:07
in order to show that it's not anymore
331
892000
3000
kako bi pokazali da više nije
15:10
completely stupid
332
895000
2000
potpuno glupo
15:12
to think about getting rid of the dependency
333
897000
2000
razmišljati o oslobađanju od ovisnosti
15:14
on fossil energies.
334
899000
2000
o fosilnim energijama.
15:16
So, through speeches like this one today,
335
901000
3000
Dakle, kroz govore kao što je ovaj danas,
15:19
through interviews, through meetings,
336
904000
3000
kroz intervjue, kroz sastanke,
15:22
our goal is to get as many people possible on the team.
337
907000
5000
naš je cilj da pridobijemo što više ljudi u naš tim.
15:27
The success will not come
338
912000
2000
Uspjeh neće doći,
15:29
if we "just," quote, unquote,
339
914000
2000
ako "samo"
15:31
fly around the world in a solar-powered airplane.
340
916000
2000
letimo oko svijeta u avionu na solarni pogon.
15:33
No, the success will come
341
918000
3000
Ne, uspjeh će doći
15:36
if enough people are motivated
342
921000
2000
ako je dovoljno ljudi motivirano
15:38
to do exactly the same in their daily life,
343
923000
3000
da čine isto to u svom svakodnevnom životu,
15:41
save energy, go to renewables.
344
926000
3000
štede energiju, koriste obnovljive izvore.
15:44
And this is possible. You know, with the technologies we have today,
345
929000
3000
A to je moguće. Znate, sa tehnologijama koje imamo danas
15:47
we can save between 30 and 50 percent
346
932000
3000
možemo uštedjeti između 30 i 50 posto
15:50
of the energy of a country in Europe,
347
935000
4000
energije jedne europske zemlje
15:54
and we can solve half of the rest with renewables.
348
939000
3000
i možemo polovicu ostatka rješiti sa obnovljivim izvorima.
15:57
It leaves 25 or 30 percent for
349
942000
3000
Ostaje 25 ili 30 posto za
16:00
oil, gas, coal, nuclear, or whatever.
350
945000
4000
naftu, plin, ugljen, nuklearnu ili sl.
16:04
This is acceptable.
351
949000
2000
To je prihvatljivo.
16:06
This is why all the people who believe
352
951000
4000
Stoga su svi ljudi koji vjeruju
16:10
in this type of spirit
353
955000
2000
u ovaj duh
16:12
are welcome to be on that team.
354
957000
2000
dobrodošli da budu u tom timu.
16:14
You can just go on SolarImpulse.com, subscribe
355
959000
3000
Možete otići na solarimpulse.com i upisati se
16:17
to just be informed of what we're doing.
356
962000
2000
da budete samo informirani o onome što radimo.
16:19
But much more, to get advices,
357
964000
2000
Ali i mnogo više. Da dobijete savjete,
16:21
to give your comments, to spread the word
358
966000
2000
da komentirate, širite riječ,
16:23
that if it's possible in the air,
359
968000
3000
da ako je to moguće u zraku
16:26
of course it's possible in the ground.
360
971000
3000
sigurno je moguće i na tlu.
16:29
And each time we have some ice in the future,
361
974000
4000
I svaki puta kada ćemo imati leda u budućnosti,
16:33
we have to know that life will be great,
362
978000
3000
moramo znati da će život biti sjajan,
16:36
and the success will be brilliant
363
981000
3000
i da će upjeh biti briljantan
16:39
if we dare to overcome our fear of the ice,
364
984000
3000
ako se usudimo prebroditi strah od leda,
16:42
to go through the obstacle,
365
987000
2000
proći kroz prepreku,
16:44
to go through the problem, in order to see what there is on the other side.
366
989000
4000
proći kroz problem, da bi vidjeli što je sa druge strane.
16:48
So, you see, this is what we're doing on our side.
367
993000
4000
Vidite, to je ono što mi radimo sa naše strane.
16:52
Everyone has his goal, has his dreams,
368
997000
3000
Svatko ima svoj cilj, svoje snove,
16:55
has his visions.
369
1000000
3000
svoje vizije.
16:58
The question I leave you with now
370
1003000
2000
Pitanje s kojim vas ostavljam
17:00
is which is the ballast
371
1005000
2000
je koji je balast
17:02
you would like to throw overboard?
372
1007000
4000
koji biste vi odbacili?
17:06
Which will be the altitude at which
373
1011000
2000
Koja će biti visina kojom
17:08
you would like to fly in your life,
374
1013000
3000
biste željeli letjeti u svom životu,
17:11
to get to the success that you wish to have,
375
1016000
3000
da biste dosegli uspjeh koji želite,
17:14
to get to the point that really belongs to you,
376
1019000
4000
da biste dosegli točku koja vam zaista pripada,
17:18
with the potential you have,
377
1023000
2000
sa potencijalom koj imate
17:20
and the one you can really fulfill?
378
1025000
3000
i onim koji možete doista ostvariti?
17:23
Because the most renewable energy we have
379
1028000
3000
Jer najbolje obnovljivi izvor energije koji imamo
17:26
is our own potential, and our own passion.
380
1031000
3000
je naš vlastiti potencijal, i naša strast.
17:29
So, let's go for it, and I wish you an excellent adventure
381
1034000
2000
Stoga, krenimo i želim vam sjajnu pustolovinu
17:31
in the wings of the future. Thank you.
382
1036000
2000
na krilima budućnosti. Hvala vam.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Bertrand Piccard - Solar adventurerBertrand Piccard circumnavigated the Earth in a hot-air balloon. Now he wants to circle it in an airplane powered only by solar energy.
Why you should listen
Bertrand Piccard was born in a family of firsts. His father, Jacques, together with Dan Walsh of the US, was the first man to reach the deepest point of the world's oceans, the Mariana Trench, in 1960. Almost 30 years earlier, his grandfather, Auguste, first ballooned into the stratosphere. While they went up and down, Bertrand went horizontal and in 1999, together with Brian Jones of Britain, completed the first-ever nonstop balloon circumnavigation of the globe, flying more than 45,000 km in 20 days.
Now, in a hangar near Zurich, a team of scientists and engineers around Piccard and co-pilot André Borschberg is building Solar Impulse, an unconventional aircraft designed to circumnavigate the Earth powered by solar energy, flying day and night (yes, when the Sun is "off"). The prototype has the weight of a car but the wingspan of an Airbus. Solar Impulse has successfully flown from Spain to Morocco and across the United States. The next trip: circumnavigation.
Piccard is also the founder of Winds of Hope, an organization to combat neglected diseases in children, and a Goodwill Ambassador to the United Nations Population Fund.
