在麻省理工學院的媒體實驗室，丹妮爾伍德是研究團體「Space Enabled」的領導人。她致力於破除障礙，不讓太空探索的益處只限制讓少數人、有錢人或菁英享受。她點出有六種技術是為了太空探索而發展的，且都能對全世界的永續發展有所貢獻──從提供資訊給救援組織的觀測衛星，到針對微重力做的醫學研究可以用來改善地球上的健康照護。伍德說：「對於永續發展而言，太空真的很有用，能讓所有人都獲益。」

那是佛羅里達的一個炎熱夏季夜晚，
00:23
and just a few miles from the ocean.

海洋就在幾英哩之外。
00:26
I was waiting for a miracle to happen.

00:35
at NASA's Kennedy Space Center,

在太空總署的甘迺迪太空中心工作，
00:37
and the miracle I was waiting for
7

而我在等待的奇蹟，
00:40
was the launch
of the Columbia Space Shuttle

太空梭載著錢卓拉Ｘ射線天文台，
00:47
a telescope that would allow scientists
to peer into the edge of black holes.

這個天文台是個望遠鏡，

00:54
The entire sky filled with light.

整個天空被光照亮。
00:58
And it was as if it was daytime
in the middle of the night.

12
46998
3272
好像半夜裡的白天。
01:03
Soon, we could feel the rumble
of the engines vibrating in our chests.

13
51149

很快地，我們的胸口就能夠
感受到隆隆作響的引擎在震動。

01:08
And it wasn't a miracle;
14
56003
1581
它並不是個奇蹟；
01:10
it was the combined effort
of a team of thousands of people

15
58316

它是一個千人團隊共同的努力，

1291
他們同心協力，
01:15
to make was seemed impossible a reality.
17
63672
3284
讓似乎不可能辦到的夢想得以實現。
01:19
And I wanted to join that team.
18
67991
3729
而我想要加入那個團隊。
01:24
So I decided to apply to a university
where I could study aerospace engineering.
where I could study aerospace engineering.
19
72872
4295
所以我決定要申請進入一間
有航太工程的大學就讀。
有航太工程的大學就讀。
01:29
And the following year,
20
77644

隔年，
01:31
I started at MIT
in my engineering training

01:33
and joined a student project

並加入了一個學生專案計畫，
打造太空機器人。

01:37
And everything was going as I planned,
23
85146
1879
一切都和我規劃的一樣，
01:39
except I was confused
about something important.

24

除了，我對於一件
重要的事感到很困惑。

01:45
Now, my confusion arose

25
93768

我的困惑是在暑假出現的。
01:49
I traveled to a school in Kenya,
26
97474
2768
我旅行到肯亞的一間學校，
01:52
and there I volunteered
with girls ages five to 17,
with girls ages five to 17,
27
100915
4644
我在那裡當志工，
幫助 5~17 歲的女孩，
幫助 5~17 歲的女孩，
01:57
giving them lessons in English
and math and science.
and math and science.
28
105583
4685
教她們英文、數學，以及科學。
02:03
And they taught me songs in Swahili.
29
111143
2758
她們則教我唱斯華西里歌曲。
02:07
And mostly, I just spent time
getting to know the girls,
getting to know the girls,
30
115290
3554
通常，我的時間是花在
認識那些女孩上，
認識那些女孩上，
02:10
enjoying their presence.
31
118868
1257
享受她們的在場。
02:12
And I saw that these girls
and the leaders in their community,
and the leaders in their community,
32
120754
4094
我看到，這些女孩以及
她們社區中的領導人，
她們社區中的領導人，
02:16
they were overcoming important barriers
33
124872
2906
他們在克服重要的障礙，
02:19
to allow these girls to have
the best possible chances in life.
the best possible chances in life.
34
127802
3837
讓這些女孩在她們的人生中
能夠有最好的機會。
能夠有最好的機會。
02:24
And I wanted to join that team.
35
132556
3811
而我想要加入那個團隊。
02:28
I wanted to be part of a team
that would help break down barriers

36
136931
3057
我想要加入的團隊，
是能夠協助破除障礙

37
140012
2569
並讓世界各地女孩的生活
能有所改善的團隊。
能有所改善的團隊。
02:34
But I was worried that studying
aerospace engineering
aerospace engineering
38
142605
3068
但我擔心，研讀航太工程
02:37
wasn't the most useful.
39
145697
1481
並不是最有用的。
02:39
I was worried this team in Kenya
couldn't use the technology
couldn't use the technology
40
147202
3160
我擔心在肯亞的這個團隊無法使用
02:42
I was learning about space.
41
150386
1601
我正在學的這種太空科技。
02:45
But thankfully, I still learned
that I was wrong.
that I was wrong.
42
153305
3144
但，謝天謝地，我發現我是錯的。
02:49
I came back and interned at NASA again,
43
157457
2359
我回來並再次到太空總署實習，
02:51
and this time,
44
159840
1158
這一次，
02:53
a mentor taught me
45
161022
1825
一位導師教我，
02:54
that countries like Kenya had been using
space technology for decades
space technology for decades
46
162871
6175
像肯亞這樣的國家，
數十年來都在使用太空科技，
數十年來都在使用太空科技，
03:01
to improve the lives
in their own countries.
in their own countries.
47
169070
2561
用來改善它們國內人民的生活。
03:03
And then I knew that I could have
a career in space
a career in space
48
171655
3530
接著，我知道我的職涯
可以同時在太空領域，
可以同時在太空領域，
03:07
and in development.
49
175209
1574
也在發展領域。
03:09
This idea is not new.
50
177859
1358
這個想法不是新的。
03:11
In fact, in 1967, the nations
of the world came together
of the world came together
51
179825
4200
事實上，1967 年，
世界各國聚集在一起，
世界各國聚集在一起，
03:16
to write the Outer Space Treaty.
52
184049
2743
訂下了「外太空條約」。
03:19
This treaty made a bold statement,
53
187607
2662
這條約當中有段大膽的陳述：
03:22
saying, "The exploration
and use of outer space
and use of outer space
54
190293
4062
「外太空的探索與使用
03:26
should be carried on
for the benefit of all peoples,

55
194379
3576
應該要為了人民的利益來進行，
03:30
irrespective of their level
of economic or scientific development."

56
198573
4894
不論他們的的經濟或
科學發展程度如何。」
科學發展程度如何。」
03:37
We have not truly lived up to this ideal,
57
205089
2357
我們尚未真正實踐這項理念，
03:39
although people have worked
for decades to make this a reality.
for decades to make this a reality.
58
207470
3219
不過數十年來人們
一直努力想讓它成真。

Forces such as colonialism and racism
59
211826
3506
有些力量，像是殖民主義、種族主義，
03:47
and gender inequality
60
215880
1737
以及性別不平等，
03:50
have actually excluded many people
from the benefits of space
from the benefits of space
61
218260
3525
其實已經將很多人排除，
無法享受太空的益處了，
無法享受太空的益處了，
03:54
and caused us to believe
that space is for the few

62
222751

並讓我們相信，
太空是屬於少數人的，

03:58
or the rich or elite.
63
226316
2226
或屬於有錢人或菁英的。
04:01
But we cannot afford this attitude,
64
229731
2454
但我們不能有這種態度，
04:04
because the world is engaged
in a vital mission

一項極重要的任務，

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Danielle Wood - Space engineer and development scholarDanielle Wood designs satellites and space technology applications that contribute to sustainable development.
Why you should listen
Dr. Danielle Wood has published extensive, novel research findings on emerging space activity in Africa, Latin America and South East Asia; advised senior leaders in the US government on technology policy and led teams of engineers and scientists to create satellite systems that contribute to public safety. As of January 2018, Dr. Wood directs the Space Enabled Research Group and serves as an Assistant Professor at the Media Lab in the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA. The Mission of the Space Enabled research group is to advance justice in earth's complex systems using designs enabled by space. At Space Enabled, Wood designs innovative systems that harness space technology that support work toward the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
Wood's research also develops systems analysis tools to improve decision making during the design of complex systems. Most recently, she worked as the Applied Sciences Manager within the Earth Science Division of Goddard Space Flight Center. Previously, she served as Special Assistant and Advisor to the Deputy Administrator at NASA Headquarters in Washington, DC. Prior to working at NASA, Wood held positions at the Aerospace Corporation, Johns Hopkins University and the United Nations Office of Outer Space Affairs. She studied at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where she earned a PhD in engineering systems, SM in aeronautics and astronautics, SM in technology policy and SB in aerospace engineering.
