1
00:00:20,828 --> 00:00:25,983
If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch

2
00:00:25,983 --> 00:00:31,811
You must first invent the universe

3
00:00:31,811 --> 00:00:36,664
Space is filled with a network of wormholes

4
00:00:36,664 --> 00:00:39,126
You might emerge somewhere else in space

5
00:00:39,126 --> 00:00:41,912
Some when-else in time

6
00:00:41,912 --> 00:00:44,211
The sky calls to us

7
00:00:44,211 --> 00:00:46,510
If we do not destroy ourselves

8
00:00:46,510 --> 00:00:52,152
We will one day venture to the stars

9
00:00:52,152 --> 00:00:54,265
A still more glorious dawn awaits

10
00:00:54,265 --> 00:00:57,028
Not a sunrise, but a galaxy rise

11
00:00:57,028 --> 00:01:01,115
A morning filled with 400 billion suns

12
00:01:01,115 --> 00:01:02,973
The rising of the milky way

13
00:01:02,973 --> 00:01:06,479
The Cosmos is full beyond measure of elegant truths

14
00:01:06,479 --> 00:01:09,915
Of exquisite interrelationships

15
00:01:09,915 --> 00:01:12,702
Of the awesome machinery of nature

16
00:01:12,702 --> 00:01:15,163
I believe our future depends powerfully

17
00:01:15,163 --> 00:01:17,462
On how well we understand this cosmos

18
00:01:17,462 --> 00:01:21,386
In which we float like a mote of dust

19
00:01:21,386 --> 00:01:23,081
In the morning sky

20
00:01:23,081 --> 00:01:26,471
But the brain does much more than just recollect

21
00:01:26,471 --> 00:01:30,465
It inter-compares, it synthesizes, it analyzes

22
00:01:30,465 --> 00:01:32,508
it generates abstractions

23
00:01:32,508 --> 00:01:37,315
The simplest thought like the concept of the number one

24
00:01:37,315 --> 00:01:38,847
Has an elaborate logical underpinning

25
00:01:38,847 --> 00:01:40,566
The brain has its own language

26
00:01:40,566 --> 00:01:43,584
For testing the structure and consistency of the world

27
00:02:19,015 --> 00:02:22,013
For thousands of years

28
00:02:22,013 --> 00:02:24,707
People have wondered about the universe

29
00:02:24,707 --> 00:02:26,982
Did it stretch out forever

30
00:02:26,982 --> 00:02:30,024
Or was there a limit

31
00:02:30,024 --> 00:02:32,927
From the big bang to black holes

32
00:02:32,927 --> 00:02:35,690
From dark matter to a possible big crunch

33
00:02:35,690 --> 00:02:37,640
Our image of the universe today

34
00:02:37,640 --> 00:02:40,357
Is full of strange sounding ideas

35
00:02:40,357 --> 00:02:43,004
How lucky we are to live in this time

36
00:02:43,004 --> 00:02:45,814
The first moment in human history

37
00:02:45,814 --> 00:02:51,015
When we are in fact visiting other worlds

38
00:03:17,446 --> 00:03:21,340
The surface of the earth is the shore of the cosmic ocean

39
00:03:21,340 --> 00:03:24,870
Recently we've waded a little way out

40
00:03:24,870 --> 00:03:27,981
And the water seems inviting
