Let's take a snapshot at aviation. And there was a wonderful little short four-year time period when marvelous things happened. 让我们迅速回览一下航空工业。曾有四年短暂的美好时期，那时发生了许多奇迹。 It started in 1908, when the Wright brothers flew in Paris, and everybody said, "Ooh, hey, I can do that." 那段时期开始于1908年，当怀特兄弟在巴黎飞行，每个人都说...
I want to start off by saying, Houston, we have a problem. We're entering a second generation of no progress in terms of human flight in space. 我想从这里开始，休斯顿，我们有个问题。我们已经有二十年没有进展了，在人类太空飞行方面。 In fact, we've regressed. We stand a very big chance of losing our ability to inspire our youth to go out and continue this very important...
Talk very briefly about innovation cycles, things that grow, have a lot of activity; they die out when they're replaced by something else. 简短地谈一下发明创造的周期，周期发展时会衍生许多活动，当这些活动被其他活动取代，此周期就灭亡了。 These things tend to happen every 25 years. 40 years long, with an overlap.

The military fighters had a — highest-performance military airplane was the SR71. 这里有两个例子。军事战斗机有一架最高性能的空军飞机是SR71。 It went a whole life cycle, got too rusty to fly, and ...
