Pandoraviruses do share one thing in common with all life on Earth: DNA.
那些支持生源说的人说 这支持了他们假说的一个关键部分
Those who endorse panspermia say that this supports a key part of their hypothesis.
也就是说 宇宙中所有的生命都是基于DNA的
Namely, that all life in the universe is based on DNA,
因此 地球上的生命与所有宇宙间的生命密切相关
and therefore, that life on Earth is closely related to life everywhere.
如果DNA存在于太空中 而我们是DNA的产物 那么银河系中其他物种也是同样DNA的产物
If DNA is present throughout space and we are a product of that DNA and the other species elsewhere in the galaxy are also the result of the same DNA,
很明显 我们之间存在着某种共生关系
then very clearly there's some kind of symbiotic relationship between all of us.
如果宇宙中所有的生命都是基于DNA的
NARRATOR: If all life in the universe is based on DNA,
那么外星人就和人类有密切的关系
then aliens would be closely related to humans.
这就是为什么如此多的被绑♥架♥者报告说 外星人绑♥架♥者对人类遗传物质非常感兴趣?
Is this why so many abductees report that their alien abductors are so interested in human genetic material?
许多被绑♥架♥者谈到他们是如何被带上不明飞行物并接受医学实验的
Many abductees have talked about how they were taken on board UFOs and subjected to medical experimentation.
目击者说血液、精♥子♥、卵子都从他们的身体中取出
Witnesses talk about blood, sperm, eggs being removed from their bodies.
伊姆布罗格尼:很有可能外星智慧生物正在修补我们的DNA 试图使我们与他们更兼容
IMBROGNO: It's very possible that an alien intelligence is tinkering with our DNA to try to make us more compatible to them.
也许有一天 这两个物种会联合起来
And that perhaps one day, the two species will unite.
他们也不再是我们的神
And they will no longer be our gods,
我们将与他们平起平坐
but we will be their equals.
巴拉:如果外星人利用这些微生物使我们更像他们
BARA: If aliens are using these microbes to make us more like them,
那么很明显 我们将开始显示出这种遗传物理进化的迹象
then obviously we're gonna start to show signs of that sort of genetic physical evolution.
换句话说 我们的睾丸激素水平会下降
In other words, our testosterone levels should go down,
我们会变得更加脆弱
we're going to become more frail,
我们可能会变得更加雌雄同体
we're probably going to become more androgynous.
我们的智力会被阻断
Our intelligence is gonna be spiked.
有人指出这些变化已经发生了
NARRATOR: Some point out that these changes are happening already.
伯恩斯:现在人类的进化是有趋势的
BIRNES: There are trends in the evolution of human beings right now.
精♥子♥数量正在下降
Sperm counts are going down.
顺便说一下 精♥子♥数量正在下降啊
Sperm counts are going down, by the way,
世界人口正在突破80亿甚至100亿
as the world's population is crashing through eight billion to ten billion.
巴拉:也许我们会变得更像外星人
BARA: Maybe we'll become more like the aliens,
也许这意味着我们实际上在基因层面与它们更兼容
and perhaps that means that we're actually more compatible with them genetically,
如果这条路是规划好的
if that path is the one that's laid out.
所以 你可以把高等智力的发展看作
So, you could actually look at the development of higher intelligence as, again,
像一个基因特洛伊木马 最终引导我们到达一个点
kind of a genetic Trojan horse that eventually leads us to a point
让我们更容易与外来物种进行基因杂交
where it's far easier for us to be crossed genetically with alien species.
人类会成为外星人实施的一项巧妙的生物工程项目的主体吗?
NARRATOR: Could human beings be the subjects of an ingenious bioengineering project conducted by extraterrestrials?
古代宇航员理论家认为 答案不仅是肯定的
Ancient astronaut theorists believe that not only is the answer yes,
而且这个过程 虽然有时很痛苦
but that this process, while at times painful,
但最终将造福人类
will ultimately benefit humanity.
但他们也警告说 外星人可能有另一个议程
But they also warn that the extraterrestrials may have another agenda,
这对我们没有好处 但对他们有好处
one that doesn't benefit us, but them.
2019年6月6日 纽约 罗切斯特
科学杂♥志♥《当代生物学》报道 罗切斯特大学的生物学家已经解开了豌豆蚜虫之谜
NARRATOR: The scientific journal Current Biology reports that biologists at the University of Rochester have solved the mystery of the pea aphid,
一种微小的吸血昆虫 通常没有翅膀 但当它需要寻找新的植物来殖民时 就会周期性地长出翅膀
a tiny sap-sucking insect that is normally wingless but periodically develops wings when it needs to seek out new plants to colonize.
他们发现 形成翅膀开关的基因属于一种病毒
What they found is that the genes that form the on/off switch for wings belong to a virus,
它的基因组已经完全融入了宿主的基因组
the genome of which has become fully incorporated into that of its host.
研究人员认为 虽然这对蚜虫是有益的
The researchers suggest that while this is beneficial to the aphid,
但实际上是病毒诱导了翅膀的发育 以便它在周围传播
it is actually the virus that induces wing development in order to spread itself around.
同样 在2019年也发现许多黄蜂携带一种可以延长寿命的病毒
NARRATOR: Similarly, it was also found in 2019 that many wasps carry a virus that increases their longevity,
它能使病毒能够进一步传播
enabling the virus to be spread further.
费雪:病毒跨越了我们对生物和非生物的概念
FISHER: Viruses sort of straddle our concepts of living or nonliving
因为它们需要一个寄主来繁殖自己 然后开始执行各种生命功能
because they require a host in order to reproduce themselves and also to carry out any life function.
所以他们不能代谢或利用自己的能量
So they can't metabolize or utilize their own energy.
它们必须依靠宿主细胞来完成这一过程并复♥制♥自己
They have to rely on a host cell to do that and to make copies of themselves as well.
病毒本身是惰性的
NARRATOR: On its own, a virus is inert.
它只有在接触到寄主后才会有生命并开始繁殖
It only comes to life and is able to reproduce once it comes in contact with a host.
就像病毒本身 如果外星人正在改变人类 也许是为了进一步发展他们自己的物种?
Like the viruses themselves, if extraterrestrials are altering humans, is it perhaps to further their own species?
他们正在慢慢地把我们变成他们的新化身
Are they slowly transforming us into new incarnations of themselves,
也许不是为了推动人类 而是为了自己的同类?
not to advance humankind, but their own kind?
也许
Perhaps.
但是一些古代宇航员理论家认为 就像蚜虫和黄蜂一样
But some ancient astronaut theorists suggest that, as is the case with the aphid and also the wasp,
这个过程可能是互利的
this process might be mutually beneficial.
有一种说法是这些外星访客
POPE: One theory is that these extraterrestrial visitors,
他们是一个垂死的种族
they are a dying race,
他们正在向人类注入新的基因物质 这将有助于拯救他们
and that they are injecting new genetic material which will help save them.
另一个相关的理论是……拿人类的DNA来说
Another related theory is... Let's take human DNA,
我们可以用外星人的DNA 创造出更好的东西
let's take alien DNA, and let's create something even better.
索卡罗斯:我认为人类处在……一个永恒的实验中
TSOUKALOS: I think that humankind has been part of a... eternal experiment,
很久很久以前就开始了
something that's begun a long, long time ago,
我认为这是一个持续的过程
and I think that this is an ongoing process.
现在 我发现的变化是
Now, figuring out what the change is,
你的猜测和我的一样 都是好的结果
is... your guess is as good as mine.
科林斯:如果我们发现病毒确实来自太空
COLLINS: If we find that viruses do come from space,
那么我们就知道 因为病毒和进化之间存在某种关系
then we know that because there is a relationship between viruses and evolution,
所以这一定是一种普遍现象
that this is something that must be universal.
它把我们和宇宙中所有其他可能的生命来源联♥系♥起来
It's something that connects us with every other possible life source everywhere out there in the universe.
有没有可能我们星球上的疾病史不仅仅是一个人类的故事
NARRATOR: Is it possible that the history of disease on our planet is not only a human story,
而且是外星人的故事呢?
but an extraterrestrial one?
就古代宇航员理论家而言
As far as ancient astronaut theorists are concerned,
答案是一个意味深长的“是”
the answer is a profound "yes."
如果这种观点是正确的
And if such a notion is true,
他们坚持认为 这些所谓的“外来感染”并不是要毁灭我们
they insist that these so-called "alien infections" are not meant to destroy us,
而像是在打一种预防针
but to serve as a kind of inoculation, a preparation for the day
为人类与外星人面对面的那一天做准备
when mankind comes face-to-face with its alien relatives.
