Why should mankind explore space? 人类为何要探索太空呢？Why should money, time and effort be spent exploring and researching something with so few apparent benefits? 为什么时间、金钱、和精力会被花在探索一些没有显著的好处的事情上呢？Why should resources be spent on space rather than on conditions and people on Earth? These are questions that, understandably, are very often asked．为何资源会被花在太空而不是地球山的人与环境上呢？，这些不可理喻的为题常常被人问及。

Perhaps the best answer lies in our genetic makeup（基因构成）as human beings．也许最好的答案隐藏在我们骨子里。What drove our ancestors to move from the trees into the plains, and on into all possible areas and environments? 是什么驱使我们的先主从树上移动到地上，到所有可能的地域与环境的呢？The wider the spread of a species, the better its chance of survival．越是广泛分布的种族，越有机会幸存下来。Perhaps the best reason for exploring space is this genetic tendency to expand wherever possible．或许人们探索宇宙最好的理由就是基因里驱使着向任何可能的地方扩展。

Nearly every successful civilization has explored, because by doing so, any dangers in surrounding areas can be identified （鉴定、辨别）and prepared for．几乎每一个文化中都会因探寻和鉴定周边环境中的任何威并为之做准备而成功。Without knowledge, we may be completely destroyed by the danger．With knowledge, we can lessen its effects．没有知识，我们可能会被危险所毁灭。有了知识，我们才能减小灾难的作用。

Exploration also allows minerals and other potential （潜在的）resources to be found．探索会让我们发现矿产和其他潜在资源。Even if we have no immediate （立刻adj.）need of them, they will perhaps be useful later．就算我们不是急着要用到那些，可能以后也会用得上。Resources may be more than physical possessions．资源不仅仅是指矿物。Knowledge or techniques have been acquired through exploration．知识和技术通过探索而取得。The techniques may have medical applications which can improve the length or quality of our lives． 这些科技可能会有医学价值而有助于提高人们的寿命和健康质量。We have already benefited from other improvements in earthquake prediction, in satellites for weather forecasting and in communications systems．我们已经从其他地震预测、卫星天测气预测以及循环系统的改进中受益 Even non-stick pans and mirrored sunglasses are by-products （副产品）of technological developments in the space industry!甚至是不粘锅和反光太阳镜也宇宙工业科技发展的是副产品。

While many resources are spent on what seems a small return, the exploration of space allows creative, brave and intelligent members of our species to focus on what may serve to save us．虽然许多的资源看起来是花在了回报很小的事情上，太空探索中所需要的我们种族中创造性、勇敢、智慧的成员会集中注意力在拯救我们上。While space may hold many wonders and explanations of how the universe was formed or how it works, it also holds dangers．虽然宇宙中有许多奇迹和解释了宇宙是如何形成和演变的，但宇宙也存在着危险。The danger exists, but knowledge can help human being to survive．虽然有危险的存在，但知识能帮助人类生存。Without the ability to reach out across space, the chance to save ourselves might not exist．没有能力达到宇宙空间，就没有拯救自己的机会。

While Earth is the only planet known to support life, surely the adaptive ability of humans would allow us to live on other planets．虽然地球是唯一已知有生命存在的行星，无疑的人类适应能力会允许我们在其他行星上生存。It is true that the lifestyle would be different, but human life and cultures have adapted in the past and surely could in the future．毋庸置疑的，那里的生活方式将会不同从前，但人类适应了过去的生活和文化也能适应未来。
