I was on a panel with a transhumanist, and he's going on about the singularity.

我和一超人道主义者在一小组里，他在讨论奇点。

Inside of a black hole, you are forced to travel to the singularity.

在黑洞内你被迫前往奇点。

Astronomers call this the singularity, which is as good a name as any.

天文学家称之为奇点，这名字不错。

Then light could escape from the black hole, allowing us to see into the singularity.

那么光就能从黑洞中逃出，这样我们就能看到黑洞的奇点了。

This is called a naked singularity, and it makes a lot of scientists uncomfortable.

这被称为一“裸奇点”，多科学家都认为这挺别扭的。

Lastly, a singularity is the most notorious phenomenon in the Universe.

后，奇点是宇宙中让天文学家头疼的现象。

Not exactly the Singularity that some people believe will someday inextricably combine human and machine.

有人相信人类终有一天能将人和机器紧密结合在一起，这并不完全是件稀奇的事。

You don't need some singularity to achieve that.

你并不需要一些奇点来实现这一点。

Then at the end, you would end up with a big singularity.

后你会得到一巨的奇点。

So that's one possible future of the universe that we end up in a singularity.

宇宙的结束可能是一的奇点。

If we could just see the collapsed star inside the singularity, yeah, we'd solve gravity.

如果我们可以在奇点里看到坍塌的星球，就能解决引力的问题了。

If a black hole is an oyster, then the singularity's the pearl inside.

假设黑洞是牡蛎，那奇点就是里面的珍珠了。

A space-time singularity, so the universe born from a black hole exploding.

时空奇点，宇宙源自黑洞的爆炸。

There is an indefinite sense that he must be invading some region of singularity, good or bad.

隐隐约约还会让人觉得，他一定在涉足于某种不是好便是坏的特别的行当。

It's what we call a gentle singularity.

就是我们所说的温和奇点。

But in a nutshell, everything that comes too close becomes black hole matter, concentrated at the singularity.

但总而言之，任何事物靠得黑洞太近都会变成黑洞物质，聚集浓缩在奇点之中。

As a rule of thumb, the further away from the singularity you are, the longer you live.

根据经验，离奇点越远，存活时间越长。

Something caused this singularity to suddenly let loose, expanding violently, cooling, and forming the Universe we see today.

某种原因导致这奇点突然松开，猛烈膨胀、冷却，形成了我们今天看到的宇宙。

That place is called the singularity, and it is the place where our understanding of the universe stops.

黑洞的中心称作奇点，我们对于宇宙的全部了解就到底为止了。

The singularity has no surface or size, something like a divide-by-zero error in the universe.

奇点并没有任何表面或是小尺寸，就像是宇宙版本的“任何数除以0”一样行不通。
