Based on their findings, the researchers built a metal mimic.

基于这样发现，研究人员制造出了一种金属模拟物。

Chances are, our creators would turn out to be someone else's simulation.

很有可能， 我造者最终会变成别人模拟物。

[A.J.] Right, so this is a very, what we call a physical simulant.

- [A.J.] 是， 所以这是一个非常，我称之为物理模拟物。

I think some people believe that laboratory-grown diamond means fake diamond, that it's cubic zirconia, or Moissanite, that it's some sort of diamond simulant.

我认为有些人认为培育钻石意味着假钻石，认为它是立方氧化锆，或者是莫桑石，它是某种钻石模拟物。

Which you define as the subjective phenomenon of knowingly engaging with virtual sensation and perception and suspending or forgetting the context that it's simulacrum.

你将其定义为一种主观现象，即有意识地参与虚拟感觉和感知，并暂时或遗忘其作为模拟物背景。

Then the researchers will check whether the simulacrum affects water waves in a way analogous to that which general relativity predicts for light—itself a wave—approaching an astrophysical black hole.

到时，研究者会检查这个模拟物，是否会以一种与广义相对论预测光（光本身就是一种波），接近天体物理学黑洞类似方式影响水波。
