もう宇宙時代なんだろうけど " It'll be already space age. "

僕は若いころから海外出張が多かったけど、最初にドイツに飛んだ時はアラスカのアンカレッジ経由だったんです。 北極海上空も飛んだので真っ白な世界が長かった

There were a lot of overseas business trips from young time, but when flying to Germany first, I was Alaskan Anchorage pass. It also flew over the Arctic Ocean sky, so the snow-white world was long.

そうはいっても、目的地(フランクフルト)まで12時間くらいでついていた

Even if I entered so, I had got to the destination (frankfurter) in about 12 hours.


僕は模型の帆船作りもするんだけど、ドイツの博物館で展示してあった帆船
I also do model sailboat making, the sailboat exhibited at a German museum.

大航海時代のものだと思うけど、日本とヨーロッパはどのくらいの時間がかかったのだろう
I think the one in the great navigation era, but how long would it take in Japan and Europe?

19世紀になってもイギリスの高速帆船が中国(上海)まで100日以上かかっていたようです、(もちろん南アフリカの喜望峰経由です)
Even if it was the 19th century, maybe it took more than 100 days for a British high-speed sailboat to China (Shanghai) (It was South African Cape of Good Hope pass of course.)


帆船でゆ~ったりと旅をしてみたいと思うけど、やはりこんな船では危険がいっぱいなんでしょうね。
I'd like to travel comfortably by a sailboat, but danger will be much as expected by such ship, won't it?


僕が若い時は、あと数十年経つと、数時間で地球一周旅行ができると言われていたのですが
When I was young, it was said that they could take a global circumnavigation in several hours in tens of years more.


いま宇宙船で地球を1周するのは90分くらいらしいですが
To go around the earth by spacecraft now seems to be about 90 minutes.

宇宙服なしで5~6時間で地球の裏側につくようになるのはいつのことでしょうね。
Which thing starts to stick to the global back in 5-6 hours without penguin suit?

それとも突然地球外のUFOが解明できて、太陽系の星なら数日で飛んでいけるとか
Or a UFO outside the earth can be elucidated suddenly, and it can fly over a star in the solar system in several days .



恒星間を一瞬にワープできるとか
It's cut with a warp in a moment between the fixed star.

ひょっとしたら実現するのかも???
May it be achieved one?
