english: No one has traveled faster than the crew of Apollo 10, and blithe optimism about technology's powers has evaporated as big problems we had imagined technology would solve, such as going to Mars, creating clean energy, curing cancer, or feeding the world have come to seem intractably hard.
non_english: Niemand heeft sneller gereisd  dan de bemanning van Apollo 10. En luchthartig optimisme m.b.t. de krachten  van de technologie is in rook opgegaan toen grote problemen  die technologie zou gaan oplossen, zoals naar Mars gaan, schone energie produceren, kanker genezen, of de wereld voeden ongelooflijk moeilijk gingen lijken.
