| Just take a look at the motion of the lava lakes speed up, | 请看加速后的岩浆运动。 |
| something intriguing is happening. | 有些内容十分令人耸动。 |
| The movement of the lava follows a very distinctive pattern, | 熔岩的运动遵循一种独特的模式， |
| it wells up from one side of the crater, | 熔岩从火山口的一侧冒出， |
| form a dark crust as it cools, | 随着熔岩冷却，形成一层黑色的外壳。 |

| As we'll discover, this process of molten rock churning away below the surface effects our entire planet. | 正如我们将要发现的一样，这种熔岩沉落到表面下的过程影响了我们的整个星球。 |
| That is because this lava lake is connected to a gigantic source of heat, that lies deep inside the Earth. | 因为熔岩湖与一个巨大的热源紧密相连。这个热源就储存在地球深深的内部。 |
| I think it is fair to say that most of us go about our daily lives, completely unaware that underneath a feet, our planet is incredibly hot. | 我想完全可以这样说，大多数人每日忙忙碌碌，完全没有意识到就在脚下，我们的行星炙热无比，令人难以置信。 |
| I mean, we live on a thin skin of cool rock. | 我的意思是：我们其实是生活在由冷却岩石构成的一层表皮上。 |
| Precariously, we are carried to in the cold freezer of space up there | 人类实际上是岌岌可危的生活在上方酷寒太空， |
| and the red hot furnace down there. | 和下方炙热熔炉之间。 |
| And what a source of powerness form this is, the Earth heat does far more than just fuel volcanoes. | 这样的能量多么令人赞叹。地球热能的作用远远不止为火山提供能源。 |
| it created the first atmosphere in the oceans, | 它从海洋中创造了最初的大气层。 |

| And it created the conditions for life on Earth to begin. | 并且创造了地球产生生命必须的条件。 |
| In fact, you could say that the whole history of the planet has been driven by the massive heat trapped inside it. | 实际上完全可以说，地球全部的历史都受到保存在地球内部的巨大热能的驱动。 |
| To understand where our planet's inner heat comes from, we have to go back 4.5 billion years to a time of Earth's own birth. | 为了理解地球内热的来源，我们必须返回到45亿年前，地球刚刚诞生的时刻。 |
| It was a period called the Hadean, after Hades, the kingdom of hell. | 这个时期被称为冥古代，名字来源于地狱之王海德斯。 |
| which is a good name because this was a hot, hostile and violent world. | 这个名字十分恰当，当时的世界酷热无比，充满暴力。 |
| You may not recognize it, but this is our planet in its very earliest days. | 也许您对它不大熟悉，可这就是地球最初的样子。 |
| Little more than a few pieces of rock, | 差不多也就是数块岩石。 |
| colliding as they circle around the Sun. | 他们围绕太阳公转，并相互碰撞。 |
| These impact were so violent, they generated immense amounts of heat. | 这样的碰撞十分猛烈，因此产生了庞大无匹的热能。 |
| and it also delivered a vast quantities of radio active material to the Earth. | 同时，碰撞使大量放射性物质进入地球。 |
| Eventually, when the outer layers of the planet cooled, these two powerful sources of heat were trapped in a huge hot core. | 最终，当行星表层冷却后，这两个渠道产生的热量都被困在一个巨大的热核里。 |
| The center of our planet is as hot as the surface of the Sun. | 地核温度等于太阳表面的温度。 |
| This is the source of Earth's vast heat energy. | 这就是地球庞大热量的来源。 |
| And it was what fueled volcano to this day. | 正是这些热量驱使着如今的火山。 |
| Trapped within our planet, Earth's hot core has been continuously releasing unimaginable amounts of heat. | 困在地球内部的热核不断释放难以想象的热能。 |
| To get you some idea of how much, when you realize that even after 4.5 billion years, there are still plenty left. | 当您意识到经过45亿年，剩余的热量还有如此之多，您就对它的规模有了概念。 |
| Earth's inner heat make the planet surface incredibly dynamic. | 地球内部的热量使得地表变动不断，令人震惊。 |
| It has created a restless, continually changing landscape unlike any other in the solar system. | 它使地貌持续变动，沧海桑田，永不停歇。在太阳系中没有其它类似的情况。 |
| It is a world of destruction and renewal. | 这个世界不断毁灭，又不断重生。 |
| This is Iceland. | 这里是冰岛。 |
| A place that offers a great opportunity to see exactly how Earth inner heat is continually reshaping the planet's landscape. | 这个地方使我们有良好的机会，准确了解地球内热是如何持续塑造地貌的。 |
| Molten rock usually lies hundreds kilometer underground, but here, as in Ethiopia, it is much closer. | 熔岩通常位于地下数百公里处。但是在冰岛，正如埃塞俄比亚一样，这里的熔岩距地面要近得多。 |
| Yet the effect is very different. | 但由此产生的效果却十分不同。 |

| There are naturally heated pools everywhere in the island. | 天然加热的池子密布全岛。 |
| which makes going for a dip something of a national pastime. | 这使得泡噪成为举国喜爱的嗜好。 |
| These hot springs are fabulous for relaxation, provide you don¡¯t mind sharing your bath. | 只要您不介意和人共同沐浴，这些温泉用于放松身心，的确无与伦比。 |
| The mineral rich water is meant to have therapeutic qualities. | 泉水富含矿物质，据信拥有一定疗效。 |
| but the people here might not be quite so realized to knew exactly how the water get heated. | 可是当地人也许并不能准确地掌握泉水加热的原理。 |
| right beneath this is a sheaving mass of red hot molten rock | 紧靠着地面，有着大块红热的熔岩。 |
| Just 20 kilometers beneath Iceland, is a vast column of super heated rock, known as a plume. | 冰岛下方20公里处，有块庞大的超热熔岩物质，被称为地柱。 |
| Recently the shape of this hot plume has been mapped. | 最近，人们测量了该炙热地柱的形状。 |
| It is 100 kilometers wide, and at least 600 kilometers deep. | 它宽为100公里，深度至少为600公里。 |
| Created more than 50 million years ago, the plume is sustained by heat continually rising up from the Earth's hot core. | 它于大约5千万年前形成。从地核升起的热量不断维持着这一地柱。 |
| But this giant plume of super heated plume has done much more than just warm up Iceland's hot springs. | 这一庞大超热地柱的作用，绝不仅仅在于加热冰岛的温泉。 |
| It also created Iceland itself. | 冰岛本身就是由这一地柱造就的。 |
| In 1963, we got to see how it must have happened. | 1963年，我们目睹了冰岛在过去生成时的景象。 |
| A volcano, just beneath thesea surface blasted its way out of the water. | 紧靠海面下的一座火山爆发，物质喷出海面。 |
| A new island, Surtsey, was born. | 并生成了一座新的岛屿，被命名为苏尔特塞岛。 |
| This was what Iceland must have looked like 15 million years ago when it first burst above the surface. | 1千5百万年前，冰岛必定也是这样初次冒出海面的。 |
| But what makes Iceland so unusual? It is not just it sits above a hot plume, | 但冰岛不同寻常，不仅仅在于它位居炙热地柱之上。 |
| This small island is also shaped by the Earth's inner heat in another much more powerful way. | 地球内热还以另一种更加强有力的方式，塑造了这座小岛。 |
| This is Thingvellir, | 这里是 辛威里尔。 |
| It is an important place in human history, because in AD 930, a group of Iceland chieftains gathered here to solve their disputes. | 这个地点名垂人类历史。因为公元930年，一群冰岛首领聚集于此，解决纷争。 |
| This was the world's first parliament. | 这是全世界最早的议会， |
| which then set here for the next 8 centuries. | 该议会在此地存续8个世纪。 |
| But there is another reason, why this is an important place. | 不过这个地点的重要性，还有另外一个原因。 |
| Although they didn't know it, those early pioneer of democracy has set up the parliament in the shadow of a most extraordinary rock face. | 虽然并不知情，这些民主先驱实际上把议会建在了最非凡的岩壁之下。 |
| From the air, you can begin to see just how unusual this rock face is | 从空中俯瞰，您就会体会到该岩壁的非凡之处。 |
| It is a crack in Earth's surface that runs for hundreds of kilometers. | 这是地表的一道裂缝，绵延数百公里。 |
| But what we are looking at is just a tiny part of something much, much bigger. | 然而我们眼中所见，仅是整体中极其微小的一段。 |
| This is the edge of a gigantic slab of the Earth's crust which runs unbroken for seven thousand kilometer. | 这是地壳上一个巨大板块的边界。这个边界长达数千公里，完完整整，没有任何间断。 |
| right from this point, under the Atlantic, across the USA, all the way to California. | 从这里开始，下探大西洋、穿越美国，一路延伸，直至加利福尼亚。 |
| It is what was known as the north America Plate, | 这个板块就是：北美板块。 |
| The earth's surface is broken up into seven major chunks | 地壳分裂为七大块， |
| called plates. | 称为板块。 |
| They are so enormous, that they can carry an entire continent, and extend far under the sea. | 这些板块庞大无匹，他们包含整个大陆，并远远延伸至海底。 |
| Stripped away the Atlantic ocean, and you can see a long boundary between 2 of these plates | 设若剥离大西洋，我们就能目睹两大板块之间的边界。 |
| that runs along the ocean floor, | 它在海底一路蜿蜒， |
| until it rises above the waves, | 直至跃出海面， |
| cuts through Iceland, | 刺穿冰岛， |
| to eventually join up with the rock face at Thingvellir. | 最终连接辛威里尔的岩壁。 |
| It is possible to see this plate boundary from a completely different perspective. | 我们可以从一个全新角度来观察这个边界。 |
| This is a very cold place to go skip diving, the waters are just 4 degree Celsius. | 在这里潜水很冷，水温只有4摄氏度。 |
| but it is worth it. | 不过很值。 |
| because I am actually swimming in the gap between the 2 giant plates that run through Iceland. | 因为我游泳的地方，正是贯穿冰岛的两大板块之间的裂口。 |
| To my left, the north American plate, | 左边，是北美板块。 |
| And to my right, Europe. | 右边，是欧亚板块。 |
| These sheer rock faces were once joined together | 这些陡峭的岩壁从前是一个整体。 |
| but driven by immense geological forces, the land were split apart to create these deep chasms, which filled with water. | 但受到庞大地质力量的作用，土地分裂，生成了这些深深的裂口。裂口然后进水。 |
| It is hard to imagine a force that can move continents apart | 难以想象有什么力量能够移动整个大陆， |
| yet this was precisely what Earth's inner heat is able to do. | 但毫无疑问，这正是地球内热的作用。 |
| It happens because hot rock rises, heated by the Earth's core, | 其原理是：受到地核加热的高温岩石上升， |
| near the surface, the rock spread in 2 directions, | 在接近地表时，岩石向两个方向伸展， |
| and go sideways, | 向侧面移动， |
| it begins to lose heat. | 并逐渐失去热能， |
| eventually, the much cooler rocks sinks back down. | 最终，温度已经下降许多的岩石向下沉降。 |
| through this spreading process, the Earth crust is very slowly dragged apart, | 在岩石伸展的过程中，地壳被牵引分离。 |
| and it is this, that ultimately caused the continents to move. | 这正是大陆移动的终极原因。 |
| the lava lake at Erta Ale, is an example of same process. | 厄塔阿里的岩浆湖是这种作用的一个例子， |
| but in miniature. | 是缩微版本。 |
| As we have seen, the movement of hot lava drags a crust across the surface of the lake. | 我们已经观察到，移动的熔岩拖着那层硬壳，横穿熔岩湖的表面。 |
| Just as the continents are pulled across the earth's surface. | 这与大陆被牵引着穿越地壳，如出一辙。 |
| To appreciate the idea of continent moving, you have to step outside human time scales. | 为了理解大陆移动的概念，您必须跳出人类习惯的时间量级。 |
| and think in terms of a completely different time frame. | 并以完全不同的时间框架进行思考。 |
