This is a perfect example, how somebody constantly repeats himself, lives on buzzwords but has not much to say at all. This topic could have been really thrilling, but there is no reason, why this particular episode should have been longer than 15 minutes.

Hey I wish I had the chance like Jasmine said. We all have our own achievements in life time but I don't know if it matters in the end. Is the goal of life os living in a circle of eating, sleeping, school, university, marriage, having kids and die? Then the main question still remains unknown which is :which dimension we are in. What's our origin? What are we doing here? Is this a programmed universe? Affter all it overwhelming. Every time I looke to the night I wish I coud experience what you're doing in space agencies..
