Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:10,730 --> 00:00:11,810
Recovery 1, this is Control.
2
00:00:12,390 --> 00:00:14,470
Initiate APU pre -start procedure.
3
00:00:14,710 --> 00:00:15,710
Over.
4
00:00:16,129 --> 00:00:19,030
Roger, Recovery 1. Power APUs now.
5
00:00:20,110 --> 00:00:22,250
APU fuel tank valves open. Roger.
6
00:00:22,690 --> 00:00:23,890
Fuel tank open.
7
00:00:24,250 --> 00:00:25,970
Run APU Control 1.
8
00:00:26,270 --> 00:00:28,730
Roger. APU 1, start.
9
00:00:32,229 --> 00:00:34,990
T -minus two minutes. All systems go.
10
00:00:35,890 --> 00:00:37,110
H2 is pressurized.
11
00:00:38,430 --> 00:00:39,470
Go for launch.
12
00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:41,760
Recovery one, this is control.
13
00:00:42,420 --> 00:00:45,060
You are looking good and are go for
launch, over.
14
00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:46,900
Roger, go for launch.
15
00:00:47,180 --> 00:00:50,440
You ever wonder what it's like sitting
on top of six million pounds of truck?
16
00:00:57,460 --> 00:01:00,060
Reading steel failure in E .T. Liquid
hydrogen leak imminent.
17
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:01,800
Aboard launch.
18
00:01:02,570 --> 00:01:06,810
Recovery one, you have external tank
failure. Abort immediately. I repeat,
19
00:01:06,810 --> 00:01:07,850
immediately. Over.
20
00:01:08,070 --> 00:01:10,470
Roger. Aborting out. All right,
everyone, let's move.
21
00:01:30,410 --> 00:01:31,570
Baskett 2 away.
22
00:01:32,970 --> 00:01:36,790
30 seconds until tank rupture.
23
00:01:40,350 --> 00:01:41,710
Baskett 2 recovered.
24
00:01:45,190 --> 00:01:47,030
Baskett 1 away.
25
00:02:00,750 --> 00:02:01,810
Basket one recovered.
26
00:02:03,570 --> 00:02:05,870
Mission specialist on ground. What's he
waiting for?
27
00:02:06,390 --> 00:02:07,430
His shuttle command.
28
00:03:22,920 --> 00:03:23,920
Okay.
29
00:03:24,500 --> 00:03:28,340
Do you fly like that every time you go
up, sir, or are you just showing off?
30
00:03:28,580 --> 00:03:30,180
Your first time shooting a sonic,
Lieutenant?
31
00:03:30,460 --> 00:03:32,800
No, sir. Just my first time with a
lawyer.
32
00:03:33,660 --> 00:03:34,900
How do I rate?
33
00:03:35,540 --> 00:03:37,540
Could have done without the snaffles.
34
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:39,380
I'd have to leave an impression.
35
00:03:39,580 --> 00:03:41,420
Then you could have used a little more
runway.
36
00:03:41,900 --> 00:03:44,060
You want a long roll, I'll fly the Air
Force.
37
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:46,260
Ooh, careful, Harm. We're in their
territory.
38
00:03:46,780 --> 00:03:50,700
There are a lot of friendlies around
here, Meg. The space program likes Navy
39
00:03:50,700 --> 00:03:52,760
pilots. We make their best astronauts.
40
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:57,420
Right. I think I read that somewhere in
Kepler's laws of planetary motion.
41
00:03:57,740 --> 00:04:01,660
Hey, all I need to say is the first
American in outer space was not an Air
42
00:04:01,660 --> 00:04:04,420
jock. They put up a man who knew how to
make a trap.
43
00:04:04,900 --> 00:04:07,200
And why was the first man in orbit a
marine?
44
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:15,580
I didn't know the Navy had such a budget
surplus.
45
00:04:16,079 --> 00:04:18,860
They transport their JAG officers and
jet fighters.
46
00:04:20,010 --> 00:04:22,290
Our Admiral told us to get here ASAP,
sir.
47
00:04:22,570 --> 00:04:25,230
You take a joyride back and tell him
we've got it under control.
48
00:04:25,690 --> 00:04:28,330
Can't do that, Lieutenant Commander
Atkinson's Navy, sir.
49
00:04:28,650 --> 00:04:30,370
Assigned to the Military Space Agency.
50
00:04:30,870 --> 00:04:34,350
I understand that, Colonel, but
investigating his death still lies
51
00:04:34,350 --> 00:04:35,350
jurisdiction.
52
00:04:35,550 --> 00:04:39,510
We try to avoid politics, Commander.
That's why we use Vandenberg to launch
53
00:04:39,510 --> 00:04:40,730
military missions, sir.
54
00:04:41,090 --> 00:04:43,170
Understood, sir, but I have my orders.
55
00:04:43,850 --> 00:04:47,990
All I can tell you, Commander, is Atkins
fell to his death during an emergency
56
00:04:47,990 --> 00:04:50,470
evacuation drill when the cable failed.
57
00:04:50,810 --> 00:04:53,750
We adjusted the capture bar. It was an
alignment problem.
58
00:04:54,050 --> 00:04:57,830
Good. Have you concluded why the cable
failed, sir? Not yet. Mr. Gallant is
59
00:04:57,830 --> 00:05:01,370
analyzing that. Which reminds me, I need
to check on the stress test results.
60
00:05:01,650 --> 00:05:05,630
And I'm on an accelerated schedule, so
if you'll excuse me, I have a launch in
61
00:05:05,630 --> 00:05:06,569
48 hours.
62
00:05:06,570 --> 00:05:07,750
You're going ahead with the launch, sir?
63
00:05:08,730 --> 00:05:10,510
It must be an awfully important mission.
64
00:05:11,610 --> 00:05:12,610
Need to know, Commander.
65
00:05:14,190 --> 00:05:17,530
The backup pilot passed his physical,
sir. Good. Let him know he's on.
66
00:05:18,290 --> 00:05:21,470
Any further questions, you can direct to
my assistant, Captain Tang.
67
00:05:22,870 --> 00:05:23,870
Sir, Lieutenant.
68
00:05:25,790 --> 00:05:28,190
Looks like I get to deliver some good
news for a change.
69
00:05:29,810 --> 00:05:30,809
Where are they?
70
00:05:30,810 --> 00:05:31,970
Simulator on final approach.
71
00:05:33,290 --> 00:05:34,290
Initiate pre -flare.
72
00:05:34,410 --> 00:05:36,130
Roger. Adjusting glide slope.
73
00:05:37,010 --> 00:05:38,010
Looking good.
74
00:05:38,450 --> 00:05:39,450
That's a steep approach.
75
00:05:40,090 --> 00:05:43,650
Well, it starts at 19 degrees, about six
times steeper than commercial aircraft.
76
00:05:44,110 --> 00:05:48,030
And there are no pull -ups. With the 200
,000 -pound glider, we call it the
77
00:05:48,030 --> 00:05:49,030
flying brick.
78
00:05:50,430 --> 00:05:51,369
Yes, sir.
79
00:05:51,370 --> 00:05:54,490
I'd like to go up to the launch
structure, take a look at the egress
80
00:05:54,570 --> 00:05:56,650
Yes, sir. I'll try to arrange something
for this afternoon.
81
00:05:56,890 --> 00:05:58,150
Recovery one, gear down.
82
00:05:58,370 --> 00:05:59,610
Over. Gear down and locked.
83
00:05:59,830 --> 00:06:00,830
Over.
84
00:06:01,150 --> 00:06:02,150
I know that voice.
85
00:06:02,470 --> 00:06:03,470
He's good.
86
00:06:03,690 --> 00:06:06,390
He just feels like a backup quarterback
called into the Super Bowl.
87
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:10,980
You train all season, but you never
expect to play. Recovery one, main gear
88
00:06:10,980 --> 00:06:11,679
ten feet.
89
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:13,860
Then suddenly it's, okay, Laurie, you're
up.
90
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,820
Pull it out for us. Lieutenant Commander
Mark Lowry.
91
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:20,140
Yes, sir. Three feet. Two feet.
92
00:06:21,420 --> 00:06:22,420
One.
93
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:24,940
Touchdown. Perfect.
94
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:27,160
I guess you're right.
95
00:06:27,500 --> 00:06:29,180
Navy does make the best astronauts.
96
00:06:32,860 --> 00:06:33,859
Excuse me, sir.
97
00:06:33,860 --> 00:06:34,940
You've passed your physical.
98
00:06:36,150 --> 00:06:37,770
Congratulations. Thank you.
99
00:06:40,570 --> 00:06:41,570
Commander?
100
00:06:41,770 --> 00:06:42,770
Lieutenant Rob.
101
00:06:43,330 --> 00:06:44,330
What are you doing here?
102
00:06:44,770 --> 00:06:45,930
Actually, it's Lieutenant Commander.
103
00:06:47,770 --> 00:06:48,770
So it is.
104
00:06:49,190 --> 00:06:52,030
Congratulations. Thanks, you too. Sorry
I couldn't be under better
105
00:06:52,030 --> 00:06:53,030
circumstances.
106
00:06:53,490 --> 00:06:56,270
So you're still flapping your wings, or
did she fly you in?
107
00:06:58,090 --> 00:06:59,550
No, I managed all right on my own.
108
00:06:59,990 --> 00:07:00,990
So how's Jag?
109
00:07:01,730 --> 00:07:02,730
Keeps me busy.
110
00:07:02,790 --> 00:07:03,649
I bet.
111
00:07:03,650 --> 00:07:05,170
All those legal briefs to file.
112
00:07:06,250 --> 00:07:07,450
You have to excuse me.
113
00:07:07,850 --> 00:07:09,310
I've got a mission to prep for.
114
00:07:09,830 --> 00:07:10,830
Certainly.
115
00:07:12,530 --> 00:07:13,870
What was that about?
116
00:07:14,330 --> 00:07:17,870
What? Come on, Harmon. I know a
cockfight when I see one.
117
00:07:18,570 --> 00:07:20,310
He was in my first Tomcat squad.
118
00:07:20,930 --> 00:07:21,930
What'd he do?
119
00:07:22,150 --> 00:07:23,150
Outfly you?
120
00:07:23,730 --> 00:07:25,330
Never. Then?
121
00:07:28,170 --> 00:07:29,230
There's a hot shot.
122
00:07:29,630 --> 00:07:30,630
Hot, aggressive,
123
00:07:31,190 --> 00:07:32,190
hyper -competitive.
124
00:07:32,350 --> 00:07:33,350
Kind of like you?
125
00:07:34,390 --> 00:07:35,390
Sir?
126
00:07:36,170 --> 00:07:38,390
Why would MSA let him fly the shuttle?
127
00:07:39,530 --> 00:07:41,210
Maybe because he's good at it.
128
00:07:42,070 --> 00:07:43,070
Gee, thanks.
129
00:07:47,510 --> 00:07:49,830
Looks a lot bigger in person, doesn't
it?
130
00:07:51,470 --> 00:07:53,970
Who would have ever thought we'd be this
close to it?
131
00:07:55,090 --> 00:07:56,350
Speak for yourself, Lieutenant.
132
00:07:57,290 --> 00:07:59,190
July 20th, 1969.
133
00:08:00,350 --> 00:08:01,970
The Apollo moon landing?
134
00:08:03,270 --> 00:08:04,270
Watched it with my mom.
135
00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:10,180
I remember seeing Armstrong roaming
around up there, wondering if he stopped
136
00:08:10,180 --> 00:08:11,800
right then and looked up at the Earth.
137
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:16,320
He'd see me and my dad in Vietnam at the
same time.
138
00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:21,360
I bet there were a lot of future
astronauts recruited that night.
139
00:08:21,740 --> 00:08:22,740
Yeah, I bet there were.
140
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:25,020
What do you remember about him?
141
00:08:25,820 --> 00:08:27,720
Nothing. He was a baby.
142
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,880
Lieutenant Commander Raff, Lieutenant
Austin, this is our mission shuttle
143
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:36,880
commander, Major Russell.
144
00:08:37,059 --> 00:08:40,080
Major? He was the closest man to Atkins
when the cable broke.
145
00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:43,940
Thanks for your time, Major. I hope
we're not taking too much of it. Not at
146
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:45,520
It's a pretty straightforward system.
147
00:08:45,940 --> 00:08:47,960
Steel baskets connected to the slide
wires.
148
00:08:48,260 --> 00:08:52,140
The astronauts jump in, release the
brake, slide to the entrance of
149
00:08:52,140 --> 00:08:53,380
bunkers at the landing zone.
150
00:08:53,900 --> 00:08:56,180
When did you know Commander Atkins was
in trouble?
151
00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:57,859
I didn't.
152
00:08:57,860 --> 00:08:59,500
I was late coming out of the hat.
153
00:09:00,300 --> 00:09:03,020
Atkins waited until he saw me before he
started down.
154
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:07,420
I was at my basket when I heard this
snap.
155
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:10,100
I looked up. He was already falling.
156
00:09:10,460 --> 00:09:12,560
Did the cable show signs of strain
before?
157
00:09:12,900 --> 00:09:16,180
It was brand new. They put it up right
after the blue team's run through that
158
00:09:16,180 --> 00:09:17,180
morning.
159
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:18,400
Just this once?
160
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:20,420
Apparently it was frayed at one end.
161
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:22,920
Who noticed it?
162
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,060
I believe it was Lieutenant Commander
Lowry.
163
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:32,500
Mission Specialist 1 away.
164
00:09:32,980 --> 00:09:35,080
Mission Specialist 2 reaches the basket.
165
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:36,760
Number 2 away.
166
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:39,680
Commander Atkins waits for the Major.
167
00:09:40,700 --> 00:09:41,700
He sees him.
168
00:09:42,140 --> 00:09:43,440
Major orders him to go.
169
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:45,060
Atkins pops in the basket.
170
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:47,520
30 feet down, he falls.
171
00:09:52,820 --> 00:09:56,540
It's not as high profile as the
Challenger accident, but the end result
172
00:09:56,540 --> 00:09:58,660
same. The astronaut died.
173
00:09:59,060 --> 00:10:00,260
Doesn't look real somehow.
174
00:10:00,810 --> 00:10:02,290
Even watching too many action movies.
175
00:10:02,510 --> 00:10:05,950
They shoot those things from eight
different angles, repeat the action,
176
00:10:05,950 --> 00:10:07,910
back in slow -mo. Cuts people's
reactions.
177
00:10:08,650 --> 00:10:10,910
An accident like this in real life
happens.
178
00:10:12,230 --> 00:10:13,850
Do you realize what was happening?
179
00:10:17,650 --> 00:10:19,030
Play it back at quarter speed.
180
00:10:19,490 --> 00:10:20,490
Yes, sir.
181
00:10:20,870 --> 00:10:22,130
It's ironic, actually.
182
00:10:22,850 --> 00:10:26,310
Billions of dollars we spend on systems
needed for manned space flight.
183
00:10:26,530 --> 00:10:29,290
We lose an astronaut because of a faulty
piece of cable.
184
00:10:29,870 --> 00:10:30,870
Here you go, sir.
185
00:10:39,070 --> 00:10:40,790
Stop. Go back.
186
00:10:44,530 --> 00:10:45,530
Come on, dear.
187
00:10:46,530 --> 00:10:48,590
Did you flick between this frame and the
one before?
188
00:10:52,250 --> 00:10:54,110
I assumed that it broke at one end.
189
00:10:54,590 --> 00:10:56,990
What would cause it to snap in the
middle like that?
190
00:11:02,990 --> 00:11:06,750
I must admit, I was somewhat baffled at
first. I couldn't imagine what would
191
00:11:06,750 --> 00:11:08,770
cause it to break so cleanly right in
the middle.
192
00:11:09,090 --> 00:11:13,770
Until I noticed a small circular pattern
along the break in the seat that
193
00:11:13,770 --> 00:11:14,770
surrounds the cable.
194
00:11:14,810 --> 00:11:16,510
Where? Right there.
195
00:11:17,190 --> 00:11:20,290
There may have been a tiny hole there
before the break.
196
00:11:20,810 --> 00:11:21,810
What does that mean?
197
00:11:21,910 --> 00:11:23,210
Well, not a lot by itself.
198
00:11:23,730 --> 00:11:27,490
But it made me go back and check the
cable at each end of the break for
199
00:11:27,490 --> 00:11:28,550
vaporized steel deposits.
200
00:11:28,910 --> 00:11:29,910
Just like that.
201
00:11:31,050 --> 00:11:32,990
Saying the cable was cut by a laser?
202
00:11:34,130 --> 00:11:35,170
Not just cut.
203
00:11:36,110 --> 00:11:39,150
They hollowed it out by carefully
rotating it.
204
00:11:39,710 --> 00:11:44,290
The outside looked normal, except for
the very tiny hole.
205
00:11:44,850 --> 00:11:46,110
It was sabotage.
206
00:11:46,690 --> 00:11:48,030
Clever sabotage.
207
00:11:48,250 --> 00:11:52,050
There was just enough math left around
the perimeter of the hole to support the
208
00:11:52,050 --> 00:11:53,310
basket during the test run.
209
00:11:53,670 --> 00:11:57,110
Add the weight of an astronaut, and nah.
210
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:13,400
Near the top. Not the major, but I
thought I should tell somebody.
211
00:12:13,620 --> 00:12:17,300
I mean, I didn't know the replacement
cable would be defective.
212
00:12:17,780 --> 00:12:18,840
More like sabotage.
213
00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:20,660
Cable was rigged to break.
214
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:22,520
Atkin was murdered.
215
00:12:23,020 --> 00:12:23,879
By who?
216
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:24,779
I don't know.
217
00:12:24,780 --> 00:12:26,020
Who would have the most to gain?
218
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:30,460
Oh, wait a minute. I don't think I like
where you're going with this. Look, this
219
00:12:30,460 --> 00:12:31,460
is awkward.
220
00:12:31,740 --> 00:12:33,280
Because you and I don't get along.
221
00:12:33,820 --> 00:12:35,700
But right now, it doesn't look too good
for you.
222
00:12:37,560 --> 00:12:38,560
Hey, look.
223
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:43,780
I want my chance just as much as the
next guy, but I wouldn't kill for it. I
224
00:12:43,780 --> 00:12:44,539
hope not.
225
00:12:44,540 --> 00:12:47,360
But I'm afraid I'm going to have to have
you pulled from this mission until we
226
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:48,360
know for sure.
227
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:53,100
You do that, and you're just about
guaranteed that I never get another
228
00:12:53,540 --> 00:12:55,400
Sorry, it's not personal.
229
00:12:55,820 --> 00:12:58,620
The hell it isn't. Hey, you think this
is a game?
230
00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:04,220
We're not nuggets on our first mission.
I know what's at stake. Yeah, my career.
231
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:08,420
Don't come after mine just because you
flushed yours down the toilet. I'd stop
232
00:13:08,420 --> 00:13:09,420
it right there, Commander.
233
00:13:09,680 --> 00:13:11,340
Why? Let's be honest.
234
00:13:11,620 --> 00:13:15,540
You got your ticket pulled and you can't
handle seeing me with a chance to walk
235
00:13:15,540 --> 00:13:16,359
in space.
236
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:18,640
Hey, that's your dream, not mine. Yeah,
right.
237
00:13:27,860 --> 00:13:30,920
What do you think, Meg? You think I'm
making this personal?
238
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:32,240
What are you going to do?
239
00:13:32,500 --> 00:13:34,440
Justify your feelings by protecting him?
240
00:13:34,730 --> 00:13:36,170
Yeah, but do I have to take him down?
241
00:13:36,870 --> 00:13:39,210
Arm, you don't have a choice.
242
00:13:42,930 --> 00:13:46,990
Out of the question. We need Lowry. He's
the only other pilot we have trained
243
00:13:46,990 --> 00:13:47,869
for this mission.
244
00:13:47,870 --> 00:13:50,750
I beg your pardon, Colonel, but wouldn't
Prudence suggest delaying the mission
245
00:13:50,750 --> 00:13:53,330
entirely, sir? We're going to launch on
schedule, Commander.
246
00:13:53,890 --> 00:13:54,930
It's not open for debate.
247
00:13:55,210 --> 00:13:58,530
Sir, it's my duty to summon a board of
inquiry, in which case the Navy will
248
00:13:58,530 --> 00:14:00,890
simply not allow Commander Lowry on that
spaceship.
249
00:14:02,830 --> 00:14:03,970
Shut the door, Captain.
250
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:10,420
I can't let you do that, Commander.
251
00:14:11,100 --> 00:14:14,820
And the boys upstairs won't let you.
Mission is that critical, sir?
252
00:14:16,140 --> 00:14:17,140
Captain?
253
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:20,880
Until recently, the U .S. was monitoring
eastern China and the Asian Pacific
254
00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:25,640
with a recon satellite in a
geosynchronous orbit, giving us real
255
00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:26,640
the region.
256
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,460
Twenty -six days ago, we lost all
contact with it.
257
00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:31,260
They think the power cells failed.
258
00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:33,560
Aren't there other satellites that can
pick up the coverage?
259
00:14:33,860 --> 00:14:36,820
Only intermittently. We're blind over 90
% of the time.
260
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:39,960
It's not a very good percentage, given
China's recent show of force.
261
00:14:40,220 --> 00:14:41,900
You don't have a replacement satellite,
sir?
262
00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:45,320
Launched two weeks ago on a Titan
rocket.
263
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:49,880
Unfortunately, the third stage booster
failed, never made it to proper orbit.
264
00:14:50,420 --> 00:14:53,940
We've got to go up and fix it. We have
to change Recovery One's mission profile
265
00:14:53,940 --> 00:14:55,260
and push up the launch.
266
00:14:55,700 --> 00:14:57,340
That's why I have a last -minute
training.
267
00:14:57,920 --> 00:14:59,760
Lowry will perform the capture
procedure.
268
00:15:00,060 --> 00:15:02,620
The second satellite could fall out of
orbit and burn up.
269
00:15:02,830 --> 00:15:06,650
If we don't retrieve it within the next
three to four days. Which means I have a
270
00:15:06,650 --> 00:15:07,790
day and a half to launch.
271
00:15:08,050 --> 00:15:11,750
Then that gives us 36 hours to determine
exactly what happened, sir.
272
00:15:12,510 --> 00:15:13,510
Very well, Commander.
273
00:15:13,730 --> 00:15:14,730
Dismissed.
274
00:15:14,970 --> 00:15:15,970
Bye, sir.
275
00:15:17,770 --> 00:15:21,290
Excuse me, sir. What was Recovery One's
original mission profile?
276
00:15:23,450 --> 00:15:24,810
High -energy light experiments.
277
00:15:25,870 --> 00:15:27,590
You mean testing lasers, sir?
278
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:38,879
on lasers?
279
00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:40,340
Of course. Both crews.
280
00:15:40,660 --> 00:15:42,940
Did they include the type you used in
your demonstration?
281
00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:45,880
Yeah. Why? You suspect an astronaut?
282
00:15:46,260 --> 00:15:48,080
We're just covering all possibilities.
283
00:15:48,540 --> 00:15:50,600
Where are the lasers kept when they're
not in use?
284
00:15:50,980 --> 00:15:52,120
The training facility.
285
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:54,680
So astronauts have unrestricted access.
286
00:15:55,260 --> 00:15:56,260
Of course.
287
00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:02,140
Sir, I checked the security system to
the storage facility where the cable was
288
00:16:02,140 --> 00:16:06,020
housed. Apparently, Lieutenant Commander
Lowry's access card was used to gain
289
00:16:06,020 --> 00:16:09,240
entrance. At 23 .07 hours the night
before the accident.
290
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:11,920
He reported his car missing the next
morning.
291
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:13,240
Did he say he lost it?
292
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:15,100
No, he thought it was stolen.
293
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:18,180
I think it's time we had a talk with him
again.
294
00:16:18,500 --> 00:16:19,500
It will have to wait, sir.
295
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:23,300
He's scheduled for a last -minute
practice landing in the STA at 0730.
296
00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:27,780
STA? Shuttle Training Aircraft. It's a
G2. Ready to fly like the shuttle. Which
297
00:16:27,780 --> 00:16:28,800
runway? 15.
298
00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:34,560
I think we're good.
299
00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:37,520
Morning, Rav. Lieutenant.
300
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:41,420
What are you doing here so early? I
thought lawyers kept bankers' hours.
301
00:16:41,860 --> 00:16:44,600
You'll have to postpone your flight. You
and I need to have a little chat.
302
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,760
Oh, well, as much as I'd like to do
that, I'm on a strict schedule.
303
00:16:48,260 --> 00:16:50,560
As far as I know, I'm still on this
mission.
304
00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:53,720
I'm supposed to finish this run and then
head back to the pre -launch holding
305
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:56,080
area. You still may not be going
anywhere.
306
00:16:56,340 --> 00:16:57,460
You relaying an order?
307
00:16:58,260 --> 00:16:59,260
Not yet.
308
00:16:59,500 --> 00:17:02,320
Well, do you want to talk to me?
309
00:17:03,470 --> 00:17:08,470
You either head back to the holding area
or you take a ride. It's your choice.
310
00:17:08,910 --> 00:17:10,869
But I have to warn you, it gets a little
rough.
311
00:17:11,069 --> 00:17:13,290
You drop at 250 feet per second.
312
00:17:13,849 --> 00:17:14,849
No problem.
313
00:17:15,250 --> 00:17:17,609
Great. Sir, we're balanced for two.
314
00:17:18,329 --> 00:17:21,810
That's all right, Captain. You take a
break. My pal here will help me out.
315
00:17:22,030 --> 00:17:23,089
Are you serious, sir?
316
00:17:23,410 --> 00:17:25,130
Yeah. You heard what he said.
317
00:17:25,510 --> 00:17:26,790
We have to have a talk.
318
00:17:27,150 --> 00:17:29,070
Yes, sir, but he's not trained on this
aircraft.
319
00:17:29,470 --> 00:17:30,650
Don't you worry about it.
320
00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:33,400
He's the best damn pilot in JAG.
321
00:17:34,380 --> 00:17:35,380
All right.
322
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:36,600
Your call, sir.
323
00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:41,520
You'll have to do the honors on the way
up, Rav.
324
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:43,980
It's not my show till we head down.
325
00:17:45,220 --> 00:17:46,940
Looks like you get a break, too,
Lieutenant.
326
00:17:47,460 --> 00:17:49,860
Farm, I thought you were trying to keep
this from being personal.
327
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:51,880
I'll see you back in line.
328
00:18:04,750 --> 00:18:05,930
45 ,000 feet.
329
00:18:06,550 --> 00:18:07,670
Ring around to 250.
330
00:18:08,290 --> 00:18:09,290
Roger, 250.
331
00:18:17,290 --> 00:18:19,290
You must be clocking a lot of flight
time.
332
00:18:19,630 --> 00:18:20,630
I get my shit.
333
00:18:21,930 --> 00:18:23,290
So what's on your mind?
334
00:18:23,810 --> 00:18:26,810
You neglected to tell me you trained on
lasers for your original mission.
335
00:18:27,850 --> 00:18:29,430
Me and seven other astronauts.
336
00:18:29,950 --> 00:18:33,410
Yeah, but you're the only astronaut
whose stolen access card was used to
337
00:18:33,410 --> 00:18:36,350
the storage facility that housed the
sabotaged cable.
338
00:18:36,910 --> 00:18:40,270
Excuse me? The night before Atkins was
killed.
339
00:18:43,990 --> 00:18:45,550
Somebody might be trying to set me up.
340
00:18:45,870 --> 00:18:46,890
Then who would that be?
341
00:18:47,130 --> 00:18:48,130
I don't know.
342
00:18:48,150 --> 00:18:50,010
Maybe someone who doesn't want to see
the mission go.
343
00:18:50,330 --> 00:18:52,250
I'm finding this very hard to believe.
344
00:18:52,910 --> 00:18:54,350
We both know why.
345
00:18:55,890 --> 00:18:58,650
Look, Mark, regardless of what you might
think,
346
00:18:59,820 --> 00:19:03,240
I really do want to give you the benefit
of the doubt, but things just keep
347
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:04,440
pointing in the wrong direction.
348
00:19:04,780 --> 00:19:09,060
Harm, you know better than anybody how
tough it is to give up a career as a
349
00:19:09,060 --> 00:19:10,060
naval aviator.
350
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:13,420
You did because you had to, but what I
did, I took a big risk.
351
00:19:13,780 --> 00:19:16,820
But I thought it was worth it to get a
shot at outer space, and after five
352
00:19:16,820 --> 00:19:20,160
years, it was looking like I might
actually go.
353
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:24,680
Now you think that I'm going to throw
that away by killing my fellow astronaut
354
00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:26,340
just to jump to the head of the line?
355
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:28,180
I don't think so.
356
00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:35,200
Truth is, it's out of my hands.
357
00:19:35,900 --> 00:19:37,640
You'll probably fly that mission.
358
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:40,060
And I'm going to believe you.
359
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:45,160
If that turns out to be a mistake,
there'll be a squad of MPs waiting at
360
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:46,160
when you land that thing.
361
00:19:47,020 --> 00:19:48,020
Fair enough.
362
00:19:48,980 --> 00:19:50,500
You ready to rock and roll?
363
00:19:51,460 --> 00:19:55,600
She's perverted to rig an aerodynamic
bird like this to fly like an anvil.
364
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:57,840
One of the wonders of modern aerospace.
365
00:19:58,800 --> 00:19:59,800
After the flare.
366
00:20:00,430 --> 00:20:02,750
I'll return control and you take her
around.
367
00:20:03,130 --> 00:20:04,130
Sounds like a plan.
368
00:20:04,910 --> 00:20:08,790
Vandenberg Tower, this is Niner 4 -6,
ready to descend, over.
369
00:20:09,450 --> 00:20:11,510
Roger, Niner 4 -6, clear for approach.
370
00:20:11,890 --> 00:20:13,590
Niner 4 -6, roger.
371
00:20:14,410 --> 00:20:15,870
See you in three minutes.
372
00:20:18,530 --> 00:20:20,450
Get ready to release her.
373
00:20:20,830 --> 00:20:21,950
Simulator engaged.
374
00:20:23,210 --> 00:20:24,370
She's all mine.
375
00:20:25,050 --> 00:20:26,050
You got it.
376
00:20:26,590 --> 00:20:28,150
Main landing gear down.
377
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:40,000
Auto throttle engaged.
378
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:43,800
And reverse thrust.
379
00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:50,960
Auto flight and ADA ads
380
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:51,960
engaged.
381
00:20:52,380 --> 00:20:54,020
Away we go.
382
00:21:03,540 --> 00:21:05,920
You can't make us think I'm a keeper.
383
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:08,120
No, you can't be.
384
00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:11,800
What the hell?
385
00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:13,200
I just lost control.
386
00:21:15,360 --> 00:21:16,360
You're burned, Commander.
387
00:21:16,460 --> 00:21:18,040
What? You're burned.
388
00:21:18,260 --> 00:21:19,260
White side's down.
389
00:21:26,820 --> 00:21:29,560
She's heavy. She won't be as soon as I
get her out of shuttle mode.
390
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:31,320
Shutting down reverse thrust.
391
00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:36,520
Still heavy.
392
00:21:36,860 --> 00:21:39,900
Reverse thrust is stuck open. The whole
system is broke.
393
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:51,160
We can't pull her out.
394
00:21:51,300 --> 00:21:52,300
We've got to jump.
395
00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:54,640
No time for that. Hit the fuel setup,
Bill.
396
00:21:54,980 --> 00:21:57,420
You're going to dead stick it? You can
jump if you want.
397
00:21:59,360 --> 00:22:00,360
Use valve lock.
398
00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:05,200
That's better.
399
00:22:06,220 --> 00:22:07,480
Better call it an emergency.
400
00:22:09,300 --> 00:22:12,400
Vandenberg Tower, Niner 4 -6, declaring
an emergency.
401
00:22:12,660 --> 00:22:15,680
We have no power. I repeat, we have no
power.
402
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:19,080
Right, Niner 4 -6. Emergency vehicles
are rolling.
403
00:22:22,530 --> 00:22:25,370
Run way dead ahead. Well, that's your
choice of words.
404
00:22:25,650 --> 00:22:27,750
We're on a tricycle -geared bird, Har.
405
00:22:29,970 --> 00:22:31,130
Don't get down, please.
406
00:22:31,710 --> 00:22:33,210
Those gears still in the red.
407
00:22:33,670 --> 00:22:34,850
Everything's on shuttle mode.
408
00:22:38,850 --> 00:22:39,850
Manual ready.
409
00:22:40,130 --> 00:22:41,510
It's on your starboard side.
410
00:22:41,750 --> 00:22:42,750
Grab the yoke, Mark.
411
00:22:45,230 --> 00:22:46,690
You got it? I got it.
412
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:26,260
On a scale from 1 to 10, I gave you a 3.
413
00:23:28,180 --> 00:23:29,180
That high?
414
00:23:29,660 --> 00:23:30,660
Yeah.
415
00:23:35,460 --> 00:23:36,460
Colonel,
416
00:23:36,740 --> 00:23:39,640
everything froze. It had to be a
software problem.
417
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:44,800
I want every computer system on that
aircraft picked apart ASAP. They're
418
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:45,459
on it, sir.
419
00:23:45,460 --> 00:23:47,920
Whatever it was, it was meant to look
like another accident.
420
00:23:48,140 --> 00:23:49,140
We'll see, Commander.
421
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:52,900
Sir. It's pretty clear whoever killed
Lieutenant Commander Atkins wanted to
422
00:23:52,900 --> 00:23:56,580
scrub this mission by killing the pilot
and framing the only man who could take
423
00:23:56,580 --> 00:23:57,239
his place.
424
00:23:57,240 --> 00:24:00,900
When that didn't work, they tried to
take him out, too. Six hours ago, you
425
00:24:00,900 --> 00:24:02,960
thought Commander Lowry killed Atkins.
426
00:24:03,180 --> 00:24:05,720
Yes, sir, I considered that a
possibility, but I was wrong.
427
00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:07,080
So who was it this time?
428
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:11,620
Who would want to scrub this launch?
China'd benefit from the satellite going
429
00:24:11,620 --> 00:24:14,400
unreplaced for as long as possible.
They'd have to have someone inside.
430
00:24:14,700 --> 00:24:16,980
This is getting a little far -fetched.
Why?
431
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:21,280
Space technology is a primary defense
element, sir. It's not unreasonable to
432
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:23,440
assume that a foreign power could have
an agent in place.
433
00:24:23,700 --> 00:24:26,400
So what are we going to do? What do you
mean, what are we going to do? You're
434
00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:27,480
going to get some rest, Commander.
435
00:24:27,780 --> 00:24:31,340
You're less than 12 hours away from the
start of a six -day mission. Colonel,
436
00:24:31,460 --> 00:24:34,920
someone has killed one of your
astronauts. They tried a second time
437
00:24:34,940 --> 00:24:38,640
With respect, sir, you can't launch
until we find out who's behind this.
438
00:24:38,980 --> 00:24:42,580
Commander, I appreciate your concern,
but this is not your concern.
439
00:24:43,100 --> 00:24:46,700
That shuttle will be checked and
rechecked before liftoff. It's under
440
00:24:46,700 --> 00:24:49,040
security. The president himself will be
apprised.
441
00:24:49,380 --> 00:24:51,160
The launch is his call.
442
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,780
Then, sir, I'm going to formally
recommend he stand down this mission.
443
00:24:55,060 --> 00:24:58,240
Well, you do what you have to do, but I
don't think it'll affect his decision.
444
00:25:11,450 --> 00:25:12,470
President can't go.
445
00:25:14,150 --> 00:25:16,230
Not without some assurances, I imagine.
446
00:25:16,810 --> 00:25:17,950
Anything from Jack?
447
00:25:18,510 --> 00:25:22,250
FBI did extensive background checks on
everyone with any kind of clearance.
448
00:25:22,490 --> 00:25:23,490
No red flags.
449
00:25:24,090 --> 00:25:25,350
Anything on the FBI?
450
00:25:25,710 --> 00:25:26,710
Not yet.
451
00:25:41,979 --> 00:25:43,300
I don't get nervous.
452
00:25:44,700 --> 00:25:46,060
Mark, I owe you an apology.
453
00:25:46,740 --> 00:25:50,240
You had a lot to worry about prepping
for a mission at the last minute without
454
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:51,940
me lobbing accusations at you.
455
00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:54,200
Just doing your job, Harm.
456
00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:58,500
I shouldn't have said anything about
your ticket being pulled.
457
00:25:59,140 --> 00:26:00,360
I know it wasn't your fault.
458
00:26:01,900 --> 00:26:02,900
Go for it, brother.
459
00:26:03,660 --> 00:26:04,660
You deserve it.
460
00:26:06,140 --> 00:26:07,140
I know.
461
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:16,540
You're right. He is positive.
462
00:26:16,860 --> 00:26:19,900
In his line of work, you have to read
it.
463
00:26:20,140 --> 00:26:22,200
Are you sure you don't want to watch
from outside?
464
00:26:22,500 --> 00:26:25,240
You're going to view it from the video
feed. You might as well watch CNN.
465
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:27,180
I'd rather be in launch control.
466
00:26:27,700 --> 00:26:31,080
Carl, it's out of our hands. They
wouldn't be launching if it wasn't safe.
467
00:26:35,100 --> 00:26:36,760
Colonel Fisher might be right.
468
00:26:37,180 --> 00:26:40,540
We are assuming Atkins' murder was an
attempt to scrub the mission.
469
00:26:40,820 --> 00:26:43,740
There's no other explanation for someone
trying to frame Lowry.
470
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:46,540
Well, how would someone know we'd even
suspect murder?
471
00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:52,020
If Gallant hadn't determined the cable
was cut by a laser, we never would have
472
00:26:52,020 --> 00:26:53,020
suspected Lowry.
473
00:26:53,420 --> 00:26:55,580
Where's Gallant now? Must be in launch
control.
474
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:00,680
That means his lab is free.
475
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:05,300
If he sabotaged the SPA, he'd have had
to have written a program, right?
476
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:07,580
Are you asking me to break into his
computer?
477
00:27:07,940 --> 00:27:08,940
I knew you'd volunteer.
478
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:30,920
Internal systems check completed. Over.
479
00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:38,720
Control to Recovery 1, all systems look
good.
480
00:27:39,060 --> 00:27:41,360
You are T -minus 10 minutes.
481
00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,400
Over. Roger, Control, T -minus 10.
482
00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:47,640
Less than 10 minutes.
483
00:27:47,980 --> 00:27:48,980
How's it coming?
484
00:27:49,100 --> 00:27:50,100
Almost there.
485
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:55,600
I'm in.
486
00:27:56,340 --> 00:27:58,420
Crew, access log retreating.
487
00:28:02,060 --> 00:28:04,940
Control, this is Recovery One. Event
timer started.
488
00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:07,100
Over. Roger, Recovery One.
489
00:28:12,700 --> 00:28:13,340
This
490
00:28:13,340 --> 00:28:20,260
is
491
00:28:20,260 --> 00:28:21,260
interesting.
492
00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:27,100
What? Nothing on the FTA, but Galant
continued to work for the Air Force as a
493
00:28:27,100 --> 00:28:29,560
civilian contractor since SDI was
scrapped.
494
00:28:29,900 --> 00:28:34,200
They were supposed to fund a
superconducting magnetic ion engine he
495
00:28:34,740 --> 00:28:36,720
Thinks it's the key to interplanetary
travel.
496
00:28:37,060 --> 00:28:39,600
Let me guess, it fell prey to defense
cutbacks.
497
00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:41,600
Every year for the past eight years.
498
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:43,580
That would definitely make him
disgruntled.
499
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,720
The exact profile the Chinese would look
for.
500
00:28:47,060 --> 00:28:50,380
They'd scout someone on the inside who
might be unhappy with the situation.
501
00:28:51,370 --> 00:28:53,870
but with the ability and the access to
scrub the mission.
502
00:28:57,150 --> 00:28:58,910
Question is, how far would he go?
503
00:28:59,270 --> 00:29:01,570
You think he'd sabotage the shuttle
itself?
504
00:29:06,090 --> 00:29:07,090
Recovery one.
505
00:29:07,290 --> 00:29:08,750
Initiating main engine gimbal.
506
00:29:12,450 --> 00:29:15,710
Recovery one. Main engine gimbal
complete. Over.
507
00:29:16,090 --> 00:29:18,110
Roger. H2 looks good.
508
00:29:18,410 --> 00:29:19,730
T -minus two minutes.
509
00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:22,320
Go for launch.
510
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:29,520
Sorry, sir, ma 'am. No unauthorized
personnel allowed. Stand aside,
511
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:30,540
need to talk to Colonel Fisher.
512
00:29:30,780 --> 00:29:32,940
We'll have to wait until after the
launch, sir.
513
00:29:34,860 --> 00:29:36,560
That may be too late.
514
00:29:42,380 --> 00:29:43,380
APU is a go.
515
00:29:43,420 --> 00:29:44,680
Switch to onboard computer.
516
00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:47,360
Roger. Switching to onboard computer.
517
00:29:48,670 --> 00:29:52,370
I have to get in there. The shuttle may
be in danger. Stand aside, Sergeant.
518
00:29:52,390 --> 00:29:53,390
Now!
519
00:29:54,070 --> 00:29:55,750
Eight. Seventeen.
520
00:29:56,290 --> 00:29:57,930
Sixteen. Fifteen.
521
00:29:58,150 --> 00:30:00,630
Fourteen. Thirteen. Twelve.
522
00:30:01,010 --> 00:30:02,570
Eleven. Ten.
523
00:30:03,050 --> 00:30:04,630
Nine. Eight.
524
00:30:05,250 --> 00:30:06,730
Seven. Six.
525
00:30:07,250 --> 00:30:11,090
Five. Not now, Commander. Not now.
526
00:30:11,770 --> 00:30:13,150
One. Zero.
527
00:30:13,970 --> 00:30:14,970
SRB ignition.
528
00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:41,960
been cleared. Lift off.
529
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:56,800
120 degree roll into heads down
position. Start.
530
00:30:57,360 --> 00:30:58,400
Roll maneuver complete.
531
00:30:58,640 --> 00:30:59,980
You look good. Recovery one.
532
00:31:00,340 --> 00:31:01,340
Roger. Control.
533
00:31:03,580 --> 00:31:07,780
Main engine at 65 percent. Over. Roger
that. Engineers will investigate.
534
00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:15,600
Step away from your station, Mr.
535
00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:16,800
Gallant.
536
00:31:17,100 --> 00:31:18,100
What's wrong?
537
00:31:18,220 --> 00:31:19,780
Step away from your station.
538
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:25,400
In my office, now.
539
00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:28,960
Recovery one, you've hit max Q. Over.
540
00:32:08,780 --> 00:32:09,780
Roger, we see that.
541
00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:30,000
What are you running from, Mr. DeLotte?
542
00:32:32,180 --> 00:32:33,180
What's the problem, sir?
543
00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:35,080
Arrest this man, Sergeant. Yes, sir.
544
00:32:42,409 --> 00:32:43,409
Biko confirmed.
545
00:32:43,670 --> 00:32:44,670
We're in orbit.
546
00:32:46,590 --> 00:32:48,530
Congratulations, Recovery One.
547
00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:08,740
I found traces of what might have been a
crash program in the array sector's
548
00:33:08,740 --> 00:33:09,740
computer.
549
00:33:09,860 --> 00:33:11,020
It had FDA strings.
550
00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:14,200
Is there any sign he did the same thing
with the actual shuttle systems?
551
00:33:14,420 --> 00:33:15,420
I don't see any.
552
00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:18,240
What did he say, sir? What do you think?
He's innocent.
553
00:33:18,540 --> 00:33:19,540
Yeah, that's why he ran.
554
00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:20,760
Lamjoo frightened him.
555
00:33:21,100 --> 00:33:24,160
He's a civilian, so I got to call the
FBI, see what they want me to do with
556
00:33:24,220 --> 00:33:27,600
Colonel, if he had access to the shuttle
systems, it's still in danger. I
557
00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:30,940
understand that, Commander, but we're
already up there. It's a military
558
00:33:30,980 --> 00:33:33,400
and right now everything is going
strictly by the numbers.
559
00:33:33,700 --> 00:33:34,760
May I have a crack at it?
560
00:33:35,100 --> 00:33:36,840
Be my guest. I have a satellite to fix.
561
00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:46,680
Sorry about that.
562
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:48,000
Does it hurt?
563
00:33:50,420 --> 00:33:51,420
Looks like it hurts.
564
00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:54,220
You're a smart man, Mr. Gallant.
565
00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:55,800
Really smart.
566
00:33:57,060 --> 00:33:58,140
Don't you think so, Lieutenant?
567
00:33:58,960 --> 00:33:59,859
Yes, sir.
568
00:33:59,860 --> 00:34:03,900
I mean, only a smart man like Mr.
Gallant could invent, uh, what is it
569
00:34:04,830 --> 00:34:06,630
Superconducting magnetic ion engine.
570
00:34:07,210 --> 00:34:08,210
Exactly.
571
00:34:09,310 --> 00:34:15,810
Now, what I don't understand is how a
smart, respected man like yourself could
572
00:34:15,810 --> 00:34:16,850
sell out his country.
573
00:34:17,710 --> 00:34:19,130
Is that how you'd put it, Lieutenant?
574
00:34:19,870 --> 00:34:21,130
Something like that, sir.
575
00:34:22,210 --> 00:34:23,489
How much did they pay you?
576
00:34:23,810 --> 00:34:25,070
Nobody paid me anything.
577
00:34:25,469 --> 00:34:26,550
Then why did you do it?
578
00:34:26,870 --> 00:34:27,870
I want a lawyer.
579
00:34:28,210 --> 00:34:29,929
Well, you're in luck. We're both
lawyers.
580
00:34:30,190 --> 00:34:32,730
I have rights. I know I have rights.
581
00:34:33,050 --> 00:34:36,550
Not with the national security of the
United States, a billion -dollar
582
00:34:36,550 --> 00:34:39,690
spacecraft, and four more lives in
danger, you don't.
583
00:34:40,730 --> 00:34:41,730
Is it over?
584
00:34:41,949 --> 00:34:42,949
What?
585
00:34:43,250 --> 00:34:44,790
You're a string of sabotage.
586
00:34:45,690 --> 00:34:47,670
Is something going to happen to the
space shuttle?
587
00:34:59,290 --> 00:35:00,290
All of that.
588
00:35:00,550 --> 00:35:02,070
Okay, Mark, suit it up.
589
00:35:31,470 --> 00:35:32,510
Looking good, Commander.
590
00:35:33,130 --> 00:35:34,130
How are you feeling?
591
00:35:35,290 --> 00:35:36,290
Just groovy.
592
00:35:37,390 --> 00:35:40,150
If something happens, the country will
never forgive you.
593
00:35:40,950 --> 00:35:41,950
I'm a visionary.
594
00:35:42,530 --> 00:35:44,910
I have to look beyond the immediate
future.
595
00:35:45,810 --> 00:35:50,030
What do you mean? You may brand me a
traitor, but history will credit me with
596
00:35:50,030 --> 00:35:52,050
exploration beyond our solar system.
597
00:35:52,430 --> 00:35:55,210
You don't think the military is going to
build your engine now, do you? They
598
00:35:55,210 --> 00:35:56,210
were never going to build it.
599
00:35:56,890 --> 00:35:59,710
There's no funding for anything that
doesn't fit their short -term agenda.
600
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:03,360
Maybe they just knew it would never
work. Oh, it'll work. You'll see.
601
00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:05,820
See? How will we see?
602
00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:09,640
They promised to build your engine for
you, didn't they?
603
00:36:11,020 --> 00:36:13,700
You really think the Chinese are going
to honor that agreement?
604
00:36:14,580 --> 00:36:18,380
The United States isn't the only country
interested in exploring the secrets of
605
00:36:18,380 --> 00:36:19,380
space, Commander.
606
00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:25,640
I need another five or six degrees to
the right.
607
00:36:25,900 --> 00:36:26,900
You got it.
608
00:36:48,590 --> 00:36:53,350
understand you're an aerospace engineer
how can you destroy the space shuttle i
609
00:36:53,350 --> 00:36:57,810
never said i'd destroy it i gave my life
to this program then what are you
610
00:36:57,810 --> 00:37:04,370
planning to do china just doesn't want
the satellite fixed maybe mr gallant
611
00:37:04,370 --> 00:37:06,830
found a way to prevent that without
destroying the shuttle
612
00:37:24,230 --> 00:37:26,570
I can't fix it if they can't grab it,
can they, Mr. Galant?
613
00:37:32,890 --> 00:37:34,250
Colonel, he's got to stop.
614
00:37:34,590 --> 00:37:38,170
Why? If he attempts to grab that
satellite, there'll be a major
615
00:37:38,590 --> 00:37:39,590
What kind of malfunction?
616
00:37:39,790 --> 00:37:42,250
I'll explain. Just tell him to stop now,
sir.
617
00:37:46,070 --> 00:37:47,110
Almost have it.
618
00:37:50,810 --> 00:37:52,590
Tell him to wait.
619
00:37:53,580 --> 00:37:54,800
Recovery One, this is Control.
620
00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:59,360
Have Lieutenant Commander Laurie stand
by. Repeat, hold on satellite capture.
621
00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:01,840
Roger that, Control.
622
00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:03,840
Mark, you need to hold on a second.
623
00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:08,080
What? Control needs you to hold on
satellite capture and stand by.
624
00:38:08,900 --> 00:38:10,700
Got it. Standing by, Control.
625
00:38:12,260 --> 00:38:15,140
Delon made a deal with the Chinese
government to prevent the recovery of
626
00:38:15,140 --> 00:38:16,140
satellite, sir.
627
00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:19,780
I think he may have sabotaged part of
the capture mechanism days before the
628
00:38:19,780 --> 00:38:21,040
launch as a backup plan.
629
00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:24,520
Is there a problem anywhere, Mr. Tang?
630
00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:27,760
No, sir.
631
00:38:27,980 --> 00:38:30,460
Sir, do you remember when Lieutenant
Austin and I first arrived?
632
00:38:30,860 --> 00:38:33,940
Gallant approached you and informed you
he'd made repairs to the capture
633
00:38:33,940 --> 00:38:37,700
mechanism. Yes, he went out onto the
launch pad to fix a calibration problem.
634
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:39,980
Or sabotage it, sir.
635
00:38:42,020 --> 00:38:48,860
Recovery one to control. What's the
problem?
636
00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:49,920
Over.
637
00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:51,580
Stand by, recovery one.
638
00:38:54,890 --> 00:38:57,550
How would he sabotage it? I don't know,
sir.
639
00:38:57,810 --> 00:38:59,290
It might be the locking device.
640
00:39:00,030 --> 00:39:03,370
It's the logical choice. He might have
used it to set some kind of charge that
641
00:39:03,370 --> 00:39:04,370
would destroy the satellite.
642
00:39:05,850 --> 00:39:07,410
Sir, he's in position now.
643
00:39:12,130 --> 00:39:15,810
Tell them to move Lowry away from the
satellite and test the grappling
644
00:39:16,210 --> 00:39:17,210
Sir?
645
00:39:18,350 --> 00:39:19,390
You heard me, Captain.
646
00:39:19,730 --> 00:39:20,730
Yes, sir.
647
00:39:21,190 --> 00:39:22,410
Recovery 1, this is Control.
648
00:39:23,020 --> 00:39:26,960
Turn Lieutenant Commander Lowry away
from the satellite for a test firing of
649
00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:27,919
grappling trigger.
650
00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:29,360
Roger that, Control. Over.
651
00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:34,020
Mark, we need to move you. Control wants
us to test fire the grappling trigger
652
00:39:34,020 --> 00:39:35,460
facing away from the satellite.
653
00:39:35,860 --> 00:39:36,880
Did they say a why?
654
00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:40,620
Control, Commander Lowry is inquiring on
the reason for that. Over.
655
00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:42,760
Stand by, Recovery One.
656
00:39:43,380 --> 00:39:45,480
What do I tell him, sir? It's an open
channel.
657
00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:50,400
Commander Ramp.
658
00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:57,140
Tell him the same person who modified
the STA prepped the capture bar.
659
00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:05,560
Recovery 1, this is Control. Tell him
Lieutenant Commander Rav said the person
660
00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:10,220
who modified the STA also prepped the
capture bar. Over. Roger that, Control.
661
00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:11,400
Over.
662
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:15,760
Mark, you know the guy who's responsible
for your STA problems?
663
00:40:16,100 --> 00:40:17,620
I hope not personally.
664
00:40:18,020 --> 00:40:21,320
Lieutenant Commander Rav thinks he may
have done something to the capture bar.
665
00:40:36,650 --> 00:40:37,650
from the satellite now.
666
00:40:46,010 --> 00:40:47,890
Testing grappling trigger now.
667
00:41:02,410 --> 00:41:03,630
Carver 1, this is Control.
668
00:41:03,910 --> 00:41:04,910
What's your status?
669
00:41:07,180 --> 00:41:10,400
What's your status, Recovery One? The
ticket may have been in an explosive
670
00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:11,400
vault, over.
671
00:41:11,460 --> 00:41:13,000
What about Lieutenant Commander Lowry?
672
00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:16,220
He's a little shaken, but he's all
right. He wants to know if Lieutenant
673
00:41:16,220 --> 00:41:17,360
Commander Rabb is there.
674
00:41:18,060 --> 00:41:19,060
That's affirmative.
675
00:41:19,700 --> 00:41:21,440
He says thanks for the tip, Commander.
676
00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:25,380
Okay, people, we have no capture bar.
677
00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:27,820
How the hell do we get that satellite
back?
678
00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:35,020
Colonel, can't you just get a few more
people out there?
679
00:41:36,149 --> 00:41:37,149
Grab it.
680
00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:29,740
Okay, people, let's get down to the
business of fixing it.
681
00:42:30,060 --> 00:42:31,820
Commander, thank you. Yes, sir.
682
00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:34,800
Lieutenant, we'll take it from here.
683
00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:37,780
Recovery one, this is control.
684
00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:39,560
Roger, control.
685
00:42:40,220 --> 00:42:42,320
Kind of pretty, isn't it?
686
00:42:43,220 --> 00:42:46,240
Pretty as the view catapulting off an
aircraft carrier, sir.
687
00:42:47,140 --> 00:42:48,840
In its own way, I guess.
688
00:42:49,620 --> 00:42:50,740
Still have time, sir.
689
00:42:51,380 --> 00:42:52,900
First lawyer in space, maybe?
690
00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:19,640
Maybe.
