[adventurous electronic music] NEWS ANCHOR: Welcome back. We are live from the
Udo, approaching Mars. Happy new year, all
you lovely earthlets. Ada Gray here. Science officer of the Udo. I got some questions I’m gonna
answer about astronauts, so let’s dive in. [serene music] Hell of a hat. John %*#ing Wayne. Hi ho silver. [laughs softly]
That’s the Lone Ranger. John Wayne is not
the Lone Ranger? Oh, parle-vous francais? MITCH: Give me a hand here. [inhales, exhales deeply]
Tang. I hate Tang. Mitch loves it. [serene music] [grunts] You’re not, uh– not gonna be going all hot
and heavy on that French the whole time, are you? Shut up, Mitch. Uh, so is it
Mitchell or Mitch? Mitch The %*#. I will not be
calling you that. We got fruit juices, coffee– Durand loves coffee– and tea. That’s me. Next question. OK, so– [sighs]
long-term goals. Brightstar is committed to
large-scale terraforming over the next 50 years. And Ceres is the first
step in that goal. Next question. OK. Brightstar is a
private organization. There is no military or
government backing at all. These morale things are %*#⚫️. ADA: But it isn’t. That’s the point. [scoffs] Yeah, can’t
say I’m gonna miss it. ADA: Per %*#ing usual. How long have you
worked together? MITCH: Yeah, what is it, Ada? Is this 12 missions? 13, and you’re still a %*#. Oh, beta. God, she is such a treat. Better than a colonoscopy. MITCH: Yeah, barely. I did not know
Americans still smoke. Today is all about
the vices, my friend. Yeah, before
that recycled air. Chop chop, team! Double time! The speak of the devil. Merci. So how do you know French? I know a lot of things. That’s my weapon. Weapon? My brain. I did not know it was a fight. Sometimes a skirmish,
sometimes a total %*#ing war, but yeah, a fight. Word on the street is, uh,
you’re a damn good pilot. Pretty good. Married? The skin’s a different color. [chuckles] All right. You guys are getting
down to the nitty gritty. All right. So yeah, we are in an EVA 10
to 12 hours outside the craft. [sighs] So yeah,
it’s a necessity. The artificial gravity makes
the physics a little bit easier inside the Udo. And then, well, we drink it. Ta-da. OK, so water works a bit
differently in space. It’s like a gooey substance. It sticks to your skin. So if you were to
break down in tears, your eyes would just
swell up with water instead of dropping off. [serene music] Left the ring with Zara. My wife. Zara. That’s a pretty name. Every mission
I leave the ring. It means more to her, I think. Ceres is the largest
of the dwarf planets. It lies between
Mars and Jupiter. And since it’s a
little closer to Mars, it makes interstellar
travel pretty easy, though Vesta was
a good runner up. There is more water
on Ceres than there is fresh water on Earth. With our seeding,
the air will be breathable in about two years. I haven’t heard anything
about the Fengyuan team, but regardless, series is
big enough for both of us. Trés bel. Beautiful. Yeah, good old Earth. Pretty good template. Home. Not for long. There’s our new digs. Why are they
called Joshua trees? Seem to be doing a lot of
talking to that French flyboy. You guys are gonna get along
like a bunch of roosters. Name was given by the Mormons. The trees reminded
’em of Joshua, reaching his hands
up towards heaven. So what do you think of us? What do you mean? Us. The crew. The dynamic. It’s gonna be
perfect, Commander. There are, in fact. Each of us gets
what’s called a CRV– a return vehicle. They’re effective at about
330 kilometers above Earth. Given we’re going 330
million kilometers, yeah, they’re pretty
much dead weight. Then there’s Mitch. Brightstar wants Mitch. They always want Mitch. You let me worry about Mitch. Mitch! Everybody, grab hands. We’re gonna do
this retreat right. MITCH: That’s so %*#. Mitch! [dramatic music] ALL: [cheering] [shrill music] TOMCAT (ON RADIO): Control,
that is a beautiful sight. CONTROL (ON RADIO):
Copy, Tomcat. Ring in the new year. TOMCAT (ON RADIO):
Ring-a-ding-ding. CONTROL (ON RADIO):
70% down bubble. I should check. Red Book 1. PHIL (ON RADIO): OK. We are in Red Book 1. CONTROL (ON RADIO):
Copy that, Phil. How’s that Marsian weather? PHIL (ON RADIO): Wouldn’t
go out without sunblock. Tomcat, how long
till the thrusters? Hour and 10, sir. Copy that. Please go get Evan. Will do. We’re an hour out. Hey, Zara. Oui. OK. All right. We’re officially in Red Book 1. Thrust happens at 13:20. That’ll put us in the Corridor. Evan, I’m gonna need a
run down on your rates. Yes, sir. How’s Zara? Give her a kiss for me? CREW: [laughing] You should be lucky. PHIL: How’s the
debris field looking? Some dusting. We can handle it. PHIL: Tomcat. TOMCAT: Yo. PHIL: Gonna need
your stamp on this. TOMCAT: Already done, sir. PHIL: Good. What’s the time? 12:12, sir. Evan? Uh, oui. 12:12. 12:12 and what? Uh, 30 seconds. Mitch? Uh, same. And the seconds? Ugh. Uh, 28, sir. [scoffs] Mitch, what the %*#? What? Well done. All right, all right. Everyone, settle down. This one’s by the books. Every step. There’s gonna be a
quick burst of plasma energy from the VASIMR engine. Don’t %*# with that. I’m gonna need you
to be on your toes. You do this right, we’ll
see series in a month. Yeah. That’s good. PHIL (ON RADIO): Control, Udo
is 1,270 nautical miles out of Jakarta. Preparing to shift course. CONTROL (ON RADIO): Copy, Udo. You’re a go for course correct. Copy that. Velocity is at 6,000, Phil. 120 feet per second. Flight, go for
forward thrusters. Count on to
thrusters on my mark. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, mark. [alarm sounding] [alarm sounding] [alarm sounding] [thrusters roaring] [white noise] Delete Auto RCS, jet
select, main A and B. Pick this up in the procedure
for existing PTC, that’s in your CSM checklist. We’re in the lane. Velocity decrease now
at 3,230 feet per second. Outstanding. ADA (ON COMM): Nice work flight. [french] Champagne is on me. ALL: (SINGING) Happy
birthday to you Happy birthday to you [horn blows] Happy birthday,
dear Mitch The %*# Happy birthday to you And many more Happy birthday! MITCH: Thanks, guys. PHIL: Blow ’em out. There we go. There we go. Oh, yeah. Come on. Got it. Come on. [cheers] Outstanding. Thank you. Oh, you sons of %*#es. What can we say, we’re saints. Red velvet. I love it. Hey, hey, yeah, I’m
gonna get the rum cake. Rum cake for the rummy. That’s right. Let’s dig in, everybody! Come on. I don’t want any. [music playing] (SINGING) There’s no
place that I’d rather be Than here in this
moment with you (SINGING) Here in
this moment with you The sky is a sparkling sea And we’re sailing a
course straight and true What is it? [non-english] It’s so old. What are you gonna do? Start hobbling around
on your walker? Hey, hey. I heard that. Don’t be knocking the
Joshua Tree Song, OK? That takes me back there. Besides, it kind of
reminds me of Dylan. ADA: Who? TOMCAT: Bob Dylan. ADA: I don’t know what
you’re talking about. Bob Dylan was one of the
most influential songwriters in folk and country, rock. 60s, 70s, 80s, and beyond. ADA: All right. That was before my time. Oh. Ever heard of the Beatles? Of course I’ve
heard of the Beatles. TOMCAT: Well, they were before
your time, too, weren’t they? OK, stop ragging on me. Saw Bob Dylan’s Farewell tour. Right before he died. Amazing, man. Poetic genius. ADA: I can respect a genius. You know what? You got a lot to learn. And I’m just the
guy to teach you. [laughter] Someday I’m gonna play
you my vinyl collection. Then you’ll see what
you’ve been missing. I’d like that, Tomcat. (SINGING) So gather
round, my friends And never tell me that
this night is over ‘Cause there is not one thing We can do wrong while we’re
singing a Joshua Tree Song How are you playing this? Right here, next to my heart. Original nanite, first
gen, single cell. I still got all my old mixes. All right, you got me. This %*#⚫️ is beautiful. Old %*#⚫️ is beautiful. Hey, are you ready for your
little educational tutorial you’re doing there? Before the blackout? Yeah. I know what I’m going to say. You on the vid-com? Yep, I’m up. I’m going to talk
to my grandkid. Her name’s Emily. She’s actually a lot like you. Poor girl. She’s into planets
and planets too, huh? Yeah, kind of. Takes after her mom and my wife. Oh, wow. How long have you been married? TOMCAT: 40 years. Wow. TOMCAT: Yeah. When are your wedding
bells, little girl? Hell, no. Marriage is a
superstition like God. [chuckles] OK, I guess
it’s not for everybody. So, uh, what’s
your wife’s name? Emily. That’s her name and my
granddaughter’s name. Kind of a family name. Well, give Emilys my best. I’ll do that. Hey, you think it’s going to
be hard, the, uh, blackout? No. We did it in the simulator
and the moon’s far side. Yeah, that was
two days, though. We’re talking months now. I don’t got anyone to talk to. TOMCAT: You can talk to me, Ada. I’ll get that. Oh, thanks. So, uh, what’s
Pennsylvania like? Oh, you’ve never been? Oh, hell no. The closest I’ve been is DC. TOMCAT: Why’d you
say it like that? Like what? TOMCAT: Like you just
threw up in your mouth. No, I didn’t. TOMCAT: Hey, I’m just playing. Don’t %*# with me. So it’s just like
farms and stuff? Yeah, basically. Actually grew up
next to Gettysburg. Hmm. So you saw the old graves. TOMCAT: Oh, yeah. I saw the ghost, too. [chuckles] %*#. Not into parapsychology? That’s not a thing. Oh, really? Astrobiology. Some people would
say that’s %*#, looking at far off places and
just guessing what’s out there. That’s different. How is it different? Totally different. spook hunters are
a junk science. I’m about evidence. Oh, right. What about little green men? Evidence, Tomcat, evidence. I like you, but you are
a %*# of a nut to crack. Why thank you. You like the challenge. I, um– I got to take more things
on faith from now on. My wife just died, you see. Oh, Tomcat. I’m so sorry. Well, thank you. It’s OK, believe me. We knew for a long time,
and I wanted to stay, but me going was– was her wish. She knew how important this was. But at least we got
to see each other off. Yeah. What I saw, the, uh– the ghost,
the soldiers, their faces, it was probably just a
silly kid’s imagination, but you got to admit, hurtling
through the black in a ship the shape of a coffin, you– hard not to feel a– a kinship somehow. [non-english speech] Lola. Lola, oh. Lola. Lola. [non-english speech] Gonna use the cell prototype
for the presentation tomorrow. Do not let Mitch step on you. [chuckles] Nah. You know me. How’s Zara? You know Tomcat was
married for 40 years? Just know, 100% I
couldn’t do that. MITCH: Am I good? ADA: Yeah, OK, we’re live. Come on. Oh. Hey, so I’m Mitch Poe. Uh, I am the Payload
Commander here aboard The Udo. [chuckles] And what
that means is I’m in charge of all
of the equipment we’re going to need
on the Ceres project and getting it there safely. So right now, my
colleague, Dr. Gray and I are going to take you on
a little tour of the Ceres project. ADA: I got a sample of the cell. No, no. First, I would love to just
talk about the infrastructure. Oh, Yes. I am going to tell you all about
the very radical infrastructure we have onboard in great detail. Hey, Papa. I’m wearing the dress. You look pretty as
a picture postcard. Is your mommy around? She’s talking to the preacher. They got Grammy in
the coffin up front. Yeah, I know. Don’t be scared, OK? Still Grammy, always will be. [crying] Hey. Hey, come on now. I need you to be strong
for me, OK, kiddo? Deal? OK, deal. All right. these, uh– these
pipes you see running up behind me right here, they
each contain a membrane, and each one of those membranes
has a self-heating carbon nanotube, and they run the
entire length of the ship, both inside and out. Now, where we’re landing, that
is called the Occator Crater. Uh, it’s kilometers, which is– Ada? Too slow, 56 miles wide. [chuckles] She’s
the math one, too. It’s the brightest spot. ADA: It is bright
because it is made out of hydrated magnesium sulfate. Yep. So what that
translates to is it’s the same stuff that makes
up like Epson salt. OK? And these nanotubes,
they are going to extract a livable
amount of water from that salt within
the Occator Crater. Water is just one
half of the equation. For the other half,
we have here– hold the camera. Oh, you’re going love
this, we call it the cell. OK? Oh, you grabbed it ’cause
you want to talk about it, or should I? First time I saw
a dead body, I was– I was about your age. It’s just– it’s
just what happens. But you are way
stronger than I was. Really? No, really. And someday you’re going to
be plowing a Ceresian field. I’m going to be kicking
back with a big stogie and a fine scotch. OK, each of these,
what we call cells, contain millions of nanites. And they’re each fitted
with an AI processor. That’s, uh– that’s
artificial intelligence. Right. These little guys are going to
be the key to converting the air and raising the temperature. That’s right. Uh, OK. Um, great. Well, it looks like
we’re about to go out of range of our last
satellite pretty soon. So, uh, I guess we’re headed
into a 14 month blackout. Um, it’s going to
be a heck of a year. Uh, so Ada, get in here. From everyone here, from
the whole crew of The Udo. Ah, we wish you– [ship reverberating] Hey, you’re up. Do you hear that? What? I think it’s
affecting the grav pull. What are you talking about? There, it’s– there’s
like this low moan. I don’t hear anything. Check this out. There’s a discrepancy in
the gravitational pull of the payload. I mean, it’s so minor,
it’s barely even a blip. There shouldn’t
be any discrepancy. How did you miss that? OK, Come on. Control has been pouring over
these calculations for years. OK, it’s probably just a
bump in the artificial grav from after the last burn. We need another. OK, I think
that’s overreacting. Torque could rip the
casing loose, Mitch. Oh, my God, it’s just a blip! ADA: Control isn’t responding. I’ll have to report this
to Phil in the morning. OK, wait. What are we talking
about here, huh? What are we really
talking about? Back the %*# off. Come on. Want a little something. Stop. A little something
for the birthday boy? Stop! Think for a second. It’ll be, what? 10, 15 seconds tops? I thought you
were good at math. Followed by two
years and 36 days of inefficient, passive
aggressive power plays. It would be
subterfuge all around. You’ll say dumb %*#
things, and I won’t listen to a single order you give. The psychological dynamic
of the crew, the mission, it would be %*#ed. Might even cause
micro-perturbation in your sleep cycle, which could cause a
serious accident down the line. You might even be killed. All because you just
didn’t rub one out. Are you threatening me? TOMCAT: Mitch! Good night. Guess everyone’s
%*#ed tonight. Hey. Goodnight, kiddo. [groans] [non-english speech] Mitch The %*#. Knew this would happen. As soon as we go dark, you
and Mitch start butting heads. I was just looking over data. Same thing happened
in the simulator. And the lunar test,
you get scared. ADA: Focused. It’s different for me. I start missing Zara, turn
into a goddamn love dove. You know you can
control that, right? Oh, how so? Love, affection, %*#. Just chemical
processes in the brain based on the firing of
neurons connected to smells. Pheromones. Hormones. It can all be controlled. I cannot compartmentalize. You just don’t want to. No, I do not. This ship, the mission, outer
space, it is not all for me, like it is for you. Yeah, you made that clear. This is all just
an experiment, hey? You push the abort button on
anything that gets in the way. So single minded. Damn. I wanted your child. [hard breathing] [moaning] Good idea, Ada. So what do we do? I don’t want to risk anything
just because some of us don’t want to do the math. And I would love it marked
down that none of this is necessary. Totally fair, Mitch. PHIL: Whether it’s something
Ada, or nothing Mitch, we’re going to do a
short RCS at 0800, that’ll relieve the torque. Are you willing to
stand by that, doctor? Yes, sir. It’s slide rule
time, boys and girls. Mains A and B. Vector five. Copy. Attitude adjusted. Feeding velocity now. EVAN: Earl gray for Dr. Gray. TOMCAT: Hey, you got one for me? EVAN: Certainly, coffee, black. Perfect. Like Satan’s soul. [chuckles] Flight go for forward thrust. [thrusters roaring] Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Stand by Flight. %*# is that? PHIL: What’s wrong? Are you seeing this? PHIL (ON COMM): Flight we’re
reading an anomaly in space. What? Copy. Command, can you specify? Copy that Flight. Roll your tracks to 56.69er. Tell me what you see. Holy %*#⚫️. Wait. Is that– Stand by Command. Let me run a diagnostic. Copy that Flight. Please let me know if
that’s what I think it is. So, um, who here
speaks Mandarin? %*#⚫️. No. Oh, you got to be kidding. How come Control
didn’t know about this? –they are not lying. ADA: The report said– Right down to the
screws on the casing. I am positive there
is a ship out there. Was that all %*#? All right! Just calm down, all right? Who cares how it happened? It happened. Boys and girls, that
is the new normal. So now that our cheese has
been moved, get over it. Evan, I’m going to need you
to get with Mitch on this one. We’re going to do
a course correct. Bring The Udo into short
range communication. MITCH: No, sir. How’s that? I’m– I’m still concerned
about this torque stress. Oh, so now you’re
%*#ing worried? PHIL: Oh, now’s not the time. Plus I don’t know what kind
of gravity that ship is pulling. PHIL: Do the math. Work the problem. We don’t have the fuel. PHIL: We have the reserves. And I don’t think– PHIL: We’re going to
talk to the Chinese. I think that’s a bad idea. PHIL: Whether you
like it or not, we’re going to be
their neighbors, so we’ll start by offering
them the cup of sugar. Who the hell has my gum? [non-english speech] MITCH: What? Did you say something to me? [non-english speech] OK. Hey, could you guys
not talk in French when I’m trying to
run the numbers, OK? I don’t know if
you’re talking to me. I don’t understand
what you’re saying. Sorry. [white noise] Switch on. And basically, we are
draining about 75% from pod one for the reserve. 73.3. Right. So what’s Phil’s
reasoning here? Precaution. He does not want any of the pod
to be completely without fuel. Uh, only draining about 33% from
this one, and all the coolant. Well, it doesn’t really
matter, though, does it? EVAN: Never know
what could happen. [signal blaring] Oh. [sighs] [chuckles] Just the fuel sign. Do not worry, you
can override it. You son of a %*#. You knew that was
going to happen. Boo. All right, we are go
for course in 13 hours. Roger. Course correct 0900. [sighs] Hell of a
time to be working. Hey, you want one? PHIL: Yeah, what do you got? I got uh, marshmallow
and a brown one. What’s the brown one? %*#⚫️ flavored, for all I know. Yeah, I’ll take
the marshmallow. Mm. 5,000. What? 5,000. That’s the magic number. What do you mean? We’ve logged 5,000
hours, Tomcat, you and me. Come Monday, I’ve flown
with you more than anyone. No %*#⚫️. Yep. Hasn’t gotten any easier. [chuckles] %*# you, Phil. You know, I should be
sitting in that chair. There’s the Tomcat I know. Cheers, buddy. Hey, man, I’m
sorry about Emily. Thank you. We’re a couple of old guys. Hey, speak for yourself. Younger than the Big Bang. Well, that’s
something, I suppose. Yet here we are. The old %*#s, right? We’re the pioneers. Isn’t it supposed
to be the kids? It’s bass ackwards. Yeah, I’ll tell you
what’s bass ackwards, Britney Spears getting Medicare. [chuckles] Like I said,
we’re Big Bang young. Yeah. Thank God for that, huh? Thank %*#ing Christ. Thank God for Emily. PHIL: The other one,
the other Emily? Yeah, my grandkid. She’s great. She’s going to be all right. They’re all going to be all
right, once we get Ceres up and running. Do you think they’re
going to be grateful? [chuckles] Right, not a
snowball’s chance in hell of that. Cheers to that. Hey, Phil, you never had
anybody on the vid-com back home, just like last time. There is no one back home. You know that, Tom. It’s all out there
in front of me. It’s always been enough. It’s not all doom and gloom. There’s kiddos like Ada. Yeah, the doctor is something. She’s like a quantum computer. Hey, don’t worry,
it’s a compliment. ADA: So we a go? TOMCAT: We’re a go. 0900. ADA: Mitch will have
all the numbers up and running provided
he’s, uh, juiced up. Hey, I’m going to need
Evans debris report? Uh, why don’t
you join Evan now? On it, boss. I, uh– I have to apologize. For what? For what I just
said about you. OK. PHIL: Called you a
quantum computer. [scoffs] Thanks. I am. Yeah, it was just
the tone I used. Phil, I know what
you’re going to say. Sorry I’m just– I’m no good at this. You’re thinking we
got a year until control will be watching us. You know your work so
far has been exemplary. Really, your work in general
is genius, you know that. It’s not the worst
job in the world. I like it. You mean saving
the human race? Something like that. It’s better than
what my mom did. Oh, yeah? What’d she do? Divorces. Ah. I know what you mean. My old man skipped out
on us when we were 10. Sir, you’re not gonna kiss me
or something like that, are you? No. No, of course not. Thank you, sir. You saved me a lot of paperwork. You’re welcome. Command, you are on course. Time to communication
range, one minute. Copy Flight. Gray, I’m gonna need
that translation. I’m going to need you
to read it out for me. I have the
pronunciation right here. [speaking mandarin] They, hold. Continue. [speaking mandarin] Which means this is
Brightstar, Udo Terraformation calling in friendship. PHIL (ON COMM): Copy that. Second phrase. [speaking mandarin] Which
means, could we please open a line of communication? Last phrase [speaking mandarin] OK, that one I know. Thank you. And just remember to
bow when you say it. PHIL: Racist. OK, Evan, where are we at? 10 seconds, 9, 8. Tomcat, put us
on the frequency. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2. [speaking mandarin] MITCH (ON COMM): Command. Yeah, go ahead, Mitch. Maybe it’s unmanned. You mean a satellite? Yeah, maybe a rover. PHIL (ON COMM): Don’t think so. Why not? Look at the size
of that thing. That is a big son of a %*#. And look, I see– I see oxygen, nitrogen
tanks on the front hold. No. Whoever it is, there’s
definitely somebody on there. This is commander
Phil King of The Udo. The Brightstar
Terraformation project. Oh, my God. PHIL (ON COMM): Please respond. What the %*# is that? EVAN: Looks like it is venting. Phil, there’s some kind of
gas emitting from that thing. PHIL (ON COMM): Flight, give us
a forward thrust, back us off. Sir, what about the torque? PHIL (ON COMM): Yes, doctor,
I’m well aware that– MITCH (ON COMM): He knows
about the goddamn torque. This thing doesn’t
stop on a dime, all right, everyone
just calm down. Flight, where are
those calculations? I need a sustained burn. Why? Give it a wide berth. Jesus. There is a lot of debris. Looks like the whole
front is coming off. I need that thrust now. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. [thrusters roaring] %*#! Flight, what’s
the time on that? Two more seconds. What is that? You hear that? Goddammit! What is that? Helmets on, immediately. Possible hydrazine leak. Everybody zip up! [signals blaring] Mitch, do you see this? EVAN: 10, 9 ADA: In the debris. 5, 4. It’s our nanites. They got our nanites! 2, 1. Shut down. [sighs] [explosion] %*# is going
on back there, Flight? Torque! Sending us into cavitation. I knew it. Goddammit, that’s
a rupture warning. That’s not going to happen. Mitch, sit your %*#
down back there. You were right. Now put that on. PHIL: Mitch! Ada! Ada, sit down. Ada, sit down! Flight, I need
those stabilizers. Stabilizers on. Gonna need a damage report
on that debris shower. Figure out what it was. Everyone strapped
down back there? Mitch is injured. %*#⚫️. All right, I’m
coming back there. Tom, log all the coordinates. Lock us down. Copy. PHIL: And get your helmet on. I want to know if we
got a hydrazine leak. All right, sir. Phil, I’m– I’m sorry. Yeah. Sorry. Yeah. Me too. Uh, first we got to
figure out what to do. Evan, I say we do a
course correct back into satellite range and
send a message to Control. Impossible, not enough fuel. So siphon more from the pods. ADA: It gets worse. You’re saying you got this
reading from the other ship? Yes, sir, as soon
as the debris hit. Familiar configuration,
isn’t it? You’re kidding. Like I said, those
are our nanites. MITCH: That doesn’t
make any sense. It’s not just a similar AI. It’s exactly the same. OK, OK. So– so you think that
the Chinese stole it? Yeah. Yeah. %*#, %*#⚫️. I wouldn’t be surprised. I’ve told you. Brightstar’s full
of %*#ing spies. I told you the whole time. Yeah, OK. Now’s not the time
to drag it up. [signals humming] MITCH: What is that? I don’t know. Evan, how are you doing
on the debris field? Come on, Flight, talk to me! EVAN: I don’t
know, it’s strange. ADA: What was that? PHIL: Looks like something to
do with the aft pressure valve. I’m on it. PHIL: No, I got it, I got it. Just get– get the
fuel from the pods. [screams] [beeping] [crashing] [hard breathing] Oh, goddam. Oh, God. Where’s that %*#ing com? %*#, where’s that–
where’s that %*#ing com? Oh, %*#. Oh. 12, 12, 12, 12, 12. 12. Mitch. Evan. Anybody, can you hear me? Anybody out there, can
you hear me, please? 12, 14, 14. 14. Evan? Tomcat. Mitch, anyone,
are you out there? [non-english speech] Who is it? Hello. Who are you? Are you Chinese? MITCH (ON COMM): Jesus Christ. Ada, Ada, Ada, can you hear me? Is that you? Mitch! Mitch, Mitch! Mitch, yeah, yeah. You’re coming in. Are you OK? MITCH (ON COMM): Oh, %*#
no, but I got into three. Pod three? MITCH (ON COMM): Yeah, yeah. What channel– what
channel are we on? 14. MITCH (ON COMM): Go to 12. Somebody might be
wanting to get in touch. I tried that. MITCH (ON COMM): Yeah,
we’ll try it again. Ada, Ada, can you see me? Hey. Yeah, yeah, you’re patched in. You see me? Uh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah, I got you, I got you. Uh, it’s sort of. I mean, you’re you’re
freezing, but– %*#⚫️. Going out of range. Can you– TOMCAT (ON COMM): Anyone? Yeah. TOMCAT (ON COMM): Anyone there? Copy. I’m reading you. Who is this? TOMCAT (ON COMM):
It’s Tom, Tomcat. Tomcat. TOMCAT (ON COMM): I– I can’t. Tomcat, you made it. You’re alive. Where are you? Tomcat, listen to me. I think maybe I can– Dammit! %*#⚫️! %*#! %*#! Where is he? Where– OK, OK. Tomcat. Tomcat, if you can hear me. The Udo was on route
40 by 40 by 23. Each pod launched at
30 degrees down bubble. If you got thrust. Tomcat. Tomcat, use your thrust
to slow down and pitch, pitch a complete 90. 90 degrees. 90 degrees to the left. To the left. Tomcat, to the left. Can you hear me, Tomcat? Please, respond! Tomcat, just turn left. It’s just 90 degrees. Turn left, OK? You’ll bump right into me. Come be my neighbor, Tomcat. TOMCAT (ON COMM):
Hey, neighbor– borrow a cup of sugar? Tomcat! Oh, thank God. Tomcat. Get me on the vid-com. Take a bearing range. I don’t want us to bump. TOMCAT (ON COMM):
Where am I going? Where the %*# am I– To the left. 90 degrees to the left. TOMCAT (ON COMM): Just
a left, are you sure? 90 degrees to
the %*#ing left. It’s simple. TOMCAT (ON COMM):
Gotcha, darling. OK. I’m going to go to channel 14. I’m going to get Mitch. MITCH (ON COMM): Oh,
don’t worry about Mitch. Mitch? Hey, beautiful. I’m guessing 12 is the
official party line? Mitch, what happened? Mitch. Mitch, are you there? Uh, I– yeah. I just– I think, uh– I think, uh, the
range is the problem. I’m, uh– I’m drifting away. You’re going to be OK. You’re in 3, right? Was that right or left of me? I– I don’t know,
I don’t %*#ing know. Come on. OK. What– what one are you in? %*#⚫️. What? What? What? I’m in one. So? Jesus Christ! %*#! Can you hear me? I’m close. Perfectly. Got you on my monitor. Better decelerate. Thrusters use a lot of fuel. I got to use them sparingly. Mitch, do you have thrusters? Oh, what the %*#
does it matter now? Come on, Mitch. Find your thrusters, Mitch. Now we’re all
%*#ing corpses now. Hey! Mitch. Hey! Mitch, do you have thrusters? I don’t know. Calm down, look
around, breathe. Find your thrusters, Mitch. %*#! Mitch! Tomcat, we’re losing him. Yeah, I see that. Mitch, get your
head in the game. Mitch, Tomcat was on my left. You were on Tomcat’s left. That’s a 90 degree turn. Do a sustained burn
for twice as long. 40 seconds. 40 seconds burn, Mitch. Mitch. %*#ing help me. Help me! Mitch! %*#. %*#. OK, we got to keep calm. If we don’t, we’re dead. Tomcat, we’re already dead. TOMCAT: Ada. We’re dead either way. Have you located Evan? I don’t know if
he even made it. Phil? Oh, God. Phil’s gone. Gone? He didn’t even
make it to the pods. %*#⚫️. OK. Can we get a
reading on The Udo? It’s gone. What do you mean? Finished. How can it be gone? Even if we get a lock– Tomcat, I don’t understand. –it wouldn’t do any good. Didn’t you smell it? Hydrazine. %*#ing hydrazine. %*#⚫️! Poisonous. %*#⚫️. That’s probably what got Phil. Can we ventilate? No. It was an explosion,
total saturation. The panels are fried. OK, listen. We’re going to do a
sound scan, right? All frequencies. See if we can locate
Evan and Mitch. Um, how do you do that? We’ll just do a basic
ping, but put it on a loop. Little trick I used
to use in submarines. See the tuning switch
right side of the com? Got it. All right, flip it. [pinging] OK. Now we just listen. Tomcat. Tomcat, I got an idea. Whoa! You hear that? What was that? [soft music] Where is that coming from? I don’t know. It’s close. (SINGING) There’s no
place that I’d rather be Than here in this
moment with you The sky is a sparkling sea And we’re sailing
course straight and true They say there’s
magic in this land And I believe it
through and through EVAN (ON COMM): Flight to Udo. Evan? EVAN (ON COMM): Ada. That’s a copy Flight. This is Tomcat. Happy to hear from you. MITCH (ON COMM): Ada, Tom. Mitch, is that you? MITCH (ON COMM): We had
some real %*#ing luck. EVAN (CON COMM): He
came into my comm range. MITCH (ON COMM): Just
follow the pied piper here. All right, everybody,
try your vid-coms. Copy that. Hey, hey, hey. No tears. No tears. This is space. Your head will explode. [chuckles]
[non-english speech] All right, so now
we all hang together, but we’re still going to hang. Who is in number one? Number one, who is in it? Why? Who has got it? Me. Damn. You used number one
for fuel, didn’t you? Phil told us to. Yes. All right, I say we take a
quick inventory, all of us. All right? Are you craz? Check our stats. Yeah, I know, we have
to cut the vid-coms. We just got ’em back. Tomcat is right. We need to know
exactly where we’re at. Water, fuel, power. That’s right. it
shouldn’t take long. We’ve barely used the pods. Just the basics. See you on the other side. [beeping] It’s too %*#ing quiet, man. You’ll be all right. Trust me. [alarm blaring] %*# was that? [non-english speech] What the %*#
happened to my pod? What do you mean? I got no fuel. Me neither, Mitch. You in three? Three, pod three? Yes. That, um– that
was the other one. What do you mean
the other one? What the %*# did you
two do to this thing? All right, calm down, Mitch. %*#! These guys are
%*#ing amateur hour. I made the call, me
and Phil so we could get close to that Chinese ship. Oh, yeah. Look how that worked out, Tom. %*# you! %*# every one of you. Are you through? We all are, Tom. Ada’s got an idea. Right, Ada? Yes, sir. I was thinking about penguins. The South Pole, the
only place in the world that never gets warm, but yet
penguins know how to live there. [scoffs] So we’re– we’re penguins now? And it’s colder
than cold outside. OK, so what do
the penguins do? Most complex
group therapy ever. Oh, that’s %*#ing funny. It’s %*#ing true. They stand in a circle for
months, sharing body heat. It’s– it’s much more than
that, like a symbiosis. So what are you saying? Still got the
cell, the prototype. So? So this little guy has dozens
and dozens of nanites in it. You’re talking
an umbilical cord. The nanites can make one. %*#. They can use the antennas. Every pod’s got one. Yeah, that’ll
take at least a day. We were willing to wait years. That’s different. How? It wasn’t life and death. You kidding? That was the mission. Oh, don’t give me that %*#⚫️. You’re just like the suits. Stop pretending we
didn’t %*# the Earth. TOMCAT (ON COMM): All right. They work. Stop being a %*#, Mitch! MITCH (ON COMM): Those
Chinese nanites %*#ed us. Shut up! I’m with Ada. There’s a surprise. I could use my single
cell, link directly to you. Mitch, I’m closer. Turn those damn things off. Hey, you think we should
be worried about any of ’em? Yeah, all of them. All right, everybody,
stir your tanks. [tanks roaring] Thanks for that. Don’t worry. This is going to work. Suppose it does,
what do we do? I’ve been thinking about that. I say we keep going. You’re crazy. Not to Ceres obviously. We’ll never get there,
and obviously, it is too far to get home. Thinking about the planetoids? We are out past Mars now. There are dozens of them, the
Trojans, Maybe the L-5 point. That’s a terrible,
terrible idea, man. I got to go with
Mitch on this one. Even if it is possible to
land without blowing up, we’ll be trapped. We lost all terraforming cells. You’ve got that prototype. One cell. That’s impossible. You said there are
dozens of nanites in there. But after we use them to
link the pods, I don’t– I don’t think this
can do much more. I cannot die in space, Ada. I– I promised Zara. She won’t even know anyway. I will. She knew the risks. Zip it up. Just the atmosphere,
Ada, that is all we need. A little bit of H2O, a
little bit of carbon. Just a pinch of creation. I’m with Evan, guys. We got to try it. Tomcat, it’s a pipe dream. Even if we were
to get down there, there won’t be any
fuel left to leave. You’re the one that gave us
all that helpful little reminder of our mission. Well, I still believe in it. I also prefer not
to die in this void. Although I don’t really
mind it much anymore. If nothing else, I want to know
there’s hope for my grandkid. Oh, God. I wish we were still knocking
back beers at Joshua Tree. Yeah, me too,
but shut up, Mitch. It’ll work. [sighs] You know– you know, if it
doesn’t, these pods are going to be our coffins. Yeah. Well, at least we’ll
be on the ground. [panting] [alarms blaring] Damn! That’s the fuel. Now or never. Flight, give us a count. Course correction. 10, nine, eight, seven. Hope they work. Six, five, four,
three, two, one. Release. MITCH: Goddam! Ada, are you talking to them? On it. Let’s hope the gravitational
pull doesn’t %*# us again. Did you hear that? That’s the nanites locking on. Tomcat, I’m starting with you. Gonna nudge a little closer. OK, hold her steady. Going for umbilical now. [soft music] Awe, %*#⚫️. Tomcat’s breaking
out the guitar. Good thing there’s not much
room on the– on the ship. Hey, %*# you, Phil! All right? I’m playing my damn guitar. Deal with it. This is my wife’s
favorite song, by the way. (SINGING) Beautiful dreamer Wake unto me Starlight and dewdrops Are waiting for thee Sounds of the rude world Heard through the day– Checking on the dogs. Hey, hey, don’t–
don’t nuke mine. Hey, you’re going to
put it in your mouth and you’re going to like it. That’s an order. You hear me, Mitch? Mitch The %*#. [intriguing music] Hey, where’s my beer? Get your own. Oh, Commander, all chivalry. [soft music] Damn, I love this. Just the looking, you know? They keep us so
bottled up in Dallas. Same in Jakarta. Just love to sit and look. When I was a kid– I was. [chuckles] 16, seminary school. Said that I wanted
to go into space. Same day I said I
didn’t believe in God. It’s ironic, huh? Nah, that’s not irony. So what’s irony? Something used
in Greek tragedy. So what am I talking about? [laughter] I don’t know. You’re blabbering. [sighs] So is this why you
became an astronaut, just to stick it to God? What about you? Mm. Mm-mm. Oh, God. I don’t know. Did you know that
planet means wanderer? No. Now there’s some
Greek for you. I like the wandering. PHIL: Hey, I wanna– I wanna to try that. How do I look? No. [laughs] Don’t let her push you around. That’s an order. Really is something. Love to look up and– Yeah, yeah. Space is amazing. You do not think so? I mean, I do. It just– it’s now starting
to sound like a pick up line. Oh. Are you in the Commander? No, no. I mean, maybe he wanted it,
but he’s an old man, I’m not. A man? Happy to hear it. [laughter] Ada, would you like to
go for a walk with me? Why? To look at the stars. I’ve seen them many
other times with engineers, biologists, astrobiologists. [emotional music] All the ologists. Have you ever really looked
at them with your own eyes? Scared? No, I’m not
scared of anything. Especially a Frenchman. Yes! They’re doing it. They’re building the umbilical. Thank you, God. All right, Evan, I’m
patching onto your nanite now. I hope it’s more
than a song shuffle. Me too. OK, you’re on the grid, Evan. You too, Mitch. Connection looks strong. Where’s your fuel gauge at? I’m out. All or nothing. What am I going
to see on my end? An icon is going to
pop up on your monitor. You too, Mitch. All right, I see it. I don’t. So what do I do? Click on it. Orange Book One. Patch them into your basics. Where’s the icon? Got you. I– Hey, where’s the icon? It should be there. Orange Book One, Mitch. Come on! Gonna start with the fuel. Where’s the %*#ing icon? I don’t– I don’t
have the %*#ing– Oh, no. Oh, no no no no. OK. [laughs] No, I got it, I got it. OK, yeah. I’m in. Dammit. And electric. Mitch, how’s
your fuel looking? Nothing. I’m– I’m not getting anything. I’m not getting any– Oh, holy %*#. It’s working. Ada! Tom! TOM (ON COMM): It’s working. Evan, everything
should be working. Ada, can you hear me? Ada. TOM (ON COMM): The
tanks are stirring. Ada, is that you? TOM (ON COMM): Fuel has
got to be going somewhere. Ada! Ada, is that you? [speaking french] Ada. Ada, you are going
to be all right. [hard breathing] Oh, %*#. Christ. Oh, %*#. Christ Jesus. Calm. Calma, baby. Breath, breath. Do you see your fuel gauge? You did it. We did it. You nailed it, Ada. Yeah, %*#! Oh, %*#. We can do it. Fantastic. You seeing this, Mitch? Nice job, Ada. Mitch, you reading this? –the Trojan planetoid. Yes. Yeah. Evan, yeah. This will work. It’ll work. Thank Chri– Four kilometers down bubble. Copy. Everyone rigged
on their hoses? Yeah, that’s copy. Ada. Copy. Ada, you are going to– Remember, five days,
that’s all we got. After that, it doesn’t matter. Everything will be
recycled out of our bodies. Drink as much as you want. It’ll only be wet. Copy that. The terraforming
on the L-5 Trojan is going to take
at least a week. So it’s going to be
real %*#ing close. Are we go for course correct? That is a go. It’s Terra firma time, people. Nine, eight, seven. Hold Flight. [signal alarming] No. Are you seeing this? No, that cannot be. Is that? Oh, %*#⚫️. It’s Phil. That can’t be. What the %*# are
you talking about, Tom? It’s– it’s the
%*#ing distress line. He never made it off The Udo. He never made it. Well, then how do
you explain the call? I can’t explain the call. Oh, so you can’t
explain the call, Tom? No, I can’t explain
the goddamn call. Is there some kind
of auto separation? What do you mean? ADA: Is there a preset program? No. ADA: You sure? No way in hell. Why not? Safety, somebody has to be
in the pod for it to launch. So there’s definitely
somebody in there. Can we establish communication? No, no. Fuel is thin enough as it is. This jury rig has only
got so many burns in it. Goddammit! Come on, Mitch. Evan is right. [signal blaring] No. [laughs] Nope. Not this time. Look, the %*#ing
pod’s accelerating. Holy %*#⚫️. Phil’s in there, Tom. Lieutenant, it’s
coming into comm range. Lieutenant
McMahon to pod five. Do you read me? Pod five, come in. Phil, it’s Tom. It’s Tomcat. Come in pod five. PHIL (ON COMM): Help me. Help. Did you hear that? PHIL (ON COMM): Help me. [screams] Oh, %*#. %*#ing– Turn it off. Turn it off. MITCH: %*#ing hell! Turn it off! Flight check in. Mitch, Ada. Tomcat. Tomcat, are you there? Yeah. Evan. I’m hearing you. Ada to Flight. Mitch. Are you there? Are you there? That’s a copy. We had a– [speaking french] MITCH: What? A monster. All right, all right. Stay focused, people. Evan, I’m going to need
a burn right about now. Get wide of that damn thing. I didn’t know
nanites could do that. Me neither, but– But what? Text based on
tardigrades, only thing that can live in space. So? So I’m saying the
nanites are tough. [laughs] Yeah,
yeah, yeah, yeah. Tough, tiny little %*#s. That’s what we wanted. Why did the Chinese
weaponize them? They did it to %*# us, man. Oh, come on. Well, what do
you call that %*#⚫️? Maybe it was an
experiment gone wrong. Yeah, well, you think
the tribe stayed on Earth? What the %*# you
talking about, tribes? I had no idea
that they would do– This isn’t about tribes. It never was about tribes. OK, focus, everyone. Let’s concentrate on
getting down to the rock. [crackling] %*# is that? 10, nine, eight. Brace positions! Seven, six, five,
four, three, two. You %*#ing hear that? Firing! [thrusters roaring] %*#! Ah! 10 more seconds. 10, nine, eight,
seven, six, five. %*#⚫️! My heat shield is cracking. three, two, one. Shut down. TOMCAT: Oh, Jesus. We are right in the window. Should be a soft landing. It is like a powder down there. Thank Christ. I don’t know how much more
old Emily here can take. Emily? Yeah. Like my wife. She was a tough old bird, too. Mitch, what is it? Do you hear that? Mitch! There’s something
on the hull, man. Goddammit! What? My pod. Emily, she’s losing
structural integrity. No! It’s going to be OK. [alarm blaring] It’s going to be OK. Tomcat. Tomcat, we can do something. Hey, I’m dead weight, kiddo. I’m going to give you
all the fuel I got. No! Me and Emily. It’s not so bad. [screaming] Oh, my God! Cut his audio. Don’t worry, Mitch, I’m here. We’re going to
take a little trip. Umbilical separated. They’re drifting. No, Tomcat. Don’t leave me. Listening to some Dylan. I need you, Tomcat! Don’t leave me here! Have faith. Tomcat, don’t go! [exploding] Brace for impact. [tomcat humming] ADA: No! [alarms blaring] [hard breathing] [groaning] Evan? Evan! Oh, God. Evan, this is Ada. Do you read me? EVAN: Ada. Ada, I’m here. Oh, thank God. My power is fried. I cannot get any
readings at all. Do you have any
hull integrity? Yes. OK. Oxygen and nitrogen– Oh, my God. –are holding steady. I’m not getting
any readings either. But I’m going to launch
the nanites anyway. What? What is it? The casing’s cracked. Goddammit. Goddammit. You know what? Don’t worry. It’s going to be OK. I’m going to seed it anyway. Christ, there is no
way to know if it worked. 10 days. That’s all we need. I’m running a cycle now. OK. Whatever you say. It’ll work. I hope so. It will work. Because my legs are broken. Both of them? If– If I do not make it,
please do not waste time trying to find me. Don’t say that, Evan. [groans] Don’t– don’t say
that %*#⚫️, Evan. It will work. It will work. Evan, 10 days and we
going to be in paradise. Not as fast as they preach, but
this one requires a lot less faith, I promise you. 10 days, 10 days. [coughing] I used to hate Tang, but I’d
take that over piss right now. [scoffs] Some joke, huh? Better than most. He speaks. Speak again Bright– Angel. [speaking french] Very cultured. Romeo and Juliet. But they could sympathize
with us right about now. I didn’t take you for
knowing Shakespeare. He sounds even
better in French. [speaking french] So what do you take me for,
you just pity me or something? What are you talking about? You’re just like,
mocking me, I think. Where is this coming from? Through the a
simulation and training, every goddamn day was that tone. You’re getting punchy. That was a woman’s tone. Shut up! And drink up. You’re dehydrated. Like my wife. I’m nothing like her. That’s it. Next dinner bell. Day five. Six. Five. Today is day four. Three. No, I’m positive. Day, day four. I have been counting. Me too. Three. Oh, to hell with it. There is no way to know. Goddammit Goddamn this place. [coughs] Evan, I’m positive. Everything is smashed. It’s day four! Three, three, three. Four! [speaking french] It’s three! I know it’s three. I’ve been counting. It’s three! I was gonna get a divorce. I should have. I should have told you. I love you. I love you. [ominous music] [people arguing] [hard breathing] [sobs] I’m sorry. I’m so sorry. So you care now, do you? But not enough. Never enough. You just wanted to
get into space, huh? ADA: Evan, please. Damn the consequences. I’m sorry. [screams] I want outta here! There is no way out of here. %*# you! 10 days. I’m out of here. It has only been one day, Ada. No. No. No, don’t %*# with me, Evan. Don’t %*# with me, I know. You believe? ADA: Yes, yes. Faith, from you? You knew what was inside
you, what we made, and you took the pills anyway. No, no. No. Just a chemical process. One life is nothing but
making a new world, that is the metal on your
chest, your name in stone. I mean, why be a mother
when you can be the mother? That night at Joshua
Tree, we made love. But then you aborted our child! That isn’t what happened. I miscarried. I miscarried. [sobs] I miscarried. I wanted your child. (SINGING) The sky
is a sparkling sea– Strange. (SINGING) There’s
magic in this land And I believe it
through and through When we circle the
fire hand in hand The magic becomes me and you So gather round my friends [sobbing] Never tell me this night is over There isn’t one thing
that we can do wrong We’re singing a
Joshua Tree Song. I hear the sweet sound of a drum [laughter] Clear In the night [ominous music] [mythicl, “straight and true”] (SINGING) Seems like
I’ve been away forever But now it’s my time to go Set my course back
to where you are Sail where the strong winds blow Even if you’re beyond the moon Somewhere beyond the stars I’ll be with you so very soon No matter how far Sailing close to the wind Making my way back to you Soaring no sense dreamed Sailing a course
straight and true Sailing close to the wind Making my way back to you Soaring no sense dreamed Sailing a course
straight and true Sailing a course
straight and true
