on 93 Echo...Copy !req
31. appears to be malfunctioning.Copy !req
32. We're gonna need you to takeCopy !req
33. a team down there
and check it out.Copy !req
34. Run some diagnostics. Over.Copy !req
35. Copy that.
Heading that way.Copy !req
36. Good morning
to our astronauts up thereCopy !req
37. on the International
Space Antenna.Copy !req
38. Sure is a beautiful day.Copy !req
39. Just perfect
to try and contact...Copy !req
40. our distant neighbors
out there in the heavens.Copy !req
41. At least
it's comfortable out here.Copy !req
42. I got some scores here.Copy !req
43. Let's see, it was Iowa State
over Kansas, 35 - 16.Copy !req
44. Space I understand.Copy !req
45. Control, I have visual
on the arm. Over.Copy !req
46. Affirmative, Major.
Proceed.Copy !req
47. Copy that.
Moving to the unit now.Copy !req
48. Control, I'm seeing
a power surge on C-post.Copy !req
49. You getting that?Copy !req
50. Uh...
Roger that, Roy...Copy !req
51. Control, we got a lot
of people up there. Over.Copy !req
52. Control. Control,
I think we have some spikes...Copy !req
53. Please just stand
by, we're working the issue.Copy !req
54. Just stand by.Copy !req
55. Control,
they're happening everywhere.Copy !req

60. Control, McBride.Copy !req
61. I'm in a spin.Copy !req
62. Atmosphere's too thin

64. so I don't black out.Copy !req
65. Control, do you read?Copy !req
66. "A self-destructive side."Copy !req
67. That's what
she used to say to me.Copy !req
68. I should feel something.Copy !req
69. I survived.Copy !req
70. I should feel something.Copy !req
71. In what has become
known as "The Surge"...Copy !req
72. a series of destructive
electrical stormsCopy !req
73. has wreaked havoc
across the globe...Copy !req
74. and scientists are concernedCopy !req
75. we've not seen
the last of them yet.Copy !req
76. Their origin? Outer space.Copy !req
77. The cause? Unknown so far...Copy !req
78. This is a message
from SPACECOM.Copy !req
79. In light of
the recent catastrophe...Copy !req
80. your attendance
is required for a debrief...Copy !req
81. to be held in Building 91,
Vandersteen Base.Copy !req
82. Please note, this meeting will
be classified "top secret."Copy !req
83. Roy, how are you? Thanks for coming in.
Appreciate it.Copy !req
84. General.Copy !req
85. This is Lieutenant
General Rivas, Director ofCopy !req
86. - U.S. SPACECOM Special Ops.
- Hi.Copy !req
87. - Sir.
- Major.Copy !req
88. Adjutant General
Vogel, head of Security.Copy !req
89. - Major.
- Ma'am.Copy !req
90. They flew
all the way in from VirginiaCopy !req
91. just last night,
just to see you.Copy !req
92. Well, thank you.Copy !req
93. Your, uh, profile
is certainly very impressive.Copy !req
94. You've done exceptionally well
on all the assessment tests.Copy !req
95. Basic combat,
space training.Copy !req
96. Just exceptional
across the board.Copy !req
97. The rumor is thatCopy !req
98. your pulse rate
has never gone above 80...Copy !req
99. in any of the spacewalks,
skywalks,Copy !req
100. and even on
this most recent fall.Copy !req
101. Is that correct?Copy !req
102. Well, so far, sir.Copy !req
103. That's very impressive.Copy !req
104. According to this,
married once, no children?Copy !req
105. Yes, sir.Copy !req
106. It's dangerous business,
as we know.Copy !req
107. Best not to
subject others to it.Copy !req
108. Fair enough.Copy !req
109. Well, we didn't
bring you in hereCopy !req
110. to talk about
your fall, Roy.Copy !req
111. We have something...Copy !req
112. of a highly classified nature
to show you.Copy !req
113. Please have a seat, Major.Copy !req
114. Yes, ma'am.Copy !req
115. What you are
about to see areCopy !req
116. spectrogram images of Neptune.Copy !req
117. These are cosmic ray bursts.Copy !req
118. That was taken
just 11 days ago.Copy !req
119. It released
high-energy particles...Copy !req
120. that caused
a catastrophic power surgeCopy !req
121. all over the world.Copy !req
122. And that's what
almost killed you.Copy !req
123. The rays grow strongerCopy !req
124. as they radiate towards us
here on Earth.Copy !req
125. Major, what can you tell us
about the Lima Project?Copy !req
126. First manned expedition to
the outer solar system, sir.Copy !req
127. Some 29 years ago,
as you know.Copy !req
128. And the commander was...Copy !req
129. He was my father, sir.Copy !req
130. The ship disappearedCopy !req
131. approximately 16 years
into the mission.Copy !req
132. No data was ever recovered.Copy !req
133. Deep space missions
were halted after that.Copy !req
134. Yes, that's him.Copy !req
135. Can you tell us how you
handled your father's absence?Copy !req
136. Well...Copy !req
137. My mother was
certainly distressed by it.Copy !req
138. Uh, she was quite ill
at the time.Copy !req
139. But he was,
uh, committed to his job...Copy !req
140. and I'm sure it was very
difficult for him as well.Copy !req
141. Roy...Copy !req
142. we have something that might
come as quite a shock to you.Copy !req
143. We believe your father
is still alive near Neptune.Copy !req
144. Where exactly,
we do not know.Copy !req
145. Now, we've sent out
numerous drones,Copy !req
146. but obviously,
it's a vast area to cover.Copy !req
147. My father's alive, sir?Copy !req
148. We believe so.Copy !req
149. Roy, The Surge
seems to be the resultCopy !req
150. of some kind
of anti-matter reaction.Copy !req
151. Now, the Lima Project was
powered by that material...Copy !req
152. and your father
was in charge of it.Copy !req
153. Now, we're talking aboutCopy !req
154. a potentially unstoppable
chain reaction here.Copy !req
155. The uncontrolled release
of anti-matter...Copy !req
156. could ultimately threatenCopy !req
157. the stability of
our entire solar system.Copy !req
158. All life could be destroyed.Copy !req
159. Major, we would
like you to sendCopy !req
160. a personal message on Mars
by secure laser...Copy !req
161. to what we hope
is the Lima Project.Copy !req
162. The text of your messageCopy !req
163. would be prepared in advance,
of course.Copy !req
164. Mars, sir?
I'm going to Mars?Copy !req
165. It is the last secure hub
we have.Copy !req
166. Roy,
we need to find outCopy !req
167. just what
we're up against here.Copy !req
168. Our underground Mars baseCopy !req
169. was the only one
unaffected by The Surge.Copy !req
170. And we believe
a personal plea,Copy !req
171. from you to your father,
might elicit a response.Copy !req
172. We can track that signal...Copy !req
173. locate him and figure out
a way to stop this.Copy !req
174. What is happening out there is
a crisis of unknown magnitude.Copy !req
175. Now, we're counting on you
to help us find him.Copy !req
176. Are you with us?Copy !req
177. - Yes, I am, sir.
- Good.Copy !req
178. You deploy first
to the moon.Copy !req
179. Our long-range rocketsCopy !req
180. are stationed there
on the Far Side.Copy !req
181. Everything after that will be
on a need-to-know basis.Copy !req
182. Yes, sir.Copy !req
183. Given the magnitude
of the threat...Copy !req
184. a cover story is being
formulated to avoid all panic.Copy !req
185. You'll be traveling
commercially to the moonCopy !req
186. to keep a low profile.Copy !req
187. Colonel Pruitt will be your
point person from here on.Copy !req
188. Absolute top secrecy
must be maintained.Copy !req
189. "Are you with us?"Copy !req
190. Like I have a choice.Copy !req
191. My dad was a pioneer.Copy !req
192. He sacrificed himself for the
search for intelligent life.Copy !req
193. My dad was the program.Copy !req
194. I was 16 when he left,
29 when he disappeared.Copy !req
195. Archived
message, received 27 years...Copy !req
196. - 3 months, 2 days ago.
- And that's that.Copy !req
197. Roy, this is
a message from your father.Copy !req
198. I'm coming at you
from the Lima Project.Copy !req
199. Just on our way past Jupiter
and ultimately on to Neptune.Copy !req
200. I know you have seenCopy !req
201. that we have excited
real and enormous interest...Copy !req
202. around the world,
and we are grateful for it.Copy !req
203. We're doing big things
up here, real big.Copy !req
204. Namely, we're about to answer
the number one question...Copy !req
205. when do we find all the
intelligent life out there?Copy !req
206. And we know we will.Copy !req
207. We're going to the edge
of the heliosphere...Copy !req
208. where the sun's
magnetic fieldCopy !req
209. won't affect
our instruments one bit.Copy !req
210. We'll be able to examine any
star system for complex life.Copy !req
211. Never been done before,
and we sure are optimistic.Copy !req
212. I feel your energy back home,
and of course, I think of God.Copy !req
213. I'm overwhelmed at seeing
and feeling His presence...Copy !req
214. so close.Copy !req
215. I love you, my son.Copy !req
216. Hello, Roy.Copy !req
217. I'm here to go
on this trip with you.Copy !req
218. Keep my eye on ya.Copy !req
219. Colonel Pruitt,
good to meet you.Copy !req
220. Actually...Copy !req
221. we've met.Copy !req
222. It was a long time ago.
I knew your dad.Copy !req
223. We were close,
he and I.Copy !req
224. We started out together,
went to Purdue together.Copy !req
225. He was a brilliant man.Copy !req
226. - I know.
- Yeah.Copy !req
227. And I remember going
to the house and seeing you.Copy !req
228. You were running around
everywhere.Copy !req
229. You drove your
poor mother nuts, but...Copy !req
230. How do you feel?Copy !req
231. Is this part
of my psych eval?Copy !req
232. Uh...Copy !req
233. No, not really, but yes.Copy !req
234. I mean, you're going
to be monitored constantly...Copy !req
235. your mental state,
your emotional state.Copy !req
236. You have a direct connection
with the subject.Copy !req
237. Colonel, for what it's worth,
I think my father's dead.Copy !req
238. Yeah, um...Copy !req
239. I was a lunar astronaut
for SPACECOM for 31 years.Copy !req
240. And I came to the
realization out there...Copy !req
241. a voyage of exploration
can be usedCopy !req
242. for something
as simple as escape.Copy !req
243. I'm telling you this, Roy,Copy !req
244. because we have to
hold out the possibility...Copy !req
245. that your father
may be hiding from us.Copy !req
246. Do you think
you're ready to go?Copy !req
247. I'm ready.Copy !req
248. All right.Copy !req
249. Your pre-launch quarantineCopy !req
250. is almost complete.Copy !req
251. You have shown no evidenceCopy !req
252. of bacterial
or viral infection...Copy !req
253. So many times in my life,
I've screwed up.Copy !req
254. Although
all efforts have been made...Copy !req
255. I've talked,
when I should have listened.Copy !req
256. I've been harsh,Copy !req
257. when I should have
been tender.Copy !req
258. In the event
of illness or accident...Copy !req
259. please make certainCopy !req
260. that you have listed
any family members...Copy !req
261. spouse, or significant otherCopy !req
262. as your next of kin,
in your personal file.Copy !req
263. Volume down.Copy !req
264. Message.
Personal directory. Eve.Copy !req
265. Hi, Eve, it's Roy.Copy !req
266. Uh...Copy !req
267. I'm away again,
no surprise there.Copy !req
268. I just wanted to say...Copy !req
269. I made a promise
to always be truthful.Copy !req
270. But I wasn't.Copy !req
271. Listen, I wanted to say...Copy !req
272. I didn't want you to go.Copy !req
273. Delete.Copy !req
274. Cancel.Copy !req
275. Good morning.Copy !req
276. I've been trained
to compartmentalize.Copy !req
277. SPACECOM requires you
to completeCopy !req
278. a pre-launch
psychological evaluation.Copy !req
279. It seems to me
that's how I approach my life.Copy !req
280. Resting BPM is 56.Copy !req
281. Didn't sleep much last night,
but it shouldn't be a problem.Copy !req
282. I remain mission ready.Copy !req
283. You have been approvedCopy !req
284. for lunar travel.Copy !req
285. Is it your first time
to the moon?Copy !req
286. No,
but it's been a while.Copy !req
287. Are you planning
on traveling outsideCopy !req
288. the secure zone
on your visit?Copy !req
289. No.Copy !req
290. Again.Copy !req
291. - How's that?
- Okay.Copy !req
292. - Okay, not too snug?
- Yeah, it feels all right.Copy !req
293. Breathe.Copy !req
294. Virgin flight 6092,Copy !req
295. to Tycho Base, Moon,
boarding now.Copy !req
296. Welcome aboard, sir.Copy !req
297. - I'm Captain Lu.
- Thank you.Copy !req
298. - Hi, Captain.
- Watch the step.Copy !req
299. - Duck your head.
- Okay.Copy !req
300. - Hello, welcome. Flight pack?
- Hello.Copy !req
301. - Yes, thanks.
- Great.Copy !req
302. - Third seat, to your right.
- Okay.Copy !req
303. Excuse me.Copy !req
304. - Hello.
- Hello.Copy !req
305. We remind you,Copy !req
306. the moon is borderless.Copy !req
307. Many mining zones
are disputed territoryCopy !req
308. and considered to be
in a state of war.Copy !req
309. Please stay within
the restricted, safe area...Copy !req
310. Excuse me?Copy !req
311. May I have a blanket
and pillow pack please?Copy !req
312. Sure. $125.Copy !req
313. Payment accepted.Copy !req
314. - Thank you.
- Thank you.Copy !req
315. As we approach,Copy !req
316. some of you can see
the grand telescope array...Copy !req
317. near the Atlas crater.Copy !req
318. It's the moon's
largest facilityCopy !req
319. for extraterrestrial research.Copy !req
320. Hot towel?Copy !req
321. - Oh, thank you.
- Thank you for flying with us.Copy !req
322. We do appreciate it.Copy !req
323. Please prepare for landing.Copy !req
324. All the hopes we ever
had for space travel...Copy !req
325. covered up by drink stands
and T-shirt vendors.Copy !req
326. Just a recreation of what
we're running from on Earth.Copy !req
327. We are world-eaters.Copy !req
328. If my dad could
see this now...Copy !req
329. he'd tear it all down.Copy !req
330. Our rocket
is named Cepheus.Copy !req
331. The crew will be
SPACECOM military personnel.Copy !req
332. They're completely unaware
of our mission.Copy !req
333. We have to
keep it that way.Copy !req
334. The launchpad is on the
other side of no man's land.Copy !req
335. It's very dangerous...Copy !req
336. so we'll have armed personnelCopy !req
337. to protect us and escort us
to the Far Side.Copy !req
338. Colonel, can I ask
what the last conversationCopy !req
339. you had with my dad was?Copy !req
340. It was not very pleasant.Copy !req
341. We quarreled about
my leaving the program.Copy !req
342. He accused me
of being a traitor.Copy !req
343. And if you were
to find him...Copy !req
344. then what?Copy !req
345. Is this very difficult
for you, son?Copy !req
346. This being about your father?Copy !req
347. No.Copy !req
348. No, my dad's a hero.Copy !req
349. SPACECOM's trying
to impugn a manCopy !req
350. who's given his entire life
to the program.Copy !req
351. I think it's despicable.Copy !req
352. Or desperate at best.Copy !req
353. We are approaching Terminal R,Copy !req
354. lunar rover hangar.Copy !req
355. We've been having trouble
with pirates since September.Copy !req
356. Some countries have been
giving them safe haven.Copy !req
357. They'll take hostages
or go for our rovers.Copy !req
358. It's like the Wild West
out there...Copy !req
359. but we'll get you
to your spacecraft.Copy !req
360. This your first time
in a war zone?Copy !req
361. Three years over
the Arctic Circle.Copy !req
362. All right.Copy !req
363. And a heck of a lot
of Army-Navy games.Copy !req
364. Well,
I guess there's not muchCopy !req
365. you haven't seen, right?Copy !req
366. Well, look,
it's almost a full moon.Copy !req
367. A large stretch of the
Far Side's real black,Copy !req
368. so let's suit up.Copy !req
369. Lunar Rovers, Group C,Copy !req
370. set for departure...Copy !req
371. to the Far Side launch complex
through gate 12.Copy !req
372. Please maintain
situational awareness.Copy !req
373. Rover 7, confirming settings.Copy !req
374. Bearing two-niner-oh.Copy !req
375. Roy?Copy !req
376. Yes, Colonel.Copy !req
377. Look at it.
The big blue marble.Copy !req
378. Never ceases to amaze me.Copy !req
379. Lieutenant,
you clocking this?Copy !req
380. Yeah, same here.Copy !req
381. I can't ID any
national markings. Over.Copy !req
382. - Lieutenant...
- At 7 o'clock...Copy !req
383. Alpha,
what do we got here?Copy !req
384. Alpha, we have
what looks likeCopy !req
385. unidentified rovers
approaching our position.Copy !req
386. Possible pirate activity,Copy !req
387. and I got a couple
of VIPs with me.Copy !req
388. Roger,
moving to flank you.Copy !req
389. Uh, Alpha, we may need
some ballistics help up here.Copy !req
390. Potential hostile situation...Copy !req
391. Here we go again,
fighting over resources.Copy !req
392. We got two coming up
on our rear, 7 o'clock.Copy !req
393. Appears to be pirates,Copy !req
394. possibly looking
for valuables.Copy !req
395. We'll send
ballistic support ASAP.Copy !req
396. What the hell
am I doing here?Copy !req
397. Shit!Copy !req
398. Alpha,
we need backup ASAP!Copy !req
399. We're being ambushed!Copy !req
400. - Mayday, mayday, mayday!
- Give me a weapon!Copy !req
401. Just hold on!Copy !req
402. LRV-3 down.Copy !req
403. LRV-2 down.Copy !req
404. Alpha,
we're gonna go off pathCopy !req
405. to reach the Far Side.Copy !req
406. I have a puncture!Copy !req
407. - Roy!
- I have a puncture.Copy !req
408. Roy, you all right?Copy !req
409. I'm okay.Copy !req
410. Alpha, repeat,
we need...Copy !req
411. Lieutenant!
Oh, Lord!Copy !req
412. Go, go, go.Copy !req
413. Hey, break it up.Copy !req
414. We are not clear.
I repeat, we are not clear.Copy !req
415. We have multiple
enemy craft in pursuit.Copy !req
416. Roy!
They're trying to ram us!Copy !req
417. Command,
Lieutenant is KIA.Copy !req
418. We've lost our escort.Copy !req
419. Request immediate support.
Over.Copy !req
420. Command,Copy !req
421. the Lieutenant's body
can be recovered...Copy !req
422. just outside Walther crater.Copy !req
423. Sorry for the loss.Copy !req
424. Over.Copy !req
425. Roger that, Major.Copy !req
426. Uh, Colonel Pruitt,
we're picking upCopy !req
427. an irregular heartbeat
through your system.Copy !req
428. We suggest you get that
checked out immediately.Copy !req
429. He's supposed to be
my security blanket.Copy !req
430. I'm fine.Copy !req
431. Why does he still do it?Copy !req
432. Why can't he just let go?Copy !req
433. My dad couldn't either.Copy !req
434. Major,
we've been expecting you.Copy !req
435. If you have any personal
business you need to tend to,Copy !req

445. Cepheus crew,Copy !req
446. prepare for pre-launch checks.Copy !req
447. SPACECOM communicated with me.Copy !req
448. It is classified.Copy !req
449. Take it.Copy !req

Thomas F...Copy !req

516. SPACECOM believes
it has detectedCopy !req
517. a possible SOS signal...Copy !req
518. from the crew
of the Lima Project.Copy !req
519. The message could indicateCopy !req
520. that Commander H.
Clifford McBride...Copy !req
521. intentionally disabled
all external communications.Copy !req
522. Under such circumstances...Copy !req
523. the Commander may
have lost all control.Copy !req
524. If this is the case...Copy !req
525. and communication
cannot be madeCopy !req
526. through his son on Mars...Copy !req
527. then all other efforts
must be undertakenCopy !req
528. to destroy the Commander...Copy !req
529. and halt the surges.Copy !req
530. This message is top secret.Copy !req
531. What happened
to my dad?Copy !req
532. What did he find out there?Copy !req
533. Did it break him?Copy !req
534. Or was he always broken?Copy !req
535. My father...Copy !req
536. the most decorated astronaut
in the history of the program.Copy !req
537. U.S. Air Force Academy...Copy !req
538. his doctorate at MIT.Copy !req
539. He promised me that one dayCopy !req
540. I could join him
in his pursuits...Copy !req
541. that he'd come back for me.Copy !req
542. And I believed him.Copy !req
543. First man to Jupiter.Copy !req
544. First to Saturn.Copy !req
545. And then... nothing.Copy !req
546. Commence slow down,
booster three.Copy !req
547. We're slowing down.Copy !req
548. Yes, sir.Copy !req
549. Got a mayday
from another craft, sir.Copy !req
550. Captain,
this is a classified mission,Copy !req
551. we cannot stop.Copy !req
552. Our destination is Mars.
Ersa Station.Copy !req
553. Major,
this is a mayday.Copy !req
554. Stopping is protocol.Copy !req
555. Any supply craft
can answer that call.Copy !req
556. The mission
is the priority, Captain.Copy !req
557. Do you not hear
what I'm saying?Copy !req
558. Major, with respect, as I say,
we are obligated to stop.Copy !req
559. As you're merely a passenger,Copy !req
560. I'm not sure
I comprehend your position.Copy !req
561. 'Course, you are
well within your rightsCopy !req
562. to take command
of this craft...Copy !req
563. but if so, you will have to
reveal your objectives.Copy !req

573. Maybe they were hit
by The Surge.Copy !req
574. Command, possible forced entry
to the Vesta required.Copy !req
575. Either
First Lieutenant StanfordCopy !req
576. or I will take
a little spacewalk...Copy !req
577. and make our way
to the craft, over.Copy !req
578. Yes, sir.Copy !req
579. Donald, what are you thinking?Copy !req
580. Wanna go out there?Copy !req
581. Uh, yeah.
Doesn't matter to me.Copy !req
582. He's scared.Copy !req
583. Yeah, I know,Copy !req
584. my suit smells

585. Oh, hell, I could use

our entire lives in hiding.Copy !req

599. Imagine the things he saw.Copy !req
600. Imagine.Copy !req
601. Vesta, this is CepheusCopy !req
602. responding
to your mayday signal.Copy !req
603. Do you read?Copy !req
604. Cepheus, the craft
is not responding.Copy !req
605. Forced entry required.Copy !req
606. I am now initiating
mayday entry code.Copy !req
607. Vesta, this is Cepheus
responding to your mayday.Copy !req
608. Do you read?Copy !req
609. Major,
I'll take Truss 5.Copy !req
610. Why don't you start
with Truss 2?Copy !req
611. Don't wander off
too far, now.Copy !req
612. Where is everybody?Copy !req
613. Vesta, this is Cepheus
responding to your mayday.Copy !req

First Lieutenant Stanford.Copy !req
632. Captain Tanner is dead.Copy !req
633. We take comfort knowing thatCopy !req
634. the Captain embraced
the rewards...Copy !req
635. May the angels and
the saints come to meet you,Copy !req
636. as you go forth
from this life.Copy !req

psychological evaluation?Copy !req
642. Yes.Copy !req
643. Please begin.Copy !req
644. I am on my way
to Mars.Copy !req
645. We answered
a mayday call, and...Copy !req
646. ended in tragedy.Copy !req
647. We lost the Captain.Copy !req
648. Your answer
is being processed.Copy !req
649. Please continue.Copy !req
650. Well, that's it.
I mean, we...Copy !req
651. We go to work,

653. We're here,
and then we're gone.Copy !req
654. Please describeCopy !req
655. how the incident itself
affected you.Copy !req
656. The attack...Copy !req
657. it was full of rage.Copy !req
658. I understand that rage.Copy !req
659. I've seen that rage
in my father...Copy !req
660. and I've seen
that rage in me.Copy !req
661. Because I'm angry...Copy !req
662. that he took off.Copy !req
663. He left us.Copy !req
664. You know...Copy !req
665. but when I look
at that anger,Copy !req
666. if I push it aside
and just put it away...Copy !req
667. all I see is hurt.Copy !req
668. I just see pain.Copy !req
669. I think it keeps me
walled off...Copy !req
670. walled off
from relationships...Copy !req
671. and opening myself up and,Copy !req
672. you know,
really caring for someone.Copy !req
673. And I don't know
how to get past that.Copy !req
674. I don't know how
to get around that.Copy !req
675. And it worries me.Copy !req
676. And I don't wanna be that guy.Copy !req

893. This is Clifford McBride,Copy !req
894. reporting from
the Lima Project.Copy !req
895. I'm disclosing a tragedy.Copy !req

897. some of our people...Copy !req
898. have been unable to handle
the psychological distress...Copy !req
899. of being so far away
from home.Copy !req
900. They desired
to return to Earth,Copy !req
901. and I could not permit that.Copy !req
902. And I have to report
the realityCopy !req
903. that they mutinied...Copy !req
904. committed acts of sabotage
trying to commandeer my ship.Copy !req
905. I was forced to react
with equal severity.Copy !req
906. I disabled one sectionCopy !req
907. of our station's
life support system...Copy !req
908. and without doubt,Copy !req
909. I did punish the innocent
along with the guilty.Copy !req
910. We will not turn back.Copy !req
911. We will venture further
into space.Copy !req
912. We will find
alien intelligence.Copy !req
913. I am forever driven
on this quest.Copy !req
914. would never allowCopy !req
915. their image to be shattered...Copy !req
916. so they made him a hero

919. And now it's your burden.Copy !req
920. Can you get me
on that ship?Copy !req
921. I can get you

922. After that,
you're on your own.Copy !req
923. I will deal with him.Copy !req
924. I will deal
with my father.Copy !req
925. This is a map

927. You'll be able to access
the ship from there.Copy !req
928. We're approaching.Copy !req
929. They're gonna come for you,
you know.Copy !req
930. I know.Copy !req
931. I don't care anymore.Copy !req

in our airlock.Copy !req
965. How to proceed? Over.Copy !req
966. We see that, too.
We're checking it out.Copy !req
967. Stand by.Copy !req
968. SPACECOM,
we need orders, please. Over.Copy !req
969. McBride

970. Do you read?Copy !req
971. Jesus, it's McBride.Copy !req
972. He's breached
the goddamn airlock.Copy !req
973. Captain Stanford,
this is Major McBride.Copy !req
974. I am on board.Copy !req
975. I am not a threat.
I repeat, I am not a threat.Copy !req
976. Major, your presence
is jeopardizing the mission.Copy !req
977. Stay where you are!Copy !req
978. Do not proceed any further.Copy !req
979. - SPACECOM...
- Stand by.Copy !req
980. SPACECOM,
what are your orders?Copy !req
981. We're determining
the course of action here.Copy !req
982. We're about
to switch overCopy !req
983. to long-range propulsion.Copy !req
984. Can you neutralize the threat?Copy !req
985. You'll never make it
to Neptune without me.Copy !req
986. You need me.Copy !req
987. Neutralize the Major.Copy !req
988. By any means necessary,
you must neutralize the Major.Copy !req
989. Copy that.Copy !req
990. Don't listen to them,
Captain.Copy !req
991. I will take
all accountability.Copy !req
992. Major,

1008. Breathe in!Copy !req
1009. What have I done?Copy !req
1010. Mission,
this is Major Roy McBride.Copy !req
1011. I boarded the Cepheus
against mission directives.Copy !req
1012. I did not do so
with hostile intent.Copy !req
1013. But because of my actions,
I regret to inform you...Copy !req
1014. all crew members
are now deceased.Copy !req
1015. The flight recorder
will tell the story.Copy !req
1016. History will have to decide.Copy !req
1017. I'm en route to Neptune.Copy !req
1018. I remain fully committed...Copy !req
1019. to the completion
of the mission...Copy !req
1020. namely to destroyCopy !req
1021. the Lima Project
in its entirety.Copy !req
1022. I'm switching off all comms.Copy !req
1023. I'm going dark until final
approach to avoid detection.Copy !req
1024. Over and out.Copy !req
1025. Estimated length of journey...Copy !req
1026. 79 days, four hours,
eight minutes.Copy !req
1027. You seem really preoccupiedCopy !req
1028. with your work.Copy !req
1029. I just feel like I'm
on my own all the time.Copy !req
1030. I don't know
what we're doing.Copy !req
1031. You're so distant.Copy !req
1032. I mean, even when you're here,
I don't know where you are.Copy !req
1033. I feel like I'm looking
for you all the time...Copy !req
1034. trying to connect to you,
be close to you...Copy !req
1035. and it fucking sucks.Copy !req
1036. You know, I have my own life.Copy !req
1037. I'm my own person.Copy !req
1038. And I can't
just wait for you.Copy !req
1039. Feeding tube activated.Copy !req
1040. we have excited
real and enormous interest...Copy !req
1041. around the world,
and we're grateful for it.Copy !req
1042. See, we're doing big things
up here. Real big.Copy !req
1043. Namely, we are about to answer
the number one question...Copy !req
1044. when do we findCopy !req
1045. all the intelligent life
out there?Copy !req
1046. And we know we will,Copy !req
1047. according to
the Drake Equation.Copy !req
1048. What you see hereCopy !req
1049. is the new starshade,
just ready to deploy.Copy !req
1050. You see it opening upCopy !req
1051. just like a prairie flower
in the springtime.Copy !req
1052. But I think
you are no longer deserving...Copy !req
1053. so I guess...Copy !req
1054. this is goodbye.Copy !req
1055. Roy?Copy !req
1056. retired from
the program leaves me to doubtCopy !req
1057. not only your judgement,
but your character.Copy !req
1058. See, we're just out
from Mars now.Copy !req
1059. He's been to Mars?Copy !req
1060. Just on our way
past Jupiter...Copy !req
1061. Do you wanna know
a secret?Copy !req
1062. eventually onto Neptune.Copy !req
1063. You have traded...Copy !req
1064. a glimpse
of the infinite...Copy !req
1065. I am free
of your moral boundaries.Copy !req
1066. I have total clarity.Copy !req
1067. I am on my way
to Neptune...Copy !req
1068. Because we will find
our brothers and sisters...Copy !req
1069. The zero G
and the extended durationCopy !req
1070. of the journey
is affecting me...Copy !req
1071. both physically and mentally.Copy !req
1072. I am alone.Copy !req
1073. Something I always believed
I preferred.Copy !req
1074. I am alone.Copy !req
1075. But I confess...Copy !req
1076. it's wearing on me.Copy !req
1077. I am alone.
I am alone.Copy !req
1078. Over and out.Copy !req
1079. I've let so many people down.Copy !req
1080. Hi, Roy.Copy !req
1081. Um...Copy !req
1082. I know
it's a little bit weird...Copy !req
1083. that I'm sending you
this video,Copy !req
1084. and not talking to you
in person...Copy !req
1085. I'm so selfish. I'm selfish.
I'm just so selfish.Copy !req
1086. I'm just a selfish person.Copy !req
1087. And I know for
certain I am doing God's work.Copy !req
1088. Forgiveness is bullshit.Copy !req
1089. We will find
our brothers and sisters...Copy !req

1105. The Cepheus will remain
in autopilotCopy !req
1106. while I complete the mission.Copy !req
1107. All my life, I was terrified
to confront him.Copy !req
1108. I'm terrified even now.Copy !req
1109. What do I expect?Copy !req
1110. In the end, the son suffers
the sins of the father.Copy !req

1120. I have cataracts,
I don't see very well.Copy !req
1121. Hi, Dad.Copy !req
1122. You alone?Copy !req
1123. Oh, yeah.Copy !req
1124. Captain always goes down
with the ship.Copy !req
1125. I've been here
quite a while alone.Copy !req
1126. I'm trying to stop
this goddamn surge.Copy !req
1127. What happened?Copy !req
1128. My last loyal few
tried to escape.Copy !req
1129. And they started all this.Copy !req
1130. They caused a meltdown
out there, Roy.Copy !req
1131. We fought, and our struggle
caused catastrophe.Copy !req
1132. It's why I'm here.Copy !req
1133. I'm gonna stop it.Copy !req
1134. Get the two of us
back home, maybe.Copy !req
1135. Home?Copy !req
1136. Yep.Copy !req
1137. This is home.Copy !req
1138. This is a one-way voyage,
my son.Copy !req
1139. You're talking about Earth?Copy !req
1140. There was never anything
for me there.Copy !req
1141. I never cared about you,
or your mother...Copy !req
1142. or any of your small ideas.Copy !req
1143. For 30 years...Copy !req
1144. I've been breathing this air,
eating this food...Copy !req
1145. enduring these hardships...Copy !req
1146. and I never once thought
about home.Copy !req
1147. I know, Dad.Copy !req
1148. I knew this would
widow your mother...Copy !req
1149. and orphan you...Copy !req
1150. but I found my destiny.Copy !req
1151. So, I abandoned my son.Copy !req
1152. I still love you, Dad.Copy !req
1153. I'm taking you back.Copy !req
1154. Hmm... I have work to do.Copy !req
1155. I have infinite work to do.Copy !req
1156. I must find intelligent life.Copy !req
1157. It's time to go.Copy !req
1158. We don't have much time.Copy !req
1159. Come on.Copy !req
1160. I admire your courage
for coming alone, Roy...Copy !req
1161. traveling all this way...Copy !req
1162. following me here.Copy !req
1163. Makes me wonder what we could
have accomplished together.Copy !req
1164. But I guess...Copy !req
1165. the fates have deprived meCopy !req
1166. of the partner
I should have had.Copy !req
1167. If we'd had more people
like you...Copy !req
1168. we could have pressed on,Copy !req
1169. could've found
what we're looking for.Copy !req
1170. My crew examined
all the data...Copy !req
1171. discovered no other life
out there.Copy !req
1172. No other consciousness.Copy !req
1173. They quit.Copy !req
1174. Sometimes...Copy !req
1175. the human will must overcome
the impossible.Copy !req
1176. You and I have to
continue on, Roy. Together.Copy !req
1177. To find what science claims
does not exist.Copy !req
1178. You and I, together, Roy.Copy !req
1179. Because the Lima Project
has told us...Copy !req
1180. that we're all alone
in the knowable universe.Copy !req
1181. I can't fail.Copy !req
1182. You can't let me fail, Roy.Copy !req
1183. Dad...Copy !req
1184. you haven't.Copy !req
1185. Now, we know...Copy !req
1186. we're all we've got.Copy !req
1187. Armed.

1195. Let me go, Roy.Copy !req
1196. Unhook me.Copy !req
1197. Unhook me, son.Copy !req
1198. Why go on?Copy !req
1199. Why keep trying?Copy !req
1200. You're gathering

1204. in greater detail
than ever before.Copy !req
1205. They were beautiful,
magnificent...Copy !req
1206. full of awe and wonder.Copy !req
1207. But beneath
their sublime surfaces...Copy !req
1208. there was nothing.Copy !req
1209. No love or hate.Copy !req
1210. No light or dark.Copy !req
1211. He could only see
what was not there...Copy !req
1212. and missed what was
right in front of him.Copy !req
1213. Command,
this is Major Roy McBride.Copy !req
1214. I made it
to the Lima Project.Copy !req
1215. I am destroying
the structure...Copy !req
1216. to prevent any further surges
from reaching Earth...Copy !req
1217. using the nuclear munitions
on board.Copy !req
1218. I will attempt to returnCopy !req
1219. using the explosion
as my primary propellant.Copy !req
1220. In the case
I do not survive,Copy !req
1221. I've retrieved significant
data from the Lima.Copy !req
1222. And all efforts should be made
to retrieve my craft.Copy !req
1223. Trajectory, Earth.Copy !req

1239. You're all right, Major.Copy !req
1240. I'm steady, calm.Copy !req
1241. I slept well. No bad dreams.Copy !req
1242. I am active and engaged.Copy !req
1243. I'm aware of my surroundingsCopy !req
1244. and those

1245. I'm attentive.Copy !req
1246. I'm focused

1247. to the exclusion
of all else.Copy !req
1248. I'm unsure of the future...Copy !req
1249. but I'm not concerned.Copy !req
1250. I will rely
