00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:00,480
Speaker 1: M HM.

Speaker 2: Cod down for blast off x minus five or three

00:00:08,839 --> 00:00:39,240
two x minus one fire from the far horizons of

4
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:42,479
the unknown come transcribed tales of new dimensions in time

5
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:46,479
and space. These are stories of the future adventures in

6
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:48,560
which you'll live in a million, could be years, on

7
00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:52,679
a thousand, maybe worlds. The National Broadcasting Company, in cooperation

8
00:00:52,759 --> 00:00:56,079
with Street and Smith, publishers of Astounding Science Fiction, presents

9
00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,240
he minus minus.

10
00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:01,280
Speaker 3: One one one.

11
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:26,879
Speaker 4: To Night's Story Requiem by Robert Heinlein. On a high

12
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:31,120
hill in Samoa, there is a grave. Inscribed on the marker.

13
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:32,599
Speaker 5: Are these words.

14
00:01:32,519 --> 00:01:36,439
Speaker 6: Under the wide and starry sky, dig my grave, and

15
00:01:36,519 --> 00:01:40,519
let me lie gladly? Did I live and gladly die?

16
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,879
And I lay me down with a will? This be

17
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:48,760
the verse you grave for me. Here he lies where

18
00:01:48,799 --> 00:01:53,760
he longed to be. Home is the sailor home from

19
00:01:53,799 --> 00:01:58,439
the sea, and the hunter home from the hill.

20
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 4: The lines appear another place, scrawled on a shipping tag

21
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:07,560
from a compressed air container and pinned to the ground

22
00:02:08,479 --> 00:02:15,240
with a knife. It wasn't much of a fair, as

23
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:17,560
Fair's goal the trotting races wouldn't.

24
00:02:17,199 --> 00:02:18,520
Speaker 5: Be held till eight o'clock at night.

25
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:21,599
Speaker 4: The flags and butting drooped in the gray afternoon, and

26
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:25,879
the pitchmen seemed discouraged. A large black limousine stood at

27
00:02:25,879 --> 00:02:29,000
the side of the road, thirty two cylinders purring.

28
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:30,879
Speaker 5: Quietly and over the dust.

29
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:33,479
Speaker 4: In the clatter of the fair, a bullhorn blasted the

30
00:02:33,599 --> 00:02:34,319
highest pitch.

31
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,960
Speaker 7: Hurry, hurry, hurry, this way to the Moon rocket. The

32
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:38,960
Moon rocket.

33
00:02:39,319 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 8: See it fly, the actual type rocket used by the

34
00:02:42,599 --> 00:02:46,199
first man to see it fly. Chill thrills, the romance

35
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,800
of space. You can ride in it for only twenty

36
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,439
five dollars. Hurry, hurry, hurry.

37
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 7: Hey, Charlie, we got that feed too patched. I welded

38
00:02:55,879 --> 00:02:58,479
it good for maybe an hour. What a craw They

39
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:00,599
wouldn't risk a nickel to see the sun blow up?

40
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:02,639
Speaker 3: Captain, excuse me?

41
00:03:03,599 --> 00:03:06,360
Speaker 7: Oh yes, sir, fifty cents to inspect the rocket. One.

42
00:03:06,599 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 3: Could you take a passenger this trip?

43
00:03:09,479 --> 00:03:13,159
Speaker 7: You mean you want to go up twenty five bucks? Yes,

44
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:15,800
right away, Charlie. Take the pitch step this way, sir.

45
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:17,000
Look out for the fee lines.

46
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,199
Speaker 3: Oh yes, I see them.

47
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 7: Hey, doctor, passenger for a check up?

48
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:24,479
Speaker 3: Okay, mac well, is this necessary?

49
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:25,159
Speaker 7: Regulations?

50
00:03:25,479 --> 00:03:28,000
Speaker 9: Take off your coat, open your shirt, roll up your

51
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:30,240
right so thinks Mac.

52
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,919
Speaker 7: Slow, we're not drawn as much as the coach ten.

53
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:35,000
I don't pick up tonight with the trotters.

54
00:03:35,039 --> 00:03:37,159
Speaker 3: I'm ready, doctor, all right.

55
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 9: Give me a right, all right? Breathing, breathe, breathe. Uh huh,

56
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:51,599
sorry Mac, no, go down. Cardiac condition. I couldn't certify.

57
00:03:51,639 --> 00:03:52,120
I'm sorry.

58
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,439
Speaker 3: You mean you won't take me up?

59
00:03:54,879 --> 00:03:55,719
Speaker 7: He's the doctor.

60
00:03:55,879 --> 00:03:58,439
Speaker 3: Well I rather expected it.

61
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 7: Sorry when you I mean we could have used the

62
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:01,759
twenty five.

63
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:06,039
Speaker 3: Excuse me, captain? Yeah, could you and your engineer have

64
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,199
dinner with me after your flight?

65
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:09,879
Speaker 7: Dinner at my home.

66
00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 3: My car's over there.

67
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:16,839
Speaker 6: That's your current, the limousine. That's right, you're serious, man.

68
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:23,160
You weren't Charlie and me for dinner of course? Okay, okay,

69
00:04:24,319 --> 00:04:38,319
see why not? Thanks Charlie you had enough layoff man.

70
00:04:38,399 --> 00:04:41,279
Speaker 3: Oh that's perfectly all right, Captain mc anddie cigar.

71
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,319
Speaker 7: Thanks, thanks.

72
00:04:44,519 --> 00:04:47,839
Speaker 3: Yes, it's hard for me to see why any holder

73
00:04:47,879 --> 00:04:51,000
of a Master's ticket would quit the Earth Moon run.

74
00:04:51,879 --> 00:04:54,279
Speaker 7: I didn't like it. Yeah, yeah, don't hand us that

75
00:04:54,319 --> 00:04:56,360
it was ro J washed you all right? All right,

76
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:57,639
so I took a few drinks.

77
00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:01,720
Speaker 3: Tell me, yeah, gentlemen, satisfied with what you're doing now?

78
00:05:01,759 --> 00:05:04,519
Speaker 7: Are you kidding? We've been pushing the old junk heap

79
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,120
for a year after time the sheriff has an attachment

80
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:08,680
on the ship for a fuel bill. It stinks.

81
00:05:08,959 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 3: Would it help you to get back to the moon.

82
00:05:11,319 --> 00:05:14,399
Speaker 7: Sure, I could get a short haul job hopping over.

83
00:05:15,439 --> 00:05:17,120
I kept my nose clean and might even get back

84
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:17,560
on the run.

85
00:05:17,759 --> 00:05:20,279
Speaker 3: Would you be open to a business proposition?

86
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:22,480
Speaker 7: What is it?

87
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:24,439
Speaker 3: You own your own rocket.

88
00:05:24,199 --> 00:05:25,600
Speaker 7: Buying a couple of lians against it?

89
00:05:26,759 --> 00:05:29,519
Speaker 3: I want to charter her to take me to the moon.

90
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:31,959
Speaker 7: Hear what he said, mac? He wants us to fly

91
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:34,800
that old heap to the moon. He can't do it.

92
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:37,759
The old boats want out. Why don't you charter a

93
00:05:37,759 --> 00:05:38,720
regular company ship?

94
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,639
Speaker 3: Oh no, no, I can't do that. The company chotter

95
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:45,439
comes up before a congressional committee this year. They have

96
00:05:45,519 --> 00:05:46,800
to follow the regular.

97
00:05:46,759 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 7: You can't pass the physical. Now, if you can afford

98
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,839
to hire us, why don't you bribe a couple of

99
00:05:51,879 --> 00:05:53,600
company medics. It's been there before.

100
00:05:54,319 --> 00:05:59,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know, but not for me. I'm d D Harriman.

101
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,519
Speaker 7: You own the company? Hey, what are you giving us?

102
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:07,519
Speaker 3: I own a large percentage of the company, but the

103
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:11,199
other directors won't permit me to jeopardize the franchise.

104
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:13,920
Speaker 7: You tie that mac, a guy with half the money

105
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:17,040
in the world, and he's up a creek. Shut up, Charlie.

106
00:06:18,879 --> 00:06:20,360
Why do you want to go to the moon so bad?

107
00:06:20,399 --> 00:06:21,439
Mister Hell?

108
00:06:21,879 --> 00:06:24,480
Speaker 3: It's the one thing I really wanted to do all

109
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:28,600
my life. I'm may be fifty years older than you.

110
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,240
When I was a kid, nobody believed we'd really reached

111
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:36,439
the moon. You've seen rockets all your lives. When I

112
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:38,199
was a boy that laughed at the idea, but I

113
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:42,560
believed I wanted the moon. Then I used to stand

114
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:44,519
in the backyard and stare at it.

115
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:52,399
Speaker 5: How far away is it?

116
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 7: Mom?

117
00:06:53,519 --> 00:06:55,839
Speaker 4: The moon far enough?

118
00:06:56,319 --> 00:06:59,399
Speaker 7: Why don't people fly to the moon? They tied?

119
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:01,920
Speaker 3: They just can't.

120
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:06,839
Speaker 7: But not now. Anyway, Someday I will what flight at

121
00:07:06,879 --> 00:07:08,839
the moon? Sure?

122
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:13,279
Speaker 10: Sure, and come on, dell inside, way past your bedtime.

123
00:07:18,439 --> 00:07:21,839
Speaker 3: There wasn't enough money for college, so I worked stock

124
00:07:21,879 --> 00:07:24,199
boy at the old Ford plant in Detroit, the count

125
00:07:24,279 --> 00:07:27,600
and credit manager for a mail order house. Then New

126
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:33,199
York and Wall Street, and then transportation the monorail line

127
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:37,279
between New York and Chicago, the Atlantic Pressure Tunnel, and

128
00:07:37,319 --> 00:07:43,879
then harrim and rockets, Dell, del I want to talk

129
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:45,879
to you. I'm working, Charlotte.

130
00:07:45,959 --> 00:07:47,879
Speaker 10: You talk to me now, DELI you may not get

131
00:07:47,879 --> 00:07:51,839
another chance. What is it, reredlock was in. You've sold

132
00:07:51,879 --> 00:07:52,319
out again?

133
00:07:52,519 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 3: I run the business, Charlotte.

134
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,519
Speaker 10: Well, I'm fed up with it up to here. I

135
00:07:57,600 --> 00:07:59,839
married you because I love you. I still love you.

136
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:01,720
I'm fed up now.

137
00:08:01,839 --> 00:08:03,199
Speaker 7: What is it, Charlotte?

138
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 10: We are not young anymore. Fred tells me you've brought

139
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:10,759
into a bankrupt engineering firm, sunk every nickel in it.

140
00:08:10,839 --> 00:08:14,279
Speaker 3: Well, they only short smell of fuel injector patns. I

141
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:18,160
need them. How many times do we have to start over?

142
00:08:19,079 --> 00:08:19,959
Speaker 7: I'm tired.

143
00:08:20,519 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 10: I'm not asking for millions, just a little life for

144
00:08:24,079 --> 00:08:24,879
the two of us.

145
00:08:29,519 --> 00:08:31,839
Speaker 3: I didn't know about the divorce for a month. I

146
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:35,720
lost the papers under a stack of blueprints and stock perspectus.

147
00:08:36,799 --> 00:08:39,120
That night, I walked through the park, watching the full

148
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:45,120
moon move across the sky. My old friend I could

149
00:08:45,159 --> 00:08:53,279
recognize the wrinkles Christian Marry Facandatus Marry Twincolatis, the lunar Apennines.

150
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:05,360
It took two fraudulent bankruptcy and an investigation by the

151
00:09:05,399 --> 00:09:08,519
Securities and Exchange Commission before we did it the Moon.

152
00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:14,159
There were three injunctions on the rocket before it's blasted off.

153
00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:17,799
I was going on the second trip, but my considerate

154
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:20,159
board served a court order on me.

155
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:22,559
Speaker 5: You can't go down red.

156
00:09:23,759 --> 00:09:27,080
Speaker 3: I'll break you if it's the last thing I tell.

157
00:09:27,279 --> 00:09:29,840
Speaker 7: You've got a bad heart. That's no secret.

158
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:33,360
Speaker 11: If you die out there, the whole card house comes down.

159
00:09:33,799 --> 00:09:36,720
Now we've got an equity in this corporation, we're going

160
00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:39,399
to see it protected. You've sucked us in on this

161
00:09:39,519 --> 00:09:42,320
wild scheme, and now that it paid off, you're going

162
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:44,440
to sit right down here on Earth and see that

163
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:47,360
the dividends come out on time. You're not going to

164
00:09:47,399 --> 00:09:49,000
the moondale, forget it.

165
00:09:53,759 --> 00:09:54,559
Speaker 7: I never went.

166
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:58,320
Speaker 3: By the time my lawyers shook off the restraining orders,

167
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:02,039
the first cargo rocket had cried the Pacific, and Congress

168
00:10:02,639 --> 00:10:08,519
rushed through the Space Precautionary Act. My heart kept earthbound.

169
00:10:09,039 --> 00:10:13,279
And now I'm old. I've lived longer than I should,

170
00:10:13,639 --> 00:10:17,039
but I would not let myself die. I will not

171
00:10:17,279 --> 00:10:26,440
until I have set foot on the moon. There, Captain McIntyre,

172
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,000
you asked why I wanted to go to the Moon.

173
00:10:29,879 --> 00:10:34,279
Speaker 6: Well you'll find a ship, mister Hammond, an our driver.

174
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:37,799
You'll hit the moon, all right, Then we can get

175
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:41,960
down the business. I'll have contracts drawn up for you. You too,

176
00:10:42,039 --> 00:10:43,159
will have to buy.

177
00:10:42,919 --> 00:10:45,720
Speaker 3: Me a ship. I can't do it openly. Of course,

178
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:49,840
my dear board of directors would find out and slap

179
00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:51,279
a court order on me.

180
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:53,519
Speaker 7: We can't get credit. I don't worry.

181
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:57,279
Speaker 3: I'll supply the cash in advance. Pick some ship that

182
00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:02,000
can be fitted for the jumper, strato yachtumn, apply for

183
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:07,799
strato license, thenfruts issued. You move to a piece of dessert,

184
00:11:08,399 --> 00:11:09,639
I'll find a strip and buy it.

185
00:11:09,799 --> 00:11:10,919
Speaker 7: You mean Feder out there.

186
00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:15,320
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, we'll install extra fuel tanks, change the injectors

187
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:16,519
and timers.

188
00:11:16,639 --> 00:11:20,639
Speaker 7: For spaceflight, Jollie. You think you can manage the change

189
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:22,639
over without a dockyard and shops, Well, I'll have to

190
00:11:22,639 --> 00:11:24,919
have a load of power tools and a lot of time.

191
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,440
It'll be haywired and spot welded.

192
00:11:27,159 --> 00:11:28,639
Speaker 6: Just so it doesn't blow up when I slip the key.

193
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:30,360
It won't blow Well, that's what you said about the

194
00:11:30,399 --> 00:11:30,840
last ship.

195
00:11:30,879 --> 00:11:33,559
Speaker 7: I'll cut it out, will you. I asked you, mister Herman,

196
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:35,639
that last ship was a junk keep and we knew it.

197
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:38,559
Now this one, this will be different. We're gonna spend

198
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:41,120
some dough and do it right anyway, mister Herr.

199
00:11:41,039 --> 00:11:43,399
Speaker 3: Spend all the money you want. I'll see that you

200
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:51,080
get it.

201
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:53,600
Speaker 6: One hundred and thirty two shares of Apex holding at

202
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:59,840
sixty percent of park fifty space based fuel. That's the list. Oh,

203
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:04,320
mister Haleman, there's a process outside. What is I don't

204
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:06,159
know so, but I think it's a supena.

205
00:12:06,399 --> 00:12:10,320
Speaker 3: Oh, I was expecting that Ashley get mister Caymans on

206
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,919
the phone. I think it's time for my lawyer.

207
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:24,159
Speaker 7: May it please your honor?

208
00:12:25,159 --> 00:12:30,240
Speaker 1: Council representing mister Harriman's relatives contend that his behavior for

209
00:12:30,279 --> 00:12:33,919
the past few weeks gives clear indication that a mind

210
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,399
brilliant in the world of finance.

211
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:37,320
Speaker 5: Has become senile.

212
00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:43,200
Speaker 1: They petition you to declare him incombatant and to assign

213
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:48,000
a conservator to protect his financial interests and those.

214
00:12:47,759 --> 00:12:48,679
Speaker 5: Of his heirs.

215
00:12:49,879 --> 00:12:52,600
Speaker 1: May I suggest that in the last few words, my

216
00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:56,600
opponent gave away his entire thesis. It is evident that

217
00:12:56,639 --> 00:13:00,440
the petitioners believe that my client should conduct his affairs

218
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:03,120
in such a way as to ensure that his nephews,

219
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:07,120
nieces and their issue will be supported in unearned.

220
00:13:06,799 --> 00:13:08,639
Speaker 7: Luxury for the rest of their lives.

221
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:13,240
Speaker 1: Therefore, we pray this court will confirm my client in

222
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:15,759
his right to do what he likes with his own

223
00:13:16,639 --> 00:13:20,159
deny this petition and send these meddlers about their business.

224
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:31,919
Speaker 7: Well, eh, Camen, it could go either way.

225
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:33,960
Speaker 3: He might rule against me.

226
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:36,600
Speaker 5: He might will know tomorrow.

227
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:55,759
Speaker 7: Here it is eccentric millionaire. Disappears you eccentric, mister Herrimont.

228
00:13:55,759 --> 00:13:58,440
Speaker 3: And they used to call me crazy, but that depends

229
00:13:58,440 --> 00:13:59,759
on your credit rating.

230
00:14:00,159 --> 00:14:03,639
Speaker 7: A bench warned under content proceedings has been issue.

231
00:14:03,639 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 3: Will find me out here. How is the work going.

232
00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:09,159
Speaker 7: Charlie, mine's in pretty good shape.

233
00:14:09,159 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 3: Well are you ready to go? My nephews will have

234
00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:13,240
detectives out looking for me.

235
00:14:13,799 --> 00:14:17,559
Speaker 7: Well, I could run those calibration tests tonight, take from midnight.

236
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:21,840
After that, it's up to the commodore. Here there, there

237
00:14:21,879 --> 00:14:24,879
she is, mister Harriman. That's the job that'll take it

238
00:14:24,919 --> 00:14:25,360
to the moon.

239
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,480
Speaker 3: It's a good ship, isn't it.

240
00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:31,039
Speaker 7: Mac? Stop the car?

241
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 6: Yeah all right, he's out.

242
00:14:38,799 --> 00:14:43,039
Speaker 7: Look at him? What matter best? Pocket? Break the glass?

243
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:48,600
Hold on his nose? He looks lousy. Yeah, yeah, there

244
00:14:49,559 --> 00:14:53,600
he's breathing. Easy, go around soon, Mac we ain't gone

245
00:14:53,639 --> 00:14:56,279
through with this? Why not? It's murder. You'll never stand

246
00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:58,519
up under the initial acceleration. I mean not, But that's

247
00:14:58,519 --> 00:15:00,480
what he wants to do. You heard him. I don't

248
00:15:00,559 --> 00:15:02,799
like it. He's an okay, old buzzard. What do you

249
00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:03,480
want to do with him?

250
00:15:03,679 --> 00:15:05,360
Speaker 6: Send him back to Kansas City so there's no good

251
00:15:05,399 --> 00:15:07,879
nephews can shut him up in the cellar. No, but okay,

252
00:15:07,919 --> 00:15:09,320
then I'll get out there and make it set up

253
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:10,240
for those test runs.

254
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:11,919
Speaker 7: Get that ship ready to fly.

255
00:15:22,519 --> 00:15:25,039
Speaker 5: Hey, hey, you you me?

256
00:15:25,679 --> 00:15:27,399
Speaker 12: How many other people that are out in this desert?

257
00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:28,559
What can I do for you?

258
00:15:28,639 --> 00:15:28,720
Speaker 5: You?

259
00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 12: James McIntyre, Hey Mac, what's the matter, Charlie?

260
00:15:32,519 --> 00:15:33,320
Speaker 7: You McIntyre?

261
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,919
Speaker 12: Yeah, I'm a deputy federal marshal in this district.

262
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:38,639
Speaker 5: I got a warrant for your arrest.

263
00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:39,679
Speaker 7: What charge?

264
00:15:39,879 --> 00:15:42,399
Speaker 12: Conspiracy to violate the Space Precautionary Act.

265
00:15:42,919 --> 00:15:45,879
Speaker 5: I suppose you're child Schwartz. I got one for you too, thanks.

266
00:15:46,039 --> 00:15:48,240
Speaker 12: And a man named Harriman got a caught order to

267
00:15:48,279 --> 00:15:49,440
put seals on your spaceship.

268
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:50,799
Speaker 7: We haven't got any spaceship.

269
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:51,559
Speaker 5: What's that a.

270
00:15:51,639 --> 00:15:53,080
Speaker 7: Kiddie car strato yacht?

271
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:56,240
Speaker 12: Yeah, well, I'll put seals in until a spaceship shows up.

272
00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:58,519
Speaker 5: Where's Harriman in the shed? What shed?

273
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:04,039
Speaker 7: Oh my knuckle, that's the one I broke playing football.

274
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:05,799
I'm always hurting that finger.

275
00:16:05,799 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 6: We gotta hurry get Pop into the cabin and strap

276
00:16:08,039 --> 00:16:08,720
them into his hammock.

277
00:16:08,799 --> 00:16:22,120
Speaker 7: Right song, Deputy, Oh my knuckle, she's warm, Charlie. Everything

278
00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:24,320
set back there? How do I know I didn't have

279
00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:28,080
time to run tests? Tough you all right, mister Harriman.

280
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:30,919
Speaker 3: I think so. But these straps are tight.

281
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:34,799
Speaker 7: I have to be when we blasted off. What's that, Charlie?

282
00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:41,039
Give me control? Check test keys? One bank, check, two bank?

283
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:44,519
There's knucks, Hilary out. We don't need it, all right, boy,

284
00:16:44,559 --> 00:16:55,960
hang on, let's go. How are you pop? It? Fine?

285
00:16:56,519 --> 00:16:58,559
You couldn't be better. You better stay in your hammock.

286
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:02,919
I loosened the straps a little. What is it think?

287
00:17:03,679 --> 00:17:04,799
Speaker 3: Just COOEYZ you in that shone.

288
00:17:04,839 --> 00:17:06,680
Speaker 7: You ain't fool of me? On Pop. We got a

289
00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:08,960
couple of busted ribs. There as much I can do

290
00:17:09,039 --> 00:17:11,680
till we till we ground. You take a neo barentol

291
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:12,759
and I'll wake you when we cut that.

292
00:17:13,079 --> 00:17:15,480
Speaker 3: No, No, I'll stay.

293
00:17:15,279 --> 00:17:16,920
Speaker 7: Away, okay, just as you say.

294
00:17:16,759 --> 00:17:31,079
Speaker 6: Pop's that automatic, Charlie, how are the tubes holding up?

295
00:17:31,279 --> 00:17:36,640
Speaker 7: Fine? Drum handles? Nice? How's Pop alive? He's in bad shape?

296
00:17:36,799 --> 00:17:39,240
How bad? Cracked a couple of ribs in the takeoff.

297
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:41,559
I don't know what else. You think he'll last the trip?

298
00:17:41,839 --> 00:17:44,480
His heart was pounding like an off time valve. Wow,

299
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:47,359
he'll last. He's tough, tough, he's delicate as a canary.

300
00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:49,759
I don't mean that he's tough down inside where it

301
00:17:49,839 --> 00:17:52,680
counts just the same. You better set her down awful

302
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:53,359
easy if you.

303
00:17:53,279 --> 00:17:55,240
Speaker 6: Want him a lot, I'll make a foot swing around

304
00:17:55,279 --> 00:17:57,359
the moon and knees her in an unvalude approach curve.

305
00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:07,240
Speaker 7: It'll go find if we got enough fuel. Hey, somebody

306
00:18:07,279 --> 00:18:08,799
call me something wrong? Pop?

307
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:13,119
Speaker 3: Oh, I thought somebody was calling me asleep.

308
00:18:13,279 --> 00:18:15,759
Speaker 7: I swung your hammock around. We're breaking now. She is

309
00:18:15,799 --> 00:18:17,960
ahead the moon.

310
00:18:19,559 --> 00:18:25,880
Speaker 3: Sheen a thousand photographs there, that's Copernicus tycho.

311
00:18:26,039 --> 00:18:26,960
Speaker 7: You know it all right? Pop?

312
00:18:27,599 --> 00:18:30,920
Speaker 6: Where are you landing marimbrim between Aristellas and Archimedes.

313
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:35,599
Speaker 3: Oh it's about forty miles from the city, isn't it. Yeah,

314
00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:39,000
it won't be easy landing without ground approach radar will it.

315
00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:40,519
Speaker 7: I've done it before, not.

316
00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:43,119
Speaker 3: Without a second pilot to punch the centimeter.

317
00:18:43,519 --> 00:18:45,319
Speaker 7: You ought to have a mate's ticket, Pop, you know

318
00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:47,880
the whole routine. You must have really studied up.

319
00:18:48,039 --> 00:18:57,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, so I could to study until now. I feel

320
00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:58,519
as if I'm coming home.

321
00:18:58,839 --> 00:19:03,880
Speaker 7: Yes, golly, I'm taking her in. Got in full power.

322
00:19:04,039 --> 00:19:06,599
I get good Mac. Pop can't take a rough one.

323
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:10,279
Speaker 6: Shut up and give me the power. I'll do my best. Okay,

324
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:17,759
gotta meet a setting punch. Thank god, here we go.

325
00:19:32,519 --> 00:19:35,079
That was a lousy landing, Max, that'd to me to drift?

326
00:19:35,319 --> 00:19:36,319
How's our passenger?

327
00:19:36,599 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 7: Quiet? I look, I wouldn't make any bets. That landing stunk.

328
00:19:41,079 --> 00:19:46,039
You shut up. I did my best. Hey, Pop, he's alive.
