00:02:11In the fear-ridden years following the Great Atomic War,
00:02:15the Earth and its people had been reduced to a state of death and destruction.
00:02:19Those who had survived the tragedy began building anew,
00:02:23with a hope for the future, but still, the world remained divided.
00:02:27time, man-made boundaries stretched beyond mere countries, forcing the isolated separation
00:02:32of one vast hemisphere from another. These two conflicting powers became known as the
00:02:38North Hemis and the South Hemis. Heading South Hemis' top security project Red Planet was
00:02:44Dr. Albert Gordon. Working with him was his wife, Dr. Ruth Gordon. They and a carefully
00:02:51selected team of scientists had labored in secret for five years on the project which
00:02:56hoped to put the first man on the planet Mars. Now, just days before the launching,
00:03:02the first public information releases were being given to certain journalists who would
00:03:06spread the story to the world if the project were a success. If it met with failure, neither
00:03:12the citizens of South Hemis nor their rivals in the Northern Hemisphere would know that
00:03:17it had even been tried. Astronaut Craig Matthews was in charge of briefing a government journalist
00:03:22on the details. Information had been leaked from North Hemis that their scientists were
00:03:27also trying to reach Mars, and the pressures were building in both governments to make
00:03:32sure that their men landed on the planet first. Man-carrying space stations had been circling
00:03:38the Earth for several years, and trips to and from the stations were not unusual. The
00:03:44first step in project Red Planet was to transport the personnel in a normal manner to a specially
00:03:49equipped station. The second phase would be the actual launching from this artificial
00:03:55planet, where the spacecraft would no longer be subjected to the Earth's gravitational
00:04:00pull. Ground control will now take command for launching. Blast-off is set for 02100.
00:04:14All personnel must be at their stations.
00:04:35You've worked so hard. We've come so far.
00:04:40Just keep the faith and courage you've always shown.
00:04:43Dr. Gordon, forgive the intrusion. As personal representative of the President, I want to
00:04:51extend best wishes for the success of Project Red Planet from all the people of South Hemis.
00:04:58We're approaching second unit countdown.
00:05:00Our hopes for the future go with you.
00:05:07All visitors must leave the launching area. Passengers will board immediately.
00:05:13Take good care of her, Craig. Now you see that he does.
00:05:19I promise not to let her out of my atmosphere.
00:05:21He's always joking.
00:05:23You know, this flight to the space station could become just a routine stopover.
00:05:45An interplanet bus stop.
00:05:47I hope your mother approves of me.
00:05:53Do you think she does?
00:05:56Of course.
00:05:57Nancy, have you lost your confidence?
00:06:00Don't be silly.
00:06:02Countdown entering stage red. All personnel stand ready.
00:06:06Synchronized units now being switched over to master control.
00:06:10This is control.
00:06:13Attention personnel.
00:06:19Project Red Planet, prepare for flight countdown.
00:06:26Beginning countdown.
00:06:28Project Red Planet, prepare for flight countdown.

00:06:56Loading elevators are now being withdrawn.
00:06:59Countdown continues at 20.
00:07:01All stations prepare for zero red.
00:07:04Countdown continues at 10.
00:07:06Attention flight personnel.
00:07:07Loading elevators are now being withdrawn.
00:07:10Countdown continues at 20.
00:07:12All stations prepare for zero red.
00:07:15Countdown continues at 10.
00:07:30Zero red minus five.
00:07:32Project Red Planet, all units clear.
00:07:35Switch over to standby.
00:08:05Zero red minus five.
00:08:07Switch over to standby.
00:08:35Zero red.
00:09:05Zero red.
00:09:26Attention.
00:09:27All landing personnel report on flight deck.
00:09:31Standby to receive flight number 87
00:09:34from Earth.
00:10:04Have all preparations been completed?
00:10:24Yes, sir.
00:10:30Welcome, Dr. Gordon.
00:10:32It's good to see you.
00:10:34Hello, Paul.
00:10:35Commander Daniels?
00:10:37Right this way, gentlemen.
00:10:38My men will take care of your crew.
00:10:47Oh!
00:10:48Hey!
00:10:49Astronaut Johnson just blasted off from Mars.
00:10:55Tell us when you get there.
00:10:57I will if I can find a telephone.
00:10:59Don't reverse the charges.
00:11:03Yes, sir.
00:11:12Actually, we had the Mercury ready for you
00:11:14two days ahead of schedule.
00:11:16We've gained so much by assembling the ship here,
00:11:19not just the fuel and added rocket power,
00:11:22but we've been spared the atmospheric strain
00:11:24against the ship.
00:11:25Which could well mean the difference.
00:11:27Without a doubt.
00:11:29Turn on spaceship Mercury.
00:11:35It's not going to be easy, you know, staying behind.
00:11:38Now look, you were the one who said this flight
00:11:40wasn't going to be a spaceman's holiday,
00:11:42so just consider yourself as being lucky.
00:11:44I hope you're wrong.
00:11:45I think it really means you're more important here.
00:11:50Any changes?
00:11:51Not so far.
00:11:52Here are the micronic charts.
00:11:55The solar reports continue to verify our last calculations.
00:11:59Couldn't ask for better conditions.
00:12:01How long will it last?
00:12:02An estimated five or six weeks.
00:12:04Beyond that, we'd be taking a chance.
00:12:06If all continues as planned, we shouldn't have any problems.
00:12:09None whatsoever.
00:12:11Commander, we are receiving an encoded television wave.
00:12:17You can screen it for us here.
00:12:18Yes, sir.
00:12:21It couldn't be coming from one of our ships.
00:12:24All flights have been diverted, with the project in effect.
00:12:27We'll find out soon enough.
00:12:30We request your aid.
00:12:32Identify yourself and state the nature of your request.
00:12:36This is Captain Torrance and Dr. Martin
00:12:38aboard the ship Typhoon from North Hemis.
00:12:41We request permission to land for emergency repairs.
00:12:45I've informed our base.
00:12:47You have permission.
00:12:48We'll prepare for your ship to land.
00:12:54We'll trouble you as little as possible.
00:12:57I'll switch you to control.
00:13:03Attention, landing personnel on flight deck.
00:13:07Attention, stand by to receive unassisted landing.
00:13:12Repeat, stand by to receive unassisted landing.
00:13:17It's North Hemis ship.
00:13:39Of course you realize we must make our own repairs.
00:13:47THE END
00:14:01I want you to know how much we appreciate your assistance.
00:14:05If we could work this way, North and South combined,
00:14:10think of it, the advantages.
00:14:13I agree with that.
00:14:15To its eventuality, Captain Torrance.
00:14:20If the attitudes of our governments could somehow be changed.
00:14:25You know how politicians work.
00:14:27Always years behind science.
00:14:29What brought you into our radius?
00:14:32It was unintentional, I assure you.
00:14:35We were flight testing a new synergic curve pattern
00:14:40to lessen fuel consumption after orbit.
00:14:43Well, we've also been working on that.
00:14:46Oh, if only we were allowed to exchange data.
00:14:50There, politics instead of science again.
00:14:53Still, I believe we should try to instigate a new research exchange.
00:14:58We've all thought that for a long time.
00:15:01Maybe if we took the initial step.
00:15:05Mars is our immediate project.
00:15:09Mars?
00:15:10Now that you know.
00:15:14Spaceship Mercury.
00:15:19Have a look at it.
00:15:22This is the culmination of all our research.
00:15:27How close are you to its completion?
00:15:30Well, the ship itself has been ready for quite some time.
00:15:36We've just been waiting for the proper solar conditions.
00:15:40Your time plan?
00:15:41Yes, how soon?
00:15:42Countdown has already been set for tomorrow.
00:15:45If there are no drastic solar changes, we'll proceed with the plan.
00:15:50Any questions? May I ask you?
00:15:52We've already imposed enough. The hour is going late.
00:15:56Good luck on your flight tomorrow.
00:15:59Good night, Doctor.
00:16:01Until later.
00:16:02Good night.
00:16:03Good night.
00:16:13We had no indication of this.
00:16:15It may leave us no alternative.
00:16:17Don't take too much upon yourself.
00:16:23Yes, Doctor Martin.
00:16:25Come in.
00:16:28I hope you don't mind this intrusion.
00:16:30No, not at all. Be seated.
00:16:43After all these years, we can finally go.
00:16:47A discussion I've looked forward to.
00:16:49I've long admired your writings.
00:16:51That's an honor, coming from you.
00:16:55Doctor Martin, I've observed your ship.
00:16:59Anything unusual?
00:17:01It's designed for deep probe.
00:17:04Very similar to our Mercury.
00:17:06What is the Typhoon's flight range?
00:17:09As one scientist to another, I'd like to discuss the entire matter.
00:17:14But you must realize that it's entirely out of the question.
00:17:19Captain, do not attempt the flight.
00:17:21Regardless of what you believe, we cannot take any unnecessary risks.
00:17:25General, I can't accept defeat.
00:17:28If your ship is malfunctioning, you'd be merely throwing your life away,
00:17:31and with it the entire project.
00:17:33I understand your determination, but I must order you to return to the base.
00:17:37We cannot go back now.
00:17:39Captain Torrance! Captain Torrance!
00:17:47Dan, we've reached an impasse.
00:17:50I can only express my regrets.
00:17:52No more so than I, Dr. Gordon.
00:17:55I understand.
00:17:59Dr. Gordon, good night. Good night.
00:18:08It's decided. We leave at once.
00:18:11For North Hemis? No, for Mars.
00:18:14I think our friends will be somewhat surprised.
00:18:17Captain, it's not our main concern at this time.
00:18:20Our repairs may not hold up.
00:18:22I went over the entire system, and it proved out perfect.
00:18:26You checked it?
00:18:30Remember, my friend, what this could mean.
00:18:34I realize the situation completely.
00:18:37But do you?
00:18:58Good evening. Good evening, Paul.
00:19:01We came to work on our ship.
00:19:03Do you need any help?
00:19:05Not at the moment.
00:19:07Maybe tomorrow.
00:19:32All crew clear the flight deck without delay.
00:19:36What was the reason for doing that?
00:19:38Someone might get hurt in the blast-off.
00:19:41Too late now.
00:19:43Full power. Full power.
00:20:01It's the North Hemis ship.
00:20:31It's the North Hemis ship.
00:20:53Greg, someone's been hurt.
00:20:55There he is.
00:21:01There he is.
00:21:31There he is.
00:21:56The flight pattern of the typhoon is directed for Mars.
00:22:01They weren't ready.
00:22:04You're so right, but they were obsessed.
00:22:09How are you feeling?
00:22:11Not too bad.
00:22:13Just shaken. I'll be fine by flight time.
00:22:17Paul.
00:22:21Doctor, you wouldn't replace me now.
00:22:25Not at this point.
00:22:27I have no choice.
00:22:30Nancy, tell him I'm all right.
00:22:33The X-rays reveal a minor concussion has resulted.
00:22:37I'm sorry, Paul.
00:22:39We can't take the chance, Paul.
00:22:45Greg will replace you.
00:23:00Watch your step.
00:23:13This way, Nancy.
00:23:18Greg, I'm so happy Dr. Gordon chose you for the first flight.
00:23:22Mars, Nancy. Think about it.
00:23:24I am.
00:23:25Before you know it, I'll be back with you in South Hemis.
00:23:28Greg.
00:23:33Please, don't make me act like a little girl.
00:23:36You won't, I'm sure.
00:23:40Final call.
00:23:42A medallion with our names on it.
00:23:46Painted on the flag you place on Mars.
00:23:51I will.
00:23:58I love you.
00:24:28Greg!
00:24:59Greg!
00:25:01Greg!
00:25:28Begin our relay.
00:25:31This is Earth Control.
00:25:33Calling Project Red Planet.
00:25:36Stand by to checkpoint communication relay.
00:25:42Relay communication's in effect.
00:25:47Control ready.
00:25:52Are you ready?
00:25:56I'm ready, sir.
00:26:01Attention.
00:26:05Countdown ready.
00:26:07Recline. Switch to auto.
00:26:14Begin our relay.
00:26:31This is Earth Control.
00:26:33This is Red Planet.
00:26:35Stand by to checkpoint communication relay.
00:26:39Are you ready?
00:26:41I'm ready, sir.
00:26:43Are you ready?
00:26:45I'm ready, sir.
00:26:47Are you ready?
00:26:49I'm ready, sir.
00:26:51Are you ready?
00:26:53I'm ready, sir.
00:26:55Are you ready?
00:26:57I'm ready.
00:26:59Are you ready?
00:27:01I'm ready, sir.
00:27:03Are you ready?
00:27:05I'm ready, sir.
00:27:07Are you ready?
00:27:09I'm ready, sir.
00:27:11Are you ready?
00:27:13I'm ready, sir.
00:27:15Are you ready?
00:27:17I'm ready, sir.
00:27:19Are you ready?
00:27:21I'm ready, sir.
00:27:23Are you ready?
00:27:25I'm ready, sir.
00:27:27This is Red Planet.
00:27:29We are ready.
00:27:31Are you ready?
00:27:33I'm ready, sir.
00:27:35Are you ready?
00:27:37I'm ready, sir.
00:27:39We are ready, sir.
00:27:41Are you ready?
00:27:43I'm ready, sir.
00:27:45Temperature reading 0.934, rising.
00:27:55That checks.
00:27:58Say, what is this thing?
00:28:04Good luck charm?
00:28:06Something like that.
00:28:07Or pocket money for Mars.
00:28:09It's a medallion for history.
00:28:12So what is that?
00:28:13An asteroid?
00:28:14No.
00:28:15What's so interesting?
00:28:16I think it's an old friend of yours.
00:28:19Come here and see for yourself.
00:28:34To discover a satellite.
00:28:36That was my first dream.
00:28:38We'll see you on the way back.
00:28:40Incredible.
00:28:41Remaining in orbit so long, huh?
00:28:46It opened the way to outer space.
00:29:00That's final, General.
00:29:01Signing off.
00:29:02If South Hemis were to get to Mars before we did...
00:29:09But they won't.
00:29:12Our ship's perfect.
00:29:14Even the General admitted it.
00:29:17Our Hemis might have suffered for it.
00:29:20Something's wrong.
00:29:24Her course is changing.
00:29:29Ha.
00:29:30It couldn't be.
00:29:31Our angle is perfect.
00:29:32Can't you understand?
00:29:33I said it was changing!
00:29:34It won't hold.
00:29:35I have, twice, being pulled away by a powerful magnetic field.
00:29:41It's the sun.
00:29:46The directional rockets.
00:29:48Won't they correct it?
00:29:50They might if we fired all of them.
00:29:54We have no choice.
00:29:55Fire them.
00:29:56I intend to.
00:29:58I intend to.
00:29:59I intend to.
00:30:00I intend to.
00:30:01I intend to.
00:30:02I intend to.
00:30:03I intend to.
00:30:04I intend to.
00:30:05Just hope it's enough.
00:30:06Get ready.
00:30:14Positions.
00:30:16Recline.
00:30:30Let's monitor her.
00:30:31Yes.
00:30:35And continue dental reports.
00:30:36That's her.
00:30:38Stand ready for checkpoint on third cycle.
00:30:42Spaceship Mercury passing through nearest proximity
00:30:45of sun's periphery.
00:30:46Transmit your readings at 30 second intervals.
00:30:50Before I return to unified control,
00:30:54I want you to know that our latest figures coincide
00:30:57with the reports from the space station,
00:30:59and the first flight to Mars continues in perfect trajectory.
00:31:03There it is, Craig.
00:31:06Mars.
00:31:08What a magnificent sight.
00:31:10It looks like it's just waiting for us.
00:31:18A distress signal.
00:31:23How could that be?
00:31:25Unless.
00:31:26Emergency.
00:31:27Spaceship Typhoon calling.
00:31:29Emergency.
00:31:30We are being pulled into the sun.
00:31:33Our auxiliary rockets lack the power to hold.
00:31:36I repeat, we are being drawn into the sun.
00:31:40No power to hold.
00:31:43The magnetic radius.
00:31:46Is there anything we can do?
00:31:49Check position.
00:31:52Within radius 0.14.
00:31:58Could we possibly get to them?
00:32:03We have the power.
00:32:04I realize that, but what about the fuel?
00:32:09Course on Typhoon.
00:32:11Yes, sir.
00:32:13Two lives are at stake, and we can save them.
00:32:17But the project.
00:32:19The project is for man.
00:32:22You won't change your decision, sir?
00:32:23We can't.
00:32:25Ready?
00:32:27Recline.
00:32:33Ready.
00:32:44Prepare for return.
00:33:04This is our last signal.
00:33:06Our rocket power has failed.
00:33:08To withstand the sun.
00:33:14Noise.
00:33:16Has contact been made?
00:33:18It's meteors.
00:33:19Being fired from the sun's heat.
00:33:21The pole.
00:33:22Prepare yourself to resist the pole.
00:33:28We have failed.
00:33:31We have failed.
00:33:33Our eagerness failed us.
00:33:35We needed more time for preparation.
00:33:51No more.
00:33:57Calling Typhoon.
00:33:59Calling Typhoon.
00:34:01This is Spaceship Mercury.
00:34:03Can you hear us?
00:34:05This is Radio Typhoon.
00:34:07Listen carefully.
00:34:08It's too late to help us now.
00:34:10For your own safety, don't even try.
00:34:13Continue on your course.
00:34:19You see?
00:34:20They want to spare us.
00:34:22Radiation up.
00:34:30It's hopeless.
00:34:32I don't blame you.
00:34:34I wanted it to.
00:34:40Don't torture yourself.
00:34:42It's all over.
00:34:59No more.
00:35:11Attention.
00:35:12All personnel project red planet.
00:35:15Report to the main control room immediately.
00:35:18Attention.
00:35:19All personnel project red planet.
00:35:22Report to the main control room immediately.
00:35:25All stations are red alert.
00:35:27I repeat.
00:35:28All stations are red alert.
00:35:43Mercury?
00:35:45Yes.
00:35:49What's the other object?
00:35:52We're not positive yet.
00:35:54It created a change of course.
00:35:57We're waiting now for some word.
00:36:10Speed set.
00:36:13Block control.
00:36:16Get ready.
00:36:17I'm all set, hatch open, be careful.
00:36:48If you wait, balance.
00:36:50I checked the pressure.
00:36:52Remember.
00:36:53Yes?
00:36:54You'll have only a matter of minutes
00:36:56to effect the transfer.
00:36:58I'll make it.
00:37:01Just hold it steady.
00:37:48Captain.
00:37:48Pick him up.
00:37:50I think we have only a few more minutes.
00:38:47It'll be all right.
00:39:09Just try not to relax, okay?
00:39:12Now let's get this thing off.
00:39:15There, now how do you feel, huh?
00:39:19Better?
00:39:22Let me help you, Dr. Martin.
00:39:38Craig, the figures were right.
00:39:42Could we make it back to Earth?
00:39:44We've consumed too much of the fuel.
00:40:15That's Anchor.
00:40:17But the chart doesn't show the terrain.
00:40:20But we have to land there.
00:40:25Listen, Craig.
00:40:26Yes, sir.
00:40:27Emergency fuel must come by rocket from South Hemis.
00:40:33What could have gone wrong?
00:40:36Not even a signal.
00:40:38Could it be ionosphere blackout?
00:40:41I doubt it.
00:40:44But perhaps if we...
00:40:47Sir, from Spaceship Mercury.
00:40:49At last, some word.
00:40:51We lost contact after receiving the message.
00:40:56Our fuel supply is exhausted.
00:40:59Landing on Mars is no longer possible.
00:41:02We'll attempt to land on Anchor,
00:41:05which is in the Martian orbit.
00:41:08If we're successful, we'll require a fuel rocket.
00:41:14And if we don't, we'll have to land on Mars.
00:41:17We'll have to land on Mars.
00:41:19We'll have to land on Mars.
00:41:21We'll have to land on Mars.
00:41:23We'll have to land on Mars.
00:41:25We'll have to land on Mars.
00:41:27We'll have to land on Mars.
00:41:29We'll have to land on Mars.
00:41:31We'll have to land on Mars.
00:41:33We'll have to land on Mars.
00:41:35We'll have to land on Mars.
00:41:37We'll have to land on Mars.
00:41:39We'll have to land on Mars.
00:41:41We'll have to land on Mars.
00:41:43We'll have to land on Mars.
00:42:13No!
00:42:15No!
00:42:17Nothing over here.
00:42:45over the ship doctor. Any damage? Everything appears in order. Then we can leave if we
00:42:51get the fuel. Probably the rocket is already on the way. Come on, get ready. We'll have
00:42:56to set up the guidance antenna to receive the fuel rocket. Come in Dr. Gordon. Commander,
00:43:05the fuel rocket launching has been completed. We can rescue them, if their guidance antenna
00:43:11can land the fuel rocket. Then the outcome is in their hands.
00:43:41There seems to be a magnetic interference. Could it prevent you from landing the fuel
00:43:58rocket, doctor? Yes, but I believe the condition is diminishing with the planet's rotation
00:44:03around Mars. Look. Beautiful. The planet does absorb the sun's rays. Don't worry, we'll
00:44:33make it. Then life must exist there. In all probability. Just think, a new world is almost
00:44:43within our grasp. Imagine the discoveries we could make, and we almost got there. He
00:45:01hadn't sacrificed for us, you might have attained your goal. A life has more value
00:45:07than any goal a man can strive for. Let's relax and celebrate. We have two reasons.
00:45:36Craig's forthcoming marriage to the nicest girl I know, and the rocket bringing fuel.
00:45:41Success to both. It's strange, any other time, a fuel rocket couldn't compare with Nancy. But
00:45:57now, I'm not so sure. Subdue the universe, but woman will always subdue man. Now, to business.
00:46:05The guidance antenna is still directing the rocket. It should be in our landing range presently.
00:46:13Let's get ready to receive it.
00:46:35The angle of entry is perfect. Switch to automatic landing control. It should indicate
00:46:57reversal stage. Does your reading check? Yes.
00:47:27Members of the space agency, our observatory reports that the pilotless fuel rocket has
00:47:40crashed on Angkor. Everything possible is being done to establish further contact with our
00:47:48astronauts. As soon as we have any word, you will be notified. Thank you.
00:47:57Craig, you haven't given up hope, have you? No. We're alive, and that's what's important.
00:48:14You're right.
00:48:33The transmitter's strong enough, the signal should be received.
00:48:36It will be. So, I've seen a man more ingenious than Dr. Gordon.
00:48:44Any sign at all that the interference will decrease? No, sir. Not yet.
00:49:14Have you tried every wavelength? Yes.
00:49:24The distance and time element, everything checks out. I know I could make it.
00:49:30Report from flight station. We are still unable to make contact. A piloted fuel rocket is our
00:49:36last course of action. I strongly recommend Paul Clinton as the man best qualified to
00:49:43undertake the flight. This is not an easy decision for me to make. A piloted rocket
00:49:53ship still requires additional testing. The commander could very well be right, but still...
00:50:03If there is some way to be certain that our men are still alive,
00:50:07I'll leave the decision to you, Paul.
00:50:12There's no other way. I have to go.
00:50:36So,
00:50:43so,
00:50:55so,
00:51:05Mercury, calling Earth. I'll keep trying. Calling Earth.
00:51:24So,
00:51:54so,
00:52:24so,
00:52:54so,
00:53:24so,
00:53:55so,
00:54:05so,
00:54:24so,
00:54:34so,
00:54:51now.
00:55:04Dr. Gordon, Dr. Gordon, look!
00:55:12Out there!
00:55:22Greg, let's go. Yes, sir.
00:55:34It's Paul Clinton. Doctor, the creatures.
00:55:54One of our fuel rockets. Paul, what creatures?
00:56:04I know they're out there. How else do you explain the condition of Paul's body?
00:56:27We may never know the answer, but he gave his life so that we might go on living.
00:56:35That we will always know.
00:57:00We'll be taking off shortly.
00:57:02Earth.
00:59:32Earth.
00:59:50Passengers now disembarking at ramp seven.
00:59:53Mother Matthews! Mother Matthews, over here!
01:00:05Greg will be here shortly. He's a hero. I'm just so excited. Thank you, thank you.
01:00:10Oh, I can hardly believe it. You're so very kind, children. I'm so thrilled. This is my aunt.
01:00:18This is my aunt. Oh, I've never been so happy and proud. Oh, I'm just too excited even to speak.
01:00:25Attention! Here is the latest bulletin on the spaceship Mercury.
01:00:29Landing will take place within the next several minutes.
01:00:32We are standing by to give you a detailed description of this historic event.
01:00:48So
01:01:05figure out
01:01:18so
01:01:48♪♪
01:01:58♪♪
01:02:08♪♪
01:02:18♪♪
01:02:28♪♪
01:02:38♪♪
01:02:48♪♪
01:02:58♪♪
01:03:04Craig!
01:03:05Craig!
01:03:06♪♪
01:03:12Just thinking about you...
01:03:16made me know...
01:03:19we'd come back.
01:03:20I had faith.
01:03:23You're a wonderful woman.
01:03:24I love you.
01:03:25♪♪
01:03:30Although the first attempt by man to reach Mars had met with failure,
01:03:34a greater insight to the real problems of mankind had been achieved.
01:03:39The way was now open for both sides to begin working together in peace.
01:03:44And out of their combined knowledge and effort,
01:03:47all men would come to know a better world in which to live.
01:03:50And one day, perhaps, the entire universe.
