When Worlds Collide

00:01:32 Needles in a heavenly haystack.
00:01:36 There are more stars in the heavens
00:01:42 Through telescopes,
00:01:47 the infinitesimal corners
00:01:50 seeking new discoveries,
00:01:53 hoping to better understand
00:01:57 observatories dedicated
00:02:02 often are set in high and remote places.
00:02:05 But there is none more remote
00:02:10 in this part of south Africa.
00:02:17 If our calculations prove to be correct
00:02:20 this will be the most frightening discovery
00:02:26 These two bodies have travelled almost
00:02:35 - Is that Randall?
00:02:38 Stanley, I want Randall
00:02:41 The plates are ready, catalogued
00:02:45 - Here are tonight's plates.
00:02:47 I told Professor Hendron
00:02:53 Paul, Stanley, it won't be necessary
00:03:08 ZS, MAP, Dave Randall
00:03:11 Cabin monoplane,
00:03:16 Hello, Randall. This is Russ Curtis,
00:03:20 Visibility fine. Take runway three.
00:03:23 Approach from southwest at 500.
00:03:25 There's a car waiting to take you
00:03:32 Thank you, Mount Kenna Field!
00:03:56 - Hello, Randall.
00:03:58 You must have been held up.
00:04:02 I had a friend's aunt
00:04:06 - I'm Emery Bronson.
00:04:09 - You've been well recommended.
00:04:12 I understand all you want
00:04:15 Did you bring your passport
00:04:19 Yes. But who gets delivery ofwhat?
00:04:21 Your recommendation said I could depend
00:04:25 I don't care what you're doing.
00:04:29 - and when I get paid.
00:04:32 It's just that secrecy
00:04:35 Fly to Lisbon, then take
00:04:39 The delivery will be made to Dr Hendron
00:04:43 Here are several poses of Dr Hendron.
00:04:52 The delivery must be made
00:04:55 - To Dr Hendron only.
00:05:00 You'll require this for expenses.
00:05:08 I'm supposed to get $1,500 plus expenses.
00:05:11 Hendron will pay on delivery.
00:05:14 Time is all that counts.
00:05:18 With me, doctor, money always matters.
00:05:21 Perhaps now.
00:05:23 But the day may arrive
00:05:26 Not to you, nor anyone.
00:05:29 When that happens to me,
00:05:38 Good luck, Randall.
00:05:59 There was another radiogram
00:06:02 Thank you.
00:06:04 - I hope you're enjoying your trip.
00:06:38 Honestly, the inspection takes longer
00:06:41 I brought Clara a fewthings.
00:06:44 50% duty?
00:06:58 I think that's the man,
00:07:01 I'll see.
00:07:07 - David Randall?
00:07:11 May I see your passport, please?
00:07:15 Thank you.
00:07:19 Fine.
00:07:20 I'll handle this, Jim.
00:07:23 That brown one over there.
00:07:28 Right this way, please.
00:07:33 - Here's your man.
00:07:36 I'm Joyce Hendron,
00:07:39 We're to go straight to the observatory.
00:07:42 This is better than a motorcycle escort.
00:07:44 You'll need a pass to get out
00:07:49 - Thank you.
00:07:51 Right this way, Mr Randall.
00:07:53 Mr Randall. Mr Randall!
00:07:58 Mr Randall, I'm Donovan
00:08:01 - Some other time.
00:08:04 Here's a cheque to your order.
00:08:08 No thanks.
00:08:24 I can't imagine how..The Sentinel..
00:08:28 But it's difficult to keep
00:08:31 I'm glad you turned them down.
00:08:34 You knowwhat it would mean if the public
00:08:38 of course.
00:08:40 We've been praying Dr Bronson is wrong -
00:08:43 that these pictures will show
00:08:49 Don't you find yourself wishing...
00:08:54 No, it's better to know.
00:08:58 I wish I had your courage.
00:09:02 But I'm frightened.
00:09:04 As frightened as all those people
00:09:10 I haven't the courage
00:09:29 Joyce!
00:09:31 - I'm glad you waited for me.
00:09:33 Tony, this is Mr Randall.
00:09:35 - How are you?
00:09:38 Alice, didn't my father know
00:09:41 I told Alice not to bother him.
00:09:43 He's in a meeting
00:09:45 They'll want to see you right away.
00:09:49 - You smoke?
00:09:52 Have a south African one.
00:09:58 You part of this deal, doctor?
00:10:02 No, I confine my gazing
00:10:06 I'm an MD.
00:10:08 I gather you're not an astronomer either.
00:10:11 I'm just a high-priced messenger boy
00:10:14 who's beginning to doubt
00:10:17 They should stick
00:10:20 Astronomy is a very exact science.
00:10:22 But when they say Doomsday is around
00:10:26 Who's been telling you that?
00:10:31 Mr Randall, come right this way.
00:10:33 Hello, Tony, come along if you want to.
00:10:36 - Please...
00:10:38 I have people waiting.
00:10:40 - I'm supposed to make sure.
00:10:44 They check.
00:10:50 Who told you that, about Doomsday?
00:10:53 Why doc, I thought
00:11:02 Put it on the desk, Randall, please.
00:11:05 Thank you, dear.
00:11:07 Dr Bronson said I would get $1,500...
00:11:09 - I'll take care of it.
00:11:13 Hold still, please.
00:11:19 oh, thank you.
00:11:30 Would you mind waiting in the anteroom?
00:11:32 He knows all the details, Dad.
00:11:34 Dr Bronson and I have no secrets.
00:11:37 Has Bronson been at this study long?
00:11:39 Two years. But I first heard
00:11:43 He wanted me to check his findings.
00:11:45 Give this data to DA.
00:11:53 D for differential. A for analyser.
00:11:56 Naturally.
00:11:58 We'll check these through the viewer.
00:12:00 - Dr Hendron, the key.
00:12:26 Sometimes I wish I didn't know
00:12:30 He rarely leaves any margin for error.
00:12:36 This was Bronson's first discovery.
00:12:38 Bellus, a star, a dozen times
00:12:41 has been approaching earth
00:12:44 Bronson's second discovery -
00:12:47 Bronson named it Zyra
00:12:51 it revolves around Bellus more rapidly
00:12:54 than earth revolves around the sun.
00:12:58 This is in the constellation of scorpio.
00:13:02 Dr Frye, notice the position
00:13:06 Yes, I see.
00:13:16 But here again, Bellus and Zyra
00:13:19 Just how fast they've been moving
00:13:23 are among the mathematical problems
00:13:26 by our differential analyser.
00:13:36 Zyra is about the same size as our earth.
00:13:39 Both these bodies are coming
00:13:42 If Bronson's readings are correct,
00:13:46 How far away are they?
00:13:48 The calculator will be precise.
00:13:51 Billion? Let people start worrying
00:13:56 You've flown ships faster than sound.
00:13:59 These bodies
00:14:01 and could be here within one year.
00:14:03 All this depends on Bronson being correct.
00:14:06 The planet Zyra will pass close enough
00:14:10 oceans will be torn from their depths.
00:14:13 Tidal waves will sweep in from the coasts.
00:14:16 There will be giant earthquakes.
00:14:17 Handfuls of people may survive
00:14:21 We'll make them.
00:14:23 Whatever help my factories can give,
00:14:27 It will be useless. Soon after,
00:14:32 our world will end.
00:14:47 There is no error.
00:15:32 I always wanted to do this.
00:15:49 It's funny. I keep thinking about
00:15:52 He was a patient of mine
00:15:55 one of those incurable cases.
00:15:58 I used to wonder how he felt
00:16:00 the day he asked me
00:16:04 Now I think I know.
00:16:16 - Joyce?
00:16:18 Let's not put off getting married.
00:16:21 There isn't any reason to wait,
00:16:24 I promised Dad I'd wait.
00:16:28 Your father will be the first to agree.
00:16:36 We're entitled to be selfish
00:16:39 I'd feel better if I talked to Dad first.
00:16:42 He'll be home the day after tomorrow.
00:16:49 - Dr Drake?
00:16:51 There is a call for you from the hospital.
00:16:53 Thank you.
00:16:55 EXcuse me, I'll be right back.
00:17:01 I never used to believe my mother's stories
00:17:03 about Americans
00:17:06 I thought she was boasting
00:17:09 But this is proof of progress.
00:17:17 Look, stargazer,
00:17:20 How much is seven times $2.50?
00:17:24 Real progress, $17.50 per bottle.
00:17:27 - Tell me something, stargazer.
00:17:30 You and the doctor going to get married?
00:17:32 I don't know.
00:17:34 Maybe you could tell me
00:17:37 Why?
00:17:38 I'd like to stop being
00:17:44 Bronson gets in tomorrow.
00:17:48 the day was coming when money
00:17:53 May I trouble you for another light?
00:17:56 Thank you, Madam.
00:17:59 This is the day. Money to burn!
00:18:36 I must ask one question
00:18:43 I hope I have your confidence.
00:18:45 You are satisfied there is no error
00:18:50 and that all the facts are correct?
00:18:53 Yes, sir.
00:18:55 The effect ofZyra's passing
00:18:58 on the afternoon of July 24th.
00:19:08 What about the giant star, Bellus?
00:19:11 Can the doctor tell us
00:19:15 19 days later.
00:19:17 Bellus will crush the earth
00:19:26 This is not a publicity seeking campaign.
00:19:29 We are aware that most of our
00:19:33 But believing what we do,
00:19:44 Therefore, I ask you, Dr Hendron,
00:19:46 if it is with complete certainty
00:19:49 that you say the world will end
00:19:52 Precisely that, sir.
00:20:07 There is a very remote possibility,
00:20:11 The world will be destroyed,
00:20:15 our world will end on August 12th,
00:20:19 There is no margin for error in that.
00:20:22 But we believe that Zyra
00:20:25 We believe,
00:20:27 that some form ofvegetation
00:20:30 You are proposing
00:20:33 and move to...Zyra?
00:20:37 No, but we hope that with God's guidance,
00:20:42 A 20th century Noah's ark.
00:20:45 As many as can be built
00:20:49 Eventually, as Zyra and Bellus
00:20:52 even a layman will see the danger.
00:20:54 As a train looms in the distance,
00:20:58 With enough funds, labour and material,
00:21:01 Dr Frye believes rockets can be built
00:21:05 But eight months is very little time.
00:21:08 only if work begins immediately
00:21:12 If you wait until the danger is visible,
00:21:16 Bellus and Zyra
00:21:22 Dr Ottinger,
00:21:26 Gentlemen, my colleagues,
00:21:30 Professor of astronomy at Cornwall
00:21:35 President of the International
00:21:39 have examined
00:21:42 submitted by Drs Hendron and Bronson.
00:21:45 Our findings show
00:21:50 No reason to spend billions of dollars
00:21:53 to build spaceships
00:21:57 Suppose they were built.
00:22:00 Do either of you believe spaceships
00:22:03 It is theoretically possible.
00:22:06 I believe in theories. But when you say
00:22:11 you are out of the realm of theory
00:22:15 Even if the world were to end,
00:22:18 would it be less unpleasant to die in space
00:22:21 than here, on firm ground?
00:22:24 The world will not end.
00:22:26 Certainly, these new bodies
00:22:29 Heavenly bodies frequently do.
00:22:35 Predicting the end of the world
00:22:37 is an annual crackpot event in our society.
00:22:40 An attempt to corner
00:22:43 But I did not expect a man
00:22:47 to join this headline-hunting parade.
00:23:03 Read all about it!
00:23:07 End ofthe world just around the corner.
00:23:11 Read all about it!
00:23:34 Let's be thankful for small favours.
00:23:37 The subcommittee didn't believe us.
00:23:41 No one believes us.
00:23:42 How will we interest
00:23:46 I'll buy you a start on your ship!
00:23:50 that I contributed to salvaging
00:23:54 I'm older and richer than you are.
00:23:57 I'll arrange the lease on a large camp -
00:24:01 Between us,
00:24:03 Wonderful, Spiro!
00:24:06 I'll arrange the details
00:24:11 Gentlemen.
00:24:19 - Have you got a minute, Dad?
00:24:23 We have an appointment
00:24:25 Will he give you the money you need?
00:24:28 I hope so.
00:24:30 Tony's outside.
00:24:32 - I'm sure he didn't come to see me.
00:24:36 I don't blame him.
00:24:41 I've liked Tony more than any other man.
00:24:46 I was always sure
00:24:50 There isn't time for uncertainty.
00:24:54 Do you want to spend
00:24:57 I wish I could answer.
00:24:59 I suppose it really doesn't matter...
00:25:04 - Not what you want?
00:25:07 Dad, I'm so mixed up.
00:25:12 Do I knowthis subject of your confusion?
00:25:15 Dave Randall.
00:25:20 I told myself I like being with him
00:25:29 - Yes?
00:25:31 Tell Dr Frye and send in Mr Stanton.
00:25:35 You told me to answer the question.
00:25:39 And give me two minutes
00:25:43 to figure out an eXcuse
00:25:46 Oh, thanks, Dad! Thanks!
00:25:59 - Dr Hendron.
00:26:01 - This is Dr Frye.
00:26:04 Dr Frye is the dean
00:26:07 All right, I'm here safe and sound.
00:26:15 Will this Noah's ark
00:26:18 In theory. on some engineers.
00:26:21 Your observatory trustees,
00:26:24 tell me you have an equipped camp
00:26:29 - Millions!
00:26:31 I'm just weighing the percentages.
00:26:34 Your word against other astronomers.
00:26:38 - They think you're a crackpot.
00:26:44 - It will mean liquidating some interests.
00:26:47 Their salvation doesn't interest me.
00:26:50 I'm no humanitarian like Marston
00:26:55 What are the chances of existence
00:26:58 We don't know.
00:27:02 - Millions for theories!
00:27:05 If I thought it was, I wouldn't be here.
00:27:11 - But I select who goes with us.
00:27:16 There may be space for 40 human beings,
00:27:20 The minimum for a new life.
00:27:24 I reserve that privilege.
00:27:27 You admit you don't relish dying.
00:27:29 You're willing to put up the money
00:27:33 you'll be among the few
00:27:36 That makes my proposition simple.
00:27:39 We'll do the picking together.
00:27:43 Why not? Why should you be the one
00:27:48 The proposition still stands.
00:27:56 You know I can't refuse. Build it.
00:28:19 You are the men selected.
00:28:22 Gentlemen,
00:28:27 Instead of taking off
00:28:31 we will conserve fuel by using a mile-long
00:28:36 The ship will be cradled
00:28:40 which will be automatically released.
00:28:42 At this point,
00:28:45 The power of all engines
00:28:48 out of earth's gravitational pull.
00:28:52 until we reach
00:28:55 when the ship will be operated
00:28:58 Similar rocket ships are also being
00:29:03 Now about our camp
00:29:06 Dave Randall, who is assisting
00:29:10 Thanks, Dr Frye.
00:29:12 First, you were selected because you are
00:29:18 Agricultural students and mechanics,
00:29:21 The project needs you
00:29:25 who are healthy and free
00:29:28 There is no guarantee
00:29:32 But those to make the flight
00:29:35 sometime before the worlds collide.
00:29:37 only about 40 persons can be taken
00:29:40 and already more than 600 people
00:30:34 Go down to the bunker first.
00:30:52 Joyce Hendron, please.
00:30:53 Take your new arrivals to dormitory C.
00:31:01 - Got the cards for this group?
00:31:04 - Are my cards ready?
00:31:07 All right, fellas, this way.
00:31:09 Thanks. I'll leave these at the clinic.
00:31:12 Follow me, girls.
00:31:14 Dr Frye, please, Dr Frye.
00:31:17 There is a call for you
00:31:21 Julie!
00:31:27 See you later.
00:31:29 Check in at the medical clinic
00:31:33 Attention, new arrivals.
00:31:35 Check in at the medical clinic
00:31:44 Dr Bronson, please,
00:32:17 Attention, main garage.
00:32:19 Two jeeps are needed immediately
00:32:25 Animals nowwaiting
00:32:47 - Hello, Tony.
00:32:53 - Did you have a nice trip?
00:32:57 Dr Ottinger asked me
00:33:00 for a conference
00:33:03 I'll put these new cards in the file.
00:33:16 - Is this the new design?
00:33:18 The drawings came while you were away.
00:33:32 Bronson tells me Ottinger
00:33:35 have jumped over
00:33:38 That will end the newspapers
00:33:41 Stanton's folly!
00:33:44 they'll wish they had
00:33:46 They admit our calculations are correct
00:33:50 Even in other countries where ships
00:33:55 - And you?
00:33:58 Always theories.
00:34:02 - Aren't you ever positive?
00:34:05 A government representative
00:34:08 They will be evacuated
00:34:10 What provisions have you made
00:34:17 - I haven't thought about it.
00:34:19 I don't deal in theories.
00:34:22 Ferris! Bring in those boxes.
00:34:25 I brought enough rifles
00:34:28 - There'll be no panic.
00:34:31 Once the havoc is over, every mother's
00:34:35 People know only a handful
00:34:38 You've spent too much time with the stars.
00:34:41 You don't know about the law of
00:34:46 You don't knowwhat your civilised people
00:34:50 I do, because I'd cling if I had to kill
00:34:54 We're the lucky ones
00:34:58 And we'll use those guns
00:35:04 Ferris! Ferris!
00:35:07 There's no question that crisis impends.
00:35:10 The secretary is on his way.
00:35:19 My friends, it is imperative
00:35:24 This is a matter of life or death.
00:35:27 Your lives
00:35:31 At one o'clock on July 24th,
00:35:34 Zyra, a new planet, will pass
00:35:38 it will cause mass destruction.
00:35:41 There is no doubt about
00:35:43 Remember, there is no doubt.
00:35:48 whole populations must have been
00:35:52 Plans have been made
00:36:01 When I was a kid, I read a book
00:36:04 I was so scared, I didn't dare sleep.
00:36:08 Then in the morning,
00:36:11 everything looked so wonderful,
00:36:14 Life was beautiful all over again.
00:36:17 The same sun will be shining
00:36:21 Look, stargazer,
00:36:26 The past couple of months,
00:36:30 the few to make the trip
00:36:33 Scientists like you or your father,
00:36:37 You'll have things to offer.
00:36:39 But you won't be needing aerial taXi
00:36:44 Dad promised me that...
00:36:49 Thanks, but Noah would have turned
00:36:57 I'm not applying for this trip.
00:37:01 The ship's cargo is limited.
00:37:04 I weigh as much as a couple of lambs,
00:37:07 three dozen chickens,
00:37:10 We're coming in.
00:37:13 Randall, calling Plateau Tower.
00:37:20 Schedules of train,
00:37:23 will be made available in all countries.
00:37:32 Attention, please.
00:37:35 The commanding general
00:37:39 This is an official order.
00:37:41 The evacuation will now proceed
00:37:45 There will be planes enough for all.
00:37:49 Families will not be separated for long.
00:37:53 Families will only be separated
00:37:57 Women and children will now proceed
00:38:16 Never before
00:38:18 has humanity felt so close to God.
00:38:21 As Zyra ineXorably rushes toward us
00:38:24 perhaps to destroy the earth,
00:38:26 men and women of all races and creeds
00:38:28 pause to think, to pray and to atone.
00:38:32 As evacuation of coastal cities
00:38:35 tales of acts of heroism and sacrifice
00:38:38 poured into newspaper offices.
00:38:41 With few exceptions,
00:38:42 transportation and utility workers
00:38:44 volunteered to remain at their posts
00:38:47 until the evacuation is completed.
00:38:49 Overnight, populations of inland cities
00:38:51 were more than doubled.
00:38:53 Deserted, the once great city of New York
00:38:58 Ten million mighty roaring machines
00:39:01 waiting for the approach of Zyra.
00:39:04 The silence, an eerie foretelling
00:39:09 at one o'clock, the hour of doom!
00:39:39 According to your figures,
00:39:41 by now we were supposed to feel
00:39:45 Tidal waves, oceans torn from their beds...
00:39:51 Millions of dollars for a false alarm.
00:39:54 Ottinger called you a crackpot.
00:39:56 All you scientists are crackpots.
00:39:59 Nothing is going to happen.
00:40:12 Ferris!
00:40:38 - Are you all right?
00:42:57 Attention! The ship is breaking
00:43:29 Move those l-beams to the ship!
00:43:41 Go to the crane and use the hook
00:43:51 Lower the block!
00:44:19 Look out! The crane is falling.
00:44:26 Bronson!
00:44:52 This is Emergency Camp 9 again.
00:44:55 Is anyone left?
00:44:58 We are located 11 miles
00:45:04 That's about 100 miles from here.
00:45:06 There is desperate need here
00:45:09 Anything else for the helicopter, doctor?
00:45:11 Those boxes. I'll bring the rest.
00:45:14 Repeating - we are remaining on the air.
00:45:17 Can anyone hear us?
00:45:20 We need drinking water
00:45:23 plasma and penicillin.
00:45:26 You needn't come, Randall.
00:45:29 - I've done a lot of parcel dropping.
00:45:33 Sounds like somebody rubbed
00:45:36 That's an excellent diagnosis.
00:45:40 You're the doctor, you name it.
00:45:43 We need drinking water
00:45:46 plasma and penicillin.
00:45:49 Later. Come on.
00:45:51 Can anyone help?
00:47:48 What's that?
00:49:36 For a minute, I thought maybe now
00:49:42 I gave it a passing thought.
00:49:58 We cannot postpone the inevitable.
00:50:00 This meeting is to choose those
00:50:05 As you know, human cargo must be
00:50:11 Every pound consumes fuel,
00:50:14 which we cannot waste
00:50:17 About 900 lbs
00:50:21 Mr Stanton, Dr Frye, my daughter,
00:50:32 Unless there is some objection we intend
00:50:36 our latest addition to the camp.
00:50:41 To again emphasise our fuel problem,
00:50:44 most of it will be consumed
00:50:48 once this has been accomplished,
00:50:51 until we come into the gravitational pull
00:50:54 In turning the ship completely around
00:50:57 every ounce of fuel
00:51:03 Dr Frye and I hope
00:51:07 It would be unwise for a man
00:51:11 while a man working at his side
00:51:14 In this envelope is a list of numbers
00:51:18 In these boxes
00:51:22 The one on the left for the women,
00:51:25 Each ofyou will select and keep one disc.
00:51:28 This list will be posted
00:51:32 shortly before the take off.
00:51:35 Is this plan satisfactory?
00:51:42 If there are no objections,
00:51:49 This is the men's box.
00:51:59 Your boX is here.
00:52:01 You pick both numbers.
00:52:12 This is the women's box.
00:52:14 You're already listed.
00:52:42 Hello, Dave.
00:52:45 Not to quarrel about your sense of ethics -
00:52:49 I haven't any more right
00:52:52 I'll grant you that.
00:52:55 I want to do things according to Hoyle.
00:52:58 But Joyce is pretty important to me.
00:53:00 - And to me.
00:53:03 I'd do anything to ensure her chances.
00:53:07 It isn't a free ride for Joyce.
00:53:11 No more than some others.
00:53:13 We're stretching the point
00:53:16 Why not for her sake,
00:53:22 Look, doctor. I've wrestled
00:53:26 I can give you a dozen reasons
00:53:29 Give me one good reason to include me.
00:53:31 She wants you, Dave.
00:53:33 That'll change. Tony will be there.
00:53:36 She's used to having him around.
00:53:39 They would have been married
00:53:43 Anyhow, why worry?
00:53:47 You didn't take any number from that boX.
00:53:51 I had the exact number of discs in it.
00:53:54 one for every man and woman
00:53:58 If you had taken a number,
00:54:01 Look, doctor. The drawing is over.
00:54:05 You can't issue new numbers
00:54:09 among the lucky winners.
00:54:11 It's about time I donated something
00:54:14 I won't be needed. I never have been.
00:54:17 I didn't give up much by not drawing.
00:54:23 Leaving me will save fuel.
00:54:28 And I hope you won't say anything
00:54:51 Attention, everyone!
00:54:52 Bellus growing larger.
00:54:55 And with every hour
00:54:58 More welders are needed
00:55:01 Please rush!
00:55:11 Seven days left.
00:55:13 We're falling behind schedule.
00:55:15 Trucks are waiting to load plasma
00:55:21 Less than six days left.
00:55:24 We're still behind schedule.
00:55:26 Construction Crew 5,
00:55:46 This engine's all right.
00:56:21 I'll take it.
00:56:27 It will work out all right, Joyce.
00:56:34 Please.
00:56:38 only 79 hours to the collision with Bellus.
00:56:41 We're still more than three hours
00:57:44 - Worried?
00:57:49 This ship is really well put together.
00:57:51 If anything can make it to the new world,
00:57:55 - Dave?
00:57:57 How long would it take
00:58:00 A few weeks, maybe.
00:58:02 But Dr Frye knows
00:58:05 He can operate it in his sleep.
00:58:08 I hope so.
00:58:11 Everyone will black out in the fast climb.
00:58:14 The direction will be set.
00:58:17 - All the way to Zyra?
00:58:21 The blackout won't last
00:58:27 This is no time
00:58:31 I'm not. I know howwell
00:58:34 The trouble is I just learned
00:58:38 His chance of coming out
00:58:42 - I've seen older men make it.
00:58:45 1,500 miles in a few minutes?
00:58:50 When did you discover that?
00:58:52 Yesterday. When I made
00:58:55 I haven't told anyone yet -
00:58:57 Well, don't!
00:59:02 Like Doomsday, that can't be avoided.
00:59:05 We can't let Frye handle this flight.
00:59:16 Look, doc...
00:59:20 Dr Hendron and Frye must be told.
00:59:24 That isn't what I wanted to say.
00:59:28 No...you're right.
00:59:31 There's no other choice.
00:59:33 If anything happens to Frye
00:59:37 I don't suppose it makes any difference,
00:59:41 or dying on earth.
00:59:50 After the blackout,
00:59:53 Eddie Cummings could take over,
00:59:57 If Frye is able to tell him
01:00:04 Dave, you're hedging!
01:00:08 Maybe not as good as Frye,
01:00:11 Do you doubt being able to fly this ship?
01:00:14 I can fly her.
01:00:16 There isn't anyone else.
01:00:19 If Frye doesn't make it,
01:00:26 For months, I've tried to find
01:00:30 I never could. Maybe things
01:00:35 Diagnose it any way you want.
01:00:37 All I know is, I'd feel a lot easier,
01:00:48 Be right back!
01:01:22 This is the last of the chloroform.
01:01:25 Put it somewhere handy
01:01:27 You going to give the animals
01:01:30 If we don't,
01:01:33 We wouldn't want to see them
01:01:36 I'll never forget what you did
01:01:40 I told you the doctor would fix everything.
01:01:49 Come here, Whatsis.
01:01:51 - Come on.
01:01:54 - He's mine.
01:01:57 - Downtown.
01:01:59 He was walking around.
01:02:02 I hate to remind you, but you said
01:02:06 That's right, I did, didn't I?
01:02:08 Let's weigh him.
01:02:13 Incidentally, he's a she.
01:02:15 Nine lbs, two ounces.
01:02:23 Sure, Whatsis is gonna pinch it
01:02:30 Urgent! We are still
01:02:33 Those making the attempt to reach Zyra,
01:02:37 - I knew it would be like this!
01:02:45 My number - it's on! I'm on the list!
01:02:49 Julie! I'm on the list!
01:02:59 Julie! My number!
01:03:20 Remember, if we delay the take off
01:03:23 Zyra's position will form
01:03:27 I hope we can retain that eXtra fuel
01:03:30 while we look for landing room.
01:03:32 Zyra will be about here
01:03:34 If you hold the ship to this curve,
01:03:39 The fuel will last longer with less cargo!
01:03:46 You and that chair weigh 186 lbs.
01:03:48 That's a lot of fuel.
01:03:52 No more than you want to donate your life!
01:03:55 I paid for this ship. You would have been
01:04:00 Before you paid, you tried to make this
01:04:04 A private rocket ship
01:04:08 This project was started by real
01:04:11 They gave their money
01:04:14 You're not here under any special licence.
01:04:17 You're always shouting for facts.
01:04:21 our chance of reaching the new world
01:04:23 is as thin as you becoming a humanitarian!
01:04:26 Ifwe make it, will we be able to land?
01:04:28 Will the air be fit to breathe?
01:04:32 Men and women here
01:04:35 Not your kind of hypocritical praying,
01:04:37 but the kind that comes
01:04:41 - Sorry. I'll come back later.
01:04:52 I just wanted to leave this
01:05:03 He has a girl, Julie Cummings.
01:05:10 There's that extra fuel.
01:05:14 You heard him volunteer to stay behind.
01:05:19 You're not taking it from him!
01:05:24 Get out. Ferris!
01:05:26 Shut up!
01:05:28 This is one ofthe good ones, isn't it?
01:05:31 I'm sorry.
01:05:34 - I'm going too.
01:05:36 I'd almost rather kill you than go along.
01:05:39 For seven years, ever since I started
01:05:42 I've hated your insides.
01:05:46 I'd like to reason things out.
01:05:49 No! You three are running things.
01:05:54 This is my number.
01:05:57 And if I don't go...
01:06:05 - He was going to kill us.
01:06:10 I said this would happen.
01:06:13 There'll be others. All of them.
01:06:17 - He may be right.
01:06:20 one boy was stabbed after the list was
01:06:25 It's dog eat dog.
01:06:27 We can't risk it.
01:06:30 Move the women on board
01:06:33 The men can wait outside until take off!
01:06:35 - The guns are in my room.
01:06:39 We'll have to move people and animals
01:06:43 - There's a girl...
01:06:45 Tell her there's been a mix-up.
01:06:48 We'll gamble on less flying time
01:06:55 - Let me tell you...
01:06:59 Don't say anything.
01:08:01 The last dawn!
01:08:10 I think we can start boarding.
01:08:12 All right, everyone, inside the ship!
01:08:19 I'll bring Mr Stanton.
01:08:28 Why should our lives be decided by
01:08:32 - It should have been by voting!
01:08:36 Gangway, boys.
01:08:37 - Here are the guns Stanton left.
01:08:40 - Let's go. Grab a gun.
01:08:43 - We agreed to the drawing.
01:08:46 Take the ship. Then what?
01:08:49 The rest of us will get rid of that 40,
01:08:53 until we kill each other or get caught
01:08:56 Stick around until the collision
01:09:29 Get me on board.
01:09:37 You were right. You're a better judge
01:09:40 Get me aboard. No, Hendron.
01:09:47 Hendron, what are you doing?
01:09:49 No. Wait. Help!
01:09:57 Dr Hendron.
01:10:01 Hold the gangplank.
01:10:07 We're the extra fuel they might need.
01:10:09 The new world isn't for us.
01:10:17 Dave! The ship is moving. stand by.
01:11:37 We're out of the pressure zone.
01:11:42 The engines are off.
01:11:53 We're on course.
01:12:03 You invented those cardiographs
01:12:07 Yours and Joyce's.
01:12:12 - How does it look?
01:12:16 We'll need every bit,
01:12:20 at ten miles a second.
01:12:51 - We're getting close.
01:12:58 Turn the ship.
01:13:18 Start all engines.
01:13:37 We're slowing.
01:13:38 - Can I cut one engine?
01:13:42 - We're using fuel too fast.
01:14:04 The ship has turned for landing.
01:14:13 35,000...
01:14:16 30,000...
01:14:21 25...
01:14:24 Cut wing engines one and siX.
01:14:29 22,000...
01:14:33 20...
01:14:35 I'm going to level off.
01:14:37 Brace yourselves.
01:15:04 Land anywhere! We've got to.
01:15:06 - Not yet.
01:15:12 The fuel's gone.
01:15:19 There's an opening!
01:15:21 - There go the engines!
01:15:31 - It looks frozen!
01:15:34 We're going to find out.
01:16:15 - We made it!
01:16:17 - We're on Zyra.
01:16:48 Dave, wait until we've tested
01:16:52 We'll get a sample through the airlock.
01:16:54 Never mind. Good air or bad,
01:17:11 Best air I ever tasted.
01:17:13 Break out the gangplank.
01:17:44 Mike! Where is he?
01:17:49 Hey, Mike!
01:17:54 - Our first citizens.
01:17:57 - They sure are.
01:17:59 Well, let's leave Whatsis
01:18:03 Now, let's go look at the first sunrise.
