3
00:02:56,343 --> 00:02:57,904
News conference
a couple of days ago...

4
00:02:57,928 --> 00:02:59,589
A couple days ago... a discovery

5
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:01,295
of possible earth-like planets,

6
00:03:01,390 --> 00:03:03,426
so we'll keep our eye
on that one.

7
00:03:05,644 --> 00:03:07,259
Heh, well, what's next?

8
00:03:07,354 --> 00:03:09,140
All aboard the qe2.

9
00:03:09,272 --> 00:03:11,137
Not really, you don't
want to board this thing.

10
00:03:11,274 --> 00:03:15,813
It's an asteroid the size
of multiple cruise ships.

11
00:03:15,904 --> 00:03:21,945
1998-qe2 is on the way for
a close encounter with earth.

12
00:03:22,035 --> 00:03:24,697
Well, near earth, meaning
it'll be no closer than

13
00:03:24,788 --> 00:03:28,576
3.6 million miles.

14
00:03:28,667 --> 00:03:31,374
But still, as far as
a big asteroid"s concerned,

15
00:03:31,461 --> 00:03:32,496
that's pretty close.

16
00:03:33,547 --> 00:03:36,289
I'hey say it's not
going to hit us,

17
00:03:36,383 --> 00:03:39,045
which is good,
and I hope they're right.

18
00:03:39,136 --> 00:03:40,967
But I always have to think,

19
00:03:41,054 --> 00:03:44,387
are there any companions
that are traveling with it?

20
00:03:44,474 --> 00:03:45,868
You know, I'm not
a doom-and-gloom guy,

21
00:03:45,892 --> 00:03:47,632
but I'm just logical,

22
00:03:47,728 --> 00:03:49,309
logic tells me that

23
00:03:49,396 --> 00:03:50,623
when these things are traveling,

24
00:03:50,647 --> 00:03:51,762
there's probably things

25
00:03:51,857 --> 00:03:52,972
traveling along with them.

26
00:03:53,066 --> 00:03:54,397
You never know, so,

27
00:03:54,484 --> 00:03:56,440
asteroid 1998-qe2

28
00:03:56,528 --> 00:03:58,189
is going to be coming by.

29
00:03:59,364 --> 00:04:01,480
Okay, this has been spacegab,

30
00:04:01,575 --> 00:04:04,817
as always you can hear this
podcast and many others,

31
00:04:04,911 --> 00:04:09,154
www.spacegab.com,
thanks for listening.

32
00:04:09,249 --> 00:04:10,249
Bye-bye.

33
00:04:12,002 --> 00:04:14,835
He was on last week talking
about farmers on Mars.

34
00:04:19,593 --> 00:04:20,593
I tell you, Roy,

35
00:04:21,261 --> 00:04:23,061
it's really great to
have you coming back out.

36
00:04:24,264 --> 00:04:27,131
What's it been,
two months, three months?

37
00:04:27,225 --> 00:04:28,225
Four.

38
00:04:29,436 --> 00:04:30,471
Well...

39
00:04:31,688 --> 00:04:32,688
Well, it's great.

40
00:04:33,815 --> 00:04:34,930
It's not been the same.

41
00:04:45,452 --> 00:04:48,444
So, anyway, um...

42
00:04:50,248 --> 00:04:52,660
Finally got a camera
hooked up to the telescope.

43
00:04:54,669 --> 00:04:56,773
You wouldn't believe the detail I'm
getting with these clear skies.

44
00:04:56,797 --> 00:04:59,789
I'm telling you, Roy,
once it's fully kitted out,

45
00:04:59,883 --> 00:05:01,748
I will be giving NASA
a run for their money.

46
00:05:03,887 --> 00:05:07,379
Once again, Harry, your humility
is an example to us all.

47
00:05:07,474 --> 00:05:11,058
Honestly, Roy, she's a beauty.

48
00:05:13,104 --> 00:05:14,310
You've named it, haven't you?

49
00:05:15,065 --> 00:05:18,148
Yeah, well, she's special.

50
00:05:18,235 --> 00:05:19,235
Of course.

51
00:05:22,989 --> 00:05:24,570
So, what you going
to do this evening?

52
00:05:26,910 --> 00:05:28,070
I don't know.

53
00:05:43,593 --> 00:05:45,129
Harry?

54
00:05:45,220 --> 00:05:46,710
Sorry.

55
00:05:47,556 --> 00:05:49,262
I mean, I can
just fold it up, actually.

56
00:05:51,059 --> 00:05:52,059
Yeah.

57
00:06:06,658 --> 00:06:07,658
Astraeus?

58
00:06:13,081 --> 00:06:14,081
Mike?

59
00:06:14,666 --> 00:06:15,666
Yeah.

60
00:06:17,669 --> 00:06:18,669
He works with you?

61
00:06:21,381 --> 00:06:22,541
Yeah.

62
00:06:23,758 --> 00:06:25,518
He's been coming out
the last couple of weeks

63
00:06:25,594 --> 00:06:27,380
trialing some new tech
he's developing.

64
00:06:30,223 --> 00:06:32,339
Could be some pretty
game-changing stuff apparently.

65
00:06:33,435 --> 00:06:35,050
According to who? Well...

66
00:06:36,313 --> 00:06:37,803
According to Mike.

67
00:06:41,109 --> 00:06:43,100
Seriously, he's not out
here having fun like us,

68
00:06:43,194 --> 00:06:44,650
he's actually got
a lot riding on it.

69
00:06:45,488 --> 00:06:47,570
But to be honest,
it's all a bit above my head.

70
00:06:48,783 --> 00:06:50,364
Another classic astronomy pun.

71
00:06:50,493 --> 00:06:51,949
Like space,

72
00:06:52,037 --> 00:06:55,450
which is also above my head.

73
00:06:56,791 --> 00:06:58,122
I get it.

74
00:06:58,209 --> 00:06:59,415
I thought it was funny.

75
00:07:05,216 --> 00:07:06,831
Since you haven't
been here for a while,

76
00:07:06,927 --> 00:07:08,727
we had to move some
of your stuff in the back.

77
00:07:08,803 --> 00:07:10,134
Mike needed the room.

78
00:07:13,016 --> 00:07:14,016
Yeah, I noticed.

79
00:07:19,230 --> 00:07:20,345
You guys good friends?

80
00:07:22,067 --> 00:07:23,352
Why?

81
00:07:23,443 --> 00:07:24,443
Just wondering.

82
00:07:27,656 --> 00:07:29,237
Is that okay with you?

83
00:07:29,324 --> 00:07:30,439
Why wouldn't it be?

84
00:07:34,621 --> 00:07:35,906
I can think of a few reasons.

85
00:08:21,835 --> 00:08:22,915
You got yours?

86
00:08:24,462 --> 00:08:25,622
You going to wear it?

87
00:08:28,675 --> 00:08:29,675
Nah.

88
00:09:44,334 --> 00:09:45,665
Looks heavy.

89
00:09:45,752 --> 00:09:46,752
Yeah, it is.

90
00:09:47,587 --> 00:09:49,452
Actually, could you just
give me a hand here?

91
00:09:52,258 --> 00:09:53,258
I'm busy.

92
00:09:54,302 --> 00:09:55,302
Doing what?

93
00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:59,512
Listen, while you were
snoring your head back there,

94
00:09:59,599 --> 00:10:01,385
I was watching the road.

95
00:10:01,476 --> 00:10:03,596
You mean you actually meant
to hit all those potholes?

96
00:10:03,645 --> 00:10:05,055
What was that? Huh?

97
00:10:06,689 --> 00:10:08,350
Make sure you don't
drop that thing, okay?

98
00:10:08,441 --> 00:10:09,441
Yep.

99
00:10:15,073 --> 00:10:17,985
- You comfortable there, Roy?
- Oh, he's busy.

100
00:10:18,076 --> 00:10:21,113
Just helping Mike get all your
junk out of my new office.

101
00:10:22,372 --> 00:10:24,829
I'm surprised you guys don't have
this down to a fine art yet.

102
00:10:24,916 --> 00:10:27,157
Just shut up and drink
your damn tea, okay?

103
00:10:28,628 --> 00:10:30,789
Well, here she is.

104
00:10:31,673 --> 00:10:32,708
Roy, this is Annabelle.

105
00:10:32,799 --> 00:10:34,585
Annabelle, Roy.

106
00:10:34,717 --> 00:10:36,958
Oh, my god. Does your
wife know about this?

107
00:10:37,053 --> 00:10:38,589
Does she know about what?

108
00:10:38,680 --> 00:10:40,796
That you've named
this thing after her.

109
00:10:40,890 --> 00:10:42,676
No, no. Not yet, no,

110
00:10:42,767 --> 00:10:44,758
but I think it's kind
of romantic, you know?

111
00:10:47,814 --> 00:10:50,806
After all, this thing's
beautiful, slender,

112
00:10:51,526 --> 00:10:52,891
makes life worth living.

113
00:10:53,862 --> 00:10:56,569
It's also stiff, and emotionless

114
00:10:56,656 --> 00:10:57,816
and weighs a ton,

115
00:10:58,992 --> 00:11:01,233
but I'm sure she'll
appreciate the sentiment.

116
00:11:01,327 --> 00:11:02,327
Yeah.

117
00:11:03,204 --> 00:11:05,115
Just gimme a hand
with it, will you?

118
00:11:05,206 --> 00:11:06,446
I've already asked him.

119
00:11:54,172 --> 00:11:55,457
Fire in the hole.

120
00:12:07,310 --> 00:12:08,675
Take it easy on the guy, okay?

121
00:12:09,729 --> 00:12:11,344
I haven't said anything, have I?

122
00:12:11,439 --> 00:12:12,625
I never say you said anything.

123
00:12:12,649 --> 00:12:14,264
I'm saying give him a chance.

124
00:12:14,359 --> 00:12:15,519
He's a decent bloke.

125
00:12:16,444 --> 00:12:18,776
- Yeah, don't worry about it.
- No, I mean it, Roy.

126
00:12:20,156 --> 00:12:22,147
I don't want any of
your funny business.

127
00:12:22,242 --> 00:12:23,778
Harry, I saiq,
don't worry about it.

128
00:12:27,497 --> 00:12:29,658
I was thinking tonight might
be my last night anyway.

129
00:13:04,742 --> 00:13:05,948
- All set?
- Yeah, yeah.

130
00:13:10,456 --> 00:13:11,642
Could you pass me
that cable, Harry?

131
00:13:11,666 --> 00:13:13,076
This one here? =yeah.

132
00:13:13,167 --> 00:13:15,283
- You got it?
- Yeah, thanks.

133
00:13:16,671 --> 00:13:17,671
Excuse me.

134
00:13:24,512 --> 00:13:26,532
Harry, if you route anymore
goddamn cables through there,

135
00:13:26,556 --> 00:13:28,450
- there's going to be no room for me.
- Calm down,

136
00:13:28,474 --> 00:13:29,680
this is the only one I need.

137
00:13:35,148 --> 00:13:37,355
Well, then what are
the rest of these for?

138
00:13:37,442 --> 00:13:38,898
Can I rig this through here?

139
00:13:38,985 --> 00:13:40,976
Yeah, I'm sure Roy won't mind.

140
00:13:42,447 --> 00:13:44,563
Bring on the wireless
revolution, I say.

141
00:13:48,161 --> 00:13:50,903
Actually, Roy, could you just
pass me that other blue cable?

142
00:13:53,082 --> 00:13:54,082
Roy?

143
00:13:55,251 --> 00:13:56,866
It's just on the floor, yeah.

144
00:13:58,921 --> 00:14:01,287
Too many wires for my liking,
but what can you do, eh?

145
00:14:03,176 --> 00:14:04,176
Here.

146
00:14:06,137 --> 00:14:07,468
Cheers.

147
00:14:07,555 --> 00:14:09,045
Come on, last one, in you go.

148
00:14:11,017 --> 00:14:12,703
I tell you, whoever figures
out how to run this stuff

149
00:14:12,727 --> 00:14:14,763
without cables will be
a bloody millionaire.

150
00:14:19,650 --> 00:14:21,690
You know, it's actually
quite cramped in there, Roy.

151
00:14:22,904 --> 00:14:25,544
I don't know how you're going to
fit in there with all them cables.

152
00:14:30,953 --> 00:14:33,265
Okay, think we're pretty
much rigged. Should be good to go.

153
00:14:33,289 --> 00:14:34,745
Great.

154
00:14:34,832 --> 00:14:36,392
What are your
plans tonight then?

155
00:14:36,459 --> 00:14:38,103
More testing
on the scope's camera,

156
00:14:38,127 --> 00:14:40,083
thankfully the skies
are clear tonight.

157
00:14:40,171 --> 00:14:43,083
Chilly though,
it's always a trade-off really.

158
00:14:56,437 --> 00:14:58,553
Yeah, actually,
I just need one more cable.

159
00:14:58,648 --> 00:15:00,730
Which cable is it you want?

160
00:15:00,817 --> 00:15:04,401
That's the blue one
there, yeah, that's the one.

161
00:15:05,279 --> 00:15:06,879
What the hell is going on?

162
00:15:06,948 --> 00:15:09,155
Yeah, okay, great.

163
00:15:18,501 --> 00:15:20,867
- Roy looks happy in there.
- Yeah.

164
00:15:21,587 --> 00:15:23,828
This is going
to be a long night.

165
00:15:51,367 --> 00:15:53,107
Bloody cold, actually.

166
00:15:53,202 --> 00:15:54,487
I guess the summer's over then?

167
00:15:54,579 --> 00:15:56,319
Yeah, all two weeks of it.

168
00:15:56,414 --> 00:15:58,826
Yeah, nothing
like a British summer.

169
00:16:10,344 --> 00:16:11,709
What is...

170
00:16:14,390 --> 00:16:15,755
It's for the scope.

171
00:16:15,850 --> 00:16:17,431
Sometimes branches
get in the way.

172
00:16:25,526 --> 00:16:27,232
- Harry?
- Yep.

173
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:29,652
- What the hell is this?
- Uh, well, that is a claw.

174
00:16:30,781 --> 00:16:32,741
I can see it's a claw.
What's it doing in the car?

175
00:16:32,783 --> 00:16:34,944
Well, it's for, you know,
clawing things.

176
00:16:35,077 --> 00:16:37,238
Doesn't matter,
just give it here, thank you.

177
00:16:37,330 --> 00:16:39,742
It's for clawing things,
of course, how stupid of me.

178
00:16:40,416 --> 00:16:41,701
No wonder there's no room.

179
00:16:44,462 --> 00:16:47,169
Right then, boys.
Let's get to work.

180
00:16:51,761 --> 00:16:52,761
Mint?

181
00:16:54,222 --> 00:16:55,222
Not for me.

182
00:16:57,058 --> 00:16:58,058
Go on.

183
00:17:00,061 --> 00:17:01,096
No.

184
00:17:01,187 --> 00:17:02,187
Thank you.

185
00:17:03,981 --> 00:17:05,391
Harry, mint?

186
00:17:06,776 --> 00:17:09,267
Yeah, go on then. Hank you.

187
00:20:08,833 --> 00:20:10,118
1420.

188
00:21:15,983 --> 00:21:17,439
Can I have a cuppa, Roy?

189
00:21:18,235 --> 00:21:19,515
Oh, sorry. That was my last one.

190
00:21:20,488 --> 00:21:21,568
If I'd have known.

191
00:21:22,698 --> 00:21:23,778
Oh, well.

192
00:21:23,866 --> 00:21:25,197
No worries.

193
00:21:52,228 --> 00:21:54,264
Have I said something wrong?

194
00:21:54,396 --> 00:21:55,396
Why?

195
00:21:56,774 --> 00:21:58,730
Just Roy seems
a bit off with me.

196
00:21:58,818 --> 00:22:00,578
No, he's off
with everyone lately.

197
00:22:00,653 --> 00:22:02,268
He's just complicated like that.

198
00:22:04,156 --> 00:22:06,488
I'll move my stuff in the boot,
give him his old spot back.

199
00:22:06,575 --> 00:22:08,611
Mike, trust me.
It's nothing you've done.

200
00:22:08,702 --> 00:22:09,987
He'll come around.

201
00:22:15,876 --> 00:22:17,316
So, how's all this
coming along then?

202
00:22:18,379 --> 00:22:19,414
Uh...

203
00:22:20,172 --> 00:22:22,663
Well, slow.

204
00:22:22,758 --> 00:22:24,919
Slow. Yeah,
that sounds about right.

205
00:22:25,010 --> 00:22:26,010
Yeah, quite.

206
00:22:26,971 --> 00:22:28,757
They said if I can't
get a working prototype

207
00:22:28,848 --> 00:22:30,575
by the end of the month,
they're going to cut my funding,

208
00:22:30,599 --> 00:22:31,599
which is...

209
00:22:32,601 --> 00:22:34,683
Not good, really.

210
00:22:36,856 --> 00:22:38,208
The tweaks we made last
week are looking good,

211
00:22:38,232 --> 00:22:39,847
so I'm hopeful for tonight.

212
00:22:41,443 --> 00:22:43,421
Well, I was telling Roy about it
on the way over, actually.

213
00:22:43,445 --> 00:22:45,686
He seemed pretty interested.

214
00:22:45,781 --> 00:22:48,193
Maybe you should run it by him,
see what he makes of it.

215
00:22:49,201 --> 00:22:50,816
Yeah.

216
00:22:50,911 --> 00:22:52,822
Yeah, I will do.
=he'd like that.

217
00:22:52,913 --> 00:22:55,370
He's a bit of a socially
awkward person really.

218
00:22:56,250 --> 00:22:57,706
Yeah.

219
00:22:57,793 --> 00:22:59,073
I know what you mean.

220
00:23:03,173 --> 00:23:04,379
So...

221
00:23:05,759 --> 00:23:07,374
How'd you get
into all this, anyway?

222
00:23:09,054 --> 00:23:10,214
Well,

223
00:23:10,306 --> 00:23:11,546
my dad's to blame for that one.

224
00:23:12,224 --> 00:23:13,805
Which is always the way, right?

225
00:23:15,269 --> 00:23:16,975
Took me to see
the perseid meteor shower

226
00:23:17,062 --> 00:23:18,268
when I was about seven.

227
00:23:20,024 --> 00:23:21,264
And that was that.

228
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:23,724
I never looked back.

229
00:23:25,362 --> 00:23:27,762
I remember him telling me that
everything down here on earth,

230
00:23:27,823 --> 00:23:30,235
everything we are,
everything we're made of,

231
00:23:31,243 --> 00:23:32,243
comes from up there.

232
00:23:35,497 --> 00:23:38,534
20 plus years later,
I'm a doctor of astrophysics,

233
00:23:38,626 --> 00:23:41,083
and I'm getting paid
to study distant stars.

234
00:23:41,170 --> 00:23:42,751
It's all a bit crazy, really.

235
00:23:43,714 --> 00:23:45,079
And here we are.

236
00:23:45,174 --> 00:23:46,174
And here we are.

237
00:23:48,385 --> 00:23:50,046
Want to listen
to some more spacegab?

238
00:23:51,263 --> 00:23:52,298
Yeah.

239
00:23:55,100 --> 00:23:57,182
As I've been
reporting and gabbing about

240
00:23:57,269 --> 00:23:59,681
on spacegab two podcasts ago,

241
00:23:59,772 --> 00:24:03,981
they're looking for martian
farmers.

242
00:24:04,068 --> 00:24:06,730
Not really, not looking
for martian farmers up there.

243
00:24:06,820 --> 00:24:09,232
It's a big thing
growing food up there

244
00:24:09,323 --> 00:24:13,407
because you could only eat
so many tubes of steak

245
00:24:13,494 --> 00:24:15,985
or whatever else they're going
to bring up there with them...

246
00:24:27,091 --> 00:24:28,331
Roy?

247
00:24:28,425 --> 00:24:29,915
Hi, Roy.

248
00:24:30,010 --> 00:24:31,279
I don't think we've been
properly introduced.

249
00:24:31,303 --> 00:24:32,383
I'm Mike.

250
00:24:33,222 --> 00:24:35,075
Harry's told me a lot about
you over the last few weeks,

251
00:24:35,099 --> 00:24:36,805
and it's great
to finally meet you.

252
00:24:37,768 --> 00:24:39,429
It sounds like
you two go way back.

253
00:24:41,230 --> 00:24:42,230
Yeah.

254
00:24:44,233 --> 00:24:46,269
Anyway, he was telling
me you were interested

255
00:24:46,360 --> 00:24:47,691
in the project I'm working on.

256
00:24:49,905 --> 00:24:51,111
Right.

257
00:24:51,991 --> 00:24:53,572
Still trying to
debug the system,

258
00:24:53,659 --> 00:24:57,151
making a few tweaks,
but it should work now.

259
00:25:00,666 --> 00:25:02,622
So, I listen to space.

260
00:25:03,794 --> 00:25:04,794
That's what I do.

261
00:25:05,671 --> 00:25:07,912
Nothing new, but still
pretty incredible, eh?

262
00:25:08,882 --> 00:25:10,838
Do you know much
about radio astronomy?

263
00:25:12,136 --> 00:25:13,296
Not a lot.

264
00:25:14,096 --> 00:25:17,213
That's cool. Basically, I study
distant objects in space

265
00:25:17,307 --> 00:25:19,013
through their radio frequencies,

266
00:25:19,101 --> 00:25:20,537
and there's
a lot of things up there:

267
00:25:20,561 --> 00:25:23,769
Stars, pulsars, quasars,

268
00:25:23,856 --> 00:25:25,437
and they all emit radio waves,

269
00:25:25,524 --> 00:25:27,480
and these waves travel
through space like light,

270
00:25:27,609 --> 00:25:32,603
and we can listen in using
radio equipment, like this.

271
00:25:37,703 --> 00:25:39,864
But if we use radio telescopes,

272
00:25:39,955 --> 00:25:41,786
we can take it a step further,

273
00:25:41,874 --> 00:25:46,664
capturing all this incoming
data and convert it into images.

274
00:25:46,754 --> 00:25:48,870
Learn more about the universe
that we live in.

275
00:25:50,174 --> 00:25:52,005
Obviously,
we can't see radio waves,

276
00:25:52,092 --> 00:25:55,300
but if we could see radio waves,
then this is what we'd see,

277
00:25:56,472 --> 00:26:00,010
that's saturn, this is the moon,

278
00:26:00,100 --> 00:26:04,218
and these are
a couple of galaxies.

279
00:26:04,313 --> 00:26:07,805
Check this out, if we collect
all of this incoming data,

280
00:26:07,900 --> 00:26:10,141
then you can build
a picture of what space...

281
00:26:11,612 --> 00:26:12,612
Sounds like.

282
00:26:18,744 --> 00:26:20,075
Beautiful, isn't it?

283
00:26:24,291 --> 00:26:26,247
I'm hoping to make
my own with this program.

284
00:26:27,461 --> 00:26:29,747
Anyway, the super cool
thing about radio astronomy

285
00:26:29,838 --> 00:26:31,829
is that you can see the universe

286
00:26:31,924 --> 00:26:33,505
in a completely different way.

287
00:26:35,177 --> 00:26:37,509
You know, get her to give up
more of her secrets.

288
00:26:38,222 --> 00:26:40,258
Now, but the problem
with all this incoming data

289
00:26:40,349 --> 00:26:42,681
is that it usually takes weeks,
months to process,

290
00:26:42,768 --> 00:26:47,933
but I think I've found a way to see
what we're getting as we're getting it,

291
00:26:48,023 --> 00:26:50,639
effectively a real-time
visual render program,

292
00:26:50,734 --> 00:26:52,770
which will seriously speed up
the whole process.

293
00:26:54,029 --> 00:26:55,029
In theory.

294
00:26:56,031 --> 00:26:57,271
In theory, yeah.

295
00:26:58,492 --> 00:27:00,261
Unfortunately, that's
what most of my investors

296
00:27:00,285 --> 00:27:01,570
are beginning to think it is,

297
00:27:01,662 --> 00:27:02,777
but I it will work.

298
00:27:04,623 --> 00:27:06,409
I just need more time.

299
00:27:06,500 --> 00:27:08,331
Obviously, it's tough for him,

300
00:27:08,418 --> 00:27:10,955
his antenna's nothing
compared to the big ones.

301
00:27:11,046 --> 00:27:12,046
Yeah.

302
00:27:13,674 --> 00:27:15,674
But it'll give me enough
to prove the system works.

303
00:27:18,011 --> 00:27:20,093
Anyway, let me show you.

304
00:27:34,570 --> 00:27:36,106
Wait, that's not right at all.

305
00:27:38,824 --> 00:27:40,844
Well, what's that, what the
hell is that supposed to be?

306
00:27:40,868 --> 00:27:42,574
Is it the moon again?
=lt's not the moon.

307
00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:48,905
It's another glitch.

308
00:27:52,462 --> 00:27:54,202
I'm sorry, Roy.
I thought I was close

309
00:27:54,298 --> 00:27:55,504
but it's still not working.

310
00:28:00,596 --> 00:28:01,836
I wish I could show you.

311
00:28:09,438 --> 00:28:11,099
Stick with it, Mike.

312
00:28:11,190 --> 00:28:13,272
You'll crack it
eventually, I know it.

313
00:30:21,820 --> 00:30:23,435
1420.

314
00:31:21,213 --> 00:31:22,953
- Harry?
- Mm-hmm?

315
00:31:23,924 --> 00:31:24,924
Harry?

316
00:31:25,801 --> 00:31:27,086
Listen to this.

317
00:31:34,559 --> 00:31:36,220
What?

318
00:31:36,311 --> 00:31:37,872
- What? What do you mean, "what"?
- What am I listening to?

319
00:31:37,896 --> 00:31:38,896
Well, the blips.

320
00:31:43,151 --> 00:31:44,436
I don't hear no blips, Mike.

321
00:31:47,114 --> 00:31:48,114
Did you record it?

322
00:31:49,157 --> 00:31:50,192
No, I was asleep.

323
00:31:53,954 --> 00:31:56,115
- It's 1420.
- Oh, no.

324
00:31:56,206 --> 00:31:58,367
Not little green men again,
is it, Mike?

325
00:31:58,458 --> 00:32:01,104
You going to send these lot a
message as well? - Look, don't start.

326
00:32:01,128 --> 00:32:03,835
Have the others replied yet, by the way?
It's just I've only got

327
00:32:03,922 --> 00:32:06,413
22,000 years
to get the house straight.

328
00:32:06,508 --> 00:32:08,444
Did you ask them if they liked
lemon sponge or fruitcake?

329
00:32:08,468 --> 00:32:10,459
It's just I want
to be ready, that's all.

330
00:32:10,554 --> 00:32:12,260
Harry, it's 1420.

331
00:32:12,347 --> 00:32:14,133
I just don't like
unexpected visitors, Mike,

332
00:32:14,224 --> 00:32:15,509
especially the little
green kind.

333
00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:17,181
1420, that's the water hole.

334
00:32:17,269 --> 00:32:18,600
Well, the water hole's dried up.

335
00:32:19,396 --> 00:32:22,183
Maybe it's those farmers on Mars
complaining about lack of rain.

336
00:32:22,274 --> 00:32:25,311
- Oh, for goodness sake.
- This is your long-range weather forecast

337
00:32:25,402 --> 00:32:27,017
for all you
crop-growers out there.

338
00:32:27,112 --> 00:32:29,603
It looks like a cool
minus 55 outside

339
00:32:29,698 --> 00:32:32,360
and this dusty, dry spell
sweeping in from the east

340
00:32:32,451 --> 00:32:36,069
is here to stay for
the next million years.

341
00:32:37,414 --> 00:32:38,950
It wasn't funny
last week, Harry.

342
00:32:41,710 --> 00:32:45,578
- I bet it was a pulsar.
- Pulsar? -Yep.

343
00:32:45,672 --> 00:32:48,084
=-no. I know what a bloody
pulsar sounds like, Mike.

344
00:32:48,175 --> 00:32:50,653
I might not listen to them for a living,
but they're very much in my field.

345
00:32:50,677 --> 00:32:53,781
I'm sure you do, Harry, but you didn't
hear this, did you? - Did you hear it?

346
00:32:53,805 --> 00:32:56,091
But it wasn't a pulsar,
not with this antenna.

347
00:32:56,183 --> 00:32:58,035
Well, it's not little green men
if that's what you're saying?

348
00:32:58,059 --> 00:32:59,745
- That's not what I'm saying.
- Then what are you saying?

349
00:32:59,769 --> 00:33:01,350
- Well...
- Look, a pulsar...

350
00:33:01,438 --> 00:33:02,598
It wasn't a pulsar.

351
00:33:03,773 --> 00:33:05,638
I know pulsars, all right?

352
00:33:05,734 --> 00:33:09,318
I listen to them aay in,
day out. It wasn't a pulsar.

353
00:33:09,404 --> 00:33:12,091
Look, I wouldn't worry about it, Mike,
everyone's listening to the water hole.

354
00:33:12,115 --> 00:33:14,197
If you've heard it,
they've heard it too.

355
00:33:14,284 --> 00:33:16,650
So, you've all been listening
to pulsars together.

356
00:33:20,165 --> 00:33:22,747
Right, I'm going
to re-calibrate the scope.

357
00:33:22,834 --> 00:33:23,914
I'll be back in a bit.

358
00:33:28,006 --> 00:33:30,338
Remember,
lemon cake or fruitcake?

359
00:33:30,425 --> 00:33:32,570
I know which one you are, I just
want to know which ones they prefer,

360
00:33:32,594 --> 00:33:33,779
but I think I know that already.

361
00:33:33,803 --> 00:33:35,418
Get the hell out of here.

362
00:33:35,514 --> 00:33:36,629
Pulsar.

363
00:33:37,474 --> 00:33:39,430
Look, it wasn't a pulsar.

364
00:34:15,095 --> 00:34:16,095
Roy?

365
00:34:21,726 --> 00:34:22,726
Roy?

366
00:34:26,064 --> 00:34:27,064
Roy?

367
00:35:15,363 --> 00:35:16,363
Oh.

368
00:35:38,970 --> 00:35:40,615
Okay,
you're listening to dj Jimmy

369
00:35:40,639 --> 00:35:43,301
playing all
the classic club bangers!

370
00:35:43,391 --> 00:35:45,382
101.4 throughout the night...

371
00:36:08,708 --> 00:36:11,620
Greetings on behalf of
the people of my world.

372
00:36:12,837 --> 00:36:14,623
This is Mike Webster...

373
00:36:15,757 --> 00:36:17,088
Of planet earth.

374
00:36:18,551 --> 00:36:19,711
We are here.

375
00:36:20,637 --> 00:36:22,673
We are not afraid.

376
00:36:24,224 --> 00:36:26,385
If you are out there
and you are listening,

377
00:36:26,476 --> 00:36:28,057
this is a routine response

378
00:36:28,144 --> 00:36:29,554
to an acquired signal at...

379
00:36:30,647 --> 00:36:34,139
01:33 gmt,

380
00:36:34,275 --> 00:36:37,267
16.10.16.

381
00:36:39,072 --> 00:36:40,072
Unidentified source.

382
00:36:42,742 --> 00:36:44,403
Your signal made it.

383
00:36:45,912 --> 00:36:47,118
We are listening.

384
00:36:49,124 --> 00:36:50,955
Oh, and if this is
the local police station,

385
00:36:51,042 --> 00:36:53,002
I'm sorry if I'm interfering
with your gear again.

386
00:36:55,255 --> 00:36:58,213
But perhaps you should have invested
in some better radio equipment.

387
00:37:24,325 --> 00:37:25,405
So.

388
00:37:28,246 --> 00:37:29,577
Speak english, do they?

389
00:37:30,331 --> 00:37:32,367
You heard that, then?

390
00:37:32,459 --> 00:37:34,199
Probably the only person
who ever will.

391
00:37:35,086 --> 00:37:36,897
Harry's certainly got
some interesting friends.

392
00:37:36,921 --> 00:37:39,253
Oh, please, don't tell him.

393
00:37:40,133 --> 00:37:41,944
Don't worry, I wouldn't dare
repeat some of the weirdness

394
00:37:41,968 --> 00:37:44,459
I've heard in the company
of scientists.

395
00:37:49,684 --> 00:37:52,596
So, should I set a place
at the table for the pulsar?

396
00:37:53,646 --> 00:37:54,646
Like I said.

397
00:37:56,191 --> 00:37:58,544
Picked up some pretty interesting
things last week, didn't you Mike?

398
00:37:58,568 --> 00:38:00,588
Thought you'd made contact
with some intelligent life.

399
00:38:00,612 --> 00:38:02,022
Yeah, not so intelligent life.

400
00:38:02,113 --> 00:38:05,025
No, turned out to be two
traffic cops off the a38.

401
00:38:07,577 --> 00:38:09,238
- Brilliant.
- It really was.

402
00:38:09,370 --> 00:38:11,235
Played havoc
with their radio systems.

403
00:38:11,372 --> 00:38:12,600
They thought it was
some sort of threat

404
00:38:12,624 --> 00:38:14,580
from the local crime ring.

405
00:38:14,667 --> 00:38:17,500
Within minutes, choppers were all over us.
Yeah, all right.

406
00:38:17,587 --> 00:38:20,065
Still didn't catch you though,
did they, Mike? - Okay, very good.

407
00:38:20,089 --> 00:38:21,734
He's a wanted man, you know.

408
00:38:38,233 --> 00:38:39,894
Harry, can I use
your scope on this pass?

409
00:38:40,610 --> 00:38:41,941
Yeah, just give us a sec.

410
00:38:46,491 --> 00:38:47,901
It's coming over in about two.

411
00:38:49,452 --> 00:38:51,659
Uh, okay, do you want
to boot it up at your station

412
00:38:51,746 --> 00:38:53,907
- or do you want to use mine?
- No, I'll stay here.

413
00:38:53,998 --> 00:38:56,410
Right, just type in
your elevation

414
00:38:56,501 --> 00:38:58,771
and bearings like before,
and the scope should auto-track.

415
00:38:58,795 --> 00:38:59,875
Okay.

416
00:40:34,015 --> 00:40:35,551
What just happened?

417
00:40:38,394 --> 00:40:41,227
What's that? I, I don't
know, I've just lost it.

418
00:40:42,523 --> 00:40:44,730
- What?
- Goodman, it's just gone.

419
00:40:45,902 --> 00:40:48,881
I don't understand what you mean,
Roy. - The Goodman, it's disappeared.

420
00:40:48,905 --> 00:40:51,863
=all right, calm down. Well, I'm
looking at it, Harry, and it's gone.

421
00:40:54,661 --> 00:40:55,930
What are you talking about, Roy?

422
00:40:55,954 --> 00:40:57,114
It's right there.

423
00:41:05,171 --> 00:41:07,316
- I'm telling you, Harry.
- Satellites don't just vanish, Roy.

424
00:41:07,340 --> 00:41:10,207
I know what I saw, it just went
blank on me. - All right, guys.

425
00:41:10,301 --> 00:41:11,381
Chill out.

426
00:41:12,512 --> 00:41:13,627
It's just a satellite.

427
00:41:14,722 --> 00:41:16,007
Just a satellite?

428
00:41:16,808 --> 00:41:18,969
Yeah, what's the big deal?

429
00:41:21,104 --> 00:41:22,594
Who the hell
do you think you are?

430
00:41:23,898 --> 00:41:25,229
You have no idea,

431
00:41:25,942 --> 00:41:27,169
no idea what's
going here, do you?

432
00:41:27,193 --> 00:41:28,933
He doesn't know.
Well, he should.

433
00:41:31,572 --> 00:41:33,028
He took my job.

434
00:41:33,116 --> 00:41:34,716
For Christ's sake, Roy.
Give him a break.

435
00:41:35,451 --> 00:41:37,763
You know what? I've just about
had enough of this lecturing.

436
00:41:37,787 --> 00:41:39,778
And what's that
supposed to mean, Roy?

437
00:41:39,872 --> 00:41:41,453
It means what it means, Harry.

438
00:41:51,134 --> 00:41:52,999
Mike, I am so sorry about that.

439
00:42:01,769 --> 00:42:03,725
What did Roy mean,
I took his job?

440
00:42:06,315 --> 00:42:08,306
There's something
you need to know about Roy.

441
00:42:10,528 --> 00:42:12,189
Goodman,
that satellite up there,

442
00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:14,612
that's his, or as good as his.

443
00:42:17,201 --> 00:42:19,032
Do you remember ensat aerospace?

444
00:42:20,121 --> 00:42:21,611
Yeah, sure, yeah.

445
00:42:21,706 --> 00:42:23,571
Well, Roy used to work for them

446
00:42:23,666 --> 00:42:26,078
as their lead aviation engineer,

447
00:42:26,169 --> 00:42:28,706
helped develop navigation
systems for the military,

448
00:42:28,796 --> 00:42:30,957
you know, fighter jets,
that sort of thing.

449
00:42:32,008 --> 00:42:34,920
I really looked up
to him, I still do.

450
00:42:36,804 --> 00:42:38,044
But don't tell him I said that.

451
00:42:44,062 --> 00:42:46,303
A couple of years ago
ensat won a contract

452
00:42:46,397 --> 00:42:48,638
to manufacture
a research satellite,

453
00:42:48,733 --> 00:42:50,894
and Roy was selected
to head up the project.

454
00:42:52,570 --> 00:42:54,048
I was assigned to help them
develop some of their

455
00:42:54,072 --> 00:42:55,983
instrumentation
for the satellite.

456
00:42:58,659 --> 00:43:00,149
That's how I met Roy.

457
00:43:01,704 --> 00:43:03,990
He's a bloody
good engineer, you know?

458
00:43:04,082 --> 00:43:05,802
Took the project well
beyond my expectations

459
00:43:05,833 --> 00:43:07,698
for the science
we could achieve.

460
00:43:14,175 --> 00:43:15,175
Anyway...

461
00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:18,050
About a year ago,

462
00:43:19,055 --> 00:43:21,262
three or so months
before delivery,

463
00:43:21,349 --> 00:43:24,762
astraeus, the company you work for,
came along and acquired ensat.

464
00:43:28,481 --> 00:43:30,142
And they fired him.

465
00:43:30,983 --> 00:43:33,019
They fired him and all his team,

466
00:43:33,111 --> 00:43:34,567
straight out, non-negotiable.

467
00:43:36,614 --> 00:43:39,051
Astraeus wanted the prestige of
delivering the satellite themselves,

468
00:43:39,075 --> 00:43:41,487
so they got their own guys
to come in and finish it off.

469
00:43:43,538 --> 00:43:45,745
I mean, we'd done 99%
of the work, of course, but...

470
00:43:47,250 --> 00:43:48,581
That wasn't the point.

471
00:43:53,214 --> 00:43:54,545
It hit him hard.

472
00:43:56,342 --> 00:43:58,048
Three years he gave to Goodman.

473
00:43:59,137 --> 00:44:01,344
He brought it to life,
he taught it to think,

474
00:44:02,306 --> 00:44:04,422
and he wasn't even
invited to see it launch.

475
00:44:10,773 --> 00:44:12,751
When you dedicate so much
of your life to something,

476
00:44:12,775 --> 00:44:14,060
it becomes a part of you.

477
00:44:15,862 --> 00:44:18,399
And astraeus took it away
from him like it was nothing.

478
00:44:23,995 --> 00:44:25,656
Harry, I had no idea.

479
00:44:26,330 --> 00:44:27,410
Well, why would you?

480
00:44:28,666 --> 00:44:30,827
But Roy just
sees you as astraeus.

481
00:44:32,211 --> 00:44:33,480
And although that doesn't
excuse what just happened,

482
00:44:33,504 --> 00:44:35,415
it does explain why it happened.

483
00:44:40,094 --> 00:44:41,094
I'm sorry.

484
00:44:43,347 --> 00:44:45,429
It's my fault,
I should have explained it.

485
00:44:49,770 --> 00:44:52,136
Being on the research team,
I didn't work for ensat,

486
00:44:52,231 --> 00:44:54,973
so I stayed on and that
obviously complicated things.

487
00:44:56,986 --> 00:44:58,897
I thought he'd be
over it by now, but...

488
00:45:14,045 --> 00:45:15,660
This was our little group.

489
00:45:17,131 --> 00:45:18,371
The astro-nuts.

490
00:45:20,509 --> 00:45:21,999
Just me, Roy and another.

491
00:45:23,471 --> 00:45:25,427
We all worked on the project,
dumb really,

492
00:45:25,514 --> 00:45:26,674
but it was just a bit of fun.

493
00:45:30,061 --> 00:45:31,426
Roy and I used to come out here

494
00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:33,010
and imagine
seeing our satellite.

495
00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:38,360
It was supposed to be this
great moment, you know?

496
00:45:39,654 --> 00:45:41,064
We built that and it's in space.

497
00:45:44,659 --> 00:45:47,150
But now Roy, just looks up and
he sees everything he's lost.

498
00:47:07,575 --> 00:47:08,906
I thought you'd haa
your last cup?

499
00:47:09,702 --> 00:47:10,782
This is my last cup.

500
00:47:15,791 --> 00:47:16,791
Thanks, Roy.

501
00:47:23,966 --> 00:47:26,127
Here, Harry, have some of this.

502
00:47:27,636 --> 00:47:29,467
Ah, thanks, mate.

503
00:47:34,769 --> 00:47:35,769
Lovely stuff.

504
00:47:41,692 --> 00:47:42,692
Roy?

505
00:47:44,820 --> 00:47:46,230
I'm gooaq, it's all yours.

506
00:47:55,039 --> 00:47:56,575
Right.

507
00:47:56,665 --> 00:47:58,656

What is this? Mike?

572
00:55:19,608 --> 00:55:22,020
- Is this your message?
- Message, what message?

573
00:55:22,110 --> 00:55:23,441
Mike, what is this?

574
00:55:24,321 --> 00:55:25,902
It's coming back.

575
00:55:25,989 --> 00:55:27,069

00:55:29,993 --> 00:55:32,075
It's a return. =a return?

578
00:55:32,162 --> 00:55:34,619
No, run a diagnostic,
check your system.

579
00:55:37,042 --> 00:55:38,812
Are you sure? 'Cause earlier
you said it was glitching.

580
00:55:38,836 --> 00:55:41,418
No, no, no, that was
my program, this is different.

581
00:55:41,505 --> 00:55:43,608
- It's got to be bouncing.
- What, off the ionosphere?

582
00:55:43,632 --> 00:55:45,944
=no, it's not bounce. It's got to be.
It's got to be bounce.

583
00:55:45,968 --> 00:55:48,528
Look, we're talking milliseconds
to come back off the ionosphere.

584
00:55:48,595 --> 00:55:50,657
- Well, the moon then.
- No, still just over a second.

585
00:55:50,681 --> 00:55:52,841
Well, it's got to be a ping-back
or something up there.

586
00:55:53,684 --> 00:55:55,094
Mike, when did
you transmit this?

587
00:55:57,229 --> 00:55:58,389
1:33.

588
00:55:59,106 --> 00:56:01,313
- It's now 2:58.
- So, that's 85 minutes.

589
00:56:01,400 --> 00:56:03,061
42 each way. =lf it's bounce...

590
00:56:03,151 --> 00:56:04,796
- And it's not.
- What's 42 light minutes away?

591
00:56:04,820 --> 00:56:06,660
Look, nothing. Nothing's
42 light minutes away.

592
00:56:06,738 --> 00:56:09,104
- Well, there's got to be.
- Well, there's just not.

593
00:56:09,199 --> 00:56:11,815
Okay, light travel time.
Jupiter's 30, saturn's 70,

594
00:56:11,910 --> 00:56:14,830
minimum, there's nothing in between,
trust me. - Are you rolling on this?

595
00:56:15,372 --> 00:56:17,738
- No.
- May I suggest you do.

596
00:56:20,377 --> 00:56:22,355
If you are out
here and you are listening,

597
00:56:22,379 --> 00:56:25,542
this is a routine,
this is a routine response,

598
00:56:25,632 --> 00:56:28,465
routine response
fo an acquired signal at...

599
00:56:28,552 --> 00:56:30,292
Why does it sound like this?

600
00:56:30,387 --> 00:56:31,672
Can you not clean this up?

601
00:56:32,431 --> 00:56:34,046
That's all I'm getting.

602
00:56:34,141 --> 00:56:36,177
It's on a very
thin frequency. Watch.

603
00:56:40,188 --> 00:56:42,804
- It's got to be bang smack on.
- Is that not normal?

604
00:56:42,900 --> 00:56:45,340
None of this is normal. If it
were normal, I'd be expecting to

605
00:56:45,402 --> 00:56:47,313
get at least some bleed
across the frequencies,

606
00:56:47,404 --> 00:56:50,271
but the falloff on this thing's
like nothing I've ever seen.

607
00:56:50,365 --> 00:56:52,105
We are here, we are not afraid.

608
00:56:54,828 --> 00:56:57,035
Mike, what was your cycle rate?

609
00:56:58,707 --> 00:57:01,369
- Cycle rate?
- Yeah, how many cycles did you transmit?

610
00:57:01,501 --> 00:57:04,288
Why? - Because we're hearing
this thing loop over and over.

611
00:57:05,464 --> 00:57:07,775
I dunno, a half a dozen or so.
Look, it was just a bit of fun.

612
00:57:07,799 --> 00:57:09,903
Yeah, but have we not heard it
more times than that already?

613
00:57:09,927 --> 00:57:13,294
- Yeah, definitely.
- Then it can't be a straight bounce.

614
00:57:13,388 --> 00:57:16,451
That's what I've been saying. - No, no, no,
what you're saying is it can't be a bounce

615
00:57:16,475 --> 00:57:18,841
as there's nothing at that
range to bounce back off from.

616
00:57:19,686 --> 00:57:21,642
What I'm saying is,
how can this be a bounce

617
00:57:21,730 --> 00:57:23,186
if it's now looping more times

618
00:57:23,273 --> 00:57:25,059
than the original
cycles you transmitted?

619
00:57:26,109 --> 00:57:27,189
Am I right?

620
00:57:29,988 --> 00:57:31,398
I'm right, right?

621
00:57:34,159 --> 00:57:36,070
Are you sure
you're rolling on this?

622
00:57:37,245 --> 00:57:38,985
- Yeah, hundred percent.
- Holy Christ.

623
00:57:39,957 --> 00:57:42,323
We need confirmation
on this, Mike, rapid.

624
00:57:42,417 --> 00:57:43,452
Call it in.

625
00:57:44,211 --> 00:57:46,331
I'll check to see if there's
any chatter over at SETI.

626
00:57:52,511 --> 00:57:54,593
British space observatory. Dave?

627
00:57:54,680 --> 00:57:57,012
- No, sorry, Dave's unavailable.
- Well, where is he?

628
00:57:57,099 --> 00:57:59,886
- He's off duty, so he's sleeping.
- Can you go wake him up?

629
00:57:59,977 --> 00:58:02,559
His shift finished two hours
ago, so he's unavailable.

630
00:58:02,646 --> 00:58:05,208
No, I understand he's not available, but
could you make him available, please,

631
00:58:05,232 --> 00:58:07,627
- could you just go and wake him up?
- What, wake him up right now?

632
00:58:07,651 --> 00:58:10,313
- Yes, right now!
- Uh, please hold.

633
00:58:10,404 --> 00:58:12,690
Jesus, these people. Could
you look after that? Mm-hmm.

634
00:58:12,781 --> 00:58:14,968
Dave, sorry.
There's some guy on the phone,

635
00:58:14,992 --> 00:58:16,448
he's being quite persistent.

636
00:58:17,160 --> 00:58:19,742
- Who is this?
- Dave, it's Mike Webster.

637
00:58:19,830 --> 00:58:21,445
Oh, my god.
Mike, look at the time.

638
00:58:21,540 --> 00:58:23,267
Dave, you got anything
going on there tonight?

639
00:58:23,291 --> 00:58:25,031
Mike, why are
you calling me up now?

640
00:58:25,127 --> 00:58:27,438
- You're on the desk tonight?
- No, I'm not, my shift is up.

641
00:58:27,462 --> 00:58:30,024
- Look, Dave, you got anything interesting?
- Of course not, Mike.

642
00:58:30,048 --> 00:58:32,710
If something was...
Look, if something was going on,

643
00:58:32,801 --> 00:58:35,196
someone would have woken me up. - Well, what
the bloody hell do you think I'm doing, Dave?

644
00:58:35,220 --> 00:58:38,303
Get up! - I've got to be up at
four o'clock in the bloody morning.

645
00:58:38,390 --> 00:58:40,176
Dave, we've got
a target signal here.

646
00:58:40,267 --> 00:58:42,383
What? Where are you?

647
00:58:42,477 --> 00:58:44,205
What do you mean where am 1?
It doesn't matter where I am.

648
00:58:44,229 --> 00:58:46,686
Can you just get up, we need
an affirm on this, asap.

649
00:58:46,773 --> 00:58:49,435
Okay, okay, give me a minute,
I'll go to the control room.

650
00:58:50,986 --> 00:58:54,649
Any talk on the servers? - No, I guess
everyone's just working the signal.

651
00:58:54,740 --> 00:58:55,900
We must have caught it early.

652
00:58:57,242 --> 00:58:58,903
Dave? Dave, you there?

653
00:58:59,870 --> 00:59:01,485
Yeah, you got
a frequency for me?

654
00:59:01,580 --> 00:59:03,662
Yeah, are you ready to copy?
=go ahead.

655
00:59:03,749 --> 00:59:06,661
1420.163.

656
00:59:06,752 --> 00:59:09,289
Read back? =1420.163.

657
00:59:09,379 --> 00:59:11,335
Yeah, good read-back.
Run the numbers.

658
00:59:11,423 --> 00:59:13,254
The waterhole?
Mike, we're listening

659
00:59:13,341 --> 00:59:15,627
- to that frequency 24/7.
- Dave, run the numbers,

660
00:59:15,719 --> 00:59:17,505
I'm telling you, you'll hear it.

661
00:59:17,637 --> 00:59:19,423
Okay, hang on a minute,
we'll have a listen.

662
00:59:20,265 --> 00:59:21,743
We've got a lot of
surface clutter, Dave.

663
00:59:21,767 --> 00:59:23,223
See if you can
clean it up your end.

664
00:59:23,310 --> 00:59:24,310
Will do.

665
00:59:25,979 --> 00:59:27,765
Mike, what is the waterhole?

666
00:59:29,941 --> 00:59:31,306
The electromagnetic spectrum

667
00:59:31,401 --> 00:59:32,841
is just cluttered
with garble, right?

668
00:59:33,528 --> 00:59:35,298
Trying to spot an intelligent
signal within that

669
00:59:35,322 --> 00:59:36,966
is like trying to have a
conversation at rock concert,

670
00:59:36,990 --> 00:59:39,106
you just can't do it,
but at 1420 megahertz,

671
00:59:39,201 --> 00:59:40,532
there's a natural dead spot.

672
00:59:41,328 --> 00:59:44,991
It's like a quiet tunnel
cutting through all the noise.

673
00:59:45,082 --> 00:59:46,788
- And that's the waterhole?
- Right.

674
00:59:47,751 --> 00:59:48,978
If you want to send
a signal out into space,

675
00:59:49,002 --> 00:59:49,912
the waterhole's your best chance

676
00:59:50,003 --> 00:59:51,003
of getting it heard.

677
00:59:55,926 --> 00:59:56,926
Dave?

678
00:59:59,513 --> 01:00:00,673
How's it looking there, mate?

679
01:00:01,306 --> 01:00:02,306
Uh...

680
01:00:03,058 --> 01:00:05,925
Standby. We're not
hearing anything yet.

681
01:00:06,019 --> 01:00:07,747
Like I said, there's a lot of
clutter, but the transmission's

682
01:00:07,771 --> 01:00:10,012
pretty damn obvious,
you know what I mean?

683
01:00:10,107 --> 01:00:12,393
Yeah, we're still getting
zip here, Mike.

684
01:00:12,484 --> 01:00:14,045
Well, 1 don't understand
how that can be, we've got it

685
01:00:14,069 --> 01:00:15,525
loud and clear here.

686
01:00:15,612 --> 01:00:17,193
Negative,
I'm just hearing static.

687
01:00:17,280 --> 01:00:18,920
- Well, then, scan the bana.
- Look, Mike,

688
01:00:18,990 --> 01:00:20,480
I've checked
and there's nothing.

689
01:00:20,575 --> 01:00:21,815
Your gear's faulty.

690
01:00:22,619 --> 01:00:23,619
No.

691
01:00:25,038 --> 01:00:26,528
What are you hearing?

692
01:00:28,333 --> 01:00:30,198
Mike? Uh...

693
01:00:33,713 --> 01:00:34,953
We've got a voice.

694
01:00:36,383 --> 01:00:38,624
Say again, Mike, sounded
like you said, "a voice".

695
01:00:39,845 --> 01:00:41,085
That's affirm, Dave.

696
01:00:42,597 --> 01:00:44,053
We're getting a voice.

697
01:00:46,601 --> 01:00:48,933
Rignt. Well, we're not hearing

698
01:00:49,020 --> 01:00:50,430
anything of the sort, Mike.

699
01:00:51,606 --> 01:00:54,473
Please, Dave.
I'm serious, listen.

700
01:00:56,361 --> 01:00:58,089
If you are listening, this is

701
01:00:58,113 --> 01:00:59,715
a routine response
fo an acquired signal...

702
01:00:59,739 --> 01:01:01,821
Mike, is this some kind of joke?

703
01:01:05,328 --> 01:01:07,239
You're really not reading
anything on this band?

704
01:01:09,457 --> 01:01:11,948
I'm not quite sure
what's going on here,

705
01:01:12,043 --> 01:01:13,908
to be honest, Mike.
But if there's nothing else

706
01:01:14,004 --> 01:01:15,857
I can help you with,
then I've really got to go.

707
01:01:15,881 --> 01:01:18,042
- Sure.
- Okay, Mike.

708
01:01:18,133 --> 01:01:20,493
- Okay, Dave. Well thanks for...
- All right, mate. See you.

709
01:01:20,969 --> 01:01:22,300
Trying for me.

710
01:01:28,727 --> 01:01:30,308
So, what just happened?

711
01:01:32,564 --> 01:01:34,520
1 don't understand how
they're not reading this.

712
01:01:35,317 --> 01:01:36,794
They've got an array
of 50-meter dishes.

713
01:01:36,818 --> 01:01:38,129
All we've got is
this piddly little thing.

714
01:01:38,153 --> 01:01:39,393
It doesn't make any sense.

715
01:01:40,822 --> 01:01:42,528
There's absolutely
no talk of this online?

716
01:01:42,616 --> 01:01:44,607
Zilch. I mean, are we
the only one's getting this?

717
01:01:45,619 --> 01:01:47,610
I can't understand how
that could be the case.

718
01:01:47,704 --> 01:01:48,989
Don't see how that's possible.

719
01:01:49,789 --> 01:01:50,789
I know.

720
01:01:52,042 --> 01:01:53,811
The whole world's listening
to this frequency.

721
01:01:53,835 --> 01:01:56,116
It's almost a cliche that
somethings coming through on it.

722
01:01:56,880 --> 01:01:58,360
But there is something
coming through?

723
01:01:59,132 --> 01:02:00,252
Yeah, look, I scroll away...

724
01:02:01,885 --> 01:02:03,421
_1t sinks beneath the static.

725
01:02:04,429 --> 01:02:07,136
I roll back to 1420

726
01:02:07,224 --> 01:02:09,886
and there it is, plain as day.

727
01:02:11,353 --> 01:02:13,685
There's no two ways about it,
this is an incoming signal.

728
01:02:15,065 --> 01:02:18,774
Look, forgive my ignorance here, but
before we get ahead of ourselves,

729
01:02:18,860 --> 01:02:21,067
can you just explain to me
how this, your message,

730
01:02:22,030 --> 01:02:24,112
is the same as a signal
from outer space?

731
01:02:24,908 --> 01:02:26,552
It could be a leader signal.
Like a beacon.

732
01:02:26,576 --> 01:02:27,611
Right, like a beacon.

733
01:02:28,286 --> 01:02:30,139
Something we'd recognize
that we could latch onto.

734
01:02:30,163 --> 01:02:32,074
Once we hook on,
there could be more.

735
01:02:32,165 --> 01:02:35,373
Yeah, but isn't all this just
a little too specific to us?

736
01:02:35,460 --> 01:02:37,997
I mean, it's almost too good
to be true, not to mention fast.

737
01:02:38,088 --> 01:02:39,398
You only sent the damn
thing a few hours ago.

738
01:02:39,422 --> 01:02:40,787
Look, Roy.

739
01:02:43,802 --> 01:02:46,122
There's a hell of a lot going
on here that I can't explain.

740
01:02:47,847 --> 01:02:50,304
But I can't argue with this.

741
01:02:51,810 --> 01:02:53,721
We are listening.

742
01:02:54,729 --> 01:02:56,014
You can't argue with this.

743
01:02:59,150 --> 01:03:00,936
If we are the only ones
getting this...

744
01:03:02,445 --> 01:03:05,687
And we sit on it, or worse, just
let it slip through the net.

745
01:03:08,034 --> 01:03:09,994
I'd rather be wrong
and have done the right thing.

746
01:03:10,078 --> 01:03:12,740
And if I'm wrong, I'm wrong.
So what?

747
01:03:15,375 --> 01:03:16,655
But if we're right about this...

748
01:03:19,004 --> 01:03:22,917
And what's happening here is what
I think is happening here...

749
01:03:26,761 --> 01:03:27,921
This changes everything.

750
01:03:31,433 --> 01:03:32,433
Okay.

751
01:03:33,351 --> 01:03:34,841
So what's our next move?

752
01:03:41,234 --> 01:03:44,226
Yeah, we're going to need
all the power we can get.

753
01:03:45,488 --> 01:03:47,695
Okay, let's get to it.

754
01:04:00,795 --> 01:04:02,911
Mike, this is Roy.
Comms check, over.

755
01:04:03,006 --> 01:04:04,587
Do you read me?

756
01:04:04,674 --> 01:04:06,255
Comms check, comms check, over?

757
01:04:09,220 --> 01:04:11,757
Roger, reading you
10-square, Roy. You set?

758
01:04:12,724 --> 01:04:14,305
Yeah, just waiting on Harry.

759
01:04:14,392 --> 01:04:16,428
Understood, he's on
his way out, over.

760
01:04:25,028 --> 01:04:26,028
Hook 'em up.

761
01:04:27,822 --> 01:04:30,188
Mike, we're on station
and ready to copy.

762
01:04:30,283 --> 01:04:31,614
How do you read?

763
01:04:34,287 --> 01:04:35,697
Received, standby one.

764
01:04:36,873 --> 01:04:39,114
I've re-routed all the power
from the main battery,

765
01:04:39,209 --> 01:04:42,246
that should give us enough, but can I
shut down Roy's system to be sure?

766
01:04:42,337 --> 01:04:43,827
Over.

767
01:04:43,922 --> 01:04:46,413
That's affirm.
And don't forget my scope.

768
01:04:46,508 --> 01:04:47,918
Yeah, right-o.

769
01:04:53,014 --> 01:04:54,299
All set this end, Harry.

770
01:04:55,183 --> 01:04:56,844
Copy. Waiting on you.

771
01:05:00,897 --> 01:05:03,809
Okay, guys, separate
the antennas and spread out.

772
01:05:04,526 --> 01:05:06,107
I'll monitor the incoming signal

773
01:05:06,194 --> 01:05:08,276
and direct your
position from here.

774
01:05:08,363 --> 01:05:10,194
With my primary antenna
on the car,

775
01:05:10,281 --> 01:05:12,363
and your two hand-helds
we can establish

776
01:05:12,450 --> 01:05:15,863
three individual
receiving sectors.

777
01:05:15,954 --> 01:05:18,286
Basically, a giant
triangle with each one

778
01:05:18,373 --> 01:05:20,455
of our antennas acting
as one of the points.

779
01:05:21,626 --> 01:05:24,834
This'll give us a stronger
system and a stronger signal.

780
01:05:25,547 --> 01:05:27,788
- Got it?
- Got it.

781
01:05:30,093 --> 01:05:31,333
Okay, let's do this.

782
01:05:33,805 --> 01:05:34,920
You heard the man.

783
01:05:35,598 --> 01:05:36,598
I'll go that way.

784
01:05:37,809 --> 01:05:39,015
Stay in radio contact.

785
01:05:40,353 --> 01:05:42,093
Okay, Mike, we're on the move.

786
01:05:42,188 --> 01:05:44,349
I'm pushing west,
Roy's going to head east.

787
01:06:22,645 --> 01:06:25,261
1:33 gmt.

788
01:06:25,356 --> 01:06:27,392
1:33 gmt

789
01:06:27,484 --> 01:06:28,644
unidentified source.

790
01:06:40,830 --> 01:06:42,195
We getting anything here, Mike?

791
01:06:43,666 --> 01:06:45,226
Yeah, we're definitely
getting movement.

792
01:06:45,251 --> 01:06:46,251
Keep going.

793
01:06:49,088 --> 01:06:50,088
Copy that.

794
01:06:59,140 --> 01:07:00,846
I'ne signal strength
is increasing.

795
01:07:02,143 --> 01:07:03,143
Copy that.

796
01:07:04,854 --> 01:07:06,970
We are not afraid.

797
01:07:08,274 --> 01:07:10,185
You are listening.

798
01:07:10,276 --> 01:07:12,187
I

799
01:07:19,661 --> 01:07:20,696
Roy?

800
01:07:23,498 --> 01:07:24,658
Do you read me, Roy?

801
01:07:28,419 --> 01:07:30,580
This seemed like
a better idea in the car.

802
01:07:53,361 --> 01:07:55,422
If you are
here and you are listening,

803
01:07:55,446 --> 01:07:57,812
this is a routine response
to an acquired signal

804
01:07:57,907 --> 01:08:01,650
at 01:33 gmt.

805
01:08:01,744 --> 01:08:04,451
16.10.16.

806
01:08:04,539 --> 01:08:06,029
It's working.

807
01:08:06,165 --> 01:08:08,247
Unidentified source.

808
01:08:08,334 --> 01:08:10,199
It's working, guys.

809
01:08:10,295 --> 01:08:11,501
Keep spreading.

810
01:08:11,588 --> 01:08:12,703
Keep spreading.

811
01:08:13,464 --> 01:08:15,375
Why don't you come out
here and keep spreading?

812
01:08:16,968 --> 01:08:18,583
Yup, Roger that.

813
01:08:27,437 --> 01:08:30,474
Greetings on
behalf of the people of my world.

814
01:08:30,565 --> 01:08:32,556
This is Mike Webster.

815
01:08:59,427 --> 01:09:01,213
Stop! Jesus Christ.

816
01:09:01,304 --> 01:09:03,761
- Harry, Roy, stop.
- What the hell, Mike?

817
01:09:03,848 --> 01:09:05,679
Just hold there, will you?

818
01:09:05,767 --> 01:09:08,349
Okay, yeah, understood.

819
01:09:20,740 --> 01:09:22,321
Say again on your last, Mike?

820
01:09:31,918 --> 01:09:33,499
Mike, do you read me, over?

821
01:09:44,555 --> 01:09:46,386
Roy, Harry, stop moving.

822
01:09:46,474 --> 01:09:47,714
We're losing the signal.

823
01:09:47,809 --> 01:09:48,809
I'm not moving.

824
01:09:50,311 --> 01:09:51,426
Roy?

825
01:09:51,521 --> 01:09:52,931
Come in, Roy.

826
01:09:53,022 --> 01:09:55,013
Roy, stop moving,
hold your position, okay?

827
01:09:55,108 --> 01:09:56,689
Stop moving.

828
01:09:56,776 --> 01:09:59,017
Say again, Harry?
You're breaking up.

829
01:09:59,112 --> 01:10:00,693
Hold your position, Roy.

830
01:10:01,447 --> 01:10:03,688
Just stay right where you are.

831
01:10:03,783 --> 01:10:05,239
Repeat. Hold your position.

832
01:10:05,326 --> 01:10:06,441
Do you read?

833
01:10:08,079 --> 01:10:09,194
What have you got?

834
01:10:12,542 --> 01:10:14,703
Well, I've got some
serious ghosting here,

835
01:10:15,795 --> 01:10:18,832
something faint beneath the
surface, I knew it was a beacon.

836
01:10:20,508 --> 01:10:22,169
Harry, hold your position.

837
01:10:23,010 --> 01:10:24,738
Roy, you're going to have
to retrace your steps,

838
01:10:24,762 --> 01:10:27,674
work your way
exactly back, slowly.

839
01:10:28,474 --> 01:10:29,930
Roger. Working back now.

840
01:10:52,290 --> 01:10:53,290
Slowly.

841
01:10:56,502 --> 01:10:57,742
That's real good, Roy.

842
01:10:59,839 --> 01:11:00,999
Keep coming.

843
01:11:02,550 --> 01:11:03,550
That's it

844
01:11:09,807 --> 01:11:11,718
I'hat's it, guys.

845
01:11:12,477 --> 01:11:13,477
It's working.

846
01:11:15,480 --> 01:11:16,480
It's working.

847
01:11:21,861 --> 01:11:22,976
Keep coming.

848
01:11:33,331 --> 01:11:34,571
Stop!

849
01:11:37,794 --> 01:11:39,955
Nobody... move.

850
01:11:46,969 --> 01:11:47,969
Mike?

851
01:11:51,933 --> 01:11:52,933
Mike?

852
01:11:56,896 --> 01:11:57,896
Listen to this.

853
01:12:42,483 --> 01:12:44,314
I hope you're
taking this down, Mike.

854
01:12:46,362 --> 01:12:47,602
Youre damn right I am.

855
01:12:51,284 --> 01:12:52,774
Plant the antenna, come on in.

856
01:12:57,540 --> 01:12:58,620
Copy that.

857
01:13:23,566 --> 01:13:24,931
Whoa.

858
01:13:28,654 --> 01:13:30,299
We're getting some
serious spikes here, guys.

859
01:13:30,323 --> 01:13:31,563
Get back here now.

860
01:14:54,865 --> 01:14:55,865
Mike!

861
01:15:03,040 --> 01:15:04,450
Mike? =I'm here.

862
01:15:04,583 --> 01:15:06,119
Bloody hell, you scared me.

863
01:15:06,210 --> 01:15:07,210
There you are.

864
01:15:09,964 --> 01:15:11,625
What happened to the power?

865
01:15:11,716 --> 01:15:13,252
Some sort of surge, I think.

866
01:15:13,342 --> 01:15:14,778
Harry, get that
thing out of my face.

867
01:15:14,802 --> 01:15:16,167
Oh, yeah, sorry.

868
01:15:17,596 --> 01:15:18,711
Check the breakers.

869
01:15:18,806 --> 01:15:19,806
I got it.

870
01:15:23,894 --> 01:15:24,894
That's done the trick.

871
01:15:24,937 --> 01:15:25,937
Try it now.

872
01:15:35,114 --> 01:15:36,114
Where's it gone?

873
01:15:40,911 --> 01:15:41,911
It was right here.

874
01:15:48,419 --> 01:15:50,956
- I had a ghost signal, Harry.
- You recorded though, right?

875
01:15:51,630 --> 01:15:53,291
Yeah.

876
01:15:53,382 --> 01:15:55,043
Thank god. I'll load the system.

877
01:16:09,440 --> 01:16:10,440
Wait?

878
01:16:19,450 --> 01:16:23,910
No, no, no, ho, ho,
access master system 2.

879
01:16:29,585 --> 01:16:30,585
No.

880
01:16:32,046 --> 01:16:33,046
No.

881
01:16:33,964 --> 01:16:35,795
No, no, no, no, no, ho, no.

882
01:16:35,883 --> 01:16:38,340
Access memory module.

883
01:17:09,250 --> 01:17:10,956
My system seems fine.

884
01:17:11,043 --> 01:17:12,203
Yeah, mine too.

885
01:17:14,004 --> 01:17:15,119
The recordings?

886
01:17:15,214 --> 01:17:16,214
They're all gone.

887
01:17:18,300 --> 01:17:19,335
Everything from tonight.

888
01:17:19,426 --> 01:17:20,461
Oh, Christ.

889
01:17:24,431 --> 01:17:25,671
What about your program?

890
01:17:26,642 --> 01:17:29,304
I mean, yeah, that's fine. I can
reboot the system from this drive.

891
01:17:41,991 --> 01:17:43,106
Your system's fine?

892
01:17:43,200 --> 01:17:44,986
Yeah, well, being powered down

893
01:17:45,077 --> 01:17:46,988
must have protected it
from the overload.

894
01:17:48,581 --> 01:17:49,661
Here we go.

895
01:18:04,180 --> 01:18:05,180
I can't believe it.

896
01:18:07,516 --> 01:18:08,516
That's that then.

897
01:18:14,857 --> 01:18:16,918
If we can't reacquire this signal
and get some recordings down,

898
01:18:16,942 --> 01:18:19,149
we'll have no proof of
anything that's happened here.

899
01:18:19,945 --> 01:18:21,230
No one's going to believe us.

900
01:18:23,908 --> 01:18:25,927
It's hard enough to explain when you
can hear the bloody thing yourself.

901
01:18:25,951 --> 01:18:27,487
It'll come back through, Mike.

902
01:18:29,705 --> 01:18:30,990
It'll come back through.

903
01:19:23,092 --> 01:19:24,707
What are you
doing out here, Mike?

904
01:19:27,388 --> 01:19:28,388
Nothing.

905
01:19:35,729 --> 01:19:37,970
I figure there's two
types of scientists, Mike.

906
01:19:40,442 --> 01:19:41,807
Those that look down at earth...

907
01:19:43,237 --> 01:19:45,319
Trying to figure out
what's going on here.

908
01:19:48,409 --> 01:19:50,650
And then there are those
who look up to space...

909
01:19:52,246 --> 01:19:53,952
Searching for
the answers out there.

910
01:19:56,750 --> 01:19:59,366
But they're both really
looking for the same thing.

911
01:20:01,005 --> 01:20:02,005
Who are we?

912
01:20:02,923 --> 01:20:04,129
What are we?

913
01:20:06,343 --> 01:20:07,503
What does all this mean?

914
01:20:16,061 --> 01:20:17,096
I'm an engineer, Mike,

915
01:20:20,190 --> 01:20:22,351
don't hunt for the science,
I just put it to work.

916
01:20:25,487 --> 01:20:27,352
But if wasn't
for people like you...

917
01:20:29,199 --> 01:20:31,190
People who are brave enough
to push the boundaries

918
01:20:31,285 --> 01:20:32,445
of what we know...

919
01:20:33,787 --> 01:20:34,867
We'd all stand still.

920
01:20:42,671 --> 01:20:44,502
I don't know anything
about these signals.

921
01:20:45,716 --> 01:20:47,547
To me, it's all science fiction.

922
01:20:50,095 --> 01:20:52,632
But if we're the only people
receiving this signal,

923
01:20:55,392 --> 01:20:58,008
then we're the only people that
can make sure the world hears it.

924
01:21:07,863 --> 01:21:11,151
Because if this
really is first contact

925
01:21:11,241 --> 01:21:13,857
with an intelligent
extraterrestrial race,

926
01:21:15,704 --> 01:21:17,160
then we're about to do something

927
01:21:17,915 --> 01:21:20,372
that humans have dreamt
about since the beginning.

928
01:21:27,049 --> 01:21:28,049
Mike?

929
01:21:29,718 --> 01:21:31,049
I'll help you if I can.

930
01:21:32,513 --> 01:21:34,253
But it's really all on you.

931
01:21:37,434 --> 01:21:39,390
It's the choice you make
right now that counts.

932
01:21:42,022 --> 01:21:43,762
You make the right moves here

933
01:21:45,234 --> 01:21:46,565
and you have in your hands

934
01:21:47,694 --> 01:21:49,935
the greatest discovery
in the history of mankind.

935
01:21:51,657 --> 01:21:52,897
The answer to the question.

936
01:22:09,425 --> 01:22:10,425
Roy...

937
01:22:11,677 --> 01:22:13,477
- About Goodman.
- Don't worry about that now.

938
01:22:13,512 --> 01:22:15,127
No, I'm...

939
01:22:15,222 --> 01:22:16,632
Sorry what astraeus did to you.

940
01:22:18,767 --> 01:22:19,847
Harry told me.

941
01:22:21,854 --> 01:22:23,264
I wanted to tell you,
I was there...

942
01:22:24,231 --> 01:22:25,471
At the launch.

943
01:22:27,359 --> 01:22:30,692
I didn't know what the project was,
I'd only just joined at the time, but

944
01:22:30,779 --> 01:22:31,939
I was there.

945
01:22:34,116 --> 01:22:35,151
It was incredible.

946
01:22:36,702 --> 01:22:38,902
I've never seen anything
like it. You know, the power...

947
01:22:40,205 --> 01:22:42,321
I felt it,
it physically shook me.

948
01:22:44,376 --> 01:22:46,492
I was literally willing
her to go, and she did.

949
01:22:47,421 --> 01:22:49,207
She punched a hole in the sky.

950
01:22:52,342 --> 01:22:55,129
You should be so proud of
what you achieved, of Goodman.

951
01:22:56,472 --> 01:22:58,491
Just 'cause you weren't there,
Roy, doesn't change anything.

952
01:22:58,515 --> 01:23:00,756
She's yours. No one can
take that away from you.

953
01:23:04,438 --> 01:23:06,724
But what they did to you,
you didn't deserve that.

954
01:23:07,858 --> 01:23:08,858
Neither of you did.

955
01:23:10,110 --> 01:23:11,520
Neither of us?

956
01:23:11,612 --> 01:23:12,612
You and Harry.

957
01:23:13,906 --> 01:23:15,049
I can't imagine what
it must have been like

958
01:23:15,073 --> 01:23:16,483
to lose your jobs like that.

959
01:23:17,242 --> 01:23:19,387
What are you talking about? You
work under Harry at astraeus.

960
01:23:19,411 --> 01:23:21,072
Not anymore.

961
01:23:21,163 --> 01:23:23,003
He got the push months ago.
I thought you knew.

962
01:23:25,083 --> 01:23:27,540
Astraeus fired him. He kicked
up a stink about something.

963
01:23:30,172 --> 01:23:33,414
God, no. I didn't know that.

964
01:23:35,260 --> 01:23:37,091
You're more alike
than you think, Roy.

965
01:23:38,555 --> 01:23:39,555
He's a good friend.

966
01:23:41,266 --> 01:23:42,972
He just wants you
to be his again.

967
01:23:51,735 --> 01:23:52,735
Mint?

968
01:23:57,908 --> 01:23:58,908
Cheers.

969
01:24:05,165 --> 01:24:06,405
Mike?

970
01:24:10,879 --> 01:24:12,210
Thank you, Mike.

971
01:24:37,155 --> 01:24:38,645
Hello?

972
01:24:38,740 --> 01:24:40,071
Yeah, can I speak
to Dave, please?

973
01:24:41,243 --> 01:24:43,279
No, I need to speak
to him, really. It's urgent.

974
01:24:43,370 --> 01:24:46,157
Yeah. Yeah, I called
earlier, and you put me through.

975
01:24:47,291 --> 01:24:49,202
Well, yeah, I understand that,
but if you...

976
01:24:50,127 --> 01:24:52,527
Yeah, but if you'd just let me
explain to him them I could...

977
01:24:53,297 --> 01:24:55,128
Yeah, yeah, I understand that...

978
01:24:56,216 --> 01:24:58,319
No, I realize that, but if you could
just let me explain it to him,

979
01:24:58,343 --> 01:25:00,049
then 1 reckon
he'll be able to speak.

980
01:25:01,013 --> 01:25:04,505
J uncle rat, he wanted a wife j

981
01:25:05,976 --> 01:25:07,182
j carry me home j

982
01:25:11,398 --> 01:25:14,231
j dum dum da da da,
carry me home j»

983
01:25:17,070 --> 01:25:18,310
why didn't you tell me?

984
01:25:21,033 --> 01:25:22,523
Mike let that one slip then?

985
01:25:25,454 --> 01:25:26,910
What the hell happened, Harry?

986
01:25:30,250 --> 01:25:31,660
I didn't want
to make things worse.

987
01:25:43,221 --> 01:25:44,802
Come on, Roy.

988
01:25:44,890 --> 01:25:46,326
You know there's been
this friction about

989
01:25:46,350 --> 01:25:47,965
you being fired
and me staying on.

990
01:25:50,187 --> 01:25:51,987
1 didn't want to make
you feel guilty as well.

991
01:25:55,484 --> 01:25:56,894
Guilty?

992
01:25:56,985 --> 01:25:57,985
Guilty about what, Harry?

993
01:25:58,070 --> 01:25:59,070
Why did they fire you?

994
01:25:59,738 --> 01:26:00,898
They didn't fire me.

995
01:26:02,074 --> 01:26:03,484
No, I...

996
01:26:03,575 --> 01:26:04,815
1 quit.

997
01:26:07,079 --> 01:26:08,694
1 didn't agree with
how they treated you.

998
01:26:09,581 --> 01:26:11,309
And I got on the wrong side
of the decision-makers.

999
01:26:11,333 --> 01:26:12,935
So, they basically said
they couldn't care less

1000
01:26:12,959 --> 01:26:14,039
who worked for them.

1001
01:26:15,045 --> 01:26:16,045
So...

1002
01:26:16,672 --> 01:26:17,672
1 quit.

1003
01:26:22,302 --> 01:26:23,655
I'm not going to
push forward some company

1004
01:26:23,679 --> 01:26:25,340
that doesn't value
its people, Roy.

1005
01:26:27,808 --> 01:26:28,868
What were you thinking, Harry?

1006
01:26:28,892 --> 01:26:29,892
I don't care.

1007
01:26:30,811 --> 01:26:33,553
Anyway, I'm back with the unr's
research group now, so.

1008
01:26:36,400 --> 01:26:37,890
I had no idea.

1009
01:26:37,984 --> 01:26:40,691
Oh, it's not so bad for me.
I'm a scientist,

1010
01:26:40,779 --> 01:26:41,814
I belong in a lab anyway.

1011
01:26:44,616 --> 01:26:46,732
Besides, it's you
I'm worried about, Roy.

1012
01:26:46,827 --> 01:26:48,467
Working for ensat
and the Goodman project,

1013
01:26:48,495 --> 01:26:49,655
it meant everything to you.

1014
01:26:50,330 --> 01:26:51,695
It meant everything
to both of us.

1015
01:26:51,790 --> 01:26:53,826
Honestly, I'm fine.
It's all fine.

1016
01:26:53,917 --> 01:26:55,327
No, Harry.

1017
01:26:55,419 --> 01:26:56,419
It's not fine.

1018
01:26:58,547 --> 01:27:00,629
This whole time
I've not able to let go.

1019
01:27:03,093 --> 01:27:04,879
And I've been
ignoring our friendship.

1020
01:27:06,513 --> 01:27:08,366
You've been trying to help me
and not once did it occur to me

1021
01:27:08,390 --> 01:27:10,426
that you may have been
affected by what happened.

1022
01:27:12,436 --> 01:27:14,427
- It's okay.
- No, Harry. It's not okay.

1023
01:27:17,190 --> 01:27:20,353
I'm sorry you lost
your job because of me,

1024
01:27:20,444 --> 01:27:22,526
and I'm sorry
I've treated you this way.

1025
01:27:24,072 --> 01:27:25,778
- If I'd known...
- Roy.

1026
01:27:27,367 --> 01:27:29,323
Look, what we're
doing tonight...

1027
01:27:30,912 --> 01:27:32,322
Out in the field as mates...

1028
01:27:35,125 --> 01:27:37,707
This... right now...

1029
01:27:39,921 --> 01:27:41,127
This is what it's about.

1030
01:27:43,049 --> 01:27:44,289
Not some job.

1031
01:28:01,109 --> 01:28:02,474
It's a shame
you don't have yours.

1032
01:28:06,782 --> 01:28:08,738
I thought you said
you didn't bring it?

1033
01:28:11,870 --> 01:28:13,155
I said I wasn't
going to wear it.

1034
01:28:16,124 --> 01:28:18,331
With Goodman,
I was part of a team.

1035
01:28:19,169 --> 01:28:20,204
And I lost that.

1036
01:28:21,421 --> 01:28:23,582
But I now realize I've always
been a part of this team.

1037
01:28:32,015 --> 01:28:33,846
Right, let's get to work.

1038
01:28:35,685 --> 01:28:37,676
Don't you start
bossing me around now.

1039
01:28:37,771 --> 01:28:39,602
Well, I am the head
of the astro-nuts.

1040
01:28:39,689 --> 01:28:41,054
Head of the astro...

1041
01:28:41,149 --> 01:28:42,355
That's not funny, Harry.

1042
01:28:44,069 --> 01:28:45,730
Harry? Let's talk about this.

1043
01:28:46,905 --> 01:28:49,271
Harry? I thought I was
the head astro-nut?

1044
01:28:49,366 --> 01:28:51,231
You were, but you
were gone so long

1045
01:28:51,326 --> 01:28:54,443
the board voted you out.
=the board?

1046
01:28:54,538 --> 01:28:57,325
Harry, there's only three
members, how is that a board?

1047
01:29:03,505 --> 01:29:05,871
Well, who put you
in charge then?

1048
01:29:05,966 --> 01:29:08,708
We had a vote. Naturally
everyone voted for themselves,

1049
01:29:08,802 --> 01:29:10,463
so we had to draw straws, but...

1050
01:29:11,930 --> 01:29:12,965
I won.

1051
01:29:13,807 --> 01:29:14,967
That's so you.

1052
01:29:15,809 --> 01:29:18,016
Nice hats. Look, right,
I'm just on the phone to Dave,

1053
01:29:18,103 --> 01:29:20,594
not a happy chap.
Anyway, nothing, not a peep,

1054
01:29:20,689 --> 01:29:22,917
look, apparently, we've got some
telemetry dropout from a few satellites.

1055
01:29:22,941 --> 01:29:24,806
- Goodman.
- Right.

1056
01:29:24,901 --> 01:29:26,420
Look, I dunno what it means,
but we can't rule anything out

1057
01:29:26,444 --> 01:29:27,880
as coincidence.
When's she due to pass

1058
01:29:27,904 --> 01:29:29,735
- over again?
- Eight minutes.

1059
01:29:29,823 --> 01:29:31,734
Okay. Well, let's get on it.

1060
01:29:31,825 --> 01:29:33,427
There's something going on here
guys I reckon we've got the jump

1061
01:29:33,451 --> 01:29:34,929
on everyone else.
Harry, go fire up the scope.

1062
01:29:34,953 --> 01:29:38,241
Absolutely. That's more like it.

1063
01:29:38,331 --> 01:29:40,142
Yep, we're going to have
to speak to you later, Dave.

1064
01:29:40,166 --> 01:29:41,497
Yeah, great. =yeah.

1065
01:29:41,585 --> 01:29:43,496
Okay, bye. Yeah.

1066
01:29:47,299 --> 01:29:48,299
Mike?

1067
01:30:21,207 --> 01:30:22,207
Now, we're talking.

1068
01:30:23,001 --> 01:30:25,583
Right, chief. Let's do this.

1069
01:30:33,720 --> 01:30:35,335
One minute! One minute!

1070
01:30:36,139 --> 01:30:38,004
Come on, load
the last recording.

1071
01:30:38,099 --> 01:30:39,714
Okay, I've got it, here it is.

1072
01:30:45,482 --> 01:30:46,642
I need some numbers, Roy.

1073
01:30:46,733 --> 01:30:47,973
I khow, I know.

1074
01:30:48,068 --> 01:30:49,308
Come on, come on, fast forward.

1075
01:30:51,112 --> 01:30:52,112
There.

1076
01:30:54,783 --> 01:30:55,783
I told you.

1077
01:31:09,297 --> 01:31:10,377
Numbers?

1078
01:31:10,465 --> 01:31:11,955
We've got 30 seconds, guys.

1079
01:31:12,050 --> 01:31:14,041
Elevation, 18 degrees,
south by south-east.

1080
01:31:15,512 --> 01:31:17,343
18 degrees, south, southeast?

1081
01:31:17,430 --> 01:31:19,091
Bearing, one-five-niner.

1082
01:31:19,182 --> 01:31:20,672
One-five-niner.

1083
01:31:20,767 --> 01:31:22,052
20 seconds!

1084
01:31:26,481 --> 01:31:27,846
Scope set, we're rolling.

1085
01:31:27,941 --> 01:31:29,351
Ten seconds, here she comes.

1086
01:31:30,193 --> 01:31:31,808
Keep your eyes peeled, boys.

1087
01:31:34,155 --> 01:31:35,315
Five,

1088
01:31:35,407 --> 01:31:36,442
four,

1089
01:31:36,574 --> 01:31:37,859
three,

1090
01:31:37,951 --> 01:31:38,951
two,

1091
01:31:39,703 --> 01:31:40,703
one.

1092
01:31:48,211 --> 01:31:49,417
Got it.

1093
01:31:49,504 --> 01:31:50,504
Tracking.

1094
01:32:28,793 --> 01:32:29,828
Hold that position.

1095
01:32:34,424 --> 01:32:35,424
I told you.

1096
01:32:36,259 --> 01:32:37,465
What did I tell you, huh?

1097
01:32:38,344 --> 01:32:40,255
What in god's name
is going on here?

1098
01:32:44,476 --> 01:32:45,476
Sky map.

1099
01:32:47,937 --> 01:32:49,848
Mike, your sky map.

1100
01:32:51,775 --> 01:32:52,775
Sky map?

1101
01:32:56,362 --> 01:32:58,318
No, the image from
your system earlier.

1102
01:32:58,406 --> 01:33:00,988
It's gone,
his hard-drive's fried.

1103
01:33:01,076 --> 01:33:02,803
- Damn it.
- Well, look, I lost the one from earlier,

1104
01:33:02,827 --> 01:33:05,068
but I can run the program again.
=do it.

1105
01:33:05,163 --> 01:33:07,825
Do you remember it doesn't
work properly, right? =do it.

1106
01:33:09,876 --> 01:33:10,911
Okay.

1107
01:33:16,674 --> 01:33:18,460
There.

1108
01:33:18,551 --> 01:33:19,791
That.

1109
01:33:19,886 --> 01:33:20,966
Yeah, what about it?

1110
01:33:21,971 --> 01:33:23,461
What if this is
no system glitch?

1111
01:33:25,475 --> 01:33:27,807
What if your program
works perfectly?

1112
01:33:28,686 --> 01:33:29,971
And this...

1113
01:33:31,106 --> 01:33:32,312
This is no error.

1114
01:33:35,401 --> 01:33:37,938
What if this,
whatever this is...

1115
01:33:39,656 --> 01:33:41,362
Is what's blocking
the satellites?

1116
01:33:45,495 --> 01:33:47,577
You said yourself your program
is looking straight up

1117
01:33:48,414 --> 01:33:51,577
and that should not be there.

1118
01:33:56,589 --> 01:33:58,125
Harry, has your
scope got infrared?

1119
01:34:00,093 --> 01:34:01,549
Yeah.

1120
01:34:01,636 --> 01:34:02,876
Yeah, it does.

1121
01:34:17,735 --> 01:34:18,735
That's not right.

1122
01:34:19,821 --> 01:34:22,437
Space should read
as dark red in ir mode.

1123
01:34:22,532 --> 01:34:23,897
Black is wrong.

1124
01:34:24,701 --> 01:34:26,737
There's nothing there,
there's not even stars.

1125
01:34:28,580 --> 01:34:29,990
Wait, Harry, stop.

1126
01:34:34,419 --> 01:34:35,499
Pan right.

1127
01:34:45,221 --> 01:34:46,221
Stop.

1128
01:34:49,642 --> 01:34:50,677
Stars.

1129
01:35:09,829 --> 01:35:10,829
Zoom out.

1130
01:35:13,708 --> 01:35:14,708
Keep coming.

1131
01:35:22,300 --> 01:35:24,131
There's something up there.

1132
01:35:25,136 --> 01:35:26,136
Oh, my god.

1133
01:35:59,379 --> 01:36:01,040
I don't believe it.

1134
01:36:02,840 --> 01:36:04,501
1 do not believe it.

1135
01:36:22,819 --> 01:36:24,150
It's been there all night.

1136
01:36:25,613 --> 01:36:27,103
Right above us.

1137
01:36:29,117 --> 01:36:30,948
You are recording this right?

1138
01:36:40,378 --> 01:36:41,378
Roy?

1139
01:36:42,213 --> 01:36:43,453
Roy, get a load of this.

1140
01:36:49,429 --> 01:36:50,669
I can't see anything.

1141
01:37:00,106 --> 01:37:01,346
Well, it's no wonder.

1142
01:37:02,025 --> 01:37:03,936
Whatever it is,
it isn't reading on the scope

1143
01:37:04,027 --> 01:37:06,387
in the visible spectrum, but in
infrared it's crystal clear.

1144
01:37:07,739 --> 01:37:09,604
Yeah, and I'm getting
a strong radio signature.

1145
01:37:10,825 --> 01:37:12,406
Christ.

1146
01:37:12,493 --> 01:37:13,778
Do we report this?

1147
01:37:14,495 --> 01:37:16,076
I wouldn't know what to report.

1148
01:37:17,957 --> 01:37:20,269
Well, surely, if it's visible through
infrared, NASA's got to be picking it up.

1149
01:37:20,293 --> 01:37:21,783
Probably.

1150
01:37:21,919 --> 01:37:23,564
To be honest,
anyone with an infrared scope

1151
01:37:23,588 --> 01:37:25,670
would be able to see this,
but you know,

1152
01:37:25,757 --> 01:37:27,668
it's not exactly drawing
attention to itself.

1153
01:37:28,885 --> 01:37:30,654
It's got to be a couple
of hundred meters wide,

1154
01:37:30,678 --> 01:37:32,634
probably about the size
of a football stadium,

1155
01:37:33,306 --> 01:37:35,092
and although, yeah,
that's pretty big,

1156
01:37:35,892 --> 01:37:37,852
compared to the rest
of the sky it's pretty small.

1157
01:37:38,978 --> 01:37:41,640
Unless you were combing
systematically across the whole sky,

1158
01:37:41,731 --> 01:37:43,221
you'd easily miss it,
look, watch.

1159
01:37:51,616 --> 01:37:53,777
It's basically
a shadow in space.

1160
01:37:54,911 --> 01:37:57,118
Pretty hard to see
shadows in the dark.

1161
01:38:04,045 --> 01:38:05,956
I never would've believed it.

1162
01:38:24,023 --> 01:38:25,354
What the hell?

1163
01:38:29,028 --> 01:38:30,143
What is that?

1164
01:38:37,912 --> 01:38:39,118
I mean, that's sound.

1165
01:38:40,206 --> 01:38:41,821
It's real time imaging,
it works.

1166
01:38:42,583 --> 01:38:44,869
Look, my system works,
it actually works.

1167
01:38:49,090 --> 01:38:50,090
No.

1168
01:39:01,185 --> 01:39:02,721
It's the source of the signal.

1169
01:39:05,565 --> 01:39:07,209
Look, it's transmitting,
I mean, these pulses,

1170
01:39:07,233 --> 01:39:09,233
they sync with the clicks
coming through the tuner.

1171
01:39:10,027 --> 01:39:11,463
It wasn't a bounce back at all.
=no.

1172
01:39:11,487 --> 01:39:13,273
It was being broadcast
from orbit.

1173
01:39:15,366 --> 01:39:16,606
Sounds like morse code.

1174
01:39:19,871 --> 01:39:20,871
No.

1175
01:39:22,039 --> 01:39:23,074
No, it's binary.

1176
01:39:30,840 --> 01:39:32,501
Yeah, it's binary.

1177
01:39:34,802 --> 01:39:36,133
It's got to be a loop pattern.

1178
01:39:36,929 --> 01:39:39,511
- Is it random?
- Non-random, binary is never random.

1179
01:39:43,019 --> 01:39:46,056
Why are they transmitting binary?
Out of pure logic.

1180
01:39:46,147 --> 01:39:49,139
Maths is the language of the
universe, no translation required.

1181
01:39:49,233 --> 01:39:52,350
Yeah, two plus two will always equal
four no matter where you come from.

1182
01:39:52,445 --> 01:39:55,061
If an alien civilization is
intelligent enough to transmit,

1183
01:39:55,156 --> 01:39:57,092
let alone travel through space,
then they need maths.

1184
01:39:57,116 --> 01:39:59,156
Yeah, and if another
civilization is advanced enough

1185
01:39:59,202 --> 01:40:01,238
to intercept this signal, then

1186
01:40:01,329 --> 01:40:02,614
they'll definitely know maths.

1187
01:40:04,457 --> 01:40:06,573
But surely, they're more
advanced than simple binary?

1188
01:40:06,667 --> 01:40:08,437
Substantially, yeah,
but they don't know we are.

1189
01:40:08,461 --> 01:40:10,577
It's the best way
to make first contact.

1190
01:40:10,671 --> 01:40:12,502
And maths is common ground.

1191
01:40:16,469 --> 01:40:18,505
You know what else
is binary, don't you?

1192
01:40:20,431 --> 01:40:22,547
Arecibo. Arecibo.

1193
01:40:24,727 --> 01:40:26,342
This is insane.

1194
01:40:26,437 --> 01:40:28,302
Look, tell him about arecibo.

1195
01:40:28,397 --> 01:40:30,809
Okay, Roy, get this,
in the '70s,

1196
01:40:30,900 --> 01:40:32,891
a binary message was
broadcast into space

1197
01:40:32,985 --> 01:40:35,271
from the arecibo
observatory in Puerto Rico.

1198
01:40:35,363 --> 01:40:37,479
1,679 digits, right?

1199
01:40:37,573 --> 01:40:39,092
Yeah, yeah, yeah something like
that, but it was never really

1200
01:40:39,116 --> 01:40:40,572
a serious attempt
to make contact.

1201
01:40:40,660 --> 01:40:41,900
No, not really,

1202
01:40:41,994 --> 01:40:43,180
its purpose was to demonstrate

1203
01:40:43,204 --> 01:40:44,740
the telescope's capabilities.

1204
01:40:45,957 --> 01:40:47,309
I mean, they were aiming
it at a star system

1205
01:40:47,333 --> 01:40:49,073
that was 25,000
light years away.

1206
01:40:49,168 --> 01:40:50,874
That's 50,000 years
for a reply at best.

1207
01:40:51,963 --> 01:40:53,440
Well, you're going to
run up a hell of a bill

1208
01:40:53,464 --> 01:40:55,000
being kept on hold that long.
=yeah.

1209
01:40:56,759 --> 01:40:58,295
It could have been intercepted.

1210
01:41:00,680 --> 01:41:01,715
It's a possibility.

1211
01:41:04,100 --> 01:41:05,431
I think everything's just moved

1212
01:41:05,518 --> 01:41:07,725
from a possibility
to a probability.

1213
01:41:23,077 --> 01:41:24,192
What did you say it was?

1214
01:41:24,287 --> 01:41:25,197
1,600 and?

1215
01:41:25,288 --> 01:41:26,288
79.

1216
01:41:53,065 --> 01:41:54,305
1,679.

1217
01:42:08,289 --> 01:42:09,620
Can you decode on that?

1218
01:42:10,916 --> 01:42:11,916
Silly question.

1219
01:42:17,590 --> 01:42:20,127
Do you have a copy of
the original arecibo message?

1220
01:42:21,093 --> 01:42:22,583
Again, silly question.

1221
01:42:24,138 --> 01:42:27,380
The arecibo is
a simple binary code,

1222
01:42:27,475 --> 01:42:29,682
when arranged correctly,
it reveals...

1223
01:42:31,270 --> 01:42:32,305
This.

1224
01:42:33,564 --> 01:42:35,179
This is what
the original looked like.

1225
01:42:36,067 --> 01:42:38,979
It's a visual message
containing basic information

1226
01:42:39,070 --> 01:42:40,901
about humans
and life on our planet.

1227
01:42:41,906 --> 01:42:45,239
Earth biochemicals, the formula
for DNA, that sort of thing.

1228
01:42:46,285 --> 01:42:49,402
If I remember correctly,
it's 73 columns wide

1229
01:42:50,373 --> 01:42:52,534
with 21 digits in each.

1230
01:42:52,625 --> 01:42:54,240
Arrange the incoming
signal like that,

1231
01:42:54,335 --> 01:42:55,620
let's see what we get.

1232
01:43:10,643 --> 01:43:12,008
I don't believe this.

1233
01:43:13,270 --> 01:43:15,010
It's arecibo all right.

1234
01:43:15,940 --> 01:43:19,057
See, the base-10's is exactly the
same as the original. We've got

1235
01:43:20,236 --> 01:43:22,147
carbon-based biochemistry,

1236
01:43:22,238 --> 01:43:24,445
DNA nucleotides,
the double-helix,

1237
01:43:24,532 --> 01:43:25,817
it's all there.

1238
01:43:35,418 --> 01:43:36,783
Wait...

1239
01:43:38,462 --> 01:43:39,668
There are differences here.

1240
01:43:41,173 --> 01:43:42,504
Where?

1241
01:43:42,591 --> 01:43:43,831
Look.

1242
01:43:44,510 --> 01:43:46,000
Subtle but significant.

1243
01:43:54,895 --> 01:43:56,010
Why is it doing that?

1244
01:44:04,530 --> 01:44:05,815
It's not arecibo.

1245
01:44:08,743 --> 01:44:10,199
It's a response to arecibo.

1246
01:44:18,210 --> 01:44:19,325
It's almost identical.

1247
01:44:21,005 --> 01:44:22,040
Meaning?

1248
01:44:28,262 --> 01:44:30,753
Meaning we're
of common cosmic origin.

1249
01:44:43,944 --> 01:44:44,944
My god.

1250
01:44:55,748 --> 01:44:56,748
No.

1251
01:44:58,375 --> 01:44:59,990
No, no, no, I'm losing power.

1252
01:45:00,085 --> 01:45:02,417
- What?
- Look, my batteries are dying here.

1253
01:45:02,505 --> 01:45:04,816
Jesus, Roy, I thought you designed
these things to last all night?

1254
01:45:04,840 --> 01:45:06,401
For two systems, Harry.
We're running three here,

1255
01:45:06,425 --> 01:45:07,835
plus your scope
and these aerials.

1256
01:45:07,927 --> 01:45:09,792
If we lose power,
we lose everything.

1257
01:45:09,887 --> 01:45:12,032
- Wwhat do you mean, we lose everything?
- The recordings.

1258
01:45:12,056 --> 01:45:14,638
My hard drive's fried, remember.
We got no long-term memory.

1259
01:45:16,143 --> 01:45:17,303
Christ.

1260
01:45:19,438 --> 01:45:21,333
Look, my system can only
hold data while it's running.

1261
01:45:21,357 --> 01:45:22,357
Use my drive.

1262
01:45:23,192 --> 01:45:25,524
This transfer is going
to take time and guzzle power.

1263
01:45:25,611 --> 01:45:27,422
If we can't get the files across
before I lose that power,

1264
01:45:27,446 --> 01:45:28,686
then the system will die.

1265
01:45:30,199 --> 01:45:32,736
We'll lose the recordings.
Jesus.

1266
01:45:32,827 --> 01:45:34,805
Roy, pull the plugs on everything
you've got in the back.

1267
01:45:34,829 --> 01:45:35,909
Got it.

1268
01:45:43,003 --> 01:45:45,494
Come on, come oh, come on.

1269
01:45:45,589 --> 01:45:46,874
Roy, pull it.

1270
01:45:52,805 --> 01:45:54,741
Look, we've got 18 minutes,
that's not going to be enough.

1271
01:45:54,765 --> 01:45:56,255
Do you have any spare batteries?

1272
01:45:56,350 --> 01:45:58,136
I don't know, do we?
You guys packed the car.

1273
01:45:58,227 --> 01:46:00,434
- I didn't pack 'em.
- You mean you packed all this,

1274
01:46:00,521 --> 01:46:01,790
and didn't think
to bring some more batteries?

1275
01:46:01,814 --> 01:46:03,374
Harry, we've got
a serious problem here.

1276
01:46:03,440 --> 01:46:04,771
We've got more than a problem.

1277
01:46:04,859 --> 01:46:06,044
What do you want me to do, Mike?

1278
01:46:06,068 --> 01:46:07,524
We've got no spare batteries.

1279
01:46:12,491 --> 01:46:13,981
What do you want to do, Mike?

1280
01:46:14,743 --> 01:46:16,638
Well, listen, I've got some power
units back at the station.

1281
01:46:16,662 --> 01:46:17,681
We got to go.
We'll never make it.

1282
01:46:17,705 --> 01:46:19,491
Look, we don't have a choice.

1283
01:46:19,582 --> 01:46:20,976
We might be the only
ones getting this data,

1284
01:46:21,000 --> 01:46:22,143
and if we want to save
these recordings,

1285
01:46:22,167 --> 01:46:23,407
we got to do something.

1286
01:46:23,502 --> 01:46:24,867
We've got 18 minutes.

1287
01:46:25,713 --> 01:46:27,669
If we're going to go,
we've got to go right now.

1288
01:46:27,756 --> 01:46:30,088
Mike, we'll never make it.
We can make it.

1289
01:46:31,635 --> 01:46:32,750
I'll get you there.

1290
01:46:34,722 --> 01:46:36,303
Tell me what to do.

1291
01:46:40,144 --> 01:46:42,476
Okay, okay, let's do it.

1292
01:46:42,563 --> 01:46:44,895
We'll get the gear,
you cut loose what you can.

1293
01:46:44,982 --> 01:46:46,097
Wait, Harry!

1294
01:46:46,191 --> 01:46:48,022
What if there's more to come?

1295
01:46:48,110 --> 01:46:49,896
If I pull the transmission,
we'll miss it.

1296
01:46:49,987 --> 01:46:51,648
Look, we've got
to kill it anyway.

1297
01:46:51,739 --> 01:46:53,550
We can't move the vehicle
with the aerials deployed.

1298
01:46:53,574 --> 01:46:55,781
It's better to save what
you've got than lose the lot.

1299
01:47:03,667 --> 01:47:05,373
I can't believe
I'm going to do this.

1300
01:47:19,850 --> 01:47:21,681
Roy, grab the aerials,
I've got the scope.

1301
01:47:21,769 --> 01:47:23,054
I'm on it.

1302
01:47:35,407 --> 01:47:36,738
Come on, come on.

1303
01:47:37,785 --> 01:47:40,743
How we looking? - Transfer's going,
but it is drinking power, okay?

1304
01:47:40,829 --> 01:47:42,724
- We don't have much time.
- This is going to be tight.

1305
01:47:42,748 --> 01:47:44,579
Be as quick as you can, Roy!

1306
01:47:45,668 --> 01:47:47,562
Harry, get your gear loaded,
and get the car started.

1307
01:47:47,586 --> 01:47:49,247
I'm on it.

1308
01:47:50,923 --> 01:47:52,359
Come on, come on, get
that thing in here.

1309
01:47:52,383 --> 01:47:53,703
Hang on, I need
to get the tripod.

1310
01:47:54,843 --> 01:47:56,424
Bloody tripod.

1311
01:48:26,083 --> 01:48:27,118
Key.

1312
01:48:28,293 --> 01:48:29,123
Mike, where's the key?

1313
01:48:29,211 --> 01:48:30,246
I don't have it,

1314
01:48:30,337 --> 01:48:31,827
why would I have it?

1315
01:48:33,007 --> 01:48:34,463
Where's the key?

1316
01:48:44,059 --> 01:48:45,595
Where the hell is Roy?

1317
01:48:47,312 --> 01:48:49,098
Harry, get this car started.

1318
01:48:49,189 --> 01:48:50,645
Key, give me the key!

1319
01:48:50,733 --> 01:48:51,973
Damn it.

1320
01:48:54,445 --> 01:48:56,125
Mike, get this gear
loaded and ready to go.

1321
01:48:56,155 --> 01:48:57,395
Yeah.

1322
01:49:06,081 --> 01:49:07,412
No, no, no, ho, no.

1323
01:49:07,499 --> 01:49:08,830
Come on, come on.

1324
01:49:17,676 --> 01:49:18,676
Come on.

1325
01:49:19,762 --> 01:49:20,762
Come on!

1326
01:49:23,223 --> 01:49:24,338
Eight percent.

1327
01:49:27,603 --> 01:49:29,013
Come on, come on, hurry.

1328
01:49:29,104 --> 01:49:30,594
Harry, get this car started!

1329
01:49:30,689 --> 01:49:32,896
- It won't start!
- We got to go, guys.

1330
01:49:32,983 --> 01:49:34,268
Let me try.

1331
01:49:38,822 --> 01:49:40,278
Come on.

1332
01:49:48,540 --> 01:49:50,121
Come on, Roy. Come on, Roy.

1333
01:49:50,876 --> 01:49:52,082
Come on.

1334
01:49:55,089 --> 01:49:56,204
Come on.

1335
01:49:58,175 --> 01:49:59,711
Come on, get it started, Roy.

1336
01:49:59,802 --> 01:50:00,962
Come on, start.

1337
01:50:03,263 --> 01:50:04,263
Come on.

1338
01:50:10,771 --> 01:50:11,771
Well done.

1339
01:50:11,814 --> 01:50:13,054
Mike, get in!

1340
01:50:13,732 --> 01:50:14,732
It won't fit.

1341
01:50:15,567 --> 01:50:17,649
1 can't get
the scope to fit, Harry.

1342
01:50:17,736 --> 01:50:19,005
She'll fit, Mike.
You're not doing it right.

1343
01:50:19,029 --> 01:50:21,020
Leave it. What?

1344
01:50:21,115 --> 01:50:22,446
We're running out of time.

1345
01:50:23,575 --> 01:50:25,941
=-no, she'll fit. Harry there's
no time for this, come on.

1346
01:50:26,036 --> 01:50:28,014
- Get back in the car.
- She'll fit, she'll fit, she'll fit.

1347
01:50:28,038 --> 01:50:29,038
This is ridiculous.

1348
01:50:30,749 --> 01:50:33,331
I'm sorry, Harry.
She's not going to fit.

1349
01:50:34,670 --> 01:50:36,331
Come on, Annabelle,
get in the car.

1350
01:50:36,421 --> 01:50:38,191
Harry, get back in the car,
we've got to go now.

1351
01:50:38,215 --> 01:50:40,026
Come on, we've got 12 minutes,
we've got to go.

1352
01:50:40,050 --> 01:50:41,586
Just exactly how it was.

1353
01:50:41,718 --> 01:50:43,446
- We haven't got time for this.
- What are you doing,

1354
01:50:43,470 --> 01:50:46,382
just get in the car.
=just over here.

1355
01:50:46,473 --> 01:50:47,473
Harry!

1356
01:50:48,600 --> 01:50:49,806
You've got to leave her.

1357
01:50:51,728 --> 01:50:53,013
We got to go.

1358
01:51:05,909 --> 01:51:07,820
What's he doing, Roy?
We need to go.

1359
01:51:07,911 --> 01:51:09,764
Harry, if you don't come now,
I'm going to leave you here

1360
01:51:09,788 --> 01:51:11,779
in this field, all on
your own, with Annabelle.

1361
01:51:14,835 --> 01:51:16,917
It's just a telescope,
I'll get you another one.

1362
01:51:23,886 --> 01:51:25,342
Roy, just a telescope?

1363
01:51:25,429 --> 01:51:27,215
Yes, I know, I'm sorry.
Put your belt on.

1364
01:51:27,306 --> 01:51:28,825
Look come on, come on.
Put your foot down, Roy.

1365
01:51:28,849 --> 01:51:29,929
Let's go.

1366
01:51:42,863 --> 01:51:43,978
Bloody hell.

1367
01:51:52,456 --> 01:51:53,456
Whoa, whoa, whoa, Roy.

1368
01:51:54,499 --> 01:51:56,186
- You just missed a turning.
- I'm not going that way.

1369
01:51:56,210 --> 01:51:57,896
- We've got to go back.
- No, I know a shortcut.

1370
01:51:57,920 --> 01:51:59,480
It's the only way
we're going to make it.

1371
01:51:59,504 --> 01:52:01,244
You sure? Trust me.

1372
01:52:10,766 --> 01:52:11,951
- Dave. Yeah, good.
- Mike?

1373
01:52:11,975 --> 01:52:13,511
I was just about to call you.

1374
01:52:13,602 --> 01:52:14,954
You were right,
we're beginning to...

1375
01:52:14,978 --> 01:52:15,997
- What?
- Incoming transmi...

1376
01:52:16,021 --> 01:52:17,477
Dave, youre breaking up.

1377
01:52:17,564 --> 01:52:18,770
Signal strength is...

1378
01:52:22,194 --> 01:52:23,671
Dave, I need you
to get to the storeroom

1379
01:52:23,695 --> 01:52:27,062
and pick out
the size 47 power unit.

1380
01:52:27,157 --> 01:52:29,364
What? Size 47.

1381
01:52:29,451 --> 01:52:32,158
- Mike, why do you need the power unit?
- Dave, I can't hear you.

1382
01:52:32,246 --> 01:52:34,202
Mike, I'm losing you,
can you hear me? “What?

1383
01:52:34,289 --> 01:52:35,995
Mike? Dave?

1384
01:52:36,083 --> 01:52:38,074
Dave you're...

1385
01:52:38,168 --> 01:52:40,875
- I've lost signal.
- Yeah, I've got nothing.

1386
01:52:45,592 --> 01:52:46,952
Look, we've got
11 minutes battery.

1387
01:52:47,010 --> 01:52:48,966
Go, Roy, go. =hold on.

1388
01:53:00,774 --> 01:53:02,310
Come on, all these damn cables,

1389
01:53:02,401 --> 01:53:03,937
I can't get a bloody signal.

1390
01:53:09,783 --> 01:53:11,193
Whoa, whoa, Roy, Roy!

1391
01:53:12,494 --> 01:53:13,494
Roy!

1392
01:53:21,878 --> 01:53:23,618
- Shortcut?
- Just get it.

1393
01:53:29,386 --> 01:53:30,171
It's locked!

1394
01:53:30,262 --> 01:53:31,468
Damn it.

1395
01:53:32,597 --> 01:53:34,053
This is not good.

1396
01:53:39,688 --> 01:53:41,053
Look, we've got six percent!

1397
01:53:42,649 --> 01:53:43,889
We're never going to make this.

1398
01:53:45,193 --> 01:53:47,434
- Harry, get the boot.
- They're not bolt cutters, Roy.

1399
01:53:47,529 --> 01:53:49,019
They're all we've got, go!

1400
01:53:55,871 --> 01:53:57,202
Come on.

1401
01:54:17,893 --> 01:54:19,746
- Dave, can you hear me?
- Yeah, I can hear you.

1402
01:54:19,770 --> 01:54:22,307
Yeah, Dave, I need
the size 47 power unit

1403
01:54:22,397 --> 01:54:24,683
- from the storeroom.
- What, why?

1404
01:54:24,775 --> 01:54:26,252
Look, I don't have
time to explain, okay?

1405
01:54:26,276 --> 01:54:28,562
We're coming into
the block c car park.

1406
01:54:28,653 --> 01:54:29,984
Block c, copy.

1407
01:54:35,494 --> 01:54:37,234
No, no, ho, ho,
my hard drive's full.

1408
01:54:37,329 --> 01:54:38,723
Look, Harry,
I need your hard drive.

1409
01:54:38,747 --> 01:54:39,953
Dave, get the power unit.

1410
01:54:40,040 --> 01:54:41,040
Harry, hurry up!

1411
01:54:43,335 --> 01:54:45,826
Come on, come oh, come on.

1412
01:54:53,720 --> 01:54:55,823
Mike, we're getting a major
incoming fransmission here.

1413
01:54:55,847 --> 01:54:57,633
I know, I know,
I bloody told you.

1414
01:54:57,724 --> 01:54:59,510
Signal strength
is off the charts.

1415
01:54:59,601 --> 01:55:03,264
It's arecibo,
it's a response to arecibo.

1416
01:55:03,355 --> 01:55:04,720
Arecibo?

1417
01:55:04,815 --> 01:55:08,103
Look, it's binary,
it's a reply to arecibo,

1418
01:55:08,193 --> 01:55:10,793
but my system's fried, we're losing power.
I need that power unit.

1419
01:55:10,821 --> 01:55:12,732
Otherwise, we're going
to lose all the data.

1420
01:55:18,954 --> 01:55:20,319
Okay, I'm in the storeroom.

1421
01:55:20,414 --> 01:55:21,779
Okay, good, it's in a gray

1422
01:55:21,873 --> 01:55:24,034
pelican case on the top shelf.

1423
01:55:24,126 --> 01:55:27,414
- Which shelf?
- Yeah, top shelf, top shelf, Dave.

1424
01:55:27,504 --> 01:55:28,710
Got it, got it.

1425
01:55:29,714 --> 01:55:32,205
We're coming into
the block c car park.

1426
01:55:32,300 --> 01:55:34,382
We're about five miles out.

1427
01:55:34,469 --> 01:55:35,469
Block c, Roger.

1428
01:55:37,389 --> 01:55:38,469
Come on.

1429
01:55:48,650 --> 01:55:49,765
Hold on.

1430
01:56:06,877 --> 01:56:10,165
The transfers going,
we are back in business.

1431
01:56:16,553 --> 01:56:18,418
What the hell is that?

1432
01:56:18,513 --> 01:56:20,491
We've got four percent battery.
That's five minutes till

1433
01:56:20,515 --> 01:56:21,675
complete system failure.

1434
01:56:23,185 --> 01:56:24,470
Yeah, I'm working on it.

1435
01:56:28,815 --> 01:56:30,305
Dave, you better be there.

1436
01:56:35,447 --> 01:56:36,812
Move!

1437
01:56:36,907 --> 01:56:38,943
Get out of the way!
Come on, move.

1438
01:56:46,124 --> 01:56:47,239
Get out of my way.

1439
01:56:48,210 --> 01:56:49,210
Roy, red light, Roy.

1440
01:56:51,087 --> 01:56:52,167
Red light, Roy, red light.

1441
01:56:56,301 --> 01:56:57,381
Time?

1442
01:56:58,720 --> 01:57:00,085
Less than four minutes.

1443
01:57:02,349 --> 01:57:03,349
Oh my god.

1444
01:57:04,893 --> 01:57:06,303
Hold on. Hold on!

1445
01:57:14,319 --> 01:57:16,150
Whoa, Roy, Roy. Roy, slow down!

1446
01:57:16,238 --> 01:57:17,603
Roy, Roy!

1447
01:57:19,366 --> 01:57:20,885
- Roy, we're never going to make it.
- Roy, what are you doing?

1448
01:57:20,909 --> 01:57:22,490
- Wwe're never going to make it.
- Roy!

1449
01:57:22,577 --> 01:57:23,987
- Roy!
- Roy!

1450
01:57:33,255 --> 01:57:34,791
Christ, that was close.

1451
01:57:34,881 --> 01:57:36,234
I don't think I can breathe.

1452
01:57:38,468 --> 01:57:40,379
You are never
driving my car again, Roy.

1453
01:58:41,364 --> 01:58:43,134
We're here, where do I go?
Mike, where do I go?

1454
01:58:43,158 --> 01:58:44,819
Block c car park.

1455
01:58:44,909 --> 01:58:45,989
There, there.

1456
01:58:46,077 --> 01:58:47,112
I got it, I see it.

1457
01:58:51,541 --> 01:58:52,997
Come on, come on.

1458
01:58:54,419 --> 01:58:55,499
Stop, stop!

1459
01:59:01,092 --> 01:59:02,377
Run, Mike, run!

1460
01:59:09,768 --> 01:59:10,768
One minute, Mike.

1461
01:59:15,231 --> 01:59:17,062
Dave, over here!

1462
01:59:17,150 --> 01:59:18,185
Dave!

1463
01:59:23,114 --> 01:59:24,570
Come on, Mike, this way!

1464
01:59:24,658 --> 01:59:25,658
Come on, in here!

1465
01:59:26,910 --> 01:59:28,525
Give me the cables,
give me the cables!

1466
01:59:30,580 --> 01:59:32,070
Thirty seconds.

1467
01:59:32,165 --> 01:59:33,621
Come on, come oh, come on.

1468
01:59:34,459 --> 01:59:35,619
Hook 'em up.

1469
01:59:37,671 --> 01:59:39,081
Come on, come on.

1470
01:59:40,632 --> 01:59:41,963
Fifteen seconds.

1471
01:59:48,723 --> 01:59:50,964
Red light, you hooked up?

1472
01:59:57,315 --> 01:59:59,101
- Okay, got it. Go!
- Do it, do it.

1473
02:00:07,659 --> 02:00:09,149
Jesus.

1474
02:00:11,538 --> 02:00:13,119
It doesn't get
any closer than that.

1475
02:00:28,430 --> 02:00:30,341
Harry. =dave.

1476
02:00:30,432 --> 02:00:32,468
You remember Roy? =of course.

1477
02:00:32,559 --> 02:00:34,345
- It's been a while.
- Too long.

1478
02:00:35,061 --> 02:00:36,597
Good to see you
out in the field again.

1479
02:00:37,272 --> 02:00:39,388
Sounds like you chaps have
had an interesting night.

1480
02:00:39,482 --> 02:00:40,517
You could say that.

1481
02:00:42,360 --> 02:00:43,840
I didn't know
you all knew each other.

1482
02:00:50,243 --> 02:00:51,363
Oh, it's like a secret clan.

1483
02:00:51,411 --> 02:00:52,742
Oh, you have no idea.

1484
02:00:53,913 --> 02:00:55,528
So, what is
the score here, Dave?

1485
02:00:56,833 --> 02:00:58,448
This is the real deal.

1486
02:00:58,543 --> 02:01:00,454
SETI have just released
an official statement.

1487
02:01:01,337 --> 02:01:02,952
Within the last few minutes

1488
02:01:03,047 --> 02:01:05,038
tracking stations
around the world

1489
02:01:05,133 --> 02:01:06,543
have identified a craft

1490
02:01:07,552 --> 02:01:08,712
in low earth orbit.

1491
02:01:09,721 --> 02:01:11,336
Hiding in the infrared spectrum?

1492
02:01:13,975 --> 02:01:15,055
How'd you know that?

1493
02:01:19,439 --> 02:01:21,145
Have we got some
data to show you.

1494
02:01:28,031 --> 02:01:29,191
That's everything safe.

1495
02:01:30,033 --> 02:01:31,614
On this drive,
we have audio recordings

1496
02:01:31,701 --> 02:01:33,441
of a binary loop pattern
that decoded

1497
02:01:33,536 --> 02:01:36,369
is a clear response
to the arecibo message.

1498
02:01:36,456 --> 02:01:38,642
My god. - Yeah, and if there's
anything left on my hard drive,

1499
02:01:38,666 --> 02:01:40,907
we may well have
the initial beacon signal,

1500
02:01:41,002 --> 02:01:43,243
and Harry has got
infrared video footage

1501
02:01:43,338 --> 02:01:45,203
of that thing in orbit.

1502
02:01:45,882 --> 02:01:47,622
Mike, this is incredible.

1503
02:01:47,717 --> 02:01:49,457
What time was your
acquisition of signal?

1504
02:01:49,552 --> 02:01:50,632
2:54.

1505
02:01:51,471 --> 02:01:52,711
My god.

1506
02:01:53,807 --> 02:01:55,367
That's the earliest
recorded acquisition

1507
02:01:55,391 --> 02:01:56,391
of signal we've had.

1508
02:01:57,644 --> 02:01:59,225
Do you realize what this means?

1509
02:02:01,064 --> 02:02:02,975
You guys are the first.

1510
02:02:12,784 --> 02:02:13,784
The first.

1511
02:03:08,715 --> 02:03:09,715
That's us replying.

1512
02:03:12,260 --> 02:03:14,797
All our tracking stations are
broadcasting the same thing.

1513
02:03:20,852 --> 02:03:21,967
What does it say?

1514
02:03:23,897 --> 02:03:25,307
What else is there to say?

1515
02:03:28,192 --> 02:03:29,932
"Welcome to earth.”

1516
02:04:26,376 --> 02:04:29,743
Come on, come oh, come on.

1517
02:04:56,864 --> 02:04:58,525
Oh my god.

1518
02:05:21,347 --> 02:05:22,741
1 don't think you'll
have any problems

1519
02:05:22,765 --> 02:05:24,255
with your funding
from now on, Mike.

1520
02:06:19,572 --> 02:06:20,778
Il never thought...

1521
02:06:22,283 --> 02:06:24,319
No one ever thought
they'd see this.

1522
02:06:26,579 --> 02:06:28,695
The world's going to wake up
in a few hours' time

1523
02:06:28,790 --> 02:06:30,576
and it's never going
to be the same.
