What does it mean, Doctor? Dr. Karl Eckstrom:
It means there are times when a mere scientist has gone as far as he can, when he must pause and observe respectfully while something infinitely greater assumes control. I believe this is one of those times

What does it mean, Doctor?
00:00:04.657 --> 00:00:08.263
It means there are times when a
mere scientist has gone as far as he can.
00:00:08.317 --> 00:00:10.501
We must pause, and
observe respectfully, while
00:00:10.526 --> 00:00:12.094
something infinitely
greater assumes control.
00:00:13.222 --> 00:00:15.541
I believe this is
one of those times.
00:00:16.041 --> 00:00:17.713
We shall go on, of course.
00:00:18.354 --> 00:00:20.015
Our overall fuel
consumption was...
00:00:20.401 --> 00:00:21.604
42 percent!
00:00:22.234 --> 00:00:24.261
A martian landing,
approaching a planet with
00:00:24.285 --> 00:00:26.549
atmosphere, is far easier
than a lunar maneuver.
00:00:27.817 --> 00:00:28.958
Certainly we shall go on.
00:00:28.983 --> 00:00:32.301
We should be betraying an
unprecedented opportunity to do otherwise.
00:00:32.906 --> 00:00:35.585
Then I'd suggest there's a
couple of little things we might do.
00:00:35.638 --> 00:00:37.569
This ship isn't going
to land itself, you know.
00:00:41.123 --> 00:00:42.177
Mars...
00:00:42.974 --> 00:00:44.263
Well, I'll be darned.
00:00:44.288 --> 00:00:46.388
We must first compute
the correct thrust and fuel
00:00:46.412 --> 00:00:48.724
mixture to comply with
anticipated conditions.
00:00:49.248 --> 00:00:52.261
Escape velocity
12,500 miles an hour.
00:00:52.507 --> 00:00:55.979
Oxygen at surface level 15%.
