:59:10
What's he saying?
:59:12
Hans is wondering about the
ultimate goal of our expedition.
:59:17
He's asking, "Why?"
:59:19
Alec, suppose
you tell him.
:59:23
Well, why does man
freeze to death
:59:26
trying to reach
the North Pole?
:59:29
Why does man suffer
:59:31
the steaming heat
of the Amazon?
:59:33
Why does he
stagger his mind
:59:36
with the mathematics
of the sky?
:59:39
Once a question mark
:59:40
has arisen in
the human brain,
:59:42
the answer
must be found
:59:43
if it takes
a thousand years.
:59:46
Render that into
a few Icelandic words!
:59:49
Tell him
that scientists
:59:51
have bats in
their belfries.
:59:53
Oh!
1:00:05
Are you all right?
1:00:07
Can you
unhook yourself?
1:00:09
Hans!
1:00:24
I didn't see it!
1:00:26
I didn't see it!
1:00:27
Never mind
about that.
1:00:31
How is it possible?
1:00:33
This way was
clearly indicated.
1:00:35
There must
have been a quake
1:00:38
since
Arne Saknussemm's day.
1:00:39
This is no
recent fissure.
1:00:42
I wasn't
in a position
1:00:45
to observe it
scientifically.
1:00:46
We made a mistake somewhere,
but where?
