I was there at the dawn
of the third age of mankind.
:00:22
It began in the Earth year 2257...
:00:26
...with the founding
of the last of the Babylon stations...
:00:29
...located deep in neutral space.
:00:35
It was a port of call for refugees...
:00:38
...smugglers, businessmen...
:00:41
...diplomats and travelers
from a hundred worlds.
:00:46
It could be a dangerous place...
:00:49
...but we accepted the risk
because Babylon 5...
:00:51
...was our last, best hope for peace.
:00:55
Babylon 5 was a dream given form.
:01:00
A dream of a galaxy without war...
:01:03
...where species from different worlds
could live side by side in mutual respect.
:01:10
Babylon 5 was the last
of the Babylon stations.
:01:14
This is its story.
:01:18
Confirmed, Delta-Gamma Nine,
you are clear for docking.
:01:21
Please surrender control of your vessel
to central computer, on my mark.
:01:26
Mark.
:01:28
Bring her in. Approach vector 557.
:01:31
Vector 557.
:01:41
Final approach to Docking Bay 12B.
:01:46
- Garibaldi, what's up?
- I'm looking for the Commander.
:01:49
We've got someone in Bay 12 needs
his personal clearance to board.
:01:53
I tracked him down. Last I heard,
he was checking out a tourist problem.
:01:56
And no, I don't know what he meant,
so don't ask.
:01:59
I just hope it works out better
than the last one.
