1:34:00
'-Another burn. Copy that.
'-Fire the engines and get 'em on course.
1:34:22
Aquarius, this is Houston.
1:34:24
Houston, Aquarius.
1:34:27
Jim, we've got another
course correction for you.
1:34:31
What's up?
1:34:33
Something about another
course correction.
1:34:35
Uh, we copy, Houston.
1:34:38
Be advised it's gonna take Freddo and I
a while to power up the computer...
1:34:43
for the alignment platform
if we have to fire the engine.
1:34:46
Negative on that, Jim.
1:34:48
We can't spare power
for the computer.
1:34:51
We gotta do this blind?
1:34:53
Without the computer,
what do we use for orientation?
1:34:57
We've got to be able
to give these guys something.
1:35:00
Without the power,
we can't give them a reading.
1:35:02
I'm not talking about power,
I'm talking about reference.
1:35:04
No, there's no references.
We have debris up there.
1:35:07
Houston, what's the story
with this burn?
1:35:10
We're trying to hash something out
down here, Aquarius.
1:35:13
Stand by.
1:35:15
Look, Houston. All we need to hold
attitude is one fixed point in space.
1:35:20
'- Is that not correct?
'- Yeah. Roger that, Jim.
1:35:26
Well, Houston, we've got one.
1:35:30
If we can keep the Earth
in the window, flying manually,
1:35:34
the co'-ax cross hairs
right on its terminator,
1:35:36
all I have to know is: how long
do we need to burn the engine?
1:35:39
'- The shorter, the better.
'- Roger that, Jim.
1:35:43
Can they fly it manually
and still shut it down...
1:35:45
on time without the computer?
1:35:49
I guess that's the best we can do.
1:35:51
We're out of time.
1:35:53
In order to enter
the atmosphere safely,
1:35:55
the crew must aim for a corridor
just two and a half degrees wide.
1:35:59
If they're too steep, they'll incinerate
in the steadily thickening air.
