Over half a trillion dollars were spent.
:59:07
Dozens of lives were lost.
:59:11
Are you going to sit there and
tell us we should just take this all...

:59:16
...on faith?
:59:21
Please answer the question, Doctor.
:59:27
Is it possible that it didn't happen?
:59:29
Yes.
:59:33
As a scientist I must concede that.
I must volunteer that.

:59:40
Let me get this straight.
:59:42
You admit you have no physical
evidence to back up your story?

:59:46
Yes.
:59:47
You admit you may have
hallucinated this whole thing?

:59:51
You admit if you were
in our position...

:59:54
...you would be as incredulous
and skeptical as we?

:59:58
Then why don't you simply withdraw
your testimony and concede...

1:00:02
...that this journey to the center
of the galaxy never took place?

1:00:09
Because I can't.
1:00:18
I had an experience.
1:00:23
I can't prove it.
I can't even explain it.

1:00:25
But everything I know as
a human being, everything I am...

1:00:28
...tells me it was real.
1:00:33
I was given something wonderful,
something that changed me forever.

1:00:36
A vision...
1:00:38
...of the universe...
1:00:40
...that tells us undeniably...
1:00:43
...how tiny and insignificant...
1:00:45
...and how rare and precious
we all are.

1:00:50
A vision that tells us
that we belong to something...

1:00:53
...that is greater than ourselves,
that none of us are alone.
