:14:00
l lost leave for this?
Thank you so much!
:14:03
Smitty, sit down.
:14:07
Cooper, as you were.
:14:08
Just let the man speak.
:14:10
What was made public
about the Event Horizon...
:14:14
that she was a research vessel,
:14:16
that her reactor went critical,
and she blew up...
:14:19
none of that is true.
:14:21
The Event Horizon was
a secret government project
:14:25
to create a spacecraft capable
of faster-than-light flight.
:14:28
Uh, excuse me.
You can't actually do that.
:14:31
The law of relativity prohibits it.
:14:35
Relativity, yes. We can't break
the law of relativity,
:14:38
but we can go around it.
:14:40
The ship doesn't really
go faster than light.
:14:43
lt creates a gateway
to jump instantaneously
:14:47
from one point to another
light years away.
:14:50
How?
:14:51
Well, that's difficult to...
it's all math.
:14:54
Try us, Doctor.
:14:56
Right. Well, uh,
using layman's terms...
:14:59
we use a retaining magnetic field
:15:01
to focus a narrow beam of gravitons.
:15:04
These, in turn, fold space-time
:15:08
until the space-time curvature
becomes infinitely large
:15:11
and you produce a singularity.
Now, the singularity...
:15:13
Layman's terms.
:15:15
Well, fuck layman's terms.
Do you speak English?
:15:20
lmagine for a minute
that this piece of paper...
:15:25
Uh, excuse me.
That's Vanessa, and that's mine.
:15:28
This piece of paper
represents space-time,
:15:30
and you want to get from "A" here...
:15:35
to "B" there.
:15:37
Now, what's the shortest
distance between two points?
:15:40
A straight line.
:15:43
Wrong. The shortest distance
between two points is zero,
:15:46
and that's what the gateway does...
:15:48
it folds... space
:15:51
so that point "A" and point "B"
:15:54
coexist in the same
space and time.
:15:57
When the spacecraft
passes through the gateway,
