:14:00
...and this is astronaut Ethan Glance.
:14:02
We're with NASA.
:14:06
It was in your car.
I heard someone scream.
:14:09
Thanks for saving the day.
Now what is it you want?
:14:13
Could we have
a minute of your time?
:14:15
You should've called ahead of time.
I'm a very busy man.
:14:20
Dr.Corvin, we're here because a
satellite with your guidance system...
:14:24
...is about to reenter the atmosphere.
The system is non-responsive.
:14:29
You want to take a crack at it?
:14:34
There seems to be an interruption
in the path here.
:14:37
But the circuitry still works.
It's sending us data.
:14:41
You're losing your uplink.
:14:45
There has to be a problem
in the manual routing drive.
:14:48
I don't think so.
:14:50
That's the consensus
among the engineers.
:14:53
Same engineers that sent you two here?
:14:59
Sorry, does that bother you?
:15:00
Yes, it does, actually.
:15:03
Your design predates
all existing guidance systems.
:15:07
It was ahead of its time in '69
but this technology's obsolete now.
:15:12
None of the current engineers
even speak the language...
:15:15
...and the older guys are all...
:15:18
- ...are...
- Yeah.
:15:20
It wasn't designed for this
duration of duty, that's what.
:15:25
It was designed for the Skylab.
:15:27
My advice is to capture it
and bring it home.
:15:30
It's too big.
:15:32
For the space shuttle?
What kind of bird is it?
:15:35
It's a Russian
communications satellite.
:15:40
What the hell's my guidance system
doing on a Russian satellite?
:15:44
That's not our primary concern
at this time.
:15:48
Where's it orbiting? Or is that
not your primary concern either?
:15:53
1,000 miles.
:15:56
Rate of decay?
:15:57
8,000 meters per day and accelerating.
