...we've identified who can best
carry out a mission of this magnitude.

:07:03
This job calls for toughness,
both mental and physical toughness...

:07:07
...and in the tradition of
the best of the Air Force...

:07:11
...an ability to follow orders
to the letter.

:07:14
Ladies and gentlemen,
I'd like you to meet Maryanne...

:07:17
...the first American
to cross into outer space.

:07:37
Look, Frank.
She wants to shake your hand.

:07:40
You bastard.
:07:41
Shake her hand for the cameras, Frank.
That is an order.

:08:11
It just isn't responding.
:08:20
Ladies and gentlemen, this is
mission director Sara Holland.

:08:23
She's been monitoring
the situation closely...

:08:26
...and she assures me
that the problem is well in hand.

:08:30
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.
:08:32
As you may know, 11 days ago,
atmospheric tracking determined...

:08:36
...that Russian communications
satellite Ikon...

:08:39
...has initiated orbital degradation.
:08:41
Computer trajectory models
predict a steady acceleration...

:08:44
...in sequence with
the gravitational constant.

:08:47
There's a systems failure in online
navigation and guidance avionics.

:08:51
All redundant systems
are non-responsive.

:08:54
Without active course correction
in the next 30 to 40 days...

:08:58
...the satellite will reenter
the Earth's atmosphere.
