:25:00
You'd have to.
But how would you keep your course?

:25:04
A compass.
:25:06
Beyond these dunes,
we are surrounded by Altai Mountains.

:25:10
And they are mostly magnetic rock.
:25:15
Have you ever seen a compass dance?
:25:21
What about this map?
I'll just take this map.

:25:24
How old is that map, Captain?
:25:27
Too old, the way the sand shifts
around here all the time.

:25:30
And Captain Towns's calculations
could be off by 20 percent.

:25:34
- No offense. I'm not saying that they are.
- None taken.

:25:37
But even if the captain
is one percent in error...

:25:40
and you march 300 miles by the stars...
:25:43
you'd miss Langhu, and you wouldn't
even know it was there to miss.

:25:47
You'd be walking in a circle.
:25:48
- You're right-handed?
- Right.

:25:51
That means your right leg's more developed
than your left. You take a longer step with it.

:25:55
You'd be walking
in a left-handed circle.

:25:57
You know what?
Forget it, all right? Y'all win, okay?

:26:00
This isn't about winning or losing.
:26:02
This is about staying alive.

Hey, Rod?
:26:22
Hmm?
:26:25
[ Nervous Chuckle ]
You don't--

:26:29
[ Whispering ]
You don't think the suit was right...

:26:31
do you?
:26:33
That I jinxed us or--
:26:37
Don't worry about it,John.
:26:41
Just try and get some sleep.
