- Chick, the tranny's stuck.
- Harry!
1:33:10
- What is it?
- Chick, come on! Help!
1:33:13
- Release the clutch!
- Pull it up!
1:33:15
Okay. Well, this thing's not movin'.
1:33:18
No, no, no! Shut it down! Shut it--
1:33:22

1:33:27
This is not workin' out, Harry.
1:33:30
- Oh, are you all right ?
- Oh, blew the tranny.
Blew the tranny.
1:33:34
Come on, God.
1:33:37
Just a little help.
That's all I'm askin'.
1:33:41
I think we're close enough.
He might've heard ya.
1:33:47
Here's the bad news. Before
the asteroid passed the moon,
1:33:50
her rotation was stable
at 32 degrees on an x axis.
1:33:52
But now look at this. The lunar
gravity's put her in a spin.
1:33:57
She's tumbling on all three axes.
This wasn't expected, sir.
1:34:00
- What does this do for communications?
- Not good.
1:34:03
We'll have definite contact with
the shuttle for only seven more minutes.
1:34:06
- After that it's radio darkness.
- For how long?
1:34:08
And after seven minutes,
we may never hear from them again.
1:34:11
But we're trying
to bounce a signal...
1:34:13
off a Russian military satellite,
reestablish contact that way.
1:34:16
If we lose the shuttle com,
when do we lose the ability
to remote detonate that nuke?
1:34:20
The weapon remote receives a signal
from a Milstar satellite.
1:34:23
Higher orbit, more powerful transmitter.
1:34:25
If we've got the shuttle
for seven minutes, we can remote
detonate for an additional five.
1:34:29
What he's trying to say, General,
is that, uh, in 12 minutes' time,
1:34:31
you may lose the ability
to detonate the nuke... permanently.
1:34:34
I've got to inform the president.
1:34:37
Just want to make sure you know
we're stuck on an asteroid.
1:34:40
- Do you know what you're doing now?
- No, no.
1:34:42
You know what? I have no idea
what I'm doing. I have no idea.
1:34:46
This button-- I don't know
what that does, okay?
1:34:48
All I know is that
we just crashed back there,
1:34:50
I lost two of my friends,
we're 25 miles from Harry's shuttle.
1:34:53
We don't know if he's alive.
We don't know if he can fly.
All I know is, there's a beep...
1:34:57
on this thing and I'm
trying to get us there.
