I have to make this--
make this fast.

:23:08
I may not get another chance to--
:23:10
to make--another chance--
:23:13
chance-- to the site--site.
:23:17
There was a low sound that--
:23:20
alow sound--sound--alow sound--
:23:23
Something came out of the top
of the mountain, and it hit us.

:23:26
And... it hit us--
it hit us--

:23:30
Oh, my God !
:23:33
They're dead.
:23:36
God. Nick--
Man ! Dead.

:23:40
- That's it.
:23:44
I don't know.
Luke must be in pretty bad shape...

:23:47
if he hasn't just blasted out of there
in the Earth Return Vehicle.

:23:50
That thing's designed so even one
crew member can fly it back to Earth.

:23:54
Even if Luke was in great shape,
he couldn't get home.

:23:57
An energy pulse of that magnitude
would have fried the E.R.V's computers.

:23:59
Other than the computers,
how do we think the E.R.V. fared ?

:24:02
So far, our modelling says
it should be in pretty good shape.

:24:05
Which means it's gonna be up to us
to get new motherboards,

:24:07
drives and sof tware to Mars
as fast as we can.

:24:09
- Right.
- Slow down, slow down, slow down.

:24:12
- It's gonna take us weeks
just to analyze this data.
- Right.

:24:15
But in the meantime, we've
gotta be working up a mission plan.

:24:19
- Luke needs us now.
- Luke may already be dead.

:24:23
And even if he's not, it's doubtful he
is going to be able to transmit again.

:24:26
So... we wouldn't know
whether it's safe to land...

:24:31
until we were almost there.
:24:43
What about SIMA ?
:24:46
What about SIMA ?
The Saturn imaging probe.

:24:49
It's gonna slingshot around Mars
on its way through the solar system.

:24:52
It could be retasked to take pictures,
read radiation levels
of Mars One base camp.

:24:56
Wait, wait, wait.
We are getting ahead ofourselves.

:24:59
You're forgetting the bigger problem.
The orbits are all wrong.
