00:01:30I'm headed home.
00:01:31Tonight is the night I can feel it.
00:01:33Call me back.
00:01:34I'm going to start tracking and see how large the readings get.
00:01:46I'm going to start tracking and see how large the readings get out of here.
00:01:46Oh, fucking good.
00:01:47Shit, that's moving really fast.
00:01:51Oh, that's it.
00:01:59Hello?
00:02:00Molly, it's Najat.
00:02:01The CME hit early.
00:02:03If it keeps going, we'll have global disasters.
00:02:05It's moving faster than your research model.
00:02:08I've got readings off the charts.
00:02:10Perfect.
00:02:14Oh, my God.
00:02:27The kids are meeting us at Najat's to get readings and figure out where and what's going to hit next.
00:02:35Molly, you okay?
00:02:39Molly?
00:02:43I know he was your friend.
00:02:45I get it.
00:02:52I've clocked over a hundred tremors over the past six hours.
00:02:55Okay.
00:02:57And Najat, he said, geostorm.
00:02:59He wouldn't have concluded that if the numbers didn't add up.
00:03:03Right.
00:03:03The earthquakes that we're experiencing, the temperature drops, the ocean currents, they're
00:03:11all over the map.
00:03:12We need to warn the administration.
00:03:14But without React, they won't listen to us.
00:03:17We need hard evidence, and I know we'll find it at Najat's.
00:03:21Molly?
00:03:24I'm fine.
00:03:26Okay.
00:03:27I want my computers, and I want my company back.
00:03:30What would all those computers tell you that you don't already know?
00:03:33How am I going to know that now, huh?
00:03:36Come on.
00:03:37This isn't you, Molly.
00:03:40David Diaz took React from me.
00:03:42Yes.
00:03:43He took all of my equipment, my research, my whole life.
00:03:46You know, I was really building towards something, and now...
00:03:48You don't need all that gear.
00:03:50You got us.
00:03:54You got us.
00:04:02God.
00:04:03This whole house is completely destroyed.
00:04:07This is not a good sign.
00:04:24I set up the array.
00:04:26Connector's on backwards.
00:04:31That's why your signal-to-noise is tanking.
00:04:34I'm not a scientist.
00:04:35She knows that.
00:04:36I shouldn't even be here.
00:04:38That's fine.
00:04:40Why isn't Clay doing this?
00:04:41Your brother's over there doing science stuff.
00:04:47Hey, don't let her go down to your skin, okay?
00:04:49You're just as qualified to be here.
00:04:51Yeah?
00:04:53My liberal arts degree is really helping next to your multiple PhDs.
00:04:57I could help you weave a basket.
00:05:00I have two PhDs, and I'm still replaceable by AI with three prompts.
00:05:04Your basket weaving has another two minutes.
00:05:07Okay, Einstein.
00:05:08Just help me turn this connector around.
00:05:11Okay, this goes here.
00:05:14Okay.
00:05:14This goes here.
00:05:14Go to the top.
00:05:27Mom.
00:05:29Look at the grass.
00:05:33The dendritic pattern from the strike point, it looks like it radiated from the ground,
00:05:38not from above.
00:05:39Lightning doesn't come from the ground.
00:05:41Didn't they teach you at what college did you go to again?
00:05:45Funny.
00:05:46You know, I'd love to go to school, but I'm too busy helping my family stop disasters.
00:05:51For some reason, they just keep happening.
00:05:54Uh, Molly, solar wind speeds picked up 600 kilometers per second, proton densities through
00:06:01the roof, magnetometers are pinging like crazy.
00:06:04We shouldn't be seeing this.
00:06:07Auroras are northern lights.
00:06:08This is too far south.
00:06:10The CME's massive magnetic fields are reacting with our own.
00:06:13That's why we can see the auroras.
00:06:16Okay, so then what is it?
00:06:18Geostorm.
00:06:19A geomagnetic storm.
00:06:25The heat it would take to make an imprint like this is enormous.
00:06:29Could lightning do that?
00:06:31Not normal lightning.
00:06:34Mom.
00:06:38These are my geost notes.
00:06:41Travis?
00:06:42Travis Hayes?
00:06:43Wait, the Travis Hayes?
00:06:46Do you know him?
00:06:48That sounds like a story.
00:06:50Please.
00:06:50Now, we went to Berkeley together.
00:06:52We did a few Peace Corps runs together.
00:06:54It's nothing.
00:06:55Was that before or after he won his first or second Nobel Prize in mathematics?
00:07:01Clay, I found this in the rubble.
00:07:03Make sure the memory card is intact.
00:07:05If it's not, then the last 90 days of work are useless.
00:07:09Let's get back and figure out why this geostorm is growing so large.
00:07:11And what about the card?
00:07:13The data box only suffered superficial damage, so if we take it back to the lab, I can open it.
00:07:17Is there anyone left in the house?
00:07:20Najat lived alone.
00:07:22I found his ring.
00:07:24He never took it off, even after Sadie had passed.
00:07:28Mom, I'm so sorry about your friend.
00:07:30I'm sorry.
00:07:31Sorry, Molly.
00:07:47Hey, you want some company?
00:07:53Everything just vanished.
00:07:54No warning.
00:07:57Just gone.
00:08:00The neighborhood.
00:08:01The house.
00:08:03People.
00:08:06Najat.
00:08:10It's a lot.
00:08:17Not his journals.
00:08:19And I just, I feel like there's an answer in here somewhere.
00:08:22So you can use these?
00:08:25I'm trying to, but it just, it feels like a math problem that I can't figure out.
00:08:28Well, why do you have to figure it out?
00:08:32I mean, who else is going to?
00:08:34David Diaz?
00:08:35David's a tool, and he's short-sighted.
00:08:37You know, maybe he's surrounded himself with a lot of smart people this time.
00:08:43You don't have to save the world again and again and again.
00:08:47And you don't have to do it alone.
00:08:52I'm sorry, I can't stop.
00:08:54I can't stop.
00:08:55I just, I feel like everything that's happened so far is just building to something really big.
00:09:00And I don't know how we're going to survive this.
00:09:01Your family, us, we have our strengths.
00:09:05We want to support you.
00:09:06We're here for you.
00:09:07Use us.
00:09:08I know.
00:09:08I just want everybody to be safe.
00:09:11I do, too.
00:09:12I do, too.
00:09:25Sunspots.
00:09:26What?
00:09:28Sunspots.
00:09:29Come on.
00:09:37Sunspots.
00:09:38Sunspots.
00:09:42Sunspots.
00:09:59How are you doing?
00:10:01Oh, um, I got the memory card out and intact,
00:10:05and I'm trying to see what's on it, but...
00:10:07Trouble?
00:10:09It isn't password protected.
00:10:12That's interesting.
00:10:13But there's three security questions,
00:10:15and if I answer any of them wrong,
00:10:17everything's deleted.
00:10:19Well, try me.
00:10:21Maybe I can help.
00:10:23Okay.
00:10:26What do you do when your round of golf
00:10:28is interrupted by lightning?
00:10:31Undoubtedly, Travis is golf humor.
00:10:33No one plays, but he did,
00:10:34so no one got the joke.
00:10:36Use a one iron.
00:10:37Even God can't hit a one iron.
00:10:40Dumb, I know.
00:10:41One dash iron.
00:10:46One iron worked.
00:10:47Nice.
00:10:48Okay, next question.
00:10:50Who is the Wilbur Hall cat?
00:10:53It was a stray cat we all used to feed.
00:10:56He would roam the commons.
00:10:58I keep thinking his name is Chowderface.
00:11:02Carrot cake.
00:11:04Yeah, long story.
00:11:07It worked.
00:11:09Okay, two down.
00:11:11Okay, last question.
00:11:14Think you're faster than me?
00:11:15What's the measure of the...
00:11:17Jack that card now.
00:11:18Clay, right now.
00:11:18No, no.
00:11:19The card is self-deleting data.
00:11:25Travis, it's Judy.
00:11:26Again, I know you have a fancy Nobel trophy,
00:11:29but you're also only four months rent.
00:11:39Unknown device.
00:11:41You're not getting the Jets' info that easily.
00:11:44Whoa, what?
00:11:46What the?
00:11:52Whoa.
00:12:04Holy, that was the longest one yet.
00:12:08The readings are accurate.
00:12:102.53 seconds.
00:12:12That is a measurable loss of gravity.
00:12:15In your face, Isaac Newton.
00:12:27You know, I was very instrumental in all that funding.
00:12:30I told President Carlson that day that when he...
00:12:35What?
00:12:35We got it.
00:12:37Another gravitational anomaly.
00:12:39A big one.
00:12:422.53 seconds?
00:12:44That's insane.
00:12:46Dr. James, send direct and copy the data.
00:12:49I mean, this is incredible.
00:12:51These are off-the-chart gravity pulls.
00:12:53Finally, we can quantify their existence
00:12:56and get the Paladin project off the ground.
00:12:58We can prevent these geostorms for good.
00:13:01We have the proof.
00:13:03Emergency dispatch in Roanoke.
00:13:04Lit up with 911 calls of people and things lifting off the ground.
00:13:08And this was after a magnitude 6.2 in Tramway, North Carolina
00:13:10took everyone by surprise.
00:13:12It's just 163 miles between the two locations.
00:13:15Both events only three months after the weightlessness incident in Wilmington.
00:13:18Natasha, there is a pattern emerging here.
00:13:22We need to move forward with the Paladin project.
00:13:24Okay.
00:13:25This is good, but...
00:13:27No buts!
00:13:29Sorry.
00:13:32The proposal that I laid out for the Paladin project
00:13:35has everything in there to stop this geostorm.
00:13:38We launch a set of magnetic sails at the size and the gauge specs that I proposed,
00:13:43then we can stop this storm.
00:13:45It's not enough, David.
00:13:46I need more ground data that points to concrete evidence for an actual solution, not theory.
00:13:52The Paladin project is not theory.
00:13:55My sails will reflect and reduce the effects of solar flares hitting the Earth.
00:14:00Without it, I don't know where we'll be in a year.
00:14:04FEMA is overseeing disaster response for multiple catastrophes.
00:14:09Lightning storm, earthquakes, you name it.
00:14:11The President's even launching a program to get citizens to help us.
00:14:15That's how strapped we are.
00:14:18This is preventative.
00:14:20Speculate about best.
00:14:22I agree.
00:14:24But per the President, I am under your jurisdiction.
00:14:28Without Paladin project to stop this geostorm,
00:14:31the entire East Coast is going to be destroyed,
00:14:33and millions of people are going to die.
00:14:37So please, help me.
00:14:40Help FEMA's REACT program.
00:14:43Help everyone.
00:14:47You want to launch Paladin?
00:14:49You get me the support I need in explaining why this should be approved and funded.
00:15:00She can't do that.
00:15:01She loves playing gatekeeper.
00:15:02I'll talk directly with the President.
00:15:04I'll tell him that he needs to make REACT an independent body from FEMA.
00:15:07You can do that?
00:15:07Of course I can.
00:15:10Yeah.
00:15:13My fellow Americans,
00:15:15we have weathered ice and inferno,
00:15:18earthquake and despair.
00:15:20I stood shoulder deep
00:15:21in the frozen darkness of that killer ice storm.
00:15:25And I rose from the dead.
00:15:27A better man.
00:15:29Not the President chosen by the people,
00:15:31but by divine power.
00:15:34And I take on this role with humble gratitude.
00:15:37Even though I am ready to lay down my life for America,
00:15:40I know our country needs more than just one man in this fight.
00:15:45It feels like only yesterday this country weathered catastrophic disasters on the same level.
00:15:50Yet we made it through.
00:15:51This time will be just as tough.
00:15:53But we will do it together.
00:15:55I am honored to introduce
00:15:56the Rebuild America program.
00:16:00Sign up.
00:16:00Rebuild.
00:16:01Infrastructure.
00:16:02Restore power.
00:16:04Defend our future.
00:16:06Resistance is not dissent.
00:16:08It's surrender.
00:16:09We will not thumb our nose
00:16:12at the brave men and women
00:16:13who sacrificed their very lives
00:16:16to keep our country safe
00:16:17so that we may have a future.
00:16:20Now, more than ever,
00:16:22we owe it to them
00:16:23to rebuild America even better
00:16:26and keep the dream
00:16:27of a more perfect union alive.
00:16:32This is not sacrifice.
00:16:34It's opportunity.
00:16:36Those who answer the call
00:16:37will receive training.
00:16:40resources
00:16:40and the gratitude of a nation.
00:16:44Those who hesitate
00:16:46will have plenty of time
00:16:48to reflect on what it means
00:16:49to truly be an American.
00:16:53God bless you.
00:16:55And God bless the United States of America.
00:17:00Mr. President,
00:17:01Dr. David Diaz is on the phone for you.
00:17:03Who?
00:17:04Dr. Diaz from React,
00:17:06the team that responds to natural disasters.
00:17:08I know who he is.
00:17:09So you've seen the commercial.
00:17:12What do you think?
00:17:14I like it.
00:17:15Hopefully it will get everyone to enlist.
00:17:17Not too authoritarian?
00:17:20America is going through too many disasters.
00:17:22It needs a strong hand.
00:17:25A strong hand.
00:17:27That could be a campaign slogan.
00:17:32Okay, let's go.
00:17:33Let's release the commercial immediately.
00:17:35And, uh, um,
00:17:36the Diaz guy,
00:17:37can you get somebody else
00:17:38to take the call, please?
00:17:39Yes, sir.
00:17:41A strong hand.
00:17:45I like it.
00:17:51Do you know anything about sunspots?
00:17:53Would it affect the tides?
00:17:55That's the moon.
00:17:56Right.
00:17:56Then, no.
00:17:57I know nothing.
00:17:59Well, uh,
00:18:00Travis and Jat were,
00:18:01they were tracking one,
00:18:02a cluster.
00:18:03It was pretty big.
00:18:04It's been visible for a couple months.
00:18:07The, uh,
00:18:08the aurora that lit up the sky?
00:18:10Perhaps it's all connected.
00:18:12I don't know why they're so severe,
00:18:13but these sunspots
00:18:14could be the source
00:18:15of the geostorm.
00:18:16Then maybe that has something to do
00:18:18with the low gravity
00:18:19that we all witnessed.
00:18:20Well,
00:18:21that would sort of wrap it up
00:18:22in a pretty little package,
00:18:23wouldn't it?
00:18:25Yeah, wishful thinking, huh?
00:18:27Yeah.
00:18:31Now, I know things
00:18:32haven't been ideal
00:18:33between us lately
00:18:34and you hate corny,
00:18:35but I have something for you.
00:18:39Well, you are just
00:18:40full of surprises.
00:18:44Oh, no.
00:18:45It's our anniversary.
00:18:48I'm so sorry, Eric.
00:18:50No, no.
00:18:51It's okay.
00:18:51We've had a lot of challenges
00:18:53these last three months.
00:18:54But if there's one thing
00:18:55I've learned
00:18:56that I can't take for granted,
00:18:58it's our marriage
00:18:59and our family.
00:19:01Or gravity.
00:19:04Especially gravity.
00:19:05Yeah.
00:19:06These are so beautiful.
00:19:09You know,
00:19:10it's a species
00:19:11that, uh,
00:19:11that blooms
00:19:12in very harsh conditions.
00:19:13That's why they grow in pairs.
00:19:16We're facing
00:19:17incredible challenges.
00:19:20But if we can't fight
00:19:21for ourselves
00:19:22or our family,
00:19:24what's the point
00:19:24of fighting?
00:19:26And there is nothing
00:19:27we can't overcome
00:19:29just like those flowers.
00:19:33You should have been a writer.
00:19:36I could listen to you
00:19:37talk all day.
00:19:38Oh, come on.
00:19:39Just a few minutes ago
00:19:40you wanted to kill me.
00:19:41Oh, don't ruin the moment.
00:19:43Okay.
00:19:45Oh, sorry to interrupt.
00:19:47Uh, where are you going?
00:19:49Chrissy wants to go back
00:19:50and see where she can help.
00:19:52Um, there's a lot of
00:19:53evacuations going on there.
00:19:54Are you sure it's safe?
00:19:55Yes.
00:19:56We'll stay in the evacuation zones
00:19:58when we have our meters.
00:19:59She is prepared.
00:20:00I feel helpless
00:20:02waiting around.
00:20:03I need to do something.
00:20:05I have too much
00:20:06of mom in me.
00:20:07Okay.
00:20:09Happy anniversary.
00:20:16So, yeah,
00:20:16I guess I should go
00:20:17call Travis Hayes.
00:20:19Oh, well, okay.
00:20:20I need to get back to work.
00:20:22Good.
00:20:23Good.
00:20:25Good.
00:20:34Happy anniversary.
00:20:37Hey, give me a hand over here.
00:20:42Today is the first day
00:20:44we all rise to meet this challenge.
00:20:48The Rebuild America program
00:20:50begins now.
00:20:52Every citizen is a soldier
00:20:54in this fight.
00:20:55Sign up for the
00:20:56Rebuild America program.
00:20:58America needs a stronghold.
00:21:00I just,
00:21:01I don't even want to hear him speak.
00:21:02Do you know that if you don't join
00:21:04that volunteer program,
00:21:05you can get sent to jail?
00:21:07Yeah, I know.
00:21:08But I guess people really need
00:21:10work and food and shelter, so...
00:21:13I mean, at least this gives them that.
00:21:14Yeah, fine.
00:21:15Okay, then make it volunteer.
00:21:16Not difficult.
00:21:18I'm not disagreeing.
00:21:19Sounds like you are.
00:21:22You know what?
00:21:22How about when this is all over,
00:21:24you and me just go somewhere safe
00:21:27by yourselves and...
00:21:29just have a nice time.
00:21:31Just us.
00:21:33Yeah?
00:21:34Yeah.
00:21:35That'd be great.
00:21:37Are you okay?
00:21:40Look, yeah, um...
00:21:43I'm just worried.
00:21:45About what?
00:21:47Mom, you can talk to me.
00:21:50Maybe I can help.
00:21:53You don't always have to keep everything
00:21:54bottled up and sold.
00:21:59I think my brother's hiding.
00:22:01Felix?
00:22:03Yeah, he's...
00:22:06He's been drafted
00:22:07into that Rebuild America program,
00:22:08and he's not really a fan
00:22:09of President Crossan
00:22:10or the program.
00:22:11What?
00:22:11I just...
00:22:13I don't think you should get
00:22:14thrown in jail because of it.
00:22:15Why didn't you tell me?
00:22:18Yolanda,
00:22:19maybe we could help.
00:22:20How?
00:22:21Your parents are literally
00:22:22being ostracized
00:22:23by the people that they're saving.
00:22:25I mean,
00:22:25they have no connections.
00:22:28Then,
00:22:28I don't know,
00:22:29maybe he can come work for us?
00:22:31Oh, no, I've asked him.
00:22:32He doesn't want the help.
00:22:34I'm sure we can figure this out.
00:22:36No, not everything
00:22:36needs to be figured out,
00:22:37Chrissy.
00:22:38I mean,
00:22:38if we try hard enough,
00:22:39I'm sure...
00:22:39No, stop!
00:22:40Okay?
00:22:40Please, just...
00:22:42I...
00:22:43Look,
00:22:44my brother and I
00:22:45don't always see eye to eye,
00:22:46okay?
00:22:46Even on our best days,
00:22:47and I just...
00:22:50Let's just go
00:22:51where we're needed.
00:22:52Okay?
00:22:53Okay.
00:23:13Yeah?
00:23:14Hello?
00:23:17Molly!
00:23:18Hey!
00:23:18And friends.
00:23:20What took you so long
00:23:21to come see me?
00:23:21Wait to hear what happened.
00:23:23Come in, come in, come in.
00:23:24You were expecting us?
00:23:25Yeah, yeah,
00:23:25you opened up the questions.
00:23:27I floated for 2.53 seconds.
00:23:30What?
00:23:31Yeah, come in, come in.
00:23:32Sit down, sit down.
00:23:33Travis, that's...
00:23:34That's incredible.
00:23:35It's impossible.
00:23:36I'm like a superhero,
00:23:37except I float.
00:23:39I'm a floating superhero.
00:23:40Did you bring my memory card?
00:23:45This is my son, Clay.
00:23:47Clay.
00:23:47Big fan.
00:23:48Oh, Clay, thank you.
00:23:49Well, I see Molly's been
00:23:50the one talking about me,
00:23:51not this guy.
00:23:53So you still haven't
00:23:54shaken the old kiwi off the tree?
00:23:57I'm not from that island, boy.
00:23:59I'm Australian.
00:24:00I left there
00:24:01when I was 24 years old.
00:24:02Ah, just because you lost the axe
00:24:04and doesn't change things.
00:24:06All right, you guys ready to jump in?
00:24:08I still haven't cracked
00:24:09why the CMEs are so intense
00:24:10and consistent.
00:24:11Data shows atmospheric electricity
00:24:13keeps increasing.
00:24:14Yeah, the energy has to go somewhere
00:24:15when it hits the planet.
00:24:17That's why the lightning storm
00:24:18got so intense.
00:24:19And took the job from us.
00:24:20The energy from that solar material
00:24:22seems to be building.
00:24:23Building?
00:24:24Building where?
00:24:24Above us, below us.
00:24:26The entire east post?
00:24:29Yes.
00:24:30So you're saying
00:24:31whatever happens on the ground
00:24:32can affect this,
00:24:33the air, the sky?
00:24:34Kind of,
00:24:35but the other way around.
00:24:36Yeah.
00:24:36The solar flares
00:24:37are aggravating
00:24:38the gravitational pulls.
00:24:39They're affecting the earthquakes.
00:24:40And that's when
00:24:41the gravitational failure hit.
00:24:43Lasts about 2.53 seconds.
00:24:45And then there's a
00:24:46quick drop in barometric pressure
00:24:48about 10 to 15 millibars.
00:24:49Travis, so if this energy
00:24:51is building up,
00:24:52what does that mean?
00:24:54Hundreds of fault lines
00:24:55on the east coast
00:24:55can be triggered.
00:24:57The next CMEs
00:24:58that come through here
00:24:58will have enough strength
00:24:59as a whole roll of them.
00:25:01Yeah, based on all this data,
00:25:03in less than 48 hours,
00:25:04a massive X-class solar flare
00:25:06will erupt.
00:25:06Yeah, east coast
00:25:07won't survive that.
00:25:09Travis, you said
00:25:10there's a 10 to 15 millibar
00:25:11decrease in barometric
00:25:12pressure before.
00:25:15I'm seeing a 25 millibar
00:25:17drop in your readings now.
00:25:18Yeah, I see two
00:25:19in Wurtz, Virginia.
00:25:20Wurtz, where's that?
00:25:22Uh, about 20 miles south,
00:25:24take the 240
00:25:26through Franklin County.
00:25:28How are we gonna stop this?
00:25:30Those earthquakes
00:25:30are gonna be everywhere.
00:25:32We need to go to react
00:25:33and warn them.
00:25:34They won't listen.
00:25:35We can be of more help
00:25:36in the field.
00:25:37Let's head out,
00:25:38see what we can do.
00:25:40Travis, you coming?
00:25:43I think I'm gonna,
00:25:44if that's, I mean,
00:25:45if that's rude, I'm sorry,
00:25:47but I don't do good
00:25:49out in the field,
00:25:49I can be more of a help
00:25:51monitoring here,
00:25:52I have a system,
00:25:53it's just, it works better.
00:25:55I'm gonna stay too.
00:25:56I just, um,
00:25:58I just,
00:25:59I don't wanna go outside
00:26:00right now,
00:26:00and I think if I stay,
00:26:02I can help,
00:26:03and, like I said to you,
00:26:05I, I have a system,
00:26:06it works better.
00:26:12Ah, fine, fine, fine.
00:26:14He can stay.
00:26:15It's,
00:26:16there's a lot to,
00:26:17there's a lot to keep track of,
00:26:18so I guess he can help
00:26:19this once,
00:26:19just this once.
00:26:21Okay,
00:26:21and don't touch my stuff.
00:26:25Okay.
00:26:26All right, let's go.
00:26:28Bye.
00:26:29Go get him, kid.
00:26:32All right, well,
00:26:33welcome aboard, Clay.
00:26:35Have a seat, my friend.
00:26:41Travis,
00:26:43am I reading this right?
00:26:45Yeah, those coordinates
00:26:46are Philadelphia.
00:26:48Yeah.
00:27:02It's an 8.1 magnitude,
00:27:04nearly six seconds,
00:27:05with peak ground acceleration
00:27:06of 1.7 G.
00:27:08Those are Northridge 94 numbers.
00:27:10Why are we finding out
00:27:11about this after the fact?
00:27:13The Ramapo Fault
00:27:13is closest to the epicenter,
00:27:15but it's still 80 miles
00:27:16south of the city.
00:27:17Fine.
00:27:19This is great.
00:27:21This is perfect.
00:27:22It is?
00:27:23Yes,
00:27:24we're going to Philadelphia.
00:27:25We are?
00:27:30There are multiple
00:27:31weather anomalies in Philly.
00:27:33We need to see them firsthand.
00:27:34Pull over.
00:27:35There's no way
00:27:36this was caused
00:27:36by an earthquake.
00:27:49You think a hurricane
00:27:50did this?
00:27:51No, the trees are intact.
00:27:53It can't be the wind.
00:27:54So you're saying
00:27:55the gravitational pull thing,
00:27:57that's what did this?
00:27:59Whoa, Molly, hold it.
00:28:00Hey, wait, wait, wait, wait,
00:28:01wait a minute.
00:28:02The gravitational pull is,
00:28:03is gone.
00:28:04The train's upright.
00:28:05It's not floating.
00:28:06Molly, it can still fall over.
00:28:08Ow!
00:28:08What was that?
00:28:09I don't know.
00:28:14Look.
00:28:15What is it?
00:28:16Look at that.
00:28:21What?
00:28:22What is it?
00:28:26The elevated
00:28:27geomagnetic activity
00:28:28is all over this place.
00:28:37This isn't good.
00:28:38No.
00:28:39No, it certainly isn't.
00:28:41If this is happening
00:28:42out here,
00:28:43then major cities
00:28:45near fault lines
00:28:45all across the mid-Atlantic
00:28:46are in danger.
00:28:48And it could be catastrophic.
00:28:55All right.
00:28:57Mom?
00:28:58Go for mom.
00:29:00A lot of infrasound sensors
00:29:01are detecting 15 hertz waves
00:29:03at 170 decibels.
00:29:06Clay, how are you reading that?
00:29:08Those numbers are from NASA.
00:29:10Yeah, I kind of hacked those.
00:29:11Does that make me a bad person?
00:29:14What does that mean?
00:29:15It means the universe
00:29:16is giving us a tell.
00:29:18It's like a bad poker player
00:29:20at a blackjack table.
00:29:21It's telling us something
00:29:21before something lousy happens.
00:29:23By measuring tectonic plate vibrations,
00:29:25it can predict earthquakes and...
00:29:27Oh, no.
00:29:28Now I'm seeing seismic activity.
00:29:31Philadelphia is lighting up.
00:29:33Mom, you gotta go.
00:29:35Where?
00:29:35Philadelphia.
00:29:38Philadelphia.
00:29:48Here, Linda.
00:29:50Okay.
00:29:50You'll be okay.
00:29:52What happened?
00:29:53What...
00:29:54Oh, no.
00:29:57Where?
00:29:58Philadelphia.
00:29:58There was a major earthquake.
00:29:59It's like the Red Cross
00:30:00wasn't handled here.
00:30:01Come on.
00:30:01We have to go.
00:30:13Man, this is nuts.
00:30:15Oh!
00:30:24Where are you going?
00:30:25Someone needs help!
00:30:26And they'll get it!
00:30:27But not from us.
00:30:29That is not our job.
00:30:30This is!
00:30:31But, David!
00:30:32We need to focus.
00:30:34We'll set up camp over there.
00:30:36The quicker we can get these readings,
00:30:38the quicker we can get back to Wallops Labs
00:30:39and save billions of people.
00:30:42That's the better plan
00:30:43rather than blowing it on one person.
00:30:46Now move!
00:30:51What was that?
00:30:53I don't know.
00:30:54Let's just show the government paladin
00:30:56is the only option.
00:31:05This is crazy.
00:31:07The devastation of the city is...
00:31:10It's horrible.
00:31:13People are going to need help.
00:31:14We need to do something.
00:31:25What was that?
00:31:27Was that lightning?
00:31:28I've never seen anything like that.
00:31:29I think it was an electromagnetic surge.
00:31:31I don't think it's safe to drive.
00:31:33Come on, let's get our stuff
00:31:34and check out the rest of the city on foot.
00:31:37Mr. President,
00:31:38the earthquake in Philadelphia.
00:31:39While extraordinary,
00:31:41it's only the start
00:31:42of what could be a series
00:31:43of similar incidents
00:31:44across the eastern part of the country.
00:31:46Why is that?
00:31:47What happened?
00:31:48It starts with the sun.
00:31:50It continues to launch
00:31:51excessive amounts of material
00:31:52causing large amounts of geostorms.
00:31:55Geostorms?
00:31:56Solar-driven storms
00:31:57that fry the Earth's ionosphere
00:31:58causing everything from earthquakes
00:32:00to gravity loss.
00:32:02Gravity loss?
00:32:03Localized gravitational collapse
00:32:05because the curvature of the planet
00:32:06and the ionosphere are...
00:32:07Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:32:08Where are these storms?
00:32:09At NASA, we have confirmed
00:32:11they're isolated to the east coast,
00:32:13but they're getting bigger.
00:32:14We've got under 24 hours
00:32:16before it completely takes over
00:32:17the entire eastern seaboard.
00:32:18Why am I hearing about this now?
00:32:20Mr. President,
00:32:21we've never seen anything like this before.
00:32:23No one has.
00:32:24We're just now connecting the dots.
00:32:26The information's coming in fast and furious,
00:32:28and we're collecting accurate data
00:32:29to bring to you
00:32:30so you can act swiftly
00:32:31and accurately.
00:32:33Solutions.
00:32:33Long shot.
00:32:35Dr. David Diaz from React.
00:32:36He has what he calls
00:32:38the Paladin Project.
00:32:39It's a series of giant umbrellas
00:32:41that when deployed
00:32:41blocks the sunspots
00:32:43and stops the geostorms.
00:32:45Umbrellas?
00:32:47Titanium umbrellas, sir.
00:32:48That's the best we got?
00:32:50Scientifically,
00:32:51that's the best we got.
00:32:53Okay, how long?
00:32:54Umbrellas are ready to launch.
00:32:55You say go,
00:32:56we can be up in space
00:32:56in less than two hours.
00:32:58Well, let's go
00:32:59and get this done then, kids.
00:33:01Yes, Mr. President.
00:33:08Station inbound.
00:33:09Last week,
00:33:10let's go.
00:33:11Let's go!
00:33:17P-Waves arriving early.
00:33:19That shouldn't happen.
00:33:21Vertical acceleration?
00:33:22Spiking.
00:33:23Straight up.
00:33:24Grab a meter?
00:33:26Fluctuating,
00:33:26but it could be noise.
00:33:29Or it could be
00:33:30the first clean data
00:33:31that we've ever had.
00:33:33Log it in and wrap it up.
00:33:35We need a hit wallop now.
00:33:36Is that Molly Martin's kid?
00:33:41Oh, Fiona's here.
00:33:44You guys come with me.
00:33:46I'll take care of this.
00:33:48Right.
00:33:49Oh, no, let's go a different one.
00:33:50Fine, just be cool, okay?
00:33:52Okay, fine.
00:33:55This is a surprise.
00:33:56Why?
00:33:57We actually do work.
00:33:58The surprise is that you're here.
00:34:01Okay, look, this isn't productive.
00:34:03It's a big city.
00:34:03We'll just go somewhere else.
00:34:04Hey, Dr. Diaz,
00:34:05the body we found
00:34:06is conducting electricity.
00:34:07You need to stay away from anything
00:34:08conducting electricity.
00:34:09She's right.
00:34:10It's usually a source of electricity.
00:34:12It's not on a source of anything.
00:34:13It's its own source.
00:34:15It's creating its own electricity.
00:34:16The excess from electrons,
00:34:18from the sunspots.
00:34:19The current is still underground,
00:34:21but the body is conducting it
00:34:23through the rubble.
00:34:24Wait, what?
00:34:25Energy is being created
00:34:26from the atmosphere
00:34:27and through fissures
00:34:28from the quake.
00:34:31How do you know about this?
00:34:32This is my research,
00:34:33not yours.
00:34:34Excuse me?
00:34:35Your research?
00:34:36I don't think you've done
00:34:37a day of research in your life.
00:34:39That's enough.
00:34:41Can you please just give us a minute?
00:34:42I'm gonna go to the car
00:34:44and find people
00:34:44who actually need my help.
00:34:46Chrissy!
00:34:49The Paladin Project
00:34:50before Molly lost React?
00:34:52It's gonna happen.
00:34:54And I want you there.
00:34:56We are ready to launch.
00:34:57Just waiting to hear
00:34:58from the president.
00:34:59What?
00:35:00You're wasting your time
00:35:01with this family.
00:35:03Join me and the React team, okay?
00:35:05We have the tech,
00:35:06the funding.
00:35:08We're ready to go.
00:35:09We can stop these geostorns
00:35:11with the Paladin Project.
00:35:12Isn't that what you want?
00:35:16I know you love Chrissy,
00:35:18but if she loves you,
00:35:19she knows you'll be happier
00:35:20doing the right thing.
00:35:24Think about it.
00:35:26But not too long.
00:35:28We're collecting data here
00:35:29and then we have to leave
00:35:29the launch site.
00:35:30Two hours.
00:35:34The answer is still no, David.
00:35:37When Molly didn't lose React,
00:35:40who took it from her?
00:35:44Let's go.
00:35:52Mr. President,
00:35:53I'm requesting we make
00:35:54Project Paladin go live.
00:35:56Paladin is a go.
00:35:57Head to Wallops
00:35:58and get started.
00:36:23We need to hit Wallops now.
00:36:24Uh, Rachel?
00:36:27David?
00:36:31Uh, Rachel?
00:37:01What is he?
00:37:08Yolanda, where are you?
00:37:10Downtown Philadelphia.
00:37:12The gravitational poles, and then these cars, they all just started lifting, and then...
00:37:16Are you talking about the earthquakes?
00:37:17I just... we were...
00:37:19Where's Chrissy?
00:37:20I'll track her location.
00:37:22We were talking to David Diaz, and then she walked away and...
00:37:26We can't hear you!
00:37:27We found Chrissy's phone location.
00:37:29You just stay there, we're gonna pick you up.
00:37:32The president gave us clearance to go forward with Paladin.
00:37:35And I'm only gonna ask each of you for one thing.
00:37:39You're best.
00:37:41We just won the coin toss!
00:37:43Okay?
00:37:45Okay!
00:37:46Okay!
00:37:47Okay!
00:37:49All right.
00:37:50Capcom, report.
00:37:52Secure satellite communication and relay established.
00:37:55We can tap Nevada in as well, and we have backups prepared just in case.
00:38:00DPS, are we online yet?
00:38:02We are online.
00:38:04Rachel, keep an eye on the storm shifts.
00:38:06Anything that will interfere with this launch.
00:38:08I'm on it, Dr. Diaz.
00:38:14Rachel, initiate countdown.
00:38:18Fueling operations are progressing nominally.
00:38:21We're showing stable sync pressures across both stages.
00:38:23Temperature ranging circling with distracted marks.
00:38:26Guidance is running.
00:38:27Latest alignment countdown.
00:38:28Stand by.
00:38:29Financial platform looks good.
00:38:31We're showing stable sync pressures across both stages.
00:38:37These numbers...
00:38:38Suck.
00:38:39The Paladin project...
00:38:40Isn't gonna work.
00:38:42Probability-wise, it doesn't look good.
00:38:44But that's our only hope.
00:38:46It has to work.
00:38:47Otherwise, everyone on the East Coast...
00:38:49It...
00:38:50The numbers don't lie.
00:38:52Well...
00:38:52Then what's plan B?
00:38:56Popcorn.
00:38:58Excuse me?
00:38:59Popcorn.
00:39:00I'm gonna make some.
00:39:00You want some?
00:39:01No, no.
00:39:02We need to fix this.
00:39:03Do you want butter on it?
00:39:04Because, I mean, that's all popcorn really is, right?
00:39:06It's a vessel of all that buttering deliciousness.
00:39:08Really good popcorn.
00:39:10Can you focus?
00:39:12Please?
00:39:15Look, we're eight billion ants holding onto a rock.
00:39:18Spitting a thousand miles an hour, slingshotting around the sun.
00:39:20And right now, that rock is getting fried by a solar tantrum big enough to make extinction
00:39:26look efficient.
00:39:27Okay, so sometimes...
00:39:29Sometimes popcorn is the solution.
00:39:35This popcorn's nice and tasty.
00:39:36You won't regret it.
00:39:38I really hope Mom and Dad come up with something soon.
00:39:41Molly!
00:39:42Hey!
00:39:42Daddy, come on.
00:39:43Oh, my God.
00:39:44I'm so sorry.
00:39:45I don't know where she went.
00:39:46She was with me one second, and then she was gone the next.
00:39:48I don't know.
00:39:49We're gonna find her.
00:39:49I'm looking for her.
00:39:51Wait, wait.
00:39:52Oh, my God.
00:39:54Oh, my God.
00:39:55Dad, that's our car.
00:39:57Okay, let's go.
00:39:58Okay, bye.
00:39:58We're gonna go.
00:39:59We're gonna go.
00:39:59She's up there.
00:40:01Chrissy!
00:40:04Chrissy!
00:40:05Chrissy!
00:40:06Chrissy!
00:40:10Chrissy!
00:40:10Hold on, guys.
00:40:11Hold on.
00:40:12My phone says she's here.
00:40:13Yeah, yeah, mine too.
00:40:14Found the car, guys.
00:40:15Twelfth floor.
00:40:16Let's go.
00:40:21The CME data has changed.
00:40:23The wind intensity has increased by 0.3.
00:40:26DPS, on board status.
00:40:30Status!
00:40:31Go for launch.
00:40:32Ten minutes.
00:40:34Ten minutes.
00:40:35Ten minutes to launch.
00:40:37Auto sequence start.
00:40:39Launch command is now yours, Dr. Diaz.
00:40:44Wait, stop.
00:40:46Stand back.
00:40:46Stand back.
00:40:46One wrong move.
00:40:47The car goes over, guys.
00:40:48Okay, okay.
00:40:48We need to balance the car.
00:40:49Or tie it off on something.
00:40:51Tie it.
00:40:51Tie it with wire.
00:40:52Find something.
00:40:53Tables or extension cords, whatever you have.
00:40:56Chrissy!
00:40:56Can you hear me?
00:40:58Chrissy, wake up!
00:40:59Wake up, Chrissy!
00:41:02Hurry up!
00:41:05Chrissy!
00:41:06I found something.
00:41:07Let's go.
00:41:07Let's tie it around here.
00:41:08Let's go wrap it around there.
00:41:11Give me some slack.
00:41:13Give me some slack.
00:41:15Hold it.
00:41:16Hold it.
00:41:17Hold it.
00:41:18Hold on, guys.
00:41:22Chrissy, we're going to get you out of there.
00:41:24Give me some slack.
00:41:27Hold on to it.
00:41:28Hold on to it.
00:41:30Chrissy!
00:41:33Chrissy!
00:41:34Chrissy, wake up!
00:41:35Chrissy!
00:41:35Chrissy!
00:41:37Give it a wake up.
00:41:37Let's go.
00:41:38Let's go.
00:41:39He's got anybody.
00:41:42We're doing the car.
00:41:49We got her.
00:41:50You're okay.
00:41:51You're okay.
00:41:52You're okay.
00:41:53I'm so sorry.
00:41:54I'm so sorry.
00:41:55Let's go.
00:41:55Let's go, guys.
00:41:56Let me help.
00:41:56Come on.
00:41:57The building's going.
00:41:58The building's going.
00:41:59Let's go.
00:42:00Let's go.
00:42:01All personnel.
00:42:02Stand by.
00:42:03Move on.
00:42:03T-minus 10 seconds.
00:42:04All systems functional.
00:42:06Mission go.
00:42:07Initiate.
00:42:07Main ignition start.
00:42:14T-minus 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
00:42:26Yes.
00:42:27Yes.
00:42:29Yes.
00:42:36It's taking off.
00:42:39It might actually work.
00:42:42Mmm.
00:42:43This is good popcorn.
00:42:45Damn straight.
00:42:47Is there any more back there?
00:42:49Popcorn?
00:42:50Yeah.
00:42:51Add a little butter.
00:42:52On it.
00:42:59Paladin has passed the moon belt.
00:43:01Transmit signal is strengthening.
00:43:03Prepare for cell extension.
00:43:05Keep heading alignment.
00:43:07Okay, Paladin 2 and 3.
00:43:10Connect stations.
00:43:12Prepare for supplemental wing lock.
00:43:14Activate.
00:43:18Initiate magnetic dock parameters.
00:43:20Paladin 3, extend at 12.
00:43:2235% extent.
00:43:24Enable cell rigidity.
00:43:27Enable.
00:43:29Sale rigidity established.
00:43:33Sales are launched.
00:43:40We did it.
00:43:41Woo!
00:43:44Great job.
00:43:45Great job.
00:43:51It's time to get the president on the phone.
00:44:04This is Amy.
00:44:07Initial estimates are showing the sales are in place on schedule.
00:44:12Dr. Diaz is on the phone.
00:44:15Dr. Diaz, this is the president.
00:44:18Mr. President, hello?
00:44:32Dr. Diaz, Dr. Diaz, Dr. Diaz.
00:44:44Dr. Diaz.
00:44:53Something must have happened.
00:44:55The umbrellas are offline.
00:44:57What do you mean the umbrellas are offline? That's impossible.
00:44:59Dr. Diaz, the solar flares are too strong.
00:45:01Umbrellas 6 through 14 have been completely destroyed, sir.
00:45:03You're reading it wrong.
00:45:04The Diaz dorm room is not stopping. It's growing in magnitude.
00:45:07What the hell is going on here?
00:45:08The reserve jetties are firing up.
00:45:09Dr. Diaz, are you smoking?
00:45:19The reserve jetties are firing up.
00:45:42That is a report.
00:45:44And this report suggests that the deflections from the umbrellas widen the scope of the geostorm.
00:45:49Widen?
00:45:50Globally.
00:45:51It's moving more aggressively. It's already hit Nevada and...
00:46:01Clay, you're not going to believe what happened in Winnipeg, Jamaica, and...
00:46:05Looks like Vegas.
00:46:07This geostorm, it's not going to just stop at the eastern seaboard.
00:46:11It's just global.
00:46:13Yeah, yeah.
00:46:15That's ball lightning.
00:46:17Right.
00:46:18Ball lightning.
00:46:20No, it's only ever been scientifically caught on camera once.
00:46:24If everyone's seeing this, then...
00:46:26Clay, Clay, it's okay.
00:46:28No, no, no, you don't understand.
00:46:29I need to get a hold of my mom and dad.
00:46:31I need to tell them.
00:46:32Clay, I'm sure they already know.
00:46:41Natasha, the president will be addressing the nation shortly.
00:46:44You have five minutes.
00:46:45You wanted to see me?
00:46:48I'm headed to the Wallops flight facility in five.
00:46:51Dr. Diaz missed his mark, but so did the rest of the scientists of the world.
00:46:55Of course, Mr. President.
00:46:56What is the current status of the geostorms?
00:46:59The geostorm targets are seemingly random.
00:47:01We're trying to figure out how to stop them, but it's hit or miss.
00:47:03From the info that we have, we're concerned that this could go on for years,
00:47:07but our core survival resources, food, shelter, water, will be gone in less than a month.
00:47:13Quicker if the storm accelerates.
00:47:15It's already accelerated.
00:47:17It just depends on how we spend it.
00:47:20Mr. President, what are you planning on saying to the nation?
00:47:24I haven't decided yet.
00:47:27I'll come up with something.
00:47:32Thank you, Mr. President.
00:47:39Natasha.
00:47:42You didn't tell the president about Dr. Diaz and the Iraq team at Wallops.
00:47:46It's been over 45 minutes with no communication.
00:47:49I think we can assume no one survived.
00:47:52I'm headed to Wallops now.
00:47:54Until I can confirm it and you hear from me directly, you know nothing.
00:47:58Understood?
00:48:00Understood.
00:48:01Okay.
00:48:22I knew the Iraq's magnetic sails would fail.
00:48:25Instead of stopping the CMEs, it worked as a bounce board for the flares.
00:48:30So frustrating.
00:48:32David's smarter than that.
00:48:34Obviously, he's not smarter than his ego.
00:48:36When we get there, you'll set him straight, won't you?
00:48:41The geostorm is moving at an accelerated rate.
00:48:43It's global now.
00:48:45What if we can't convince him?
00:48:46Well, then I'll have to kick the living ego out of him.
00:48:49Works for me.
00:48:51My fellow Americans,
00:48:53tonight I speak to you with a heavy heart and an unshakable resolve.
00:48:58We are a nation born of resilience.
00:49:01These past weeks have tested us with earthquakes that split our soil,
00:49:05solar flares that scorched our skies,
00:49:08and storms that froze our cities.
00:49:10These are not isolated acts of nature.
00:49:13They are what scientists are calling geostorms.
00:49:16I will not lie to you.
00:49:18Cloud cover's thick.
00:49:21Geomagnetic currents are penetrating deeper.
00:49:23Radiation is off the charts.
00:49:24Scalvers' telemetry is lacking like a snail through peanut butter.
00:49:28We're going to have to extrapolate the CME from the rest of it.
00:49:32Sunspot region AR-4667.
00:49:36It doubled again.
00:49:38And it's about to fire.
00:49:39The last CME took about 14 hours to reach Earth.
00:49:43If these projections hold,
00:49:45we're going to get hit by another geostorm explosion,
00:49:47nearly twice the size in less than 35 hours.
00:49:50That's enough to destroy the planet.
00:49:54This is not surrender.
00:49:55It's survival.
00:49:59It's unreal.
00:50:01Everything's destroyed.
00:50:04What?
00:50:08What happened to the building?
00:50:10Looks like it collapsed on itself.
00:50:18I don't want you going in there.
00:50:20You'll be more helpful keeping watch down here,
00:50:22especially if we need someone to rescue us.
00:50:25Please.
00:50:27For me.
00:50:31Well, um, we'll stay here.
00:50:33Keep an eye out for David Diaz.
00:50:35Okay.
00:50:37If you sense anything going south, just get out.
00:50:39Unless it's another gravity pull
00:50:41and you need to tie yourself to something locked down.
00:50:43Promise?
00:50:45If you find David, get him in touch with Travis.
00:50:47Travis knows what to do.
00:50:49Okay.
00:50:50Come on.
00:50:56And survival is what Americans do best.
00:50:59It's not working.
00:51:00Network's right here, try it.
00:51:01Use the radio.
00:51:02Can you switch that off?
00:51:04I can't deal with listening to the president right now.
00:51:07Mom?
00:51:08Dad?
00:51:11Chrissy?
00:51:12Yolanda?
00:51:13Is anyone there?
00:51:13Over.
00:51:15When the ground shake, we stand...
00:51:17You need to shut that off.
00:51:19CMU's must have knocked it out when it hit Earth.
00:51:21No, you need...
00:51:22It's too much, okay?
00:51:23It's too noisy.
00:51:24No storm lasts forever.
00:51:25I don't know where the clicker is.
00:51:26I'm trying to find the clicker.
00:51:27No, no.
00:51:28You need to shut it off!
00:51:29I'm trying.
00:51:29I'm trying.
00:51:30I'm trying to shut it down.
00:51:31It's off.
00:51:32I powered it off.
00:51:33Okay?
00:51:34I powered it off.
00:51:35It's off.
00:51:37No.
00:51:39I can't.
00:51:40I'm...
00:51:41I'm sorry, okay?
00:51:42I'm sorry.
00:51:43I'm sorry.
00:51:44I'm sorry.
00:51:45I'm sorry.
00:51:45I'm sorry.
00:51:45Listen.
00:51:46It's okay.
00:51:47It's okay.
00:51:48If you could rename the moon, what would you call it?
00:51:52What?
00:51:53What would you name it?
00:51:55I...
00:51:56I don't know.
00:51:57Whatever comes to your mind.
00:51:58No wrong answers.
00:51:59What would you name it?
00:52:00The sun.
00:52:03Great.
00:52:06Sit down.
00:52:08Sit down.
00:52:16When I see you, I see me.
00:52:20The old version of me.
00:52:22Alone.
00:52:24Head full of static.
00:52:26Always worrying that the world's watching every single twitch.
00:52:30That weight.
00:52:31It will break you.
00:52:35It will break you.
00:52:37I'm sorry, okay?
00:52:38I didn't...
00:52:39Listen, listen.
00:52:40Just listen, okay?
00:52:41Just listen.
00:52:43If I could give my younger self any advice, it would be this.
00:52:52All that overcorrecting, that wasted, wasted fuel, it's...
00:52:58You'll survive.
00:53:01You will survive, and you will wonder why you carried all that weight around all by yourself.
00:53:12But if I don't carry it, then the world, it...
00:53:16The what?
00:53:18The world will what?
00:53:22Once you know the answer to that question,
00:53:29you'll find that peace.
00:53:33All right?
00:53:35You hear me?
00:53:37Good.
00:53:39Want some popcorn?
00:53:43Let's have some popcorn.
00:53:44Yeah.
00:53:45All right.
00:53:51What do you think Chrissy meant when she said he put them in there?
00:53:53What do you mean?
00:53:54She said that to Yolanda.
00:53:55Do you think Yolanda's gonna work for David?
00:53:57Does it matter?
00:53:59Yes.
00:53:59He stole my company from me.
00:54:01Well, she chose us.
00:54:03But...
00:54:03But, but, Molly, stop.
00:54:05Whatever you're thinking, okay?
00:54:07Stop.
00:54:09Yolanda's an adult.
00:54:10She loves Chrissy.
00:54:11She puts up with us.
00:54:12And we are quite a handful.
00:54:14So she's making her choices in life, and guess what?
00:54:16She's here now with us.
00:54:18Help!
00:54:19Hello!
00:54:20Did you hear this?
00:54:20Someone there?
00:54:23Help!
00:54:26The door's jammed!
00:54:28Oh!
00:54:36Molly?
00:54:37What?
00:54:38What are you doing here?
00:54:39Looking for you.
00:54:40Dr. Martin, I'm a huge fan.
00:54:42I've read all your court cases and your books.
00:54:44That's enough.
00:54:45Wait, of course.
00:54:47Molly, this is my husband, Eric.
00:54:48Oh, yeah.
00:54:49Good to meet you.
00:54:50Wow, it's like all of React is back together.
00:54:52All we're missing are your kids.
00:54:54Are they here?
00:54:54Well, I...
00:54:55The team is not back together.
00:54:57She's not a part of React anymore.
00:54:59Molly, really, we need to get out of here now.
00:55:02For once, David's right.
00:55:03Billy's not safe.
00:55:04We gotta go.
00:55:05Let's go.
00:55:06Wait.
00:55:07We have nothing to discuss.
00:55:09I know why the sales didn't work.
00:55:11It's a moot point, okay?
00:55:12You can launch again, but not with the umbrellas.
00:55:15You are not coming back to React.
00:55:17This isn't about me.
00:55:18I have no interest in being a part of React again.
00:55:21Yeah, it doesn't sound like it.
00:55:22This is about saving lives.
00:55:23This is all gonna get so much worse if we don't do something and we're running out of time.
00:55:28Listen to me.
00:55:29We can't stop the next CME.
00:55:31We can dampen its effects.
00:55:32Molly, you are wasting your time.
00:55:34We can do that using bulk metallic glass.
00:55:37It's the same material NASA used in 2001 for Genesis Probe.
00:55:40The Genesis Probe was for collection, not mitigation.
00:55:42It can mitigate the impact by absorbing the energy.
00:55:45It won't leave a trace behind.
00:55:47It won't pollute the atmosphere.
00:55:48You know what?
00:55:48Stay in your lane, okay?
00:55:50This is my problem to figure out.
00:55:57Oh, my God, that building, it looks like it's gonna collapse even more.
00:55:59We have to get down and do something now.
00:56:01Yeah, yeah, you're right.
00:56:02Let's go.
00:56:11Let's just keep going forward.
00:56:12This way.
00:56:13Hey, are you okay?
00:56:16Hey.
00:56:17All right, I just need a second.
00:56:19Okay, just stay right here.
00:56:20I'm gonna check everything out.
00:56:22Okay.
00:56:27Watch your step.
00:56:28You guys, I found another set of stairs.
00:56:31Me first.
00:56:35You feel that?
00:56:36Something's wrong, I feel a little...
00:56:37Yeah.
00:56:38It's a little woozy.
00:56:39It's happening again.
00:56:41Guys, I'm not feeling too good.
00:56:42It's another gravitational pull.
00:56:44I'm feeling kind of lightheaded, too.
00:56:46Hold on to something.
00:56:47Race yourself to the ground.
00:56:49These stairs are good.
00:56:50These stairs.
00:56:53I feel like my feet are lifting off the ground.
00:57:01Hold on to me.
00:57:03Go over there.
00:57:03Go over there.
00:57:04Hold on to something.
00:57:05Do not have any shooting.
00:57:06Hold on tight.
00:57:09Grab a hold of whatever you can.
00:57:10I'm lifting up off the ground.
00:57:12Watch out.
00:57:12Just hold on.
00:57:13Hold on.
00:57:14Wait.
00:57:15Don't move.
00:57:16Hold on.
00:57:18She's lifting up off the ground.
00:57:19Watch out.
00:57:27Hey.
00:57:28Hey.
00:57:32David!
00:57:34David!
00:57:34Where are you going?
00:57:37Over here.
00:57:37I'm so big.
00:57:38Hold on.
00:57:39Hold on.
00:57:40Hold on.
00:57:41Oh, my God!
00:57:44Are you okay?
00:57:45Yeah, I'm good here.
00:57:46Okay.
00:57:47We have to get to them before this whole building collapses.
00:57:52We got you.
00:57:53We got you.
00:57:54Ty, are you okay?
00:57:55Yeah, I'm okay.
00:57:56I think it's stabilizing.
00:57:58Okay.
00:58:06I think it's done.
00:58:07Okay, let's go.
00:58:08Okay.
00:58:15Do you smell that?
00:58:17What is it?
00:58:18Sulfur.
00:58:19It's coming from over there.
00:58:22Where are you going?
00:58:23It could be another clue.
00:58:25Are you crazy?
00:58:26Are you going to walk into the building as we're trying to get out of here?
00:58:28I'll go with you.
00:58:30Take your friend and go find David Diaz and find an exit.
00:58:33I'll go with Molly.
00:58:34Go ahead.
00:58:34Ty, come on.
00:58:36Okay, Rachel, I'm coming.
00:58:38Hold up, Molly.
00:58:43Oh, that stench.
00:58:46It's sulfur, but it's sharp and pungent.
00:58:49Probably a broken sewer line.
00:58:52Sewer gas smells like rotten eggs.
00:58:54This is rotten eggs mixed with burning matches.
00:58:58That's magma.
00:59:00Magma?
00:59:01There's no active volcanoes near here.
00:59:04That's the smell.
00:59:05It's a continental rift.
00:59:07There are basins all over the East Coast.
00:59:09The magma had nowhere to go except for these basins way underground.
00:59:12This surface rupture, it's a result of a deep crack within the Earth's crust.
00:59:18This is a geological event that should take centuries, but it's happening in a matter of days.
00:59:23Why is it blue?
00:59:25Something's happening under there.
00:59:27And all of this geomagnetic energy, it's accelerating whatever that is.
00:59:31So the whole Earth is breaking apart.
00:59:35We have to find the others and get out of here now!
00:59:47What is that?
00:59:49I don't know.
00:59:51It's not good.
00:59:53I'm looking.
00:59:54Take cover!
01:00:08What if I knew everything?
01:00:09Clay would know.
01:00:11Yeah, yeah, probably.
01:00:12We have to find another way.
01:00:14All the doors are blocked off.
01:00:15Why am I not surprised that David just ran away like that?
01:00:18Molly.
01:00:19No, he doesn't think about anybody.
01:00:21Right.
01:00:22For right now, let's just focus on finding Chrissy and Yolanda.
01:00:25You don't think I am?
01:00:27Come on, I'm not like David.
01:00:31Wow.
01:00:32What?
01:00:33I didn't say anything.
01:00:34Sure seems like it.
01:00:35Are you that determined on getting React back or proving that David's nothing without you?
01:00:40He's doing fine proving that all on his own.
01:00:42He failed and now the Earth is destroying itself from the inside.
01:00:46And we're all gonna deal with the effects of that, especially our kids.
01:00:49No argument there.
01:00:50But Molly, look at Clay.
01:00:52He was too terrified to even come with us.
01:00:54And Chrissy, she's very capable.
01:00:57But you treat her like she's ten years old.
01:00:59What are you trying to say?
01:01:01That they're struggling.
01:01:02Yeah, this is hard on everybody.
01:01:04You wanna protect our kids?
01:01:06Be a mom, not a commander.
01:01:08You think I want this life for them?
01:01:10You don't think I'd rather Chrissy with her big heart join the Peace Corps or do something amazing?
01:01:16Or Clay with his big brain cure cancer.
01:01:18They don't have a choice.
01:01:20They were born into a war and they have to fight to have those things later on.
01:01:23We're all gonna die if we don't stop these geostorms.
01:01:26That's your rationale?
01:01:27Risking them because you can't save yourself?
01:01:30Molly, they are not you.
01:01:32Let them be themselves.
01:01:34Why are we fighting about this if not for a future for them?
01:01:37If we make it through this, we need to have a bigger talk.
01:01:41Help!
01:01:47Get it off!
01:01:52That's not gonna move.
01:01:57Yolanda!
01:01:58Over here!
01:01:59I found a way in!
01:02:01Come on, hurry!
01:02:02I can hear them!
01:02:03Molly!
01:02:03Eric!
01:02:06What happened?
01:02:08Are you okay?
01:02:08The roof caved in.
01:02:10Fortunate for your fast exit, huh, David?
01:02:12I was trying to get help!
01:02:14Guys, were all the stairways blocked?
01:02:16Yeah, we just need like a crowbar or something.
01:02:18Are you okay?
01:02:19Fine, okay?
01:02:21Just get me out of here!
01:02:22Mom!
01:02:24Dad!
01:02:24Are you guys there?
01:02:26Dad!
01:02:26Chrissy!
01:02:27Mom!
01:02:27Chrissy!
01:02:30Yolanda.
01:02:32Let me see this.
01:02:33I'm gonna wedge it in here.
01:02:35I'm gonna try to lift about half an inch.
01:02:36It's about all I can do.
01:02:37You have to pull them out.
01:02:38On the count of three.
01:02:39You got it?
01:02:39Yep.
01:02:40One, two, three!
01:02:42Pull!
01:02:43Pull!
01:02:44Pull!
01:02:44Pull!
01:02:45Pull!
01:02:45Pull them out!
01:02:48Pull!
01:02:55We're gonna go over this.
01:02:56This is it.
01:02:57Our only way out.
01:02:58You ready?
01:02:58Start climbing.
01:03:00Go!
01:03:00Let's go!
01:03:05Who's next?
01:03:08Careful.
01:03:09Careful.
01:03:09Let's go.
01:03:10Careful.
01:03:13Anybody else?
01:03:14Anybody else down there?
01:03:17Yell out if you're there!
01:03:20I think that's it.
01:03:22Let's go.
01:03:33Oh, no.
01:03:34Look who's here.
01:03:41Are you okay?
01:03:42Is the team intact?
01:03:43Yes, yes, we're fine.
01:03:45Listen, you should send more rescue crews in to check for more survivors.
01:03:48Yeah.
01:03:49Okay.
01:03:49David.
01:03:51Look, I know.
01:03:52The data was incorrect.
01:03:53But we can get back on track.
01:03:55You need to go back to the president.
01:03:56You need to tell him that we can't give up now.
01:03:58This is too important.
01:03:59Okay?
01:04:00Are you two getting the band back together?
01:04:02What?
01:04:05Molly?
01:04:06No.
01:04:06No.
01:04:08Molly is unhinged, okay?
01:04:10She is not qualified.
01:04:12She's not a team player.
01:04:13She undermines literally everything.
01:04:15The president wants this.
01:04:17Do you want me to convey your reservations or would you like to call them yourself?
01:04:26Molly.
01:04:29Oh, great.
01:04:30Here we go again.
01:04:32It's good to see you.
01:04:34Are you okay?
01:04:34Is the family okay?
01:04:36I came to see if I could help in any way.
01:04:37We didn't expect the whole facility to be in ruins when we got here.
01:04:40The geostorms are growing globally at an uncontrollable rate.
01:04:44There's a deep fissure inside the Wallops facility.
01:04:46It measures miles under the Earth's crust.
01:04:48There's magma coming from continental rifts there.
01:04:51You're positive?
01:04:53Absolutely.
01:04:54And it gave me an idea.
01:04:55The lava veins, they were emitting a strange color.
01:04:57It wasn't orange.
01:04:59It was a bright blue glow and smelled like sulfur.
01:05:01I wasn't sure why at first, but then I realized.
01:05:04Ionized gases.
01:05:05Exactly.
01:05:06So here's my theory.
01:05:08We've always had solar flares.
01:05:09Always.
01:05:10But why are we having this problem now with the geostorms?
01:05:13Because we're in a feedback loop.
01:05:15How?
01:05:17Why now after billions of years?
01:05:19The solar flares, they ionize the atmosphere.
01:05:22Triggering disasters like earthquakes.
01:05:24The earthquakes pump ions back into the geostorms.
01:05:26Repeat.
01:05:27It just keeps feeding itself.
01:05:29We have to break the cycle.
01:05:30What is your solution?
01:05:32Disrupt the ions.
01:05:34But we don't have any tools or resources.
01:05:37We need bulk metallic glass.
01:05:39We launch it into the messosphere right before the next geostorm.
01:05:43The glass will reflect the solar flares.
01:05:45And stopping that feedback loop.
01:05:47We'll need an insane amount of it.
01:05:50Where would we source this?
01:05:53Fusion reactors.
01:05:55Yeah.
01:05:56But where are you getting it from? Amazon?
01:05:59JPL.
01:06:01Does this mean we get Molly back on the React team?
01:06:03No.
01:06:04No.
01:06:06You two have to work this out.
01:06:08I'm here on behalf of the president and he's willing to do whatever it takes to support React, Dr. Diaz
01:06:14and the team.
01:06:15And Molly, you could be part of this.
01:06:23Sorry.
01:06:24I need to think about this.
01:06:26What's going on?
01:06:27What's going on?
01:06:28They want us to work with David.
01:06:29But we gotta speak to Travis first.
01:06:38It's open.
01:06:43Hey, kids.
01:06:45Rough night at the office?
01:06:47Ugh.
01:06:49Remember the movie Grease at the end when the car goes flying through the air?
01:06:53Yeah, it's classic.
01:06:54That's what happened to me.
01:06:56Did you know Sandy was dead the entire movie?
01:06:59Yeah.
01:07:00She drowned at the beginning.
01:07:02Ascended to heaven in a 1948 Ford Super Deluxe convertible.
01:07:06Pretty cool, right?
01:07:08You need to get out more.
01:07:10Molly.
01:07:11Come here.
01:07:16So estimates have the next solar flare peaking at about, what time is it?
01:07:20Three hours.
01:07:21And then one 27 hours after that.
01:07:23So there's less than 30 hours between those big hits.
01:07:26But there's more.
01:07:27The sun is 300,000 times bigger than Earth.
01:07:30So it has a stronger pool of gravity.
01:07:32Yeah, that's why we rotate around it.
01:07:33When two objects are closer, the gravity is stronger.
01:07:36When it's further away, the weaker it gets.
01:07:37Clay, are you saying that the Earth is pulling away from the sun's orbit?
01:07:40No.
01:07:41The Earth's gravity comes from its own mass, not the sun's.
01:07:44But if the Earth is pulling away from the sun, that would mean the Earth is somehow losing its own
01:07:49mass.
01:07:50Am I hearing that correctly?
01:07:52CMEs are what's causing all the electrical storms, solar flares, earthquakes.
01:07:56And it's worse than before.
01:07:58There's been documented proof of ball lightning all over the world.
01:08:01Ball lightning?
01:08:02I told you Claywood now.
01:08:03Wait.
01:08:04You guys saw one in person?
01:08:05That explains the ionized fissure at Wallops.
01:08:08Ionized fissure?
01:08:09Is that a thing now?
01:08:10It might be the thing.
01:08:12Ooh, a disruptor.
01:08:14Exactly.
01:08:15A bulk metallic glass package.
01:08:17It's our best solution.
01:08:18Why?
01:08:19Where do we get metallic glass?
01:08:23Weather satellites?
01:08:24ISS stations?
01:08:26Right.
01:08:27Right.
01:08:28So?
01:08:30A disruptor because BMG powder retains energy-absorbing properties and neutralizes solar flare ions.
01:08:36I like this tea.
01:08:38Not bad, right?
01:08:39Right.
01:08:39And the BMGs protect the structures.
01:08:41It's like Superman with kryptonite or a vibranium shield against...
01:08:45So what you're saying is if we get enough bulk metallic glass, we can effectively stop this geostorm.
01:08:51It can absorb the ions.
01:08:52Yes.
01:08:54Well, how do we physically get it?
01:08:56Getting it's not the problem.
01:08:57It's where to launch it that's more difficult.
01:08:59See, before the storm, there were 15 operational launchpads in the US.
01:09:03And now?
01:09:04With Wallops down three.
01:09:06And you won't establish a remote interlink connection in time for that.
01:09:09Does anybody know any rich folk that aren't in jail?
01:09:12Funny.
01:09:13I mean, I do.
01:09:14I know a guy, but he's in California.
01:09:17California's been hit pretty hard.
01:09:18It's an underground silo designed to withstand a nuclear attack.
01:09:23I only know this because I helped build the molecular dynamics structures.
01:09:26Why would a private citizen need a space shuttle?
01:09:29I didn't ask.
01:09:30I just built it.
01:09:31No.
01:09:31President Carlson instituted martial law in California.
01:09:34You have to be a resident to get into the entire state.
01:09:36We'll figure it out.
01:09:37We're still technically residents there.
01:09:39But just in case, I ran into FEMA director Natasha Nakami.
01:09:43We have full support of President Carlson.
01:09:45David Diaz does.
01:09:46We don't.
01:09:47No, we're fine.
01:09:48Natasha's on our side.
01:09:49And she's seen David's messy handiwork on more than one occasion.
01:09:52David?
01:09:53Why would we even...
01:09:55If we can just...
01:09:56If we can get to California, we would have full access to the facilities.
01:10:00I still have some connections with some military buddies.
01:10:03Can you get a plane?
01:10:05Why is David involved?
01:10:07I'm going.
01:10:08You...
01:10:09You'll need me too.
01:10:10Seriously!
01:10:11Are we working with David Diaz again?
01:10:13Mom, the man took your company away from you.
01:10:16You want to work with him again?
01:10:17I don't get it.
01:10:19Why?
01:10:33Go ahead.
01:10:34Say it.
01:10:37You always said, stand up for what you believe in.
01:10:42Is that a lie?
01:10:44Or out of convenience?
01:10:47Here's what I believe.
01:10:49And it's going to be hard for you to hear.
01:10:53I believe we're going to die if we don't do something.
01:10:57And sometimes when your back's against the wall, you need everyone you can working towards
01:11:01the same goal.
01:11:04I know who David is.
01:11:06I know we can't trust him most of the time, but he's a smart man.
01:11:10And...
01:11:11We need him.
01:11:12Just as much as he needs us.
01:11:18Where are you going?
01:11:20Back.
01:11:21Kay?
01:11:22You justified everything.
01:11:24You are so smart, but you understand nothing.
01:11:26You think your dad and I do this because it's the easiest way?
01:11:30No.
01:11:31It's because right now this is the only way.
01:11:35And if we have to deal with David or some billionaire named Griffin Richards, that's just
01:11:39the price we pay.
01:11:41Life isn't always so morally clear and simple.
01:11:45The only clarity your dad and I have is your safety and survival.
01:11:49That's our guiding light.
01:11:52You need to find yours.
01:12:08Hey, Tony.
01:12:09Thanks for flying us on shore notice.
01:12:11Happy to be of service.
01:12:12So we're good here.
01:12:14I've done this a thousand times.
01:12:15You're in good hands.
01:12:17Now take your seat, please.
01:12:19All right, everyone.
01:12:20Now the FAA is going to start locking down the U.S. airspace in the next several hours
01:12:24with the inclement weather that's coming in.
01:12:27That means buckle up, Travis.
01:12:36We have to get above the storm.
01:12:38It's going to get a little bit bumpy.
01:12:39Hang on, please.
01:12:42Did he say hang on?
01:12:44He did.
01:12:50Hang on.
01:12:51We're entering the geostorm.
01:12:58We have a little bit of chop going on.
01:13:08Hang on.
01:13:09I'll see the storm.
01:13:10I'll get through this.
01:13:12Hang on.
01:13:13I don't want to crash.
01:13:14We're going to be okay.
01:13:16Ruby, breathe.
01:13:19We've got to get past this.
01:13:20Okay.
01:13:21Round to five.
01:13:23And breathe.
01:13:27Three.
01:13:28Four.
01:13:39Now that we're through, enjoy the rest of your flight.
01:13:43You're good?
01:13:43Yeah.
01:13:45Are you?
01:13:45One.
01:13:49A thousand times?
01:13:52Damn.
01:13:59Molly, you have a phone call?
01:14:01Be right back.
01:14:11Thanks
01:14:16This is Molly
01:14:18I ran the numbers
01:14:20The metallic glass package won't work
01:14:22What do you mean it won't work?
01:14:24Your numbers are flawed
01:14:26The geostorm's too big
01:14:28You don't have enough BMGs to dissipate in the clouds
01:14:30I know
01:14:31We just need enough to start a small hole
01:14:33It's a feedback loop
01:14:34It'll take care of itself after that
01:14:36It's just a theory
01:14:37You have no real evidence that any of this will work
01:14:39None
01:14:40Zero
01:14:42You have to stop this back and forth
01:14:44Take all the credit if you want
01:14:45I'm not gonna fight with you
01:14:47I have the means to launch
01:14:48But it's in California and they're under strict martial law
01:14:51You have the power of the president
01:14:53So either get us through the checkpoints
01:14:54And help us save the world
01:14:55Or die
01:14:56A petty little man in your perfectly pressed suit
01:14:59Manicured hands without saving anyone
01:15:00Your choice
01:15:07Everything okay?
01:15:09Yeah
01:15:20Only Californian residents to pass this checkpoint
01:15:23Martial law has been declared in California
01:15:25By order of President Carlson
01:15:35So David Diaz is the devil
01:15:38Regardless if he helps us or not
01:15:40He really used that vacation right about now
01:15:44This reminds me of a
01:15:46Uganda 2013
01:15:48Yes, exactly
01:15:49In like simpler times
01:15:51No they weren't
01:15:52Simpler for us
01:15:53People change
01:15:54And that's okay
01:15:58And?
01:15:59He got you through
01:16:01Well, wonders never cease
01:16:02And he got you a private transport
01:16:06Still don't trust him
01:16:07Devil
01:16:09Definitely the devil
01:16:10Well, still we made him
01:16:14Let's go
01:16:20My guy was surprised to hear from me
01:16:21But he said I'll have the rocket prepped
01:16:23And ready for BMG to live
01:16:25This is the control base
01:16:26They got the silo online
01:16:27Prepared for countdown start
01:16:31We're cutting it close
01:16:32It's 7.29 p.m.
01:16:33The X-93 reaches peak within the hour
01:16:35The payload team is just waiting
01:16:37For the bulk metallic glass to arrive
01:16:38And we can initiate countdown
01:16:41I didn't touch anything
01:16:42What did you do?
01:16:43It's a fail safe
01:16:44I have some redundancies built in
01:16:46I got it
01:16:483, 2, 1
01:16:52Huh
01:16:54So it's sensing a zap coming through
01:16:55So the backups are happening
01:16:56After the reboot
01:16:57We would have been aware of this
01:16:59Had we been sitting here
01:16:5945 minutes ago
01:17:02Guys, this is not good for the launch
01:17:04My NASA software won't be of any use now
01:17:06So we have no idea
01:17:07When the solar flare actually hits peak
01:17:09And can't track the CME eruption
01:17:14We're working blind
01:17:15We need to work the phones
01:17:16We need to get the glass
01:17:17We need to get direct access to NASA
01:17:19We need to go all the way to the president
01:17:26Natasha, I know it's asking a lot
01:17:27But the president has to clear airspace
01:17:29For the transport
01:17:30It is urgent
01:17:32Okay, okay
01:17:32Tell director Landsmark
01:17:33This is a direct order
01:17:34From President Carlson
01:17:35Yes, NASA will fully be compensated
01:17:37Oh, come on
01:17:39No, you don't have to put me through
01:17:40To another department, alright
01:17:41Noah can just send over the data
01:17:43So I can crunch the mass estimate numbers
01:17:44On my end
01:17:46David, where are we?
01:17:47Clearing airspace now
01:17:4930 minutes
01:17:50That's a tight window
01:17:52No, I appreciate it
01:17:53Thank you
01:17:54Both metallic glass being loaded in 15
01:17:56About two hours till touchdown
01:17:58Let's get ready
01:18:09The glass package is 15 minutes out
01:18:11What was that?
01:18:12We lost bay door control of the silo
01:18:14I can try and override
01:18:15The signal's dead
01:18:16The lightning strike must have taken out the antenna
01:18:19The Falcon won't launch until we get that back
01:18:21Where is it?
01:18:22Where's the antenna?
01:18:23North exit, top of the gantry
01:18:24Takes two
01:18:25One to hold the cover open
01:18:26The other to reconnect it
01:18:27Got it
01:18:27Dad, I'll go with you
01:18:28Okay, let's go
01:18:30Okay, we'll be right back
01:18:31Yeah, okay?
01:18:33Come on
01:18:44Does it ever get any easier?
01:18:46Nope
01:18:51We need to get back inside
01:18:52Before the next round of lightning
01:18:54Right behind you
01:18:55Yeah, I know
01:18:57Okay
01:18:59Grab the connector
01:19:00Reconnect it
01:19:01All right, hold on, hold on
01:19:02I'll hold the cover
01:19:02All right
01:19:05You gotta share it lower
01:19:06I know, I'm gonna share it
01:19:07I know what I'm doing
01:19:08I need to do it simultaneously
01:19:11All right
01:19:12Don't switch anything yet
01:19:13Hold on
01:19:13Okay, I'm not
01:19:15All right, hold on
01:19:16You almost got it
01:19:17All right
01:19:17I got it
01:19:18No, I got it
01:19:18Ready?
01:19:19Yep
01:19:20One
01:19:20Two
01:19:21Three
01:19:25Let's work it
01:19:26Let's go
01:19:27Both antennas online
01:19:28There's a heavy storm front
01:19:30Moving very fast in our direction
01:19:31I'm gonna circle around
01:19:32Stand by
01:19:33We have to launch
01:19:36There's no way through
01:19:36I'm gonna have to land
01:19:38I'm losing control
01:19:39I can't fight the storm
01:19:49That was our only shot
01:19:51There's no more BMG
01:19:52That was everything out there
01:19:54That's it
01:19:54Out there
01:19:55I know this, Clay
01:19:57Well, what do you got?
01:19:57It's the satellites
01:19:58The weather ones
01:19:59The GPS
01:20:00The military
01:20:01Some of them have BMG powder
01:20:02On them, right?
01:20:03You know, for backup fixes
01:20:04Redundancies
01:20:05Yeah, and most of them
01:20:06Have at least 10 to 50 liters each
01:20:08Can you get any of them on remote?
01:20:09You should probably limit
01:20:10To magnetic confinement pads
01:20:11That's the most reliable
01:20:12Good idea
01:20:12You'll also be dealing
01:20:13With weather and
01:20:14Military
01:20:15Right
01:20:15Yeah
01:20:16How many?
01:20:17Uh, 500
01:20:18Maybe even 1,000
01:20:19That's great
01:20:20Yeah, but 10 will do
01:20:21If we just strategically place them
01:20:22I'll call David
01:20:23Yolanda, get Natasha
01:20:25Yep
01:20:27I'll call NASA
01:20:28A few others
01:20:29If we can coordinate
01:20:30A signal for launch
01:20:31Uh, multiple tanks
01:20:33To release BMGs
01:20:34All over the entire globe
01:20:35At the exact same time
01:20:36Yes, brilliant
01:20:36Brilliant, brilliant
01:20:37Natasha
01:20:37This is Dr. Yolanda Lee
01:20:42I've got a lock on GO-16
01:20:43It's pinging back
01:20:44From geostationary orbit
01:20:45At 35,800 kilometers
01:20:48Pull up the command interface
01:20:49Noah uses CCSDS protocols
01:20:52Should be able to spoof
01:20:53An admin handshake
01:20:54We route through
01:20:55Their ground station
01:20:56And wallops
01:20:56X-37B's comms link
01:20:58Is encrypted end-to-end
01:20:59NSA grade AES-256
01:21:01Start by spoofing
01:21:02Their uplink frequency
01:21:03They're using S-band
01:21:04Same as GPS
01:21:06Frequency match
01:21:07Sending handshake requests
01:21:09Injecting fake credentials
01:21:11Handshake initiated
01:21:12Wait
01:21:13They're running
01:21:14MILSTD 1553 bus architecture
01:21:16That means that manual overrides
01:21:18Are possible
01:21:19But they're buried deep
01:21:19In the subsystems
01:21:20Hey, this is Travis Hayes
01:21:21Focus on the payload bay
01:21:23Pods magnetic confinement
01:21:24Should show up
01:21:25Under experimental systems
01:21:27I query the manifest
01:21:28Running decryption algorithm
01:21:30God, this is slow
01:21:31Come on
01:21:31You can tell me
01:21:32Hurry up
01:21:33The solar flare ETA
01:21:34Is less than one minute
01:21:35And the apocalypse won't wait
01:21:37Let me
01:21:38Got it
01:21:39Thanks, Dr. Hayes
01:21:39We need to release the BMG
01:21:40Everybody ready
01:21:41In 10
01:21:439
01:21:448
01:21:447
01:21:466
01:21:475
01:21:484
01:21:503
01:21:502
01:21:521
01:21:522
01:22:18Okay, it worked
01:22:40We did it.
01:22:42Again.
01:22:55I like you guys, make a good tea.
01:22:59Got a place I can park my RV?
01:23:24Oh, hey, you know, uh, Natasha keeps calling from FEMA.
01:23:27Yeah, she wants me to meet with the president.
01:23:30Yeah, you should go.
01:23:31I don't know, but it got me thinking.
01:23:35About what?
01:23:37The friends I keep, people I want to associate with.
01:23:41Yeah, but it's our job.
01:23:43Well, we've done our job.
01:23:46You're right, we have.
01:23:50Hey, Mom, Yolanda and I were wondering if...
01:23:53Dad, where are you going?
01:23:56Well, uh, your mom and I have been just discussing...
01:24:01Are you serious?
01:24:03You can figure out how to save the world,
01:24:04but you can't figure out how to save your marriage?
01:24:06Honey.
01:24:07Unbelievable.
01:24:11I'll talk to her.
01:24:12Wait a second.
01:24:15You're an amazing mother.
01:24:16Father, I was too hard on you earlier.
01:24:20You're an incredible father.
01:24:40What can I do?
01:24:59Oh, no.
01:25:11Oh, no.
01:25:40Oh, no.
01:26:10Oh, no.
01:26:40Oh, no.
01:27:10Oh, no.
01:27:40Oh, no.
01:28:10Oh, no.
01:28:11Oh, no.
01:28:11Oh, no.
01:28:12Oh, no.
01:28:18Oh, no.
