1
00:00:45,540 --> 00:00:48,100
14, 15...

2
00:00:48,260 --> 00:00:51,013
16, prime...

3
00:00:51,180 --> 00:00:53,375
18, prime...

4
00:00:54,020 --> 00:00:55,453
20...

5
00:00:56,020 --> 00:00:57,533
21...

6
00:00:57,700 --> 00:00:59,053
22, prime...

7
00:00:59,220 --> 00:01:00,556
West Virginia
Collegiate Institute

8
00:01:00,580 --> 00:01:03,219
is the best school for
Negros in the state.

9
00:01:03,380 --> 00:01:05,655
It's the only school
past the eighth grade

10
00:01:05,740 --> 00:01:06,740
anywhere near here.

11
00:01:07,420 --> 00:01:08,853
Isosceles.

12
00:01:09,580 --> 00:01:10,933
Scalene.

13
00:01:11,100 --> 00:01:12,692
Equilateral.

14
00:01:13,540 --> 00:01:14,768
Rhombus.

15
00:01:14,940 --> 00:01:16,737
Trapezoid.

16
00:01:16,900 --> 00:01:18,891
Katherine's in the sixth grade.

17
00:01:19,060 --> 00:01:20,116
They want to
take her early.

18
00:01:20,140 --> 00:01:21,778
Tetrahedron.

19
00:01:22,980 --> 00:01:24,618
Dodecahedron.

20
00:01:24,780 --> 00:01:26,476
They're offering
a full scholarship.

21
00:01:26,500 --> 00:01:27,979
All you have to do
is get there.

22
00:01:29,740 --> 00:01:30,889
Ms. Coleman...

23
00:01:31,620 --> 00:01:34,771
why don't you solve
the equation on the board?

24
00:01:41,660 --> 00:01:43,252
We took up a collection

25
00:01:43,340 --> 00:01:44,739
amongst the teachers and such.

26
00:01:44,900 --> 00:01:45,900
It's not a lot...

27
00:01:45,980 --> 00:01:48,175
but it's enough
to help get you settled in.

28
00:01:49,180 --> 00:01:51,569
That's more than kind,
Ms. Sumner.

29
00:02:03,260 --> 00:02:04,836
If the product of two terms

30
00:02:04,860 --> 00:02:06,930
is zero then common sense says

31
00:02:07,060 --> 00:02:10,177
at least one of the two terms
has to be zero to start with.

32
00:02:10,340 --> 00:02:13,252
So if you move all the
terms over to one side,

33
00:02:13,460 --> 00:02:15,451
you can put the quadratics
into a form

34
00:02:15,540 --> 00:02:16,768
that can be factored...

35
00:02:16,940 --> 00:02:18,532
allowing that side
of the equation

36
00:02:18,620 --> 00:02:19,620
to equal zero.

37
00:02:20,500 --> 00:02:21,916
Once you've done that,
it's pretty straightforward

38
00:02:21,940 --> 00:02:22,940
from there.

39
00:02:26,340 --> 00:02:27,980
In all my years
of teaching...

40
00:02:28,620 --> 00:02:31,453
I've never seen a mind like
the one your daughter has.

41
00:02:32,460 --> 00:02:33,460
Katherine!

42
00:02:33,540 --> 00:02:35,292
Hurry on now, love.

43
00:02:35,860 --> 00:02:37,339
You have to go.

44
00:02:38,140 --> 00:02:39,812
Let Mama tuck you in.

45
00:02:46,140 --> 00:02:48,654
You have to see
what she becomes.

46
00:03:14,820 --> 00:03:16,378
Okay,
try to turn it over now.

47
00:03:17,860 --> 00:03:19,009
Katherine?

48
00:03:19,580 --> 00:03:20,854
Mary!

49
00:03:21,340 --> 00:03:22,340
Somebody!

50
00:03:22,460 --> 00:03:23,460
Katherine!

51
00:03:23,580 --> 00:03:26,014
Quit staring off into space
and turn the damn car over.

52
00:03:26,180 --> 00:03:27,329
I got it.

53
00:03:29,060 --> 00:03:30,209
I'm not deaf.

54
00:03:30,380 --> 00:03:31,380
I wonder sometimes.

55
00:03:32,940 --> 00:03:33,940
Here it goes.

56
00:03:36,780 --> 00:03:38,850
Yeah,
it's the starter.

57
00:03:39,020 --> 00:03:41,853
That is definitely the starter.

58
00:03:42,020 --> 00:03:43,851
This starter is starting
to make us late.

59
00:03:44,020 --> 00:03:45,460
We are all gonna
end up unemployed...

60
00:03:45,540 --> 00:03:47,929
riding around in this pile
of junk to work every day.

61
00:03:48,140 --> 00:03:49,858
You're welcome
to walk the 16 miles.

62
00:03:50,060 --> 00:03:52,051
Or sit in the back of the bus.

63
00:03:53,260 --> 00:03:54,852
I won't do neither.

64
00:03:55,540 --> 00:03:56,734
I'll hitchhike.

65
00:04:01,060 --> 00:04:02,413
Girls.

66
00:04:08,300 --> 00:04:09,653
No crime in a
broken-down car.

67
00:04:10,340 --> 00:04:12,058
No crime being Negro neither.

68
00:04:12,220 --> 00:04:13,369
Button it up, Mary.

69
00:04:14,060 --> 00:04:16,449
Nobody wants to go to
jail behind your mouth.

70
00:04:16,620 --> 00:04:18,140
I'll do my best, sugar.

71
00:04:30,900 --> 00:04:33,289
Not a great place for three of
y'all be having car trouble.

72
00:04:33,940 --> 00:04:36,500
We didn't pick the place,
Officer. It picked us.

73
00:04:36,660 --> 00:04:38,173
You being disrespectful?

74
00:04:38,340 --> 00:04:39,739
No, sir.

75
00:04:40,260 --> 00:04:41,488
You have
identification on you?

76
00:04:41,660 --> 00:04:43,139
Yes, sir.
Yes, sir.

77
00:04:45,140 --> 00:04:47,176
We're just on our way
to work...

78
00:04:47,340 --> 00:04:48,409
at Langley.

79
00:04:49,460 --> 00:04:50,939
NASA, sir.

80
00:04:51,100 --> 00:04:52,613
We do a great deal
of the calculating.

81
00:04:52,780 --> 00:04:54,452
Getting our rockets
into space.

82
00:04:54,660 --> 00:04:56,139
All three of you?
Yes, sir.

83
00:04:56,300 --> 00:04:57,300
Yes, Officer.

84
00:04:58,780 --> 00:04:59,780
NASA.

85
00:04:59,940 --> 00:05:01,134
Now that's something.

86
00:05:02,100 --> 00:05:04,534
I had no idea
they hired...

87
00:05:04,700 --> 00:05:08,295
There are quite a few women
working in the space program.

88
00:05:16,980 --> 00:05:18,971
Damn Russians are
watching us right now.

89
00:05:19,700 --> 00:05:20,974
Sputniks.

90
00:05:22,340 --> 00:05:24,137
You girls ever
meet those astronauts?

91
00:05:24,300 --> 00:05:25,699
Mercury Seven?

92
00:05:25,900 --> 00:05:27,299
Absolutely.

93
00:05:27,660 --> 00:05:31,858
Uh, yes, sir. We work with
those gentlemen all the time.

94
00:05:31,980 --> 00:05:34,210
Those boys are the best
we got. I'm sure of that.

95
00:05:34,380 --> 00:05:35,415
Yeah.
Yeah.

96
00:05:35,540 --> 00:05:37,276
We gotta get a man up there
before the commies do.

97
00:05:37,300 --> 00:05:38,300
Yes.
Absolutely.

98
00:05:38,380 --> 00:05:39,836
Whole damn country's
counting on them.

99
00:05:39,860 --> 00:05:40,975
That's for certain.

100
00:05:41,140 --> 00:05:42,698
Hard being of service
broken down

101
00:05:42,820 --> 00:05:44,538
on the side
of the road, though.

102
00:05:44,820 --> 00:05:46,412
Right, right.

103
00:05:46,580 --> 00:05:48,252
Well, do y'all need a tow
or something?

104
00:05:48,420 --> 00:05:50,020
No, thank you, Officer.
I think I got it.

105
00:05:50,180 --> 00:05:51,249
Just give me my...

106
00:05:51,420 --> 00:05:54,696
Just need to bypass
the starter.

107
00:05:57,100 --> 00:05:59,056
She's good at this stuff.

108
00:05:59,660 --> 00:06:01,810
Whoo! Attagirl.

109
00:06:02,940 --> 00:06:03,940
We're all set.

110
00:06:04,100 --> 00:06:06,489
Well, hell, least I can do
is give y'all an escort.

111
00:06:06,660 --> 00:06:08,218
I imagine you're
running late to work.

112
00:06:08,380 --> 00:06:10,052
No, sir. We wouldn't
wanna bother you.

113
00:06:10,220 --> 00:06:11,500
That would be
wonderful, Officer.

114
00:06:12,780 --> 00:06:14,054
Thank you so much, sir.

115
00:06:14,140 --> 00:06:15,140
Follow me.

116
00:06:15,220 --> 00:06:16,220
I'm driving.

117
00:06:16,300 --> 00:06:18,076
Hurry up, Dorothy,
before he changes his mind.

118
00:06:18,100 --> 00:06:20,250
- We're coming.
- Hold your horses.

119
00:06:26,940 --> 00:06:28,156
Yes!
Whoa, slow down, Mary!

120
00:06:28,180 --> 00:06:29,659
Mary, slow down!
You're too close!

121
00:06:29,740 --> 00:06:30,876
Be quiet.
He said to follow him.

122
00:06:30,900 --> 00:06:32,094
He didn't mean
up his behind!

123
00:06:35,380 --> 00:06:37,371
Dear Lord, I don't even
know where to begin!

124
00:06:37,540 --> 00:06:38,893
Oh, I'll tell you
where to begin.

125
00:06:39,100 --> 00:06:41,694
Three Negro women are chasing
a white police officer

126
00:06:41,860 --> 00:06:43,612
down the highway
in Hampton, Virginia...

127
00:06:43,780 --> 00:06:45,611
1961.

128
00:06:45,780 --> 00:06:49,614
Ladies, that there
is a God-ordained miracle.

129
00:06:50,820 --> 00:06:53,732
And, tomorrow,
I'm riding the bus.

130
00:06:58,100 --> 00:06:59,818
I'm moving over

131
00:07:04,260 --> 00:07:06,569
I'm on a sidewalk

132
00:07:06,660 --> 00:07:08,491
I'm going over

133
00:07:15,460 --> 00:07:17,974
Lift off
is good. Trajectory is stable.

134
00:07:19,140 --> 00:07:20,255
Show me.

135
00:07:21,300 --> 00:07:22,574
No, exactly.

136
00:07:22,740 --> 00:07:25,015
40.349110 degrees North.

137
00:07:29,980 --> 00:07:32,414
Ascent angle 46. 56.

138
00:07:32,940 --> 00:07:35,579
Approaching
7,400 miles per hour.

139
00:07:37,180 --> 00:07:38,613
118 seconds.

140
00:07:41,460 --> 00:07:43,132
Boosters have disengaged.

141
00:07:48,260 --> 00:07:49,659
Second stage success.

142
00:07:52,300 --> 00:07:54,460
Korabl-Sputnik 4 is orbital.

143
00:07:56,340 --> 00:07:58,490
Orbital entry is established.

144
00:07:58,660 --> 00:08:00,252
Russian orbital entry
is established.

145
00:08:02,660 --> 00:08:03,854
Jim Webb.

146
00:08:05,140 --> 00:08:06,619
Yes, Mr. President.

147
00:08:07,300 --> 00:08:08,972
We certainly are, sir.

148
00:08:10,220 --> 00:08:11,972
Uh, it looks like
they've achieved

149
00:08:12,060 --> 00:08:13,413
at least one orbit, maybe two.

150
00:08:15,620 --> 00:08:18,214
Chernushka is ready
to go again.

151
00:08:18,380 --> 00:08:22,851
So is our comrade, Ivan,
a brave space traveler.

152
00:08:23,020 --> 00:08:25,659
We have proven life can
be sustained in space.

153
00:08:25,820 --> 00:08:27,890
Now we will be first
to send a human.

154
00:08:28,060 --> 00:08:31,052
A damn dog
and a damn mannequin.

155
00:08:33,500 --> 00:08:38,335
And then, a 1.6 megaton RDS-37
thermonuclear warhead...

156
00:08:38,980 --> 00:08:41,210
drops down in the middle
of Des Moines.

157
00:08:41,380 --> 00:08:42,780
Well, that's
a pretty big jump, sir.

158
00:08:42,860 --> 00:08:43,860
What?

159
00:08:43,940 --> 00:08:46,170
Just that...
Who the hell is he?

160
00:08:46,340 --> 00:08:48,376
Paul Stafford,
our lead engineer, Mr. Webb.

161
00:08:48,540 --> 00:08:49,740
I think what
he meant to say...

162
00:08:49,940 --> 00:08:52,300
is that speculation, at least
on our side of the equation...

163
00:08:52,380 --> 00:08:54,371
by definition can be...

164
00:08:54,540 --> 00:08:56,178
just a little dangerous.

165
00:08:56,340 --> 00:08:57,375
Dangerous?

166
00:08:57,540 --> 00:09:00,008
You know what's dangerous,
Mr. Stafford?

167
00:09:00,180 --> 00:09:02,216
Inaction and indecision.

168
00:09:02,860 --> 00:09:05,010
The Russians
have a spy satellite

169
00:09:05,100 --> 00:09:06,100
lapping the planet,

170
00:09:06,260 --> 00:09:08,330
taking pictures
of God knows what!

171
00:09:09,540 --> 00:09:11,849
The President is demanding
an immediate response.

172
00:09:12,020 --> 00:09:13,580
No more delay.
Alan Shepard, John Glenn,

173
00:09:13,700 --> 00:09:14,836
your uncle Bob,
it doesn't matter.

174
00:09:14,860 --> 00:09:15,929
Get us up there, Harrison.

175
00:09:16,100 --> 00:09:18,295
We can't justify
a space program

176
00:09:18,460 --> 00:09:20,735
that doesn't put
anything in space.

177
00:09:22,700 --> 00:09:24,531
How'd that feel
in there, Paul?

178
00:09:24,700 --> 00:09:26,691
You think you enlightened
the administrator?

179
00:09:27,620 --> 00:09:28,620
Hmm?

180
00:09:28,860 --> 00:09:30,930
No, he didn't look
enlightened to me.

181
00:09:31,380 --> 00:09:33,052
He look enlightened to you, Sam?

182
00:09:33,220 --> 00:09:34,289
Not particularly.

183
00:09:34,460 --> 00:09:35,529
And just so you know,

184
00:09:35,620 --> 00:09:37,196
he's not wrong about
what he said in there.

185
00:09:37,220 --> 00:09:38,619
You know that, right?

186
00:09:38,820 --> 00:09:40,492
Because now that
they can get up there,

187
00:09:40,580 --> 00:09:41,729
a bomb will follow.

188
00:09:42,460 --> 00:09:44,735
It's what happens
to all our good ideas.

189
00:09:45,220 --> 00:09:47,131
I imagine theirs too.
Where's...

190
00:09:47,580 --> 00:09:48,774
Where's the machine?

191
00:09:48,940 --> 00:09:49,940
Any day now,
Mr. Harrison.

192
00:09:50,420 --> 00:09:52,217
Any day now.
Yes, sir.

193
00:09:52,420 --> 00:09:54,729
What's it called?
The initials.

194
00:09:54,900 --> 00:09:56,094
The IBM.

195
00:09:56,300 --> 00:09:57,779
International Business Machines.

196
00:09:57,940 --> 00:10:00,613
Space is a business.

197
00:10:00,820 --> 00:10:02,617
I need a mathematician.

198
00:10:02,780 --> 00:10:04,060
I'll put in
another request, sir.

199
00:10:04,100 --> 00:10:05,340
"Another request."
Jesus Christ.

200
00:10:05,500 --> 00:10:07,616
We don't have a single person
in this entire building

201
00:10:07,780 --> 00:10:10,089
that can handle
analytic geometry?

202
00:10:10,260 --> 00:10:11,300
That's what
I've been told.

203
00:10:11,420 --> 00:10:12,556
Tell me something else, Ruth...

204
00:10:12,580 --> 00:10:14,013
like we're gonna find
such a person

205
00:10:14,180 --> 00:10:15,579
before the Russians
plant a flag

206
00:10:15,660 --> 00:10:16,660
on the damn moon.

207
00:10:26,820 --> 00:10:27,820
A real good time.

208
00:10:27,980 --> 00:10:29,060
All right, Gloria.

209
00:10:29,100 --> 00:10:30,740
You'll be with engineering,
building four.

210
00:10:32,820 --> 00:10:33,935
Ladies, ladies.

211
00:10:34,100 --> 00:10:35,636
If you're tardy,
you don't get an assignment.

212
00:10:35,660 --> 00:10:36,756
If you don't get
an assignment,

213
00:10:36,780 --> 00:10:37,849
you don't have a job.

214
00:10:39,140 --> 00:10:40,209
Eleanor.

215
00:10:40,300 --> 00:10:41,972
Data Reduction, building 202.

216
00:10:42,180 --> 00:10:43,295
Data Reduction?

217
00:10:43,460 --> 00:10:45,018
You're welcome
to join the charmers

218
00:10:45,140 --> 00:10:46,653
in Magnetoplasma Dynamics.

219
00:10:46,820 --> 00:10:47,969
Oh, no, ma'am.

220
00:10:48,180 --> 00:10:50,535
Thank you.
Data Reduction is just fine.

221
00:10:50,700 --> 00:10:52,213
Mm-hmm.

222
00:10:53,300 --> 00:10:54,619
Mary.
Present.

223
00:10:54,780 --> 00:10:57,214
The Mercury Seven prototype
has arrived for testing.

224
00:10:57,380 --> 00:10:59,336
Mr. Zielinski's
requesting you

225
00:11:00,220 --> 00:11:01,335
for permanent assignment.

226
00:11:01,500 --> 00:11:02,819
Are you serious?

227
00:11:02,980 --> 00:11:03,980
Get moving.

228
00:11:06,060 --> 00:11:08,176
Ooh, thank you, Jesus.

229
00:11:08,340 --> 00:11:09,455
Thank you, Jesus!

230
00:11:09,860 --> 00:11:12,055
Oh, thank you. Mary, Mary.
Keep it inside.

231
00:11:12,980 --> 00:11:14,572
Okay. I'm sorry, Dor.

232
00:11:16,980 --> 00:11:18,333
All right, Ms. Late.

233
00:11:18,500 --> 00:11:20,536
You will also be supporting
the east group.

234
00:11:21,900 --> 00:11:23,379
Mrs. Mitchell.

235
00:11:23,540 --> 00:11:25,496
We're on double-time
this morning, girls.

236
00:11:25,660 --> 00:11:27,969
I need these calculations
before lunch.

237
00:11:28,660 --> 00:11:31,413
Space Task Group
needs a computer, ASAP.

238
00:11:31,860 --> 00:11:34,169
Someone with a handle
on analytic geometry.

239
00:11:34,940 --> 00:11:37,170
We can't fill that position
out of the east group.

240
00:11:37,340 --> 00:11:38,489
Permanent or temp?

241
00:11:38,660 --> 00:11:41,015
Everything's temporary, Dorothy.

242
00:11:41,180 --> 00:11:42,215
You have someone?

243
00:11:42,380 --> 00:11:43,574
Yes, ma'am.

244
00:11:43,780 --> 00:11:45,691
Katherine's
the gal for that.

245
00:11:45,860 --> 00:11:48,010
She can handle any numbers
you put in front of her.

246
00:11:48,180 --> 00:11:49,499
I'll check her credentials.

247
00:11:51,860 --> 00:11:54,010
Didn't think I'd come
all the way down here.

248
00:11:54,180 --> 00:11:55,898
Here. Finish passing
those out.

249
00:11:56,060 --> 00:11:57,060
Yes, ma'am.

250
00:12:02,100 --> 00:12:03,658
Mrs. Mitchell.

251
00:12:03,820 --> 00:12:04,820
If I could...

252
00:12:06,380 --> 00:12:08,769
My application
for supervisor, ma'am.

253
00:12:08,940 --> 00:12:10,716
Was just wondering if they're
still considering me

254
00:12:10,740 --> 00:12:12,093
for that position.

255
00:12:12,260 --> 00:12:13,329
Yes.

256
00:12:13,500 --> 00:12:15,570
Well, the official
word is no.

257
00:12:16,180 --> 00:12:18,820
They're not assigning a permanent
supervisor for the colored group.

258
00:12:19,620 --> 00:12:20,939
May I ask why?

259
00:12:21,100 --> 00:12:22,579
I don't know why.

260
00:12:22,780 --> 00:12:24,259
I didn't ask why.

261
00:12:24,420 --> 00:12:25,978
We need a supervisor, ma'am.

262
00:12:26,140 --> 00:12:28,131
We haven't had one
since Miss Jansen got sick.

263
00:12:28,300 --> 00:12:29,653
It's been almost a year.

264
00:12:29,820 --> 00:12:31,412
Things are working
just fine as is.

265
00:12:31,620 --> 00:12:34,373
I'm doing the work
of a supervisor.

266
00:12:34,700 --> 00:12:36,895
Well, that's NASA for you.

267
00:12:37,660 --> 00:12:40,379
Fast with rocket ships,
slow with advancement.

268
00:12:40,980 --> 00:12:43,210
Get those trajectory
calcs worked out.

269
00:12:43,420 --> 00:12:45,012
We need them
for the Redstone test.

270
00:13:18,140 --> 00:13:20,893
Mach one tunnel test.
T-minus one minute.

271
00:13:33,580 --> 00:13:35,536
No shoe is worth your life.

272
00:13:35,700 --> 00:13:36,849
One moment.

273
00:13:37,740 --> 00:13:39,935
T-minus 10, 9...

274
00:13:40,100 --> 00:13:41,374
8...

275
00:13:41,460 --> 00:13:42,460
7...

276
00:13:42,500 --> 00:13:45,333
6, 5, 4...

277
00:14:11,820 --> 00:14:13,014
Shut it down.

278
00:14:19,180 --> 00:14:23,093
If we alter the exterior
from smooth to corrugated...

279
00:14:23,260 --> 00:14:25,854
the capsule might have
more stability.

280
00:14:26,020 --> 00:14:29,296
But the friction,
it is under during re-entry...

281
00:14:29,460 --> 00:14:32,657
Most shield erosion occurs

282
00:14:32,820 --> 00:14:35,732
on the posterior side
abutting the retro-boosters.

283
00:14:36,700 --> 00:14:37,894
Conclusion?

284
00:14:40,700 --> 00:14:42,418
The area closest to the boosters

285
00:14:42,500 --> 00:14:43,853
is closest to the heat.

286
00:14:44,740 --> 00:14:46,970
Coupled with rising
temperature on re-entry...

287
00:14:47,140 --> 00:14:48,732
the contact softens.

288
00:14:49,900 --> 00:14:52,016
We could consider
another fastener

289
00:14:52,100 --> 00:14:53,419
other than the bolts.

290
00:14:55,540 --> 00:14:56,609
Yes.

291
00:14:57,900 --> 00:14:59,015
Yes.

292
00:15:04,540 --> 00:15:05,689
There is another opening

293
00:15:05,780 --> 00:15:07,577
in the Engineer
Training Program.

294
00:15:08,580 --> 00:15:10,935
Flat head rivets
would reduce wind drag.

295
00:15:11,100 --> 00:15:13,819
Mary, a person
with engineer's mind

296
00:15:13,900 --> 00:15:15,413
should be an engineer.

297
00:15:15,620 --> 00:15:17,420
You can't be a computer
the rest of your life.

298
00:15:17,580 --> 00:15:18,729
Mr. Zielinski...

299
00:15:19,460 --> 00:15:21,052
I'm a Negro woman.

300
00:15:21,220 --> 00:15:23,051
I'm not gonna entertain
the impossible.

301
00:15:23,220 --> 00:15:24,699
And I'm a Polish Jew

302
00:15:24,780 --> 00:15:26,771
whose parents died
in a Nazi prison camp.

303
00:15:26,940 --> 00:15:29,977
Now I'm standing
beneath a spaceship

304
00:15:30,140 --> 00:15:33,098
that's going to carry an
astronaut to the stars.

305
00:15:33,300 --> 00:15:36,736
I think we can say we are
living the impossible.

306
00:15:37,540 --> 00:15:39,258
Let me ask you...

307
00:15:39,420 --> 00:15:40,853
if you were a white male,

308
00:15:41,100 --> 00:15:42,453
would you wish
to be an engineer?

309
00:15:43,740 --> 00:15:47,016
I wouldn't have to.
I'd already be one.

310
00:15:47,580 --> 00:15:49,411
Skirts must be worn
past the knee.

311
00:15:49,580 --> 00:15:51,775
Sweaters are preferred
to blouses.

312
00:15:51,940 --> 00:15:52,975
No jewelry.

313
00:15:53,060 --> 00:15:55,176
A simple pearl necklace
is the exception.

314
00:15:55,340 --> 00:15:58,093
Your supervisor
is Mr. Al Harrison,

315
00:15:58,260 --> 00:16:00,410
Director of
the Space Task Group.

316
00:16:00,620 --> 00:16:03,851
You'll write research,
proof calculations, so forth.

317
00:16:04,020 --> 00:16:06,818
Do not talk to Mr. Harrison
unless he talks to you.

318
00:16:07,660 --> 00:16:10,094
Not many computers last
more than a few days.

319
00:16:10,260 --> 00:16:12,296
He's been through a dozen
in as many months.

320
00:16:13,100 --> 00:16:14,294
Come on, keep up.

321
00:16:14,780 --> 00:16:16,293
Things move fast
around here.

322
00:16:17,620 --> 00:16:18,939
Your clearance.

323
00:16:20,300 --> 00:16:22,894
They've never had a colored
in here before, Katherine.

324
00:16:23,100 --> 00:16:24,249
Don't embarrass me.

325
00:16:50,420 --> 00:16:51,739
This wasn't emptied
last night.

326
00:16:51,900 --> 00:16:53,618
I'm sorry, I'm not the...

327
00:16:54,620 --> 00:16:55,814
custodian.

328
00:17:11,420 --> 00:17:12,489
Excuse me, ma'am.

329
00:17:12,660 --> 00:17:14,696
Mr. Harrison's computer
reporting.

330
00:17:14,900 --> 00:17:17,539
Take the desk in the back.
I'll get you work in a bit.

331
00:17:20,900 --> 00:17:24,097
Mr. Harrison won't warm up
to you. Don't expect it.

332
00:17:24,260 --> 00:17:25,580
Do your work,
keep your head down.

333
00:17:26,340 --> 00:17:27,340
Thank you.

334
00:17:27,820 --> 00:17:29,572
Go on. Get settled.

335
00:17:40,900 --> 00:17:41,900
Paul.

336
00:17:42,580 --> 00:17:44,298
Why are we still
losing shingles

337
00:17:44,420 --> 00:17:45,614
off the heat shield?

338
00:17:45,780 --> 00:17:48,135
We're working with a prototype
of the capsule, Al.

339
00:17:48,300 --> 00:17:50,116
Its lid is one third the
size of what it's going...

340
00:17:50,140 --> 00:17:51,140
I get that.

341
00:17:51,900 --> 00:17:54,733
So, what do we do with our
million dollar fan, Karl?

342
00:17:54,940 --> 00:17:57,170
Turn it down?
No, Al. I don't think...

343
00:17:57,660 --> 00:17:58,729
It was a joke.

344
00:18:00,180 --> 00:18:01,977
Paul, if the heat shield
comes off...

345
00:18:02,140 --> 00:18:03,820
what do you think happens
to our astronaut?

346
00:18:03,900 --> 00:18:04,900
I know.

347
00:18:06,460 --> 00:18:08,140
So we're gonna come up
with a solve, right?

348
00:18:08,220 --> 00:18:09,380
Yes, sir.
We're working on it.

349
00:18:10,020 --> 00:18:11,738
Ruth, what's the status
on that computer?

350
00:18:11,900 --> 00:18:13,891
She's right behind you,
Mr. Harrison.

351
00:18:19,020 --> 00:18:21,409
Does she handle
Analytic Geometry?

352
00:18:21,580 --> 00:18:24,458
Absolutely.
And she speaks.

353
00:18:24,620 --> 00:18:25,848
Yes, sir. I do.

354
00:18:26,980 --> 00:18:28,618
Which one?
Both.

355
00:18:28,780 --> 00:18:30,259
Geometry and speaking.

356
00:18:32,380 --> 00:18:34,496
Ruth, get me the...

357
00:18:37,620 --> 00:18:38,620
You think you...

358
00:18:39,620 --> 00:18:41,116
You think you can find me
the Frenet frame

359
00:18:41,140 --> 00:18:42,140
for this data?

360
00:18:42,300 --> 00:18:43,574
Using the Gram-Schmidt...

361
00:18:43,700 --> 00:18:45,736
Orthogonalization algorithm.
Yes, sir.

362
00:18:45,900 --> 00:18:48,539
I prefer it over
Euclidean coordinates.

363
00:18:51,780 --> 00:18:53,099
Okay, good.

364
00:18:54,180 --> 00:18:56,180
Good, then I'm gonna need
it by the end of the day.

365
00:18:56,220 --> 00:18:57,335
Yes.

366
00:18:57,500 --> 00:18:58,649
I'm also gonna ask you

367
00:18:58,740 --> 00:18:59,820
to check
Mr. Stafford's math

368
00:18:59,980 --> 00:19:01,333
as well as others' on this floor

369
00:19:01,420 --> 00:19:02,489
from time to time.

370
00:19:02,660 --> 00:19:03,660
I can handle that, Al.

371
00:19:03,820 --> 00:19:05,697
I'm sure you can, Paul.
I'm sure they all can.

372
00:19:05,860 --> 00:19:07,339
But if that were the case

373
00:19:07,500 --> 00:19:09,036
shingles wouldn't be flying
off the heat shield,

374
00:19:09,060 --> 00:19:10,060
now would they?

375
00:19:12,140 --> 00:19:13,937
Excuse me, could I have
everyone's attention

376
00:19:14,020 --> 00:19:15,089
for a moment?

377
00:19:17,220 --> 00:19:18,699
Thank you.

378
00:19:19,540 --> 00:19:20,859
Just to be clear...

379
00:19:21,020 --> 00:19:23,898
in 14 days, the Mercury Seven
will be here for training.

380
00:19:24,060 --> 00:19:26,893
And I have no doubt in my mind
that they're going to be

381
00:19:27,060 --> 00:19:28,891
asking us questions
about our work.

382
00:19:29,780 --> 00:19:31,179
I think that's pretty reasonable

383
00:19:31,340 --> 00:19:33,296
given we're putting a human
on top of a missile,

384
00:19:33,500 --> 00:19:34,500
shooting him into space,

385
00:19:34,660 --> 00:19:36,013
and it's never been
done before.

386
00:19:37,740 --> 00:19:38,900
Because it's never been done,

387
00:19:38,980 --> 00:19:41,369
everything we do between now
and then is gonna matter.

388
00:19:43,020 --> 00:19:44,612
It's gonna matter
to their wives...

389
00:19:45,820 --> 00:19:47,333
to their children.

390
00:19:48,020 --> 00:19:50,140
I believe it's gonna matter
to the whole damn country.

391
00:19:51,620 --> 00:19:55,169
So this Space Task Group
will be as advertised.

392
00:19:55,340 --> 00:19:58,571
America's greatest engineering
and scientific minds

393
00:19:58,900 --> 00:20:00,299
are not gonna have a problem

394
00:20:00,380 --> 00:20:02,814
with having their work checked.
Are they, Paul?

395
00:20:03,220 --> 00:20:04,255
No, sir.

396
00:20:04,420 --> 00:20:06,331
Good. So let's have
an amen, damn it.

397
00:20:06,500 --> 00:20:07,500
Amen.

398
00:20:08,140 --> 00:20:10,210
Amen!

399
00:20:10,940 --> 00:20:12,009
All right.

400
00:20:40,580 --> 00:20:42,218
My numbers are spot on.

401
00:20:43,860 --> 00:20:46,135
I will double check them, sir.
No problem.

402
00:20:54,620 --> 00:20:55,620
Uh...

403
00:20:55,820 --> 00:20:57,836
I'm not gonna be able to...
Work on what you can read.

404
00:20:57,860 --> 00:21:00,613
The rest is classified.
You don't have clearance.

405
00:21:17,620 --> 00:21:19,975
These are the numbers
Mr. Harrison gave me.

406
00:21:20,140 --> 00:21:22,096
Yes, I'm absolutely...
Excuse me.

407
00:21:22,260 --> 00:21:23,739
May I ask
where the ladies' room is?

408
00:21:23,940 --> 00:21:26,408
Sorry. I have no idea
where your bathroom is.

409
00:21:27,220 --> 00:21:28,699
Yes, sir.

410
00:21:29,460 --> 00:21:31,257
Uh, yes, sir.

411
00:22:01,260 --> 00:22:03,854
Summertime in
Virginia was an oven

412
00:22:05,020 --> 00:22:07,170
All the kids eating
ice cream with their cousins

413
00:22:08,300 --> 00:22:10,894
I was studyin' while you
was playing the dozens

414
00:22:11,980 --> 00:22:14,574
Don't act like you was there
when you wasn't

415
00:22:14,660 --> 00:22:16,378
Runnin' from the man

416
00:22:16,460 --> 00:22:17,688
Runnin' from the badge

417
00:22:18,940 --> 00:22:21,215
Don't act like you was there
when you wasn't

418
00:22:21,580 --> 00:22:23,218
Runnin' toward our plans

419
00:22:23,300 --> 00:22:24,733
And the judges hands

420
00:22:25,860 --> 00:22:27,896
Don't act like you was there
when you wasn't

421
00:22:28,980 --> 00:22:31,574
I know they say
you crawl before you walk

422
00:22:32,420 --> 00:22:35,173
But in my mind I already jog

423
00:22:35,820 --> 00:22:38,698
If I stand still
I cannot get far

424
00:22:39,380 --> 00:22:41,496
They want the moon
I'm on Mars

425
00:22:41,580 --> 00:22:46,893
Sometime my mind dives deep
when I'm runnin'

426
00:22:48,620 --> 00:22:53,648
Together we'll fly
But no more runnin'

427
00:22:55,100 --> 00:22:56,100
Ruth!

428
00:22:56,260 --> 00:22:57,260
Yes, Mr. Harrison?

429
00:22:57,860 --> 00:23:00,055
Ruth, where's that girl
with the numbers?

430
00:23:00,220 --> 00:23:02,336
On a... break.

431
00:23:03,460 --> 00:23:04,495
We take breaks now?

432
00:23:06,780 --> 00:23:11,774
Sometime my mind dives deep
When I'm runnin'

433
00:23:12,900 --> 00:23:15,460
I don't want no free ride

434
00:23:16,220 --> 00:23:18,859
I'm just sick and tired
of runnin'

435
00:23:20,300 --> 00:23:25,135
Together we fly
But no more runnin'

436
00:23:32,380 --> 00:23:33,574
My God, where have you been?

437
00:23:33,780 --> 00:23:34,929
Are you finished yet?

438
00:23:35,100 --> 00:23:36,135
Uh...

439
00:23:36,220 --> 00:23:37,892
Almost. He said
by the end of the day.

440
00:23:37,980 --> 00:23:39,857
The end of the day around
here was yesterday.

441
00:23:41,260 --> 00:23:42,534
I need those done first.

442
00:23:42,700 --> 00:23:44,053
He wants those done first.
Okay.

443
00:23:44,220 --> 00:23:45,220
Get going.

444
00:23:45,420 --> 00:23:46,489
I'm sorry about that.

445
00:23:47,420 --> 00:23:48,899
Somebody's working on it
right now.

446
00:24:54,740 --> 00:24:55,809
Mr. Harrison.

447
00:24:57,660 --> 00:24:59,651
Yeah. Uh, Just set it...
You know.

448
00:25:02,740 --> 00:25:04,890
And Stafford's
heat shield calcs?

449
00:25:06,300 --> 00:25:08,052
It's hard
to be sure, sir.

450
00:25:08,860 --> 00:25:10,213
Hard to be sure.

451
00:25:11,060 --> 00:25:12,698
You know
what we're doing here?

452
00:25:14,340 --> 00:25:16,251
Trying to put
a man into space, sir.

453
00:25:16,420 --> 00:25:17,614
That's right.

454
00:25:18,620 --> 00:25:20,540
That's right. So you can
throw that in the trash.

455
00:25:20,700 --> 00:25:21,974
Excuse me?

456
00:25:22,700 --> 00:25:24,656
I said you can throw it away.

457
00:25:25,180 --> 00:25:26,180
Here.

458
00:25:27,300 --> 00:25:28,779
It's not an insult
to your work.

459
00:25:28,980 --> 00:25:30,493
It's just obsolete.

460
00:25:30,660 --> 00:25:32,890
That's how fast things
are moving around here.

461
00:25:33,060 --> 00:25:35,415
If I said I was sorry,
I'd be saying it all day.

462
00:25:36,300 --> 00:25:37,369
What I'm asking you to do,

463
00:25:37,460 --> 00:25:39,020
what I'm asking everyone
in that room...

464
00:25:39,180 --> 00:25:41,250
all my geniuses...

465
00:25:41,420 --> 00:25:43,092
is to look
beyond the numbers.

466
00:25:43,980 --> 00:25:45,936
To look around them.

467
00:25:46,100 --> 00:25:47,738
Through them.

468
00:25:47,900 --> 00:25:50,130
For answers to questions
we don't even know to ask.

469
00:25:50,940 --> 00:25:52,976
Math that
doesn't yet exist.

470
00:25:53,580 --> 00:25:55,889
Because without it,
we're not going anywhere.

471
00:25:56,060 --> 00:25:57,812
We're staying on the ground.

472
00:25:57,980 --> 00:26:00,540
We're not flying into space.
We're not circling the Earth.

473
00:26:00,700 --> 00:26:02,418
And we're certainly not
touching the Moon.

474
00:26:02,580 --> 00:26:03,774
And in my mind...

475
00:26:04,980 --> 00:26:07,335
In my mind, I'm already there.

476
00:26:09,580 --> 00:26:10,580
Are you?

477
00:26:12,140 --> 00:26:13,289
Yes, sir.

478
00:26:14,220 --> 00:26:15,448
Good.

479
00:26:15,620 --> 00:26:16,996
Because I don't need
another smart girl

480
00:26:17,020 --> 00:26:18,248
with an adding machine.

481
00:26:21,580 --> 00:26:22,933
Can I go, sir?

482
00:26:26,300 --> 00:26:28,018
Yeah, go.

483
00:26:29,300 --> 00:26:30,699
Yes, you can go.

484
00:27:01,980 --> 00:27:05,211
We've been waiting for hours.
Next time, you take the bus.

485
00:27:05,380 --> 00:27:06,608
She's in a mood.

486
00:27:10,020 --> 00:27:11,897
People talkin'
tryin' to break us up

487
00:27:12,300 --> 00:27:15,178
Why won't they let us be?

488
00:27:15,300 --> 00:27:17,814
Brick and stones
may break my bones

489
00:27:17,900 --> 00:27:19,891
But talk don't bother me

490
00:27:19,980 --> 00:27:23,097
I've been abused

491
00:27:23,220 --> 00:27:24,619
In my heart

492
00:27:25,260 --> 00:27:27,615
I haven't been late
one day in 10 years.

493
00:27:27,780 --> 00:27:30,419
Haven't been out sick.
Haven't complained.

494
00:27:30,580 --> 00:27:31,580
My work's on time.

495
00:27:31,660 --> 00:27:33,059
It's done right.
It's done well.

496
00:27:33,220 --> 00:27:34,573
It's not fair,
that's a fact.

497
00:27:34,740 --> 00:27:36,253
What's not fair
is having

498
00:27:36,340 --> 00:27:37,476
the responsibility
of a supervisor...

499
00:27:37,500 --> 00:27:39,297
- but not the title or the pay.
- Mmm.

500
00:27:40,140 --> 00:27:41,289
Watching you two move on.

501
00:27:42,260 --> 00:27:44,057
Now, don't get me wrong.

502
00:27:44,220 --> 00:27:46,780
Any upward movement
is movement for us all.

503
00:27:48,140 --> 00:27:49,937
Just isn't movement for me.

504
00:27:50,100 --> 00:27:51,100
Truth be told, Dorothy...

505
00:27:51,260 --> 00:27:53,490
I don't even know
if I can keep up in that room.

506
00:27:54,420 --> 00:27:56,934
I'll be back with
the computers in a week.

507
00:27:57,100 --> 00:27:58,852
Or out of a job entirely.

508
00:27:59,020 --> 00:28:00,055
Oh, please.

509
00:28:00,220 --> 00:28:01,876
You're better with the numbers
than anyone in there,

510
00:28:01,900 --> 00:28:02,980
Katherine, and you know it.

511
00:28:03,060 --> 00:28:05,196
Just make that pencil move
as fast as your mind does...

512
00:28:05,220 --> 00:28:06,699
you'll be fine.

513
00:28:06,860 --> 00:28:08,737
And you,
have some respect.

514
00:28:08,900 --> 00:28:10,538
Get your damn feet
off my dashboard.

515
00:28:10,620 --> 00:28:11,740
This isn't your living room.

516
00:28:16,100 --> 00:28:17,852
I sound like a supervisor,
don't I?

517
00:28:18,020 --> 00:28:19,578
A mean old salty one.

518
00:28:19,740 --> 00:28:21,571
Riddled with authority,
no question.

519
00:28:23,060 --> 00:28:24,812
You don't mess
with Mrs. Vaughan.

520
00:28:26,100 --> 00:28:27,499
Turn that music up.

521
00:28:43,980 --> 00:28:45,180
Good night,
Katherine.

522
00:28:45,300 --> 00:28:46,300
Bye, Kat.

523
00:28:46,380 --> 00:28:47,380
Good night, ladies.

524
00:28:47,460 --> 00:28:48,780
- See you in the morning.
- Bye.

525
00:28:57,620 --> 00:28:58,620
Hey, baby.

526
00:28:58,780 --> 00:28:59,849
Hello, Mama.

527
00:29:00,460 --> 00:29:03,179
I was fixing to call
the National Guard.

528
00:29:04,340 --> 00:29:07,969
Sorry, Mama.
New assignment.

529
00:29:08,140 --> 00:29:09,937
Space Task Group.

530
00:29:10,100 --> 00:29:12,091
Oh, my word.
That sounds important.

531
00:29:12,260 --> 00:29:13,932
It's a promotion?

532
00:29:14,260 --> 00:29:16,933
It might be
a slight promotion.

533
00:29:17,740 --> 00:29:19,059
But you want the job, right?

534
00:29:20,980 --> 00:29:22,538
I think so.

535
00:29:22,700 --> 00:29:24,452
It's a challenge, but...

536
00:29:24,580 --> 00:29:26,696
It's nothing you
can't handle, Katherine.

537
00:29:28,660 --> 00:29:30,298
Thank you, Mama.

538
00:29:31,900 --> 00:29:32,969
Are they asleep yet?

539
00:29:33,180 --> 00:29:34,772
They're pretending to be.

540
00:29:34,940 --> 00:29:37,090
- What are you doing?
- I don't...

541
00:29:37,260 --> 00:29:38,932
They're not pretending
well enough.

542
00:29:39,020 --> 00:29:40,020
Constance!

543
00:29:40,100 --> 00:29:41,977
Thank you, Mama.
Love you.

544
00:29:42,140 --> 00:29:43,493
This is my bed.
No.

545
00:29:43,580 --> 00:29:44,580
Get off!

546
00:29:44,660 --> 00:29:46,059
Go back to yours!
I'm oldest! No.

547
00:29:46,140 --> 00:29:47,436
- What are you doing?
- Get off!

548
00:29:47,460 --> 00:29:48,688
What are you doing?

549
00:29:48,860 --> 00:29:51,420
It's not fair how Joylette
gets to sleep by herself

550
00:29:51,620 --> 00:29:53,258
because she's the oldest.

551
00:29:53,420 --> 00:29:54,853
Yes, it is fair.
No, it's not.

552
00:29:55,020 --> 00:29:56,516
- Yes, it is.
- Nuh-uh.

553
00:29:56,540 --> 00:29:58,770
Constance, Kathy, sit.

554
00:30:02,940 --> 00:30:05,090
Now, I understand...

555
00:30:05,300 --> 00:30:07,973
you want to be grown
and have your own space.

556
00:30:08,860 --> 00:30:10,816
So, whoever sleeps
in that bed,

557
00:30:10,940 --> 00:30:12,532
in Joylette's place...

558
00:30:12,700 --> 00:30:14,452
will also do the dishes...

559
00:30:14,620 --> 00:30:16,372
take out the trash...

560
00:30:16,540 --> 00:30:18,496
and do all of
Joylette's chores.

561
00:30:19,180 --> 00:30:21,489
That's okay. Never mind.

562
00:30:21,660 --> 00:30:23,378
Yeah, she's not so
terrible to share with.

563
00:30:25,740 --> 00:30:26,740
Okay.

564
00:30:26,820 --> 00:30:28,219
Then don't let me
come home

565
00:30:28,300 --> 00:30:30,336
and find you like
this again, you hear me?

566
00:30:30,500 --> 00:30:32,968
You're supposed to been
asleep a long time ago.

567
00:30:33,140 --> 00:30:34,653
We just wanted
to say goodnight.

568
00:30:34,820 --> 00:30:37,380
You've been gone
for 300 hours.

569
00:30:39,660 --> 00:30:41,696
I know. I work a
full-time job now.

570
00:30:41,860 --> 00:30:43,373
You all know that.

571
00:30:45,340 --> 00:30:48,138
I have to be Mommy and Daddy.

572
00:30:52,580 --> 00:30:54,571
I miss your father
just as much as anyone.

573
00:30:55,340 --> 00:30:57,535
He's with the angels.

574
00:30:57,700 --> 00:30:59,656
Yes, he's with
all the angels.

575
00:30:59,820 --> 00:31:01,492
And he's watching over us.

576
00:31:01,660 --> 00:31:03,935
Every minute, okay?

577
00:31:04,100 --> 00:31:06,489
That's why we have
to be strong.

578
00:31:06,580 --> 00:31:07,580
All right?

579
00:31:07,660 --> 00:31:09,013
Yes, Mama.
Yes, Mama.

580
00:31:09,180 --> 00:31:10,533
Y'all get some rest, okay?

581
00:31:11,100 --> 00:31:12,100
Mama?

582
00:31:12,180 --> 00:31:13,180
Yes, baby?

583
00:31:13,780 --> 00:31:16,089
Are the Russians fixin'
to attack us?

584
00:31:16,700 --> 00:31:17,849
Where'd you
get that from?

585
00:31:18,020 --> 00:31:19,540
We had to hide under
our desks today...

586
00:31:20,380 --> 00:31:21,449
all scrunched up.

587
00:31:22,060 --> 00:31:24,096
Okay, baby,
that's called a drill.

588
00:31:24,260 --> 00:31:25,739
It means, uh...

589
00:31:25,900 --> 00:31:27,379
you practice safety

590
00:31:27,460 --> 00:31:29,849
just in case something happens.

591
00:31:32,460 --> 00:31:35,293
Truth is, we don't know
what they're doing up there.

592
00:31:35,460 --> 00:31:36,939
You going to space, too?

593
00:31:37,140 --> 00:31:38,539
No, baby.

594
00:31:38,700 --> 00:31:41,851
But I'm going to do
what I can

595
00:31:42,060 --> 00:31:45,052
to help those brave men
get there. Yes, I am.

596
00:31:45,220 --> 00:31:48,053
You could fly up to space
if you wanted to, Mama.

597
00:31:48,220 --> 00:31:49,699
You could be an astronaut.

598
00:31:49,900 --> 00:31:51,777
Did you draw this?
Yes, Mama.

599
00:31:53,100 --> 00:31:55,091
Is that me?

600
00:31:55,260 --> 00:31:56,260
Mmm-hmm.

601
00:31:56,980 --> 00:31:58,129
You see this?

602
00:31:59,620 --> 00:32:01,212
Oh, my goodness.

603
00:32:01,380 --> 00:32:02,972
I love you, baby.

604
00:32:04,060 --> 00:32:05,060
I know.

605
00:32:05,220 --> 00:32:06,619
Come here.

606
00:32:06,780 --> 00:32:09,135
All right. Now this time
really go to bed.

607
00:32:09,740 --> 00:32:10,740
Okay?

608
00:32:10,900 --> 00:32:12,618
I love y'all.
Good night.

609
00:32:12,780 --> 00:32:13,900
Good night.
Good night, Mama.

610
00:32:13,940 --> 00:32:15,896
I love my picture, baby.

611
00:32:24,660 --> 00:32:25,775
Thank you, Lord.

612
00:32:28,300 --> 00:32:30,131
- Praise God!
- Praise God!

613
00:32:30,300 --> 00:32:32,416
Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!

614
00:32:34,580 --> 00:32:35,580
Hallelujah.

615
00:32:37,020 --> 00:32:38,419
Praise God...

616
00:32:39,420 --> 00:32:42,139
that change is coming.

617
00:32:44,140 --> 00:32:47,450
From the Southern Christian
Leadership Conference...

618
00:32:47,620 --> 00:32:49,611
to the good reverend
Dr. King...

619
00:32:49,780 --> 00:32:51,099
Amen!
Hallelujah!

620
00:32:51,260 --> 00:32:53,455
to the students sitting in
at lunch counters

621
00:32:53,540 --> 00:32:54,540
in North Carolina.

622
00:32:54,700 --> 00:32:55,700
That's right.
Yes, sir.

623
00:32:55,820 --> 00:32:58,653
His faith in us
has no limit.

624
00:32:59,380 --> 00:33:02,656
The good Lord
has our very own women

625
00:33:02,820 --> 00:33:04,458
working on rocket ships.

626
00:33:08,620 --> 00:33:11,657
And we have National Guardsmen

627
00:33:11,860 --> 00:33:13,009
defending our freedom.

628
00:33:13,180 --> 00:33:15,455
Give a shout of praise
for Colonel Jim Johnson.

629
00:33:18,220 --> 00:33:20,131
Returning home,
by the grace of God

630
00:33:20,300 --> 00:33:22,655
to set up
a National Guard unit

631
00:33:23,020 --> 00:33:24,294
right here in Hampton.

632
00:33:25,300 --> 00:33:26,733
Can I get a hallelujah in here?

633
00:33:26,900 --> 00:33:28,891
Hallelujah!

634
00:33:33,140 --> 00:33:34,539
I just don't understand.

635
00:33:35,340 --> 00:33:36,693
I don't understand it.

636
00:33:36,860 --> 00:33:38,500
I don't wanna talk
about this again, okay?

637
00:33:38,900 --> 00:33:40,253
A female engineer?

638
00:33:41,420 --> 00:33:42,420
A female engineer?

639
00:33:42,980 --> 00:33:44,095
We're Negro, baby.

640
00:33:44,180 --> 00:33:45,540
Ain't no such thing.
Understand it.

641
00:33:45,660 --> 00:33:47,013
It's not like that
there, Levi.

642
00:33:47,180 --> 00:33:48,499
You can't apply for freedom.

643
00:33:48,660 --> 00:33:51,379
Freedom is never granted
to the oppressed.

644
00:33:51,540 --> 00:33:53,053
It's got
to be demanded. Taken.

645
00:33:53,220 --> 00:33:55,051
Stop quoting your slogans at me.

646
00:33:55,580 --> 00:33:57,855
There is more than one way
to achieve something.

647
00:33:58,020 --> 00:33:59,020
I don't want any greens.

648
00:33:59,060 --> 00:34:01,016
Hey. I tell you
about interrupting?

649
00:34:01,100 --> 00:34:02,852
Here. Try this, baby.

650
00:34:04,940 --> 00:34:05,940
Yes.

651
00:34:06,020 --> 00:34:07,817
You're gonna eat
them greens, too.

652
00:34:07,900 --> 00:34:09,856
Kids need
to eat their vegetables.

653
00:34:10,020 --> 00:34:11,738
You'd know that
if you was ever home.

654
00:34:14,100 --> 00:34:16,011
You better settle down,
Levi Jackson.

655
00:34:16,180 --> 00:34:17,852
Unless you want
this female's mind,

656
00:34:17,940 --> 00:34:19,931
right here,
in front of everybody.

657
00:34:22,020 --> 00:34:23,453
All I'm saying...

658
00:34:23,620 --> 00:34:25,372
don't play the fool.

659
00:34:25,540 --> 00:34:27,371
I don't wanna
see you get hurt.

660
00:34:27,540 --> 00:34:29,451
NASA's never ever
given you guys your due.

661
00:34:29,620 --> 00:34:30,973
Having a couple
of extra degrees

662
00:34:31,060 --> 00:34:32,209
ain't gonna change that.

663
00:34:33,740 --> 00:34:35,890
Civil rights
ain't always civil.

664
00:34:41,540 --> 00:34:43,212
I don't want
any greens either.

665
00:34:43,380 --> 00:34:44,415
No lip, little miss.

666
00:34:44,620 --> 00:34:46,100
Your brother gets them,
and so do you.

667
00:34:49,100 --> 00:34:51,455
I hear he's planning
on staying in the area.

668
00:34:52,900 --> 00:34:54,811
Oh, yeah?
Well, that's good for him.

669
00:34:54,980 --> 00:34:57,448
Katherine, go find
your way over there.

670
00:34:57,620 --> 00:35:00,657
That Colonel Jim
is a tall glass of water.

671
00:35:00,820 --> 00:35:02,094
That he is.

672
00:35:02,300 --> 00:35:04,814
Tall, strong, commanding.

673
00:35:04,980 --> 00:35:07,255
And I bet he's like that
day and night.

674
00:35:07,420 --> 00:35:10,014
Mary, it's Sunday.

675
00:35:10,180 --> 00:35:11,499
Please have some shame.

676
00:35:11,660 --> 00:35:12,934
I will not.

677
00:35:13,660 --> 00:35:16,128
Hmm, I think he's
smiling over here.

678
00:35:16,300 --> 00:35:17,494
At you.

679
00:35:21,940 --> 00:35:23,168
Well I'm not smiling back.

680
00:35:23,260 --> 00:35:24,295
Yes, you are.
Oh, child.

681
00:35:24,380 --> 00:35:26,211
You are all teeth right now.
I am not.

682
00:35:27,420 --> 00:35:28,648
Come over here.

683
00:35:29,100 --> 00:35:30,140
He's coming over.

684
00:35:30,260 --> 00:35:31,636
Now, why would
he be doing that?

685
00:35:31,660 --> 00:35:33,340
- 'Cause Mary's waving at him.
- No!

686
00:35:33,460 --> 00:35:35,156
Ladies, I'm not ready.
It's too late. Fix your hair.

687
00:35:35,180 --> 00:35:36,180
Hello, Colonel.

688
00:35:37,260 --> 00:35:38,454
I'm Dorothy Vaughan.

689
00:35:38,620 --> 00:35:40,756
That's Mary Jackson.
I believe you met her husband, Levi.

690
00:35:40,780 --> 00:35:42,293
Yes, ma'am.
Good to meet y'all.

691
00:35:42,460 --> 00:35:43,813
And Mrs. Katherine Goble.

692
00:35:43,980 --> 00:35:45,777
She's not married.
She's a widow...

693
00:35:45,940 --> 00:35:48,135
with three beautiful
little girls.

694
00:35:48,300 --> 00:35:49,300
So well behaved.

695
00:35:49,460 --> 00:35:51,610
Angels on earth is what
we like to call them.

696
00:35:51,780 --> 00:35:53,452
Dorothy, slice of pie?

697
00:35:53,620 --> 00:35:55,133
I'd love one.

698
00:35:55,300 --> 00:35:56,779
Excuse me.

699
00:35:56,980 --> 00:35:58,116
You already have
a slice of pie...

700
00:35:58,140 --> 00:35:59,140
Uh-huh.

701
00:36:02,820 --> 00:36:05,459
I was just, uh, fixing my
three babies some plates...

702
00:36:05,660 --> 00:36:06,854
Let me help you.

703
00:36:07,820 --> 00:36:09,048
Sure.

704
00:36:09,220 --> 00:36:11,211
Fruit salad.
Mmm-hmm.

705
00:36:12,700 --> 00:36:15,578
Pastor mentioned you're
a computer at NASA.

706
00:36:15,660 --> 00:36:16,660
Yes.

707
00:36:16,700 --> 00:36:18,053
What's that entail?

708
00:36:18,660 --> 00:36:19,660
Oh.

709
00:36:19,980 --> 00:36:21,971
We calculate
the mathematics necessary

710
00:36:22,140 --> 00:36:24,700
to enable launch and landing
for the space program.

711
00:36:25,060 --> 00:36:27,369
That's pretty heady stuff.

712
00:36:27,540 --> 00:36:28,575
Yes, it is.

713
00:36:28,740 --> 00:36:30,458
They let women
handle that sort of...

714
00:36:30,540 --> 00:36:31,540
Uh...

715
00:36:33,660 --> 00:36:36,049
That's not what I mean.

716
00:36:36,220 --> 00:36:37,539
What do you mean?

717
00:36:40,420 --> 00:36:43,651
I'm just surprised
that something so...

718
00:36:45,500 --> 00:36:46,774
taxing...
Mmm-hmm.

719
00:36:46,860 --> 00:36:48,373
Mr. Johnson.

720
00:36:49,500 --> 00:36:51,695
If I were you,
I'd quit talking right now.

721
00:36:51,860 --> 00:36:53,088
I didn't mean
no disrespect.

722
00:36:54,340 --> 00:36:55,614
I will have you know

723
00:36:55,780 --> 00:36:57,850
I was the first
Negro female student

724
00:36:58,020 --> 00:37:00,215
at West Virginia University
Graduate School.

725
00:37:00,940 --> 00:37:02,168
On any given day...

726
00:37:02,380 --> 00:37:04,450
I analyze the manometer levels

727
00:37:04,540 --> 00:37:07,008
for air displacement,
friction, and velocity

728
00:37:07,220 --> 00:37:09,654
and compute
over 10,000 calculations

729
00:37:09,740 --> 00:37:11,458
by cosine, square root...

730
00:37:11,620 --> 00:37:13,656
and, lately, analytic geometry.

731
00:37:13,740 --> 00:37:14,740
By hand.

732
00:37:15,260 --> 00:37:17,820
There are 20 bright,
highly capable

733
00:37:17,940 --> 00:37:19,737
Negro women
in the West Computing Group.

734
00:37:19,940 --> 00:37:22,374
And we're proud to be doing
our part for the country.

735
00:37:23,220 --> 00:37:24,220
So, yes.

736
00:37:24,380 --> 00:37:26,769
They let women do some things
at NASA, Mr. Johnson.

737
00:37:27,460 --> 00:37:29,735
And it's not because
we wear skirts.

738
00:37:30,300 --> 00:37:32,291
It's because
we wear glasses.

739
00:37:33,460 --> 00:37:34,939
Have a good day.

740
00:37:48,980 --> 00:37:50,254
Scott, welcome to Langley.

741
00:37:51,620 --> 00:37:52,735
Welcome to Langley.
Welcome.

742
00:37:53,580 --> 00:37:55,252
Good to have
you here, gentlemen.

743
00:38:04,340 --> 00:38:05,614
Thank you.

744
00:38:05,820 --> 00:38:08,459
That's Alan Shepard,
U.S. Navy pilot.

745
00:38:08,620 --> 00:38:10,451
He could be the
first man in space.

746
00:38:10,660 --> 00:38:13,299
And that's Scott Carpenter
and Walter Schirra...

747
00:38:13,460 --> 00:38:15,018
also Navy pilots.

748
00:38:15,180 --> 00:38:17,933
All under 5'11", 180 pounds.

749
00:38:18,100 --> 00:38:19,692
IQs over 130.
Mmm.

750
00:38:19,860 --> 00:38:21,771
And handsome must be
a requirement too.

751
00:38:21,940 --> 00:38:24,659
How could you possibly be
ogling these white men?

752
00:38:24,820 --> 00:38:25,820
It's equal rights.

753
00:38:25,940 --> 00:38:27,931
I have the right to see
fine in every color.

754
00:38:28,940 --> 00:38:32,250
And that's John Glenn.
He's the only Marine Corps pilot.

755
00:38:32,820 --> 00:38:34,936
Gentlemen, if we may,
much to see around here.

756
00:38:35,140 --> 00:38:37,020
Well, heck, we haven't
shaken all the hands yet.

757
00:38:37,060 --> 00:38:38,700
We have a fairly tight
itinerary, Colonel.

758
00:38:38,780 --> 00:38:39,780
Ruth, he's fine.

759
00:38:39,980 --> 00:38:41,276
He's coming this way.
Look straight ahead.

760
00:38:41,300 --> 00:38:42,300
I'm looking right at him.

761
00:38:42,460 --> 00:38:45,452
Ladies, I didn't wanna run
off without saying hello.

762
00:38:45,620 --> 00:38:47,133
Seem to be in a big
rush around here.

763
00:38:47,300 --> 00:38:49,211
The Russians certainly
aren't slowing down any.

764
00:38:49,380 --> 00:38:50,972
They can't build
a damn refrigerator.

765
00:38:51,060 --> 00:38:52,660
How the heck did they
beat us into space?

766
00:38:53,980 --> 00:38:55,276
And what do you ladies do
for NASA?

767
00:38:55,300 --> 00:38:57,860
Calculate your trajectories.
Launch and landing.

768
00:38:57,980 --> 00:38:59,036
You can't get anywhere
without the numbers.

769
00:38:59,060 --> 00:39:00,060
No, sir.

770
00:39:00,660 --> 00:39:04,016
Mary Jackson, Mr. Glenn.
Engineering.

771
00:39:04,180 --> 00:39:05,636
And I'm proud as the devil
to be working with you.

772
00:39:05,660 --> 00:39:06,809
Thank you, Mary.

773
00:39:06,900 --> 00:39:07,900
John.

774
00:39:09,260 --> 00:39:10,818
John, let's take it inside.
Yes, sir.

775
00:39:10,980 --> 00:39:12,618
Guys.
Nice meeting you guys.

776
00:39:12,900 --> 00:39:14,260
Thank you, Colonel.
Good luck, sir.

777
00:39:14,340 --> 00:39:15,659
God bless you all.

778
00:39:16,660 --> 00:39:17,854
Thank you. That's wonderful.

779
00:39:18,660 --> 00:39:19,660
Thank you!

780
00:39:50,180 --> 00:39:51,579
Mr. Harrison wants you
to confirm

781
00:39:51,740 --> 00:39:54,379
launch and landing for the
Redstone rocket test.

782
00:39:59,380 --> 00:40:02,611
I cannot work on what
I cannot see, Mr. Stafford.

783
00:40:02,780 --> 00:40:03,849
It's illegible.

784
00:40:04,060 --> 00:40:05,660
Those numbers have
already been confirmed

785
00:40:05,740 --> 00:40:07,617
by two engineers in this
department and myself.

786
00:40:07,700 --> 00:40:09,816
This is more or less
a dummy check.

787
00:40:46,420 --> 00:40:48,420
You have one, we make it two.
Make it double, okay?

788
00:40:48,460 --> 00:40:50,257
We gotta get it.
Just make it happen.

789
00:40:53,100 --> 00:40:55,295
No one thought to measure
these things?

790
00:40:55,460 --> 00:40:57,098
I'm afraid not, sir.

791
00:40:58,500 --> 00:41:00,616
Well, would you
like us to stop?

792
00:41:00,780 --> 00:41:02,771
No. No, just...

793
00:41:03,420 --> 00:41:05,854
Actually, no.
Just keep going.

794
00:41:06,860 --> 00:41:09,499
In fact, use the
big hammer.

795
00:41:09,660 --> 00:41:10,660
Yes, sir.

796
00:41:10,780 --> 00:41:12,916
Come on, use the big hammer.
You heard the man. Let's go.

797
00:41:12,940 --> 00:41:13,940
Watch out.

798
00:41:39,980 --> 00:41:40,980
Ma'am.

799
00:41:43,340 --> 00:41:45,570
Our runner can pick up
your work, Dorothy.

800
00:41:46,540 --> 00:41:48,212
You need to be working,
not walking.

801
00:41:48,380 --> 00:41:51,656
Oh, it's break time, ma'am.
No trouble at all.

802
00:41:51,820 --> 00:41:53,492
Since you made the trip...

803
00:41:53,660 --> 00:41:55,776
you can take that batch
over there.

804
00:41:56,540 --> 00:41:58,337
Sure thing, Mrs. Mitchell.

805
00:42:01,340 --> 00:42:03,535
You need something else?
Yes, ma'am.

806
00:42:04,380 --> 00:42:06,036
I was wondering if you know
what they're building

807
00:42:06,060 --> 00:42:07,060
over in the tech wing.

808
00:42:09,940 --> 00:42:12,010
It's called an IBM.

809
00:42:12,180 --> 00:42:13,659
A mainframe machine.

810
00:42:14,380 --> 00:42:15,893
Apparently, it can
do our calculations

811
00:42:16,020 --> 00:42:17,060
in a fraction of the time.

812
00:42:17,740 --> 00:42:18,740
Hmm.

813
00:42:19,340 --> 00:42:21,012
I guess that's good for NASA.

814
00:42:24,420 --> 00:42:26,536
Hurry on, now.
Best if you do it in one trip.

815
00:42:44,220 --> 00:42:45,289
Excuse me.

816
00:43:13,500 --> 00:43:14,500
Hi.

817
00:43:20,060 --> 00:43:21,812
What are you
looking at, Paul?

818
00:43:30,140 --> 00:43:31,573
Is that correct?

819
00:43:33,020 --> 00:43:34,020
Yeah.

820
00:43:40,820 --> 00:43:41,855
Whose work is that?

821
00:43:44,100 --> 00:43:45,931
I said, whose work is that?

822
00:43:48,940 --> 00:43:50,532
Katherine Goble, sir.

823
00:43:54,420 --> 00:43:55,420
Hello.
Hi.

824
00:43:55,460 --> 00:43:56,516
How did you know
the Redstone

825
00:43:56,540 --> 00:43:58,098
couldn't support orbital flight?

826
00:43:58,260 --> 00:43:59,436
That's classified information.

827
00:43:59,460 --> 00:44:00,460
It's top secret.

828
00:44:01,100 --> 00:44:03,295
It's no secret why the
Redstone tests keep failing.

829
00:44:03,460 --> 00:44:04,939
It's fine
for sub-orbital flight

830
00:44:05,100 --> 00:44:07,136
but it can't handle
the weight of the capsule

831
00:44:07,300 --> 00:44:08,300
and push it into space.

832
00:44:08,940 --> 00:44:10,453
Numbers don't lie.

833
00:44:11,380 --> 00:44:13,371
And you figured
all that out with this?

834
00:44:15,140 --> 00:44:16,971
Half the data is redacted.

835
00:44:17,860 --> 00:44:21,216
But what's there tells a story
if you read between the lines.

836
00:44:21,380 --> 00:44:23,060
The distance from launch
to orbit, we know.

837
00:44:23,220 --> 00:44:24,414
Redstone mass, we know.

838
00:44:24,500 --> 00:44:26,456
Mercury capsule weight, we know.

839
00:44:26,660 --> 00:44:29,458
And the speeds are there
in the data.

840
00:44:29,660 --> 00:44:31,298
You did the math.

841
00:44:31,700 --> 00:44:32,700
Yes, sir.

842
00:44:33,500 --> 00:44:35,331
I looked beyond.

843
00:44:37,500 --> 00:44:39,809
How do you know
about the Atlas rocket?

844
00:44:42,820 --> 00:44:44,811
That's not math.

845
00:44:44,980 --> 00:44:46,049
That data is not here.

846
00:44:46,180 --> 00:44:47,852
Like you said, it's classified.

847
00:44:54,020 --> 00:44:55,817
I held it up to the light.

848
00:44:56,020 --> 00:44:57,339
You held it up
to the light?

849
00:44:57,500 --> 00:44:58,569
Yes, sir.

850
00:45:03,860 --> 00:45:04,860
Well, there it is.

851
00:45:05,020 --> 00:45:06,020
Mmm-hmm.

852
00:45:07,340 --> 00:45:08,340
Atlas.

853
00:45:09,260 --> 00:45:10,329
What's your name?

854
00:45:10,500 --> 00:45:12,013
Katherine Goble.

855
00:45:13,340 --> 00:45:14,693
Are you a spy, Katherine?

856
00:45:14,860 --> 00:45:15,860
Am I what?

857
00:45:15,900 --> 00:45:17,100
I said, are you a Russian spy?

858
00:45:17,180 --> 00:45:18,533
No, sir.

859
00:45:18,700 --> 00:45:20,053
I'm not Russian.

860
00:45:21,580 --> 00:45:23,218
She's not Russian, sir.

861
00:45:25,020 --> 00:45:26,851
All right then, we have
nothing to lose here.

862
00:45:27,020 --> 00:45:28,076
Give her everything she needs

863
00:45:28,100 --> 00:45:29,356
to work on Shepard's
trajectories.

864
00:45:29,380 --> 00:45:31,450
Without redaction.
Are we clear on that?

865
00:45:31,620 --> 00:45:32,894
Are we sure about this?

866
00:45:33,100 --> 00:45:34,100
What's the issue, Paul?

867
00:45:34,260 --> 00:45:35,693
You heard her.

868
00:45:35,860 --> 00:45:36,860
She's not a spy.

869
00:45:37,700 --> 00:45:39,292
I just don't think
it's a good idea.

870
00:45:39,460 --> 00:45:43,135
You know what I think's
a good idea? Darker ink.

871
00:45:43,300 --> 00:45:44,580
I think darker ink's
a good idea.

872
00:45:44,700 --> 00:45:45,796
Ruth, could you
pass it along?

873
00:45:45,820 --> 00:45:46,820
Yes, sir.

874
00:45:46,980 --> 00:45:48,049
Thank you, Katherine.

875
00:45:48,220 --> 00:45:49,369
Thank you, sir.

876
00:45:55,900 --> 00:45:57,891
This interrogation's over.

877
00:46:16,460 --> 00:46:18,610
You can probably get to the
moon and back with this.

878
00:46:18,780 --> 00:46:20,179
Just not the bathroom.

879
00:46:20,340 --> 00:46:22,490
At least they're not
blind of what you do.

880
00:46:22,660 --> 00:46:23,740
It's not gonna matter soon.

881
00:46:23,940 --> 00:46:26,534
This IBM's gonna
put us all out of work.

882
00:46:26,700 --> 00:46:28,611
How you doing?
What can we do about it?

883
00:46:29,340 --> 00:46:31,331
Only one thing to do.

884
00:46:31,500 --> 00:46:33,218
Learn all we can,
make ourselves valuable.

885
00:46:33,820 --> 00:46:35,276
Somewhere down the line,
a human being

886
00:46:35,300 --> 00:46:36,596
is gonna have
to push the buttons.

887
00:46:36,620 --> 00:46:38,019
That's right.

888
00:46:40,220 --> 00:46:41,778
Oh, mercy.

889
00:46:41,940 --> 00:46:43,532
Well, she must be lost.

890
00:46:43,700 --> 00:46:44,916
NASA doesn't commission females

891
00:46:44,940 --> 00:46:46,260
for the Engineer
Training Program.

892
00:46:47,460 --> 00:46:51,169
That position is available
to any qualified applicant.

893
00:46:51,340 --> 00:46:54,138
Right. Except, you don't have
the educational requirements.

894
00:46:54,300 --> 00:46:55,369
I have a bachelor's degree

895
00:46:55,460 --> 00:46:56,796
in mathematics
and physical science.

896
00:46:56,820 --> 00:46:58,697
It's the same as most
engineers around here.

897
00:46:58,860 --> 00:47:01,374
We now require advanced
extension courses

898
00:47:01,460 --> 00:47:02,973
through the University
of Virginia.

899
00:47:03,140 --> 00:47:05,335
It's in the employee
handbook. In addendum.

900
00:47:06,620 --> 00:47:07,740
In case you haven't read it.

901
00:47:08,380 --> 00:47:10,530
Every time we have a chance
to get ahead...

902
00:47:10,740 --> 00:47:11,889
they move the finish line.

903
00:47:12,060 --> 00:47:13,460
I just follow the rules
around here.

904
00:47:13,660 --> 00:47:15,173
And I expect everyone
who works for me

905
00:47:15,300 --> 00:47:16,300
to follow them as well.

906
00:47:16,460 --> 00:47:19,657
There are no special
circumstances for anyone.

907
00:47:20,140 --> 00:47:22,290
Y'all should be thankful
you have jobs at all.

908
00:47:28,140 --> 00:47:31,610
"For those that cannot attend classes
at the University of Virginia...

909
00:47:31,780 --> 00:47:34,169
"advanced extension courses
are available

910
00:47:34,340 --> 00:47:36,137
"at the Hampton High School."

911
00:47:36,860 --> 00:47:39,135
That's still a
segregated school, Mary.

912
00:47:39,300 --> 00:47:41,768
Virginia acts like Brown
versus Board of Education

913
00:47:41,860 --> 00:47:42,860
never happened.

914
00:47:43,060 --> 00:47:45,335
They are never gonna
allow a colored woman

915
00:47:45,500 --> 00:47:47,491
to just take classes
at an all-white school.

916
00:47:47,660 --> 00:47:49,457
Well, sounds about right.

917
00:47:49,620 --> 00:47:51,338
That's all you gonna say?

918
00:47:51,420 --> 00:47:53,156
I'm not gonna sit here all day
and listen to you complain

919
00:47:53,180 --> 00:47:54,374
about the way things are.

920
00:47:54,540 --> 00:47:55,620
We're trying to play cards.

921
00:47:55,740 --> 00:47:57,356
Petition the court.
Fight for what you want.

922
00:47:57,380 --> 00:47:58,859
But quit talking about it.

923
00:48:01,860 --> 00:48:03,498
I've been complaining?
For days.

924
00:48:03,660 --> 00:48:04,660
Ladies.

925
00:48:05,860 --> 00:48:07,976
Not one more peep
about work.

926
00:48:08,140 --> 00:48:09,209
Deal me in.

927
00:48:09,340 --> 00:48:10,340
Katherine?

928
00:48:10,380 --> 00:48:11,779
- Come on.
- Oh, no.

929
00:48:11,900 --> 00:48:12,969
Right here.
You.

930
00:48:13,140 --> 00:48:15,017
Child, I needed this.

931
00:48:15,220 --> 00:48:16,220
Thank you.

932
00:48:18,700 --> 00:48:20,895
Don't give her
anymore, Katherine.

933
00:48:21,100 --> 00:48:23,216
I can't. She drank it all.

934
00:48:23,380 --> 00:48:25,655
Listen, I'm fine.

935
00:48:25,820 --> 00:48:27,697
I'm as fine
as I have ever been.

936
00:48:27,900 --> 00:48:29,652
You're drunk
as you've ever been.

937
00:48:31,060 --> 00:48:32,573
Come on. Let's dance, ladies.

938
00:48:34,220 --> 00:48:35,494
Come on, Kat. Let's dance.

939
00:48:35,700 --> 00:48:36,980
Go and dance with her,
Katherine.

940
00:48:37,100 --> 00:48:38,453
Come on.
Get out here.

941
00:48:38,540 --> 00:48:39,655
Hide that.

942
00:48:39,740 --> 00:48:40,836
We gonna teach you
how to dance.

943
00:48:40,860 --> 00:48:41,860
You go ahead.

944
00:48:41,940 --> 00:48:43,896
All right.
It's too low.

945
00:48:44,060 --> 00:48:45,698
We gonna teach you
how to get a man.

946
00:48:45,780 --> 00:48:47,691
- Teach me? What?
- That's right. Come on!

947
00:48:47,780 --> 00:48:49,418
You got to know
how to dance.

948
00:48:49,580 --> 00:48:51,059
Slow. Slow.
Come on.

949
00:48:51,220 --> 00:48:53,176
Twirl it around.
Twirl, twirl.

950
00:48:53,380 --> 00:48:55,496
Yes!
Twirl, twirl, twirl.

951
00:48:55,580 --> 00:48:57,252
Whoo! Look at her,
Dorothy.

952
00:48:57,420 --> 00:48:59,411
Can I win me one of those
fancy dance contests?

953
00:48:59,580 --> 00:49:00,854
Whip it around.

954
00:49:02,860 --> 00:49:04,436
Yeah, and on the outside.

955
00:49:04,460 --> 00:49:05,734
Was it better than Mama's?

956
00:49:05,940 --> 00:49:07,214
No, not really.

957
00:49:07,380 --> 00:49:08,900
Segregation must go!

958
00:49:09,300 --> 00:49:12,770
Segregation must go!

959
00:49:12,940 --> 00:49:14,976
Segregation must go!

960
00:49:15,140 --> 00:49:16,937
Segregation must go!

961
00:49:21,220 --> 00:49:22,436
Don't pay attention
to all that.

962
00:49:22,460 --> 00:49:23,940
We're not part
of that trouble. Go on.

963
00:49:35,740 --> 00:49:37,935
"Mind. They must have done..."

964
00:49:42,300 --> 00:49:44,609
We don't want any trouble
in here.

965
00:49:45,300 --> 00:49:47,416
Oh, I'm not here
for any trouble, ma'am.

966
00:49:47,580 --> 00:49:48,649
What are you here for?

967
00:49:49,460 --> 00:49:50,460
A book.

968
00:49:50,620 --> 00:49:52,975
You have books
in the colored section.

969
00:49:54,300 --> 00:49:55,972
It doesn't have
what I'm looking for.

970
00:49:56,140 --> 00:49:58,290
That's just
the way it is.

971
00:50:02,460 --> 00:50:03,796
Go on, now.
You know better than this.

972
00:50:03,820 --> 00:50:06,129
Get your hands off my boys!
Don't touch them.

973
00:50:07,340 --> 00:50:09,092
You have a blessed day.

974
00:50:17,620 --> 00:50:20,976
Separate and equal
are two different things.

975
00:50:21,180 --> 00:50:23,694
Just 'cause it's the way,
doesn't make it right.

976
00:50:23,860 --> 00:50:24,975
Understand?

977
00:50:26,020 --> 00:50:27,020
Yes, Mama.

978
00:50:27,060 --> 00:50:29,335
You act right, you are right.

979
00:50:29,500 --> 00:50:31,138
That's for certain.

980
00:50:31,300 --> 00:50:32,300
Understand?

981
00:50:32,460 --> 00:50:33,495
Yes, Mama.

982
00:50:39,700 --> 00:50:41,372
You took that book, Mama?

983
00:50:41,540 --> 00:50:43,496
Son, I pay taxes.

984
00:50:43,700 --> 00:50:45,691
And taxes pay for everything
in that library.

985
00:50:45,860 --> 00:50:47,851
Can't take something
you already paid for.

986
00:50:52,540 --> 00:50:56,010
"Fortran is a new
and exciting language...

987
00:50:56,180 --> 00:50:59,536
"used by programmers
to communicate with computers.

988
00:50:59,700 --> 00:51:03,010
"It is exciting, as it is
the wave of the future."

989
00:51:04,020 --> 00:51:05,499
All right, everybody smile.

990
00:51:05,580 --> 00:51:07,140
- Everybody smile.
- Aw!

991
00:51:10,540 --> 00:51:11,540
Make a wish.
Make a wish.

992
00:51:11,700 --> 00:51:13,179
Blow. Try again.

993
00:51:13,340 --> 00:51:14,853
There you go.

994
00:51:16,100 --> 00:51:18,011
Leonard, you need
to get you a job now.

995
00:51:18,140 --> 00:51:19,140
Two jobs.

996
00:51:20,420 --> 00:51:21,916
Your baby is nine.
What are you gonna do?

997
00:51:21,940 --> 00:51:23,556
Thank you, man.
Yeah, you're just in time.

998
00:51:23,580 --> 00:51:24,899
Look at that.

999
00:51:25,060 --> 00:51:27,051
Look at what?
What a surprise.

1000
00:51:27,220 --> 00:51:28,733
Can't complain, man.

1001
00:51:29,780 --> 00:51:31,532
I'll say.

1002
00:51:31,740 --> 00:51:33,731
Howard must have invited him.
Mmm-hmm.

1003
00:51:34,260 --> 00:51:36,615
Let me go help them
with those flowers.

1004
00:51:46,300 --> 00:51:48,211
Walter, you behave yourself.

1005
00:51:48,380 --> 00:51:50,848
Now, you know,
I'm just... Yeah.

1006
00:51:52,740 --> 00:51:54,458
That's right, baby.
Shake it.

1007
00:51:55,420 --> 00:51:57,251
Yeah. There you go.

1008
00:52:00,900 --> 00:52:03,255
Good to see you.
Yes. Thank you.

1009
00:52:11,820 --> 00:52:13,936
I believe
I owe you an apology.

1010
00:52:16,260 --> 00:52:18,569
Well, was that it?

1011
00:52:19,300 --> 00:52:21,052
Can I make it
while we dance?

1012
00:52:33,100 --> 00:52:35,660
I'm afraid I simply misspoke
the other day, Mrs. Goble.

1013
00:52:37,940 --> 00:52:40,170
I've been away
for a long time.

1014
00:52:41,100 --> 00:52:43,933
I imagine I'm just
out of practice.

1015
00:52:44,620 --> 00:52:45,814
Mmm-hmm.

1016
00:52:46,420 --> 00:52:48,854
I was hoping you'd allow
me to start over.

1017
00:52:50,300 --> 00:52:51,300
Mmm-hmm.

1018
00:52:52,100 --> 00:52:53,658
See, the thing is...

1019
00:52:53,820 --> 00:52:55,740
I have an interest in
getting to know you better.

1020
00:52:56,340 --> 00:52:57,340
Mmm-hmm.

1021
00:52:59,340 --> 00:53:00,980
You're one
tough customer, huh?

1022
00:53:03,500 --> 00:53:05,218
You haven't said
you're sorry yet.

1023
00:53:05,380 --> 00:53:06,608
Right.

1024
00:53:06,780 --> 00:53:07,815
Of course.

1025
00:53:11,940 --> 00:53:13,817
I'm sorry, Katherine.

1026
00:53:14,020 --> 00:53:15,169
For what, Jim?

1027
00:53:15,980 --> 00:53:17,777
Underestimating you.

1028
00:53:18,660 --> 00:53:20,457
And any other woman
like you...

1029
00:53:22,620 --> 00:53:24,815
Though I don't imagine
there's many.

1030
00:53:26,860 --> 00:53:29,010
That's good practice,
right there.

1031
00:53:32,180 --> 00:53:33,796
We interrupt
this musical programming

1032
00:53:33,820 --> 00:53:35,538
with breaking news.

1033
00:53:35,700 --> 00:53:37,850
The Soviet news agency
has announced

1034
00:53:38,020 --> 00:53:40,056
that Russian cosmonaut,
Yuri Gagarin,

1035
00:53:40,180 --> 00:53:42,375
has become
the first man in space.

1036
00:53:42,540 --> 00:53:43,540
Gagarin completed

1037
00:53:43,660 --> 00:53:44,900
one full orbit
around the planet

1038
00:53:45,060 --> 00:53:47,210
in 108 minutes.

1039
00:53:47,380 --> 00:53:49,060
Stay tuned to this station
for more details

1040
00:53:49,220 --> 00:53:50,539
as they become available.

1041
00:53:51,860 --> 00:53:54,055
Guess that puts us
behind the curve.

1042
00:53:54,220 --> 00:53:55,540
The Vostok-1 rocket...

1043
00:53:55,580 --> 00:53:58,856
delivered Russian cosmonaut
Yuri Gagarin's 3KA capsule...

1044
00:53:59,020 --> 00:54:00,897
into orbit, at 6:07 UTC...

1045
00:54:01,700 --> 00:54:05,409
Reentering Russian airspace
at 7:55 UTC.

1046
00:54:05,580 --> 00:54:07,138
Proving conclusively that man

1047
00:54:07,220 --> 00:54:08,858
could survive
orbital space flight.

1048
00:54:09,260 --> 00:54:10,579
Gagarin was awarded

1049
00:54:10,740 --> 00:54:12,076
the Order of Lenin
and a Gold Star...

1050
00:54:12,100 --> 00:54:13,897
Well, they beat
the pants off us.

1051
00:54:14,060 --> 00:54:15,175
Let's go.

1052
00:54:15,340 --> 00:54:16,396
He is also conferred
the title...

1053
00:54:16,420 --> 00:54:17,660
Let's learn how to fly
to space.

1054
00:54:17,740 --> 00:54:19,935
"First Soviet Astronaut"...

1055
00:54:20,100 --> 00:54:22,898
and has been proclaimed
a national hero.

1056
00:54:23,060 --> 00:54:26,018
This is a day
of unprecedented triumph...

1057
00:54:26,180 --> 00:54:27,932
for the Russian
space program

1058
00:54:28,100 --> 00:54:30,330
and a crushing blow
for America

1059
00:54:30,420 --> 00:54:32,411
in the race for space.

1060
00:54:32,580 --> 00:54:34,411
I wanna thank everyone
for staying.

1061
00:54:35,580 --> 00:54:37,730
I know it's late.
And after what I just saw,

1062
00:54:37,900 --> 00:54:40,539
I'm sure everyone's probably
anxious to just go home.

1063
00:54:40,980 --> 00:54:43,289
Before we do, I just
have to ask a question.

1064
00:54:44,900 --> 00:54:46,777
The same one

1065
00:54:46,900 --> 00:54:48,716
I've been asking myself
all the way over here...

1066
00:54:48,740 --> 00:54:49,775
which is...

1067
00:54:51,660 --> 00:54:53,139
How the hell did
we find ourself

1068
00:54:53,260 --> 00:54:55,137
in second place
in a two-man race?

1069
00:54:55,940 --> 00:54:56,940
Anybody?

1070
00:54:57,940 --> 00:54:58,940
Paul?

1071
00:55:00,460 --> 00:55:01,940
And I think Glenn said it
pretty well.

1072
00:55:02,100 --> 00:55:03,180
They're just outworking us.

1073
00:55:03,260 --> 00:55:05,490
The reason
I have to think that

1074
00:55:05,660 --> 00:55:06,756
is because I refuse
to believe

1075
00:55:06,780 --> 00:55:08,338
that the Russians
are smarter than us

1076
00:55:08,500 --> 00:55:10,013
or that they have
more technology,

1077
00:55:10,100 --> 00:55:11,613
or that they care more.

1078
00:55:13,340 --> 00:55:15,171
But I don't know.
Is that possible?

1079
00:55:16,420 --> 00:55:17,694
Is it possible
that it actually

1080
00:55:17,780 --> 00:55:19,293
means more to them?

1081
00:55:20,820 --> 00:55:23,971
We're in the fight
of our lives, people.

1082
00:55:24,140 --> 00:55:26,449
We're not on
some epic joy ride.

1083
00:55:26,620 --> 00:55:28,292
I just saw seven faces

1084
00:55:28,620 --> 00:55:30,451
who aren't sure
that we can get there.

1085
00:55:34,980 --> 00:55:36,777
This is our problem.

1086
00:55:37,620 --> 00:55:39,133
And so as of right now

1087
00:55:41,100 --> 00:55:43,116
there's only two things you
need to know going forward.

1088
00:55:43,140 --> 00:55:44,653
One is staying here,
working late,

1089
00:55:44,780 --> 00:55:45,980
that's gonna be
a fact of life.

1090
00:55:47,180 --> 00:55:48,659
And two, don't expect
your paychecks

1091
00:55:48,780 --> 00:55:50,316
to reflect the extra time
it's gonna take

1092
00:55:50,340 --> 00:55:52,296
to catch up
and pass those bastards.

1093
00:55:54,220 --> 00:55:55,796
For those of you
who can't work that way,

1094
00:55:55,820 --> 00:55:58,175
I understand and thank you
for what you've done.

1095
00:55:59,340 --> 00:56:00,819
For everyone else...

1096
00:56:01,780 --> 00:56:04,055
I suggest
you call your wives

1097
00:56:04,220 --> 00:56:05,619
and tell them
how it's gonna be.

1098
00:56:06,060 --> 00:56:07,539
I'll start with mine.

1099
00:57:04,900 --> 00:57:07,095
Sam, turn it up.
Turn it up.

1100
00:57:07,260 --> 00:57:08,260
Yes, sir.

1101
00:57:10,540 --> 00:57:12,098
John.
Morning, sir.

1102
00:57:17,100 --> 00:57:20,092
7-5, 7-4, 7-3...

1103
00:57:27,300 --> 00:57:28,733
End of the day.

1104
00:57:34,740 --> 00:57:35,934
Okay, we're looking good.

1105
00:57:40,780 --> 00:57:43,089
Okay.

1106
00:57:52,820 --> 00:57:54,219
Sir, might be
the selector latch.

1107
00:57:54,340 --> 00:57:55,568
I'm taking a walk.

1108
00:57:55,740 --> 00:57:57,340
We're honored
to serve our country.

1109
00:57:57,500 --> 00:57:59,730
So we don't think
about danger.

1110
00:57:59,900 --> 00:58:01,891
We don't have time
to be scared.

1111
00:58:02,100 --> 00:58:03,931
We got a job to do.

1112
00:58:09,980 --> 00:58:12,130
Good morning.
Good morning.

1113
00:58:12,300 --> 00:58:14,416
Mrs. Jackson.

1114
00:58:14,580 --> 00:58:16,775
Colored seats are at the back
of the court room.

1115
00:58:16,940 --> 00:58:18,293
Thank you, ma'am.

1116
00:58:37,460 --> 00:58:39,337
So, which one of you
wants to go first?

1117
00:59:02,860 --> 00:59:07,331
The IBM 7090
data processing system.

1118
00:59:07,540 --> 00:59:09,690
It has the capability
of solving

1119
00:59:09,860 --> 00:59:12,852
over 24,000 multiplications

1120
00:59:14,180 --> 00:59:15,180
per second.

1121
00:59:15,380 --> 00:59:17,052
Holy Moses,
that's lightning fast.

1122
00:59:17,220 --> 00:59:18,420
They'll never
get that to work.

1123
00:59:18,700 --> 00:59:20,816
Oh, it'll run eventually.

1124
00:59:20,980 --> 00:59:23,020
And when it does, we have
to know how to program it.

1125
00:59:23,220 --> 00:59:24,620
Unless you'd rather be
out of a job.

1126
00:59:24,700 --> 00:59:26,179
No, ma'am.

1127
00:59:31,940 --> 00:59:33,339
Mr. Z...

1128
00:59:34,100 --> 00:59:35,852
I got a court date.

1129
00:59:39,900 --> 00:59:41,219
"The computer uses it

1130
00:59:41,340 --> 00:59:42,898
"as its high speed
storage unit,

1131
00:59:43,060 --> 00:59:45,096
"an information
holding device."

1132
00:59:45,220 --> 00:59:46,220
Hmm.

1133
00:59:47,020 --> 00:59:48,214
You have a brain.

1134
00:59:48,380 --> 00:59:49,893
That I can work with.

1135
00:59:53,580 --> 00:59:55,571
This is in the wrong spot.

1136
01:00:00,420 --> 01:00:02,251
Attagirl.

1137
01:00:04,540 --> 01:00:05,540
Ruth.

1138
01:00:05,860 --> 01:00:07,316
Yes, sir. Get me the
Cape on the line.

1139
01:00:07,340 --> 01:00:09,171
Shepard's trajectories
need to be updated.

1140
01:00:12,060 --> 01:00:13,095
Wow.

1141
01:00:14,940 --> 01:00:16,009
Where is she?

1142
01:00:20,140 --> 01:00:22,180
You and I are no
different from each other

1143
01:00:23,580 --> 01:00:25,332
Shut our eyes
when we slumber I see numbers

1144
01:00:26,980 --> 01:00:30,131
Black and white
we're computers, I am color

1145
01:00:30,740 --> 01:00:32,500
Don't act like
you was there when you wasn't

1146
01:00:38,420 --> 01:00:41,059
I don't want no free ride

1147
01:00:45,740 --> 01:00:48,379
Some nights I cry

1148
01:00:48,460 --> 01:00:50,496
'Cause I can
see the day comin'

1149
01:00:52,660 --> 01:00:54,651
Together we fly

1150
01:00:55,540 --> 01:00:58,054
Oh, but no more runnin'

1151
01:01:02,980 --> 01:01:04,618
No more runnin'

1152
01:01:14,620 --> 01:01:15,740
Where the hell
have you been?

1153
01:01:16,180 --> 01:01:18,375
Everywhere I look, you're not
where I need you to be.

1154
01:01:18,540 --> 01:01:19,689
It's not my imagination.

1155
01:01:19,860 --> 01:01:21,976
Now where the hell
do you go every day?

1156
01:01:24,860 --> 01:01:26,452
To the bathroom, sir.

1157
01:01:26,620 --> 01:01:27,814
To the bathroom?

1158
01:01:28,460 --> 01:01:29,609
To the damn bathroom.

1159
01:01:30,940 --> 01:01:32,168
For 40 minutes a day?

1160
01:01:35,220 --> 01:01:36,733
What do you do
in there?

1161
01:01:37,820 --> 01:01:40,380
We're T-minus zero here.
I put a lot of faith in you.

1162
01:01:42,580 --> 01:01:44,969
There's no bathroom
for me here.

1163
01:01:45,820 --> 01:01:47,556
What do you mean there is
no bathroom for you here?

1164
01:01:47,580 --> 01:01:49,935
There is no bathroom.

1165
01:01:50,100 --> 01:01:52,819
There are no colored
bathrooms in this building

1166
01:01:52,980 --> 01:01:54,936
or any building
outside the West Campus,

1167
01:01:55,060 --> 01:01:56,379
which is half a mile away.

1168
01:01:56,580 --> 01:01:57,580
Did you know that?

1169
01:01:59,260 --> 01:02:02,696
I have to walk to Timbuktu
just to relieve myself.

1170
01:02:02,860 --> 01:02:04,930
And I can't use
one of the handy bikes.

1171
01:02:05,100 --> 01:02:07,011
Picture that, Mr. Harrison.

1172
01:02:07,780 --> 01:02:08,849
My uniform...

1173
01:02:09,020 --> 01:02:11,739
Skirt below my knees,
my heels,

1174
01:02:11,820 --> 01:02:13,219
and a simple string of pearls.

1175
01:02:13,380 --> 01:02:15,052
Well, I don't own pearls.

1176
01:02:15,220 --> 01:02:17,017
Lord knows you don't pay
coloreds enough

1177
01:02:17,100 --> 01:02:18,613
to afford pearls!

1178
01:02:19,540 --> 01:02:23,613
And I work like a dog,
day and night,

1179
01:02:23,820 --> 01:02:25,890
living off of coffee
from a pot

1180
01:02:25,980 --> 01:02:27,459
none of you wanna touch!

1181
01:02:40,220 --> 01:02:42,780
So, excuse me

1182
01:02:42,940 --> 01:02:44,532
if I have to go
to the restroom

1183
01:02:44,620 --> 01:02:46,372
a few times a day.

1184
01:03:57,820 --> 01:03:59,219
There you have it.

1185
01:04:03,620 --> 01:04:04,973
No more colored restrooms.

1186
01:04:06,060 --> 01:04:08,290
No more white restrooms.

1187
01:04:08,460 --> 01:04:10,052
Just plain old toilets.

1188
01:04:11,340 --> 01:04:12,773
Go wherever
you damn well please.

1189
01:04:13,340 --> 01:04:14,978
Preferably closer
to your desk.

1190
01:04:22,700 --> 01:04:26,090
Here at NASA,
we all pee the same color.

1191
01:04:52,660 --> 01:04:54,298
Heard you was
fighting the flu.

1192
01:04:54,460 --> 01:04:56,178
Figured you could
use some soup.

1193
01:04:56,340 --> 01:04:57,773
Hot meal for the girls.

1194
01:04:58,780 --> 01:05:00,577
Come on in.

1195
01:05:06,700 --> 01:05:08,019
Excuse me.

1196
01:05:08,180 --> 01:05:10,614
Okay, ladies.
Let's say grace.

1197
01:05:11,660 --> 01:05:13,173
Bow your heads.

1198
01:05:17,060 --> 01:05:19,620
Dear Lord, thank you
for this meal.

1199
01:05:19,780 --> 01:05:21,816
We ask that you
bless this food

1200
01:05:21,900 --> 01:05:23,936
so that it may
bless our bodies.

1201
01:05:24,100 --> 01:05:26,056
In Jesus's name we pray.

1202
01:05:27,980 --> 01:05:29,618
Amen.
Amen.

1203
01:05:33,060 --> 01:05:35,972
It's a historic day,
here at Cape Canaveral.

1204
01:05:36,140 --> 01:05:37,459
And here's what we can expect.

1205
01:05:37,620 --> 01:05:40,498
Alan Shepard and Freedom 7
will be launched into space

1206
01:05:40,660 --> 01:05:43,333
at an altitude of about
116 miles an hour.

1207
01:05:43,420 --> 01:05:45,376
Dorothy, come on, you gonna miss it!
Oh, boy! Go.

1208
01:05:45,460 --> 01:05:46,716
- Come on, Dorothy.
- I'm coming.

1209
01:05:46,740 --> 01:05:48,537
then he will land
around 35 miles

1210
01:05:48,620 --> 01:05:49,700
off the coast of Florida...

1211
01:05:49,900 --> 01:05:51,015
where he'll be picked up

1212
01:05:51,180 --> 01:05:52,556
by the men
of the USS Lake Champlain...

1213
01:05:52,580 --> 01:05:53,580
Finally. Come over here.

1214
01:05:53,780 --> 01:05:55,611
who set out
for this historic purpose.

1215
01:05:57,060 --> 01:05:58,676
Freedom 7,
we're going to have to bleed off

1216
01:05:58,700 --> 01:06:01,419
some of the pressure
inside the liquid oxygen tank.

1217
01:06:01,500 --> 01:06:04,572
That should reduce the temperature
inside the capsule. Over.

1218
01:06:04,740 --> 01:06:06,298
Any day now, CAPCOM.

1219
01:06:06,500 --> 01:06:08,300
Fix your little problem
and light this candle.

1220
01:06:08,700 --> 01:06:10,019
Roger that, Freedom 7.

1221
01:06:10,180 --> 01:06:11,579
Stand by.

1222
01:06:11,740 --> 01:06:12,956
Temperature is returning
to normal.

1223
01:06:12,980 --> 01:06:14,936
Running one more
launch status check.

1224
01:06:15,100 --> 01:06:16,169
All systems now go.

1225
01:06:16,380 --> 01:06:17,859
Move to final countdown
sequence.

1226
01:06:18,020 --> 01:06:19,533
Moving to final
countdown sequence.

1227
01:06:19,620 --> 01:06:20,620
Roger that.

1228
01:06:21,460 --> 01:06:22,859
We're at T-minus 10...

1229
01:06:23,540 --> 01:06:24,609
nine...

1230
01:06:24,780 --> 01:06:25,895
eight...

1231
01:06:26,100 --> 01:06:27,374
seven...

1232
01:06:27,540 --> 01:06:28,734
six...

1233
01:06:28,940 --> 01:06:30,134
five...

1234
01:06:30,300 --> 01:06:31,574
four...

1235
01:06:31,740 --> 01:06:32,740
three...

1236
01:06:32,860 --> 01:06:34,054
two...

1237
01:06:34,220 --> 01:06:35,494
one...

1238
01:06:35,660 --> 01:06:36,888
zero.

1239
01:06:39,180 --> 01:06:40,408
We have ignition.

1240
01:06:41,100 --> 01:06:42,374
And we have lift off.

1241
01:06:43,340 --> 01:06:44,568
Get up there.

1242
01:06:44,740 --> 01:06:46,970
Lift off,
and the clock is started.

1243
01:06:50,780 --> 01:06:53,692
Fuel is go. 2.5G.

1244
01:06:53,860 --> 01:06:54,929
Get on up there.

1245
01:06:55,100 --> 01:06:56,294
- Come on!
- Lift off at

1246
01:06:56,380 --> 01:06:58,257
34 minutes after the hour.

1247
01:07:18,860 --> 01:07:21,055
Pitch 88.
Trajectory is good.

1248
01:07:23,940 --> 01:07:25,612
Yaw is okay.

1249
01:07:25,780 --> 01:07:27,577
Switching manual roll.

1250
01:07:27,740 --> 01:07:29,731
Yes!

1251
01:07:31,740 --> 01:07:33,696
For the eyes of the world

1252
01:07:33,860 --> 01:07:35,976
now look into space,

1253
01:07:36,140 --> 01:07:38,449
to the Moon
and to the planets beyond.

1254
01:07:38,540 --> 01:07:39,540
Yes!
We did it!

1255
01:07:39,620 --> 01:07:41,736
And we have vowed...

1256
01:07:41,900 --> 01:07:44,255
that we shall not
see it governed...

1257
01:07:44,420 --> 01:07:46,650
by a hostile flag
of conquest...

1258
01:07:47,340 --> 01:07:50,571
but by a banner
of freedom and peace.

1259
01:07:51,300 --> 01:07:53,939
We set sail on this new sea...

1260
01:07:54,100 --> 01:07:57,376
because there is new knowledge
to be gained...

1261
01:07:57,540 --> 01:07:59,417
and new rights to be won.

1262
01:07:59,900 --> 01:08:02,494
We choose to go to the Moon
in this decade

1263
01:08:02,700 --> 01:08:04,258
and do the other things...

1264
01:08:04,420 --> 01:08:06,092
not because they are easy...

1265
01:08:06,260 --> 01:08:08,057
but because they are hard.

1266
01:08:08,900 --> 01:08:10,697
Suppose we should all
thank President Kennedy

1267
01:08:10,860 --> 01:08:12,737
for the continued
job security.

1268
01:08:16,700 --> 01:08:18,213
Uh, Gus Grissom's up next.

1269
01:08:18,660 --> 01:08:20,890
Another suborbital flight
with a Redstone.

1270
01:08:21,740 --> 01:08:22,809
It's our last shot

1271
01:08:22,900 --> 01:08:24,299
before we strap Glenn
to the Atlas

1272
01:08:25,420 --> 01:08:26,899
and pray we can bring him
back down.

1273
01:08:27,100 --> 01:08:28,579
Yes, and I imagine
he'd like us

1274
01:08:28,660 --> 01:08:30,412
to have the math
worked out beforehand.

1275
01:08:32,260 --> 01:08:34,012
Good work, gentlemen.

1276
01:08:34,180 --> 01:08:36,296
Go have dinner
with your kids

1277
01:08:36,460 --> 01:08:38,018
and let's get
back to work.

1278
01:08:50,260 --> 01:08:54,173
Look what you've done to me

1279
01:08:54,620 --> 01:08:59,091
Make me behave like
I wouldn't ever

1280
01:08:59,460 --> 01:09:01,451
I know you're the one for me

1281
01:09:03,340 --> 01:09:07,174
Your essence is the ink
in the word "forever"

1282
01:09:10,660 --> 01:09:13,128
I think it's high time that
I kissed you, Katherine.

1283
01:09:14,060 --> 01:09:16,494
Oh, and why is that?

1284
01:09:18,620 --> 01:09:21,612
Figured you attracted to me,
same as I to you.

1285
01:09:23,060 --> 01:09:24,891
Is that right?
Mmm-hmm.

1286
01:09:25,700 --> 01:09:28,168
Or you would have told me to
get going a long time ago.

1287
01:09:42,660 --> 01:09:45,174
Haven't kissed a man
in a long time.

1288
01:09:46,260 --> 01:09:47,659
Almost forgot how to.

1289
01:10:01,140 --> 01:10:03,608
The FBI
has arrested four white men

1290
01:10:03,700 --> 01:10:05,133
accused of throwing
a fire bomb

1291
01:10:05,300 --> 01:10:06,653
into a Freedom Rider bus

1292
01:10:06,780 --> 01:10:08,850
outside of Anniston,
Alabama...

1293
01:10:09,020 --> 01:10:10,540
- Hi, babies.
- The bus filled rapidly

1294
01:10:10,660 --> 01:10:11,836
Hi, Mama.
with black smoke.

1295
01:10:11,860 --> 01:10:13,088
We all hit the floor.

1296
01:10:13,260 --> 01:10:15,490
All of us realized
the bus was on fire...

1297
01:10:15,660 --> 01:10:17,730
and had to go out
into the mob.

1298
01:10:17,900 --> 01:10:19,116
The kids don't need
to be watching this.

1299
01:10:19,140 --> 01:10:20,459
They need to see this.

1300
01:10:20,620 --> 01:10:22,180
When we got off the bus
in Birmingham...

1301
01:10:22,340 --> 01:10:23,693
Everybody needs to see this.

1302
01:10:23,860 --> 01:10:25,612
took me and forced me
out of the door...

1303
01:10:25,780 --> 01:10:26,929
and threw me into the crowd.

1304
01:10:27,100 --> 01:10:29,694
And then I was beaten by one
big guy and several others.

1305
01:10:29,860 --> 01:10:33,011
We think we're rendering
a great service to our nation.

1306
01:10:33,220 --> 01:10:35,893
For this is not a struggle
for ourselves alone.

1307
01:10:36,100 --> 01:10:38,933
It is a struggle
to save the soul of America.

1308
01:10:39,100 --> 01:10:40,215
Mary Jackson.

1309
01:10:40,780 --> 01:10:43,897
Petition to attend courses
at Hampton High School.

1310
01:10:47,340 --> 01:10:48,739
Good morning, Your Honor.

1311
01:10:53,340 --> 01:10:55,934
Hampton High School is
a white school, Mrs. Jackson.

1312
01:10:57,180 --> 01:10:59,330
Yes, Your Honor.
I'm aware of that.

1313
01:10:59,540 --> 01:11:01,212
Virginia,
still a segregated state.

1314
01:11:01,420 --> 01:11:03,297
Regardless of what
the federal government says,

1315
01:11:03,500 --> 01:11:05,650
regardless of what
the Supreme Court says,

1316
01:11:05,820 --> 01:11:07,617
our law is the law.

1317
01:11:08,420 --> 01:11:10,615
Your Honor, if I may.

1318
01:11:10,780 --> 01:11:12,452
I believe there are
special circumstances

1319
01:11:12,540 --> 01:11:13,540
to be considered.

1320
01:11:13,700 --> 01:11:15,338
What would warrant
a colored woman

1321
01:11:15,420 --> 01:11:16,420
attending a white school?

1322
01:11:18,340 --> 01:11:20,092
May I approach
your bench, sir?

1323
01:11:33,220 --> 01:11:34,220
Your Honor...

1324
01:11:34,740 --> 01:11:36,458
you of all people
should understand

1325
01:11:36,580 --> 01:11:38,013
the importance of being first.

1326
01:11:38,820 --> 01:11:40,458
How's that, Mrs. Jackson?

1327
01:11:41,180 --> 01:11:43,250
You were the first
in your family

1328
01:11:43,340 --> 01:11:45,217
to serve in the Armed Forces.

1329
01:11:45,420 --> 01:11:46,569
U.S. Navy.

1330
01:11:46,740 --> 01:11:49,049
The first
to attend university.

1331
01:11:49,260 --> 01:11:50,739
George Mason.

1332
01:11:50,900 --> 01:11:53,095
And the first state judge
to be recommissioned

1333
01:11:53,300 --> 01:11:55,609
by three consecutive
governors.

1334
01:11:55,780 --> 01:11:57,452
You've done some research.

1335
01:11:57,900 --> 01:11:59,219
Yes, sir.

1336
01:11:59,660 --> 01:12:00,979
What's the point?

1337
01:12:01,140 --> 01:12:02,459
The point is, Your Honor...

1338
01:12:02,620 --> 01:12:04,815
no Negro woman
in the state of Virginia...

1339
01:12:05,020 --> 01:12:07,329
has ever attended
an all-white high school.

1340
01:12:07,500 --> 01:12:08,500
It's unheard of.

1341
01:12:08,660 --> 01:12:10,252
Yeah. Unheard of.

1342
01:12:11,060 --> 01:12:13,620
And before Alan Shepard
sat on top of a rocket,

1343
01:12:13,820 --> 01:12:15,890
no other American
had ever touched space.

1344
01:12:16,420 --> 01:12:18,376
And now, he will forever
be remembered

1345
01:12:18,580 --> 01:12:20,969
as the U.S. Navy man
from New Hampshire,

1346
01:12:21,140 --> 01:12:23,176
the first to touch the stars.

1347
01:12:24,900 --> 01:12:26,049
And I, sir...

1348
01:12:26,220 --> 01:12:28,734
I plan on being
an engineer at NASA,

1349
01:12:28,900 --> 01:12:30,811
but I can't do that
without taking them classes

1350
01:12:30,980 --> 01:12:32,652
at that all-white high school.

1351
01:12:33,580 --> 01:12:36,140
And I can't change
the color of my skin.

1352
01:12:36,940 --> 01:12:40,455
So I have no choice
but to be the first.

1353
01:12:41,380 --> 01:12:43,211
Which I can't do
without you, sir.

1354
01:12:44,460 --> 01:12:45,460
Your Honor...

1355
01:12:45,500 --> 01:12:48,014
out of all the cases
you're gonna hear today...

1356
01:12:48,180 --> 01:12:50,694
which one is gonna matter
100 years from now?

1357
01:12:51,540 --> 01:12:54,293
Which one is gonna
make you the first?

1358
01:12:57,260 --> 01:12:58,260
Hmm.

1359
01:13:05,460 --> 01:13:07,132
Only the night classes...

1360
01:13:08,140 --> 01:13:09,573
Mrs. Jackson.

1361
01:13:16,620 --> 01:13:19,134
Yes, yes, yes!

1362
01:13:19,300 --> 01:13:20,369
Yes!

1363
01:13:21,660 --> 01:13:24,128
Oh, my God.
I cannot believe.

1364
01:13:48,660 --> 01:13:49,716
How late did he say
he was gonna be?

1365
01:13:49,740 --> 01:13:51,636
Excuse me.
No more than five minutes, sir.

1366
01:13:51,660 --> 01:13:53,139
Gus Grissom's
coordinates.

1367
01:13:53,340 --> 01:13:56,252
Uh, I'd like to get a jump
on John Glenn's trajectory.

1368
01:13:57,700 --> 01:13:59,260
Do you have any idea
what you're asking?

1369
01:13:59,300 --> 01:14:02,497
An orbital launch with an Atlas
rocket is going to take time.

1370
01:14:02,700 --> 01:14:04,452
Is there a problem?

1371
01:14:05,700 --> 01:14:06,974
Mr. Harrison...

1372
01:14:07,820 --> 01:14:09,378
I was wondering.

1373
01:14:09,540 --> 01:14:11,337
Uh-huh. I've been
wondering my whole life,

1374
01:14:11,420 --> 01:14:13,058
so you just
spit it out.

1375
01:14:13,220 --> 01:14:15,131
Well, sir...

1376
01:14:17,220 --> 01:14:20,610
I would like to get a jump
on John Glenn's trajectory.

1377
01:14:20,780 --> 01:14:21,836
This isn't about
plugging in numbers,

1378
01:14:21,860 --> 01:14:23,060
it's about inventing the math.

1379
01:14:23,220 --> 01:14:24,916
And I think you and I
talked about that, right?

1380
01:14:24,940 --> 01:14:25,940
It doesn't exist.

1381
01:14:26,100 --> 01:14:27,100
I can do it, sir.

1382
01:14:27,260 --> 01:14:28,693
Do you have any idea
how exacting

1383
01:14:28,780 --> 01:14:30,293
these calculations have to be?

1384
01:14:30,500 --> 01:14:32,889
It's like shooting a sawed-off
shotgun from a thousand feet

1385
01:14:33,020 --> 01:14:35,756
and getting that one BB through a
hole so tiny, you can't even see it.

1386
01:14:35,780 --> 01:14:36,796
Okay, let me see
what you've got.

1387
01:14:36,820 --> 01:14:37,900
I'm an excellent shot, sir.

1388
01:14:38,500 --> 01:14:40,536
How have the
Grissom numbers been?

1389
01:14:41,140 --> 01:14:42,619
They've been spot on.

1390
01:14:45,300 --> 01:14:46,528
Give Glenn's orbit a go.

1391
01:14:48,100 --> 01:14:49,756
But you run it all through
Stafford, you understand?

1392
01:14:49,780 --> 01:14:50,780
Yes, sir.

1393
01:14:51,340 --> 01:14:52,409
Thank you.

1394
01:14:56,620 --> 01:14:58,338
Computers don't
author reports.

1395
01:15:05,300 --> 01:15:07,734
CAPCOM,
this is Liberty Bell 7.

1396
01:15:07,820 --> 01:15:08,820
Loud and clear.

1397
01:15:11,020 --> 01:15:12,897
Okay, it's a nice
ride up to now.

1398
01:15:13,060 --> 01:15:14,060
Roger.

1399
01:15:14,660 --> 01:15:16,776
Liberty Bell 7,
this is Hook 1 approaching.

1400
01:15:16,860 --> 01:15:17,860
Ready to hook on. Over.

1401
01:15:18,020 --> 01:15:20,250
I read you loud
and clear. Over.

1402
01:15:21,180 --> 01:15:22,420
The hatch is blown,
CAPCOM.

1403
01:15:22,460 --> 01:15:25,657
The Liberty Bell 7
capsule is taking on water.

1404
01:15:25,820 --> 01:15:27,731
Gus Grissom
is out of the capsule.

1405
01:15:27,900 --> 01:15:30,414
Rescuers are now going
to pull him

1406
01:15:30,500 --> 01:15:31,500
from the ocean waves.

1407
01:15:31,660 --> 01:15:35,733
Unfortunately, the Liberty
Bell 7 capsule is lost.

1408
01:15:35,940 --> 01:15:36,940
Mama.

1409
01:15:38,860 --> 01:15:39,860
I can't, I can't.
Mary.

1410
01:15:47,140 --> 01:15:48,196
Mr. Harrison,

1411
01:15:48,220 --> 01:15:49,540
taxpayer money
sank into the ocean

1412
01:15:49,580 --> 01:15:50,854
along with your capsule.

1413
01:15:51,020 --> 01:15:52,020
So what makes you think

1414
01:15:52,100 --> 01:15:53,897
you can bring
John Glenn home safely?

1415
01:15:54,060 --> 01:15:55,060
Let me say first...

1416
01:15:55,140 --> 01:15:56,540
discovery is never
just for the sake

1417
01:15:56,580 --> 01:15:57,620
of discovery, gentlemen...

1418
01:15:57,740 --> 01:15:59,810
but for the sake
of human survival.

1419
01:16:00,420 --> 01:16:02,695
And it will always
come with a risk.

1420
01:16:04,300 --> 01:16:06,370
Whoever gets there first
will make the rules.

1421
01:16:06,540 --> 01:16:08,531
That's been true
of every civilization.

1422
01:16:09,300 --> 01:16:10,699
And so, I think
the bigger question

1423
01:16:10,820 --> 01:16:12,299
for this body
to consider is...

1424
01:16:12,460 --> 01:16:16,055
who do you want calling
the shots in space?

1425
01:16:16,780 --> 01:16:18,691
We have to know
what's out there, Senator.

1426
01:16:19,540 --> 01:16:20,939
We have to touch the stars,

1427
01:16:21,020 --> 01:16:23,329
if only to ensure
our own survival.

1428
01:16:23,500 --> 01:16:25,331
And only a man can do that.

1429
01:16:27,220 --> 01:16:28,619
We'll get
John Glenn home safely

1430
01:16:28,700 --> 01:16:30,179
because we have to.

1431
01:16:31,180 --> 01:16:33,375
Because he has to tell us
what he saw.

1432
01:16:36,940 --> 01:16:38,931
The Redstone rocket
went straight up.

1433
01:16:39,620 --> 01:16:41,372
But the capsule
didn't have enough speed

1434
01:16:41,460 --> 01:16:42,980
to go into orbit,
so it came back down.

1435
01:16:43,860 --> 01:16:47,170
Essentially a triangle.
Earth, sub-orbit, Earth.

1436
01:16:47,340 --> 01:16:48,932
That math was known.

1437
01:16:49,140 --> 01:16:51,608
That took Shepard,
took Grissom.

1438
01:16:52,460 --> 01:16:53,973
That cannot take Glenn.

1439
01:16:54,940 --> 01:16:56,532
Now, the Atlas rocket...

1440
01:16:57,340 --> 01:16:59,137
that can push us into orbit.

1441
01:16:59,300 --> 01:17:02,417
Goes up, delivers the capsule
into an elliptical orbit.

1442
01:17:03,300 --> 01:17:05,018
Earth's gravity
keeps pulling at it

1443
01:17:05,180 --> 01:17:07,819
but it's going so fast,
it keeps missing the Earth.

1444
01:17:07,980 --> 01:17:09,732
That's how it stays in orbit.

1445
01:17:09,900 --> 01:17:12,175
Now, getting it back down...

1446
01:17:13,020 --> 01:17:14,612
that's the math
we don't know.

1447
01:17:16,700 --> 01:17:17,700
Yes, Katherine.

1448
01:17:17,860 --> 01:17:20,533
So the capsule will spin
around the Earth forever

1449
01:17:20,700 --> 01:17:22,611
because there's nothing
to slow it down?

1450
01:17:23,340 --> 01:17:24,340
That's right.

1451
01:17:24,500 --> 01:17:27,458
Slowing it down at precisely
the right moment,

1452
01:17:27,620 --> 01:17:29,212
at precisely
the right amount,

1453
01:17:29,380 --> 01:17:30,380
that's the task.

1454
01:17:33,540 --> 01:17:34,540
Yes, Katherine.

1455
01:17:34,700 --> 01:17:38,136
So it needs to move
from an elliptical orbit...

1456
01:17:39,660 --> 01:17:41,730
to a parabolic orbit.

1457
01:17:41,940 --> 01:17:42,940
Yes.

1458
01:17:43,780 --> 01:17:45,771
That's the "Go/No-go."

1459
01:17:45,940 --> 01:17:47,896
Now at this point,
it's a pin head.

1460
01:17:48,540 --> 01:17:50,053
We bring him in too soon...

1461
01:17:50,220 --> 01:17:51,858
He burns up
on reentry.

1462
01:17:52,020 --> 01:17:53,248
That's right.

1463
01:17:53,420 --> 01:17:54,739
We bring him in
too late...

1464
01:17:54,900 --> 01:17:56,492
he's pushed
out of Earth's gravity.

1465
01:17:56,660 --> 01:17:59,970
And any changes to mass,
weight, speed, time...

1466
01:18:00,140 --> 01:18:03,496
distance, friction,
or a puff of wind...

1467
01:18:04,420 --> 01:18:06,456
would alter the "Go/No-go."

1468
01:18:06,620 --> 01:18:09,578
And we start
our calculations over.

1469
01:18:09,980 --> 01:18:10,980
Yes.

1470
01:18:11,740 --> 01:18:16,495
So we need to be able to
choose this reentry point.

1471
01:18:16,660 --> 01:18:19,652
Now this "Go/No-go,"
this has to be exact.

1472
01:18:19,820 --> 01:18:20,855
Sam.

1473
01:18:21,500 --> 01:18:23,616
These are the latest
Redstone numbers

1474
01:18:23,700 --> 01:18:25,019
in current capsule data.

1475
01:18:25,180 --> 01:18:26,738
Obviously, we know
the launch spot.

1476
01:18:26,820 --> 01:18:27,820
Thanks.

1477
01:18:27,900 --> 01:18:29,652
A Pentagon briefing
should illuminate

1478
01:18:29,740 --> 01:18:31,458
where the Navy
needs the recovery zone.

1479
01:18:31,660 --> 01:18:33,491
Then we work backwards
from there.

1480
01:18:34,260 --> 01:18:37,775
And the rest is on us,
so let's get to work.

1481
01:18:38,500 --> 01:18:39,500
Uh, Mr. Stafford.

1482
01:18:39,820 --> 01:18:40,820
What, Katherine?

1483
01:18:40,860 --> 01:18:42,213
If I could
attend the briefings,

1484
01:18:42,300 --> 01:18:44,450
I'd be more useful
to the project.

1485
01:18:44,620 --> 01:18:46,451
Pentagon briefings
are closed door.

1486
01:18:46,620 --> 01:18:49,453
Yes, but if we don't
have the information

1487
01:18:49,540 --> 01:18:50,859
of the changes...

1488
01:18:51,020 --> 01:18:52,020
we can't keep up.

1489
01:18:52,220 --> 01:18:53,516
I need those changes
as they occur.

1490
01:18:53,540 --> 01:18:54,660
As you said,
it's a pin head.

1491
01:18:54,820 --> 01:18:56,572
Katherine, that's the job.

1492
01:18:56,740 --> 01:18:58,298
You asked for this assignment,

1493
01:18:58,380 --> 01:19:00,450
so just calculate
with what you have.

1494
01:19:00,620 --> 01:19:02,576
Or we'll find
someone who can.

1495
01:19:09,300 --> 01:19:10,335
Okay.

1496
01:19:23,100 --> 01:19:24,977
Attagirl.

1497
01:19:25,580 --> 01:19:27,650
What the hell are you doing?
You can't be in here.

1498
01:19:27,820 --> 01:19:28,855
Who are you?

1499
01:19:29,020 --> 01:19:30,931
I'm with
the West Computing Group.

1500
01:19:32,180 --> 01:19:33,408
Dorothy Vaughan, sir.

1501
01:19:33,580 --> 01:19:35,298
This is a very delicate
piece of equipment.

1502
01:19:35,460 --> 01:19:37,236
I'm sorry, sir.
I'm just trying to be helpful.

1503
01:19:37,260 --> 01:19:39,490
Uh-huh.
Bill, we've got numbers.

1504
01:19:41,940 --> 01:19:43,578
What kind of numbers?

1505
01:19:47,700 --> 01:19:49,053
Well, I'll be.

1506
01:19:50,140 --> 01:19:51,209
What's your name again?

1507
01:19:52,140 --> 01:19:53,334
Dorothy Vaughan.

1508
01:19:54,540 --> 01:19:55,973
Dorothy Vaughan.

1509
01:20:03,260 --> 01:20:05,694
Sir, the parameters
for Friendship 7.

1510
01:20:06,100 --> 01:20:07,453
Oh, this is all moot.

1511
01:20:07,620 --> 01:20:09,451
We're altering the
window on the capsule.

1512
01:20:09,620 --> 01:20:11,100
When did this happen?
Six minutes ago.

1513
01:20:11,300 --> 01:20:12,699
The math is changing.
Start over.

1514
01:20:12,860 --> 01:20:16,136
Sir, if I could attend the briefings,
I could stay current...

1515
01:20:16,300 --> 01:20:17,779
Katherine, we have
been through this.

1516
01:20:17,940 --> 01:20:18,940
It is not possible.

1517
01:20:19,100 --> 01:20:20,676
There is no protocol
for women attending.

1518
01:20:20,700 --> 01:20:21,849
There's no protocol
for a man

1519
01:20:21,980 --> 01:20:23,220
circling the Earth either, sir.

1520
01:20:23,260 --> 01:20:25,899
Okay. That is just
the way things are.

1521
01:21:00,140 --> 01:21:01,653
Colonel Glenn's
launch coordinates,

1522
01:21:01,740 --> 01:21:03,220
accounting for
the window change, sir.

1523
01:21:03,340 --> 01:21:04,568
I have told you this.

1524
01:21:04,660 --> 01:21:06,180
Computers don't
author reports. Fix it.

1525
01:21:06,300 --> 01:21:08,416
Those are my calculations.
My name should be on it.

1526
01:21:08,580 --> 01:21:10,491
That is not the way
this works.

1527
01:21:10,660 --> 01:21:13,015
Paul. What's
happening here?

1528
01:21:13,180 --> 01:21:15,330
Mr. Harrison, I would like
to attend today's briefing.

1529
01:21:15,500 --> 01:21:16,569
And why is that?

1530
01:21:16,780 --> 01:21:19,419
Sir, the data changes so fast.
The capsule changes.

1531
01:21:19,620 --> 01:21:21,019
The weight and the landing zones

1532
01:21:21,100 --> 01:21:22,613
are all changing, every day.

1533
01:21:22,780 --> 01:21:25,010
I do my work, you attend
these briefings,

1534
01:21:25,100 --> 01:21:26,100
I have to start over.

1535
01:21:26,660 --> 01:21:28,571
Colonel Glenn launches
in a few weeks.

1536
01:21:29,140 --> 01:21:30,660
We don't have the math
figured out yet.

1537
01:21:31,660 --> 01:21:33,139
Why is it she can't attend?

1538
01:21:33,340 --> 01:21:34,516
Because she doesn't
have clearance, Al.

1539
01:21:34,540 --> 01:21:35,973
I cannot do
my work effectively

1540
01:21:36,180 --> 01:21:37,420
if I do not have
all of the data

1541
01:21:37,500 --> 01:21:39,695
and all of the information
as soon as it's available.

1542
01:21:39,860 --> 01:21:41,516
I need to be in that room,
hearing what you hear.

1543
01:21:41,540 --> 01:21:43,212
Pentagon briefings
are not for civilians.

1544
01:21:43,300 --> 01:21:44,476
It requires
the highest clearance.

1545
01:21:44,500 --> 01:21:45,516
I feel like
I'm the best person

1546
01:21:45,540 --> 01:21:46,700
to present my calculations...

1547
01:21:46,780 --> 01:21:48,796
You're not gonna let this go, are you?
No, I am not.

1548
01:21:48,820 --> 01:21:50,776
And she is a woman.
There is no protocol

1549
01:21:50,900 --> 01:21:51,996
for a woman
attending these meetings.

1550
01:21:52,020 --> 01:21:53,339
Okay, I get that part, Paul.

1551
01:21:56,380 --> 01:21:57,893
But within these walls,

1552
01:21:58,900 --> 01:22:00,379
who makes the rules?

1553
01:22:00,540 --> 01:22:02,053
You, sir. You are the boss.

1554
01:22:02,220 --> 01:22:04,859
You just have
to act like one. Sir.

1555
01:22:14,220 --> 01:22:15,369
You keep quiet.

1556
01:22:16,260 --> 01:22:17,329
Thank you.

1557
01:22:18,260 --> 01:22:19,329
Good morning.

1558
01:22:20,260 --> 01:22:21,488
Gentlemen.

1559
01:22:30,500 --> 01:22:31,500
This is Katherine Goble

1560
01:22:31,580 --> 01:22:33,935
with our Trajectory
and Launch Window division.

1561
01:22:34,900 --> 01:22:37,255
Her work is pertinent
to today's proceedings.

1562
01:22:38,500 --> 01:22:39,500
Come on.

1563
01:22:40,740 --> 01:22:41,934
Wanna get her a chair?

1564
01:22:43,780 --> 01:22:44,916
We have a
confirmed launch window...

1565
01:22:44,940 --> 01:22:46,260
Get her a chair, please.
Yes, sir.

1566
01:22:46,340 --> 01:22:47,396
We have a
confirmed launch window

1567
01:22:47,420 --> 01:22:48,535
for Friendship 7.

1568
01:22:48,700 --> 01:22:49,860
Let's discuss a landing zone.

1569
01:22:50,420 --> 01:22:52,729
The Navy needs
a singular landing zone.

1570
01:22:52,900 --> 01:22:55,175
20 miles square is what we
can service for retrieval.

1571
01:22:55,380 --> 01:22:56,380
Outside of that

1572
01:22:56,540 --> 01:22:58,258
we risk the capsule's recovery.

1573
01:22:58,420 --> 01:23:00,695
We'd like three possible
recovery areas.

1574
01:23:00,860 --> 01:23:02,220
We can't cover
half the damn ocean.

1575
01:23:02,900 --> 01:23:04,015
With all due respect,

1576
01:23:04,140 --> 01:23:05,858
our capsule's being
altered daily.

1577
01:23:06,780 --> 01:23:09,055
We're orbiting the Earth
at what speed now?

1578
01:23:10,060 --> 01:23:11,060
Uh...

1579
01:23:15,220 --> 01:23:17,814
17,544 miles per hour...

1580
01:23:17,980 --> 01:23:19,811
at the time the rocket
delivers the capsule

1581
01:23:19,940 --> 01:23:21,134
into low space orbit.

1582
01:23:24,740 --> 01:23:26,420
Well, that's one hell
of a speeding ticket.

1583
01:23:28,940 --> 01:23:29,940
Okay.

1584
01:23:29,980 --> 01:23:31,413
So we have
the vehicle's speed,

1585
01:23:31,500 --> 01:23:32,615
the launch window...

1586
01:23:32,780 --> 01:23:34,418
and for argument's sake,
the landing zone

1587
01:23:34,500 --> 01:23:35,774
is the Bahamas.

1588
01:23:35,940 --> 01:23:37,658
Should be enough
to figure the "Go/No-go"?

1589
01:23:37,820 --> 01:23:39,299
Yeah, in theory, sir.

1590
01:23:39,460 --> 01:23:41,052
We need to be past
theory at this point.

1591
01:23:41,260 --> 01:23:42,898
We'll be able to
calculate a "Go/No-go"

1592
01:23:42,980 --> 01:23:44,493
with that information.

1593
01:23:44,660 --> 01:23:46,571
When exactly
is that gonna happen?

1594
01:23:57,020 --> 01:23:58,020
Katherine.

1595
01:24:00,860 --> 01:24:02,532
Have a go at it.

1596
01:24:27,660 --> 01:24:32,688
The "Go" point for re-entry
is 2,990 miles

1597
01:24:34,060 --> 01:24:36,699
from where we want
Colonel Glenn to land.

1598
01:24:36,900 --> 01:24:39,130
If we assume
that's the Bahamas...

1599
01:24:40,060 --> 01:24:44,770
at 17,544 miles per hour...

1600
01:24:45,300 --> 01:24:46,528
upon re-entry...

1601
01:24:47,300 --> 01:24:49,052
370 feet...

1602
01:24:49,660 --> 01:24:51,378
at a descent angle...

1603
01:24:51,580 --> 01:24:54,890
of 46.56 degrees.

1604
01:24:55,540 --> 01:24:56,540
Distance...

1605
01:24:57,180 --> 01:25:00,695
velocity squared, sine...

1606
01:25:00,860 --> 01:25:03,055
gravity squared.

1607
01:25:05,020 --> 01:25:07,614
Sine, 32 feet.

1608
01:25:08,500 --> 01:25:11,333
And the distance would be...

1609
01:25:11,500 --> 01:25:17,257
20,530,372 feet...

1610
01:25:18,740 --> 01:25:23,097
or 2,990 miles...

1611
01:25:24,020 --> 01:25:28,935
or 46.33 degrees.

1612
01:25:31,220 --> 01:25:33,688
Okay, so that puts
your landing zone

1613
01:25:33,780 --> 01:25:37,409
at 5.0667 degrees North...

1614
01:25:37,580 --> 01:25:40,572
77.3333 degrees West.

1615
01:25:41,900 --> 01:25:43,572
Which is here.

1616
01:25:46,540 --> 01:25:48,132
Right here.

1617
01:25:48,300 --> 01:25:50,416
Give or take
20 square miles.

1618
01:25:55,380 --> 01:25:56,574
I like her numbers.

1619
01:25:58,060 --> 01:25:59,254
Thank you.

1620
01:26:00,300 --> 01:26:01,892
That, of course,
is assuming

1621
01:26:01,980 --> 01:26:04,619
the capsule hits
the re-entry point exactly.

1622
01:26:05,220 --> 01:26:07,256
How do we ensure that?

1623
01:26:07,980 --> 01:26:09,971
That's the math we don't
have yet, gentlemen.

1624
01:26:10,460 --> 01:26:11,893
We're working on it.

1625
01:26:14,140 --> 01:26:15,289
Katherine.

1626
01:26:19,140 --> 01:26:21,436
What's it gonna take to make
this thing worth the price tag?

1627
01:26:21,460 --> 01:26:23,815
We're just getting up
to speed here, Mr. Harrison.

1628
01:26:23,940 --> 01:26:24,975
I need more manpower.

1629
01:26:25,140 --> 01:26:26,937
I need programmers,
folks to feed the cards.

1630
01:26:27,100 --> 01:26:28,579
Get them,
for crying out loud.

1631
01:26:28,660 --> 01:26:29,660
Okay.

1632
01:26:29,820 --> 01:26:31,776
You're the IBM man, right?
Yes, sir.

1633
01:26:31,940 --> 01:26:33,771
Go pull them out of the sky
if you have to.

1634
01:26:33,940 --> 01:26:35,636
Let's get ahead of this thing
or I'm not paying you.

1635
01:26:35,660 --> 01:26:36,888
Understood.

1636
01:26:40,180 --> 01:26:42,250
I got that one,
I got that one.

1637
01:26:43,660 --> 01:26:45,412
I'm not paying any of you.

1638
01:26:55,020 --> 01:26:56,020
Me?

1639
01:26:56,180 --> 01:26:57,818
Temporarily, yes.

1640
01:26:57,980 --> 01:27:00,096
We need the IBM
for Glenn's launch.

1641
01:27:00,260 --> 01:27:02,220
The lead engineer says
you're good with the cards,

1642
01:27:02,260 --> 01:27:03,579
programming and such.

1643
01:27:04,140 --> 01:27:05,812
What about the girls here?

1644
01:27:05,980 --> 01:27:08,448
Human computers can't
calculate an orbital flight

1645
01:27:08,540 --> 01:27:09,939
in the time we have.

1646
01:27:10,100 --> 01:27:11,533
They'll stay put for now.

1647
01:27:11,700 --> 01:27:13,372
What about after now?

1648
01:27:14,140 --> 01:27:16,608
After Glenn's launch,

1649
01:27:16,700 --> 01:27:19,009
NASA's dissolving
the computing groups.

1650
01:27:21,380 --> 01:27:23,291
I'm not accepting reassignment

1651
01:27:23,380 --> 01:27:25,371
unless I bring my
ladies with me.

1652
01:27:26,180 --> 01:27:27,295
Excuse me?

1653
01:27:27,460 --> 01:27:29,974
We're gonna need a lot of
manpower to program that beast.

1654
01:27:30,140 --> 01:27:31,368
I can't do it alone.

1655
01:27:31,540 --> 01:27:34,691
My gals are ready.
They can do the work.

1656
01:27:38,300 --> 01:27:39,369
Ladies.

1657
01:27:41,820 --> 01:27:43,412
We've been reassigned.

1658
01:27:44,820 --> 01:27:45,969
Leave your calculators.

1659
01:27:46,060 --> 01:27:47,573
You won't need them
where we're going.

1660
01:28:47,980 --> 01:28:49,811
Welcome, ladies.

1661
01:28:59,980 --> 01:29:02,130
You know
what your job is, Paul?

1662
01:29:03,580 --> 01:29:05,650
Find the genius
among those geniuses.

1663
01:29:06,140 --> 01:29:07,493
To pull us all up.

1664
01:29:08,660 --> 01:29:10,457
We all get
to the peak together

1665
01:29:11,340 --> 01:29:13,058
or we don't
get there at all.

1666
01:29:16,340 --> 01:29:18,490
Yes.
Well, good night, sir.

1667
01:29:47,940 --> 01:29:50,090
I don't know what time
I'm coming home.

1668
01:29:50,260 --> 01:29:51,932
Class ends at nine.

1669
01:29:55,020 --> 01:29:56,533
You got something to say?

1670
01:29:57,620 --> 01:29:59,497
I thought
you might need these.

1671
01:30:02,980 --> 01:30:05,130
You can refill them with
any weight lead you want.

1672
01:30:06,540 --> 01:30:09,373
You see, you just
hit the top like this.

1673
01:30:10,220 --> 01:30:12,211
All right?
The lead comes out.

1674
01:30:12,980 --> 01:30:14,698
You put the new lead in...

1675
01:30:14,900 --> 01:30:17,733
and new pencil.

1676
01:30:21,380 --> 01:30:23,655
You gonna make a fine engineer.

1677
01:30:24,660 --> 01:30:25,660
You think so?

1678
01:30:25,820 --> 01:30:26,889
Yes.

1679
01:30:27,900 --> 01:30:30,812
And nobody dare stand
in the way...

1680
01:30:30,980 --> 01:30:33,414
of Mary Jackson's dreams.

1681
01:30:33,540 --> 01:30:34,973
Myself included.

1682
01:30:40,420 --> 01:30:42,650
Don't make me mad again.

1683
01:30:42,820 --> 01:30:44,048
Yes, ma'am.

1684
01:30:47,740 --> 01:30:49,651
And don't
make me late, either.

1685
01:30:49,820 --> 01:30:51,340
You gonna be late.
I'mma make you late.

1686
01:30:51,540 --> 01:30:52,939
You won't be late.

1687
01:30:59,500 --> 01:31:00,569
All right, gentlemen.

1688
01:31:00,780 --> 01:31:01,780
Tonight, we discuss

1689
01:31:01,860 --> 01:31:05,011
Planck-Einstein
wavelength relationships.

1690
01:31:09,100 --> 01:31:10,215
Yes?

1691
01:31:11,780 --> 01:31:12,849
I'm Mary Jackson.

1692
01:31:13,020 --> 01:31:14,373
I'm enrolled.

1693
01:31:16,700 --> 01:31:18,691
Well, the curriculum
is not designed

1694
01:31:18,780 --> 01:31:19,929
for teaching a woman.

1695
01:31:20,620 --> 01:31:22,611
I imagine it's the same
as teaching a man.

1696
01:31:24,420 --> 01:31:26,376
I don't see a
colored section.

1697
01:31:26,540 --> 01:31:28,292
Should I just
take any seat?

1698
01:31:33,780 --> 01:31:34,895
Thank you.

1699
01:31:39,940 --> 01:31:41,532
Okay. Uh...

1700
01:31:41,980 --> 01:31:43,379
Planck-Einstein.

1701
01:31:45,260 --> 01:31:46,260
The problem...

1702
01:31:46,300 --> 01:31:49,497
is when the capsule moves
from an elliptical orbit

1703
01:31:49,620 --> 01:31:51,133
to a parabolic orbit.

1704
01:31:51,900 --> 01:31:54,289
There's no mathematical
formula for that.

1705
01:31:54,500 --> 01:31:56,934
Because we can calculate
launch and landing...

1706
01:31:57,100 --> 01:31:58,453
but without this conversion

1707
01:31:58,620 --> 01:32:00,975
the capsule stays in orbit,
we can't bring it back home.

1708
01:32:03,340 --> 01:32:05,180
Maybe we've been thinking
about this all wrong.

1709
01:32:05,620 --> 01:32:06,620
How's that?

1710
01:32:11,140 --> 01:32:12,778
Maybe it's not
new math at all.

1711
01:32:14,820 --> 01:32:16,492
It could be old math.

1712
01:32:17,580 --> 01:32:19,775
Something that looks
at the problem numerically,

1713
01:32:19,860 --> 01:32:21,418
and not theoretically.

1714
01:32:21,580 --> 01:32:23,332
Math is always dependable.

1715
01:32:24,420 --> 01:32:25,694
For you it is.

1716
01:32:32,180 --> 01:32:34,535
Euler's method.

1717
01:32:34,700 --> 01:32:35,849
Yes.

1718
01:32:36,020 --> 01:32:38,090
But that's ancient.
But it works.

1719
01:32:38,700 --> 01:32:40,372
It works numerically.

1720
01:33:16,580 --> 01:33:17,729
That's it.

1721
01:33:20,180 --> 01:33:21,408
Let's type it up.

1722
01:33:21,580 --> 01:33:22,580
Okay.

1723
01:33:25,420 --> 01:33:26,489
Huh.

1724
01:33:47,700 --> 01:33:48,894
Dorothy.

1725
01:33:49,780 --> 01:33:51,099
Mrs. Mitchell.

1726
01:33:57,420 --> 01:33:59,251
You're working late today.

1727
01:34:00,220 --> 01:34:02,575
Seems to always
happen that way.

1728
01:34:02,740 --> 01:34:04,731
Yes. Seems to.

1729
01:34:12,580 --> 01:34:13,580
Thank you.

1730
01:34:17,700 --> 01:34:20,453
I hear the IBM's
up to full capacity.

1731
01:34:21,620 --> 01:34:23,258
You certainly
have a knack for it.

1732
01:34:23,940 --> 01:34:26,738
My father taught me a thing
or two about mechanics.

1733
01:34:27,620 --> 01:34:29,815
You know, I have a few
girls in the East Group

1734
01:34:29,980 --> 01:34:32,289
that have an interest
in learning more about it.

1735
01:34:32,460 --> 01:34:33,575
It is the future.

1736
01:34:33,740 --> 01:34:36,049
I may bring them by,
if it's all the same to you.

1737
01:34:36,940 --> 01:34:38,612
That's not my
decision, ma'am.

1738
01:34:39,140 --> 01:34:40,812
That would be
the supervisor's.

1739
01:34:41,780 --> 01:34:43,498
Yes, that's true.

1740
01:34:45,740 --> 01:34:47,332
Good night, Mrs. Mitchell.

1741
01:34:49,300 --> 01:34:50,779
You know, Dorothy.

1742
01:34:52,500 --> 01:34:54,411
Despite what you may think...

1743
01:34:55,620 --> 01:34:57,815
I have nothing against y'all.

1744
01:34:58,020 --> 01:34:59,169
I know.

1745
01:35:00,340 --> 01:35:02,490
I know you
probably believe that.

1746
01:35:15,140 --> 01:35:16,340
Good night,
Katherine.

1747
01:35:17,420 --> 01:35:18,535
Good night.

1748
01:35:20,780 --> 01:35:22,498
Mama!
Hey, babies.

1749
01:35:22,660 --> 01:35:24,491
Mama.
Hi.

1750
01:35:25,180 --> 01:35:26,329
Hey.

1751
01:35:26,820 --> 01:35:29,539
Oh, please don't tell me
I missed someone's birthday.

1752
01:35:29,700 --> 01:35:30,700
No, you didn't.

1753
01:35:30,860 --> 01:35:31,929
No, you didn't, Mama.

1754
01:35:32,140 --> 01:35:33,698
Madame, your seat.

1755
01:35:33,860 --> 01:35:35,612
Well, thank you.

1756
01:35:36,700 --> 01:35:38,531
Wait, is it my birthday?

1757
01:35:38,700 --> 01:35:39,849
No, Mama.

1758
01:35:41,140 --> 01:35:42,539
You all look so pretty.

1759
01:35:45,700 --> 01:35:47,895
Mama, what's going on?

1760
01:35:51,020 --> 01:35:52,373
Good evening, Katherine.

1761
01:35:58,380 --> 01:35:59,660
So you're not gonna
say anything?

1762
01:35:59,820 --> 01:36:01,253
It's not my place.

1763
01:36:03,060 --> 01:36:04,288
You, either?

1764
01:36:07,020 --> 01:36:09,136
Okay, I'm not gonna
do this all night.

1765
01:36:12,060 --> 01:36:13,539
Oh, mother of mercy.

1766
01:36:14,260 --> 01:36:15,260
That's for me.

1767
01:36:18,580 --> 01:36:20,696
Are you sad, Mama?
No.

1768
01:36:20,860 --> 01:36:23,090
It's okay, Mama.
He's a good man.

1769
01:36:23,260 --> 01:36:25,012
I know.

1770
01:36:25,180 --> 01:36:26,476
I just can't help it.

1771
01:36:26,500 --> 01:36:28,252
He hasn't even
asked you yet.

1772
01:36:29,340 --> 01:36:31,217
I know, but he is.

1773
01:36:31,380 --> 01:36:32,380
You are, right?

1774
01:36:32,540 --> 01:36:33,768
If y'all will let me.

1775
01:36:33,940 --> 01:36:36,056
Well, go on.
She's already crying.

1776
01:36:36,220 --> 01:36:37,573
Oh, hush.

1777
01:36:37,740 --> 01:36:38,780
This was my mother's ring.

1778
01:36:39,580 --> 01:36:41,013
It's beautiful.

1779
01:36:41,780 --> 01:36:43,220
She and my father
were married for...

1780
01:36:43,380 --> 01:36:44,608
For 52 years.

1781
01:36:46,540 --> 01:36:48,610
Figure it's about as lucky
a ring as you can get.

1782
01:36:50,460 --> 01:36:52,530
The day I met you,
I called my mother

1783
01:36:52,700 --> 01:36:55,772
and I said, "Mom, I met the
woman I want to marry."

1784
01:36:55,940 --> 01:36:57,134
What'd she say?

1785
01:36:57,300 --> 01:36:58,836
She said, "She must be
something, Jimmy.

1786
01:36:58,860 --> 01:36:59,860
"Really something."

1787
01:37:00,060 --> 01:37:01,129
Then what'd you say?

1788
01:37:01,300 --> 01:37:02,528
I said, "No.

1789
01:37:03,740 --> 01:37:05,617
"She's more than something.

1790
01:37:05,780 --> 01:37:07,293
"She's everything."

1791
01:37:08,140 --> 01:37:09,140
Now...

1792
01:37:09,980 --> 01:37:11,538
I planned on this being
more romantic.

1793
01:37:11,620 --> 01:37:12,956
I'll make that
up to you real soon.

1794
01:37:12,980 --> 01:37:14,049
It's okay.

1795
01:37:15,380 --> 01:37:17,132
But I know marrying you

1796
01:37:18,060 --> 01:37:19,652
includes marrying
your girls as well.

1797
01:37:21,740 --> 01:37:23,139
Amen to that.

1798
01:37:23,820 --> 01:37:24,820
I do.

1799
01:37:24,980 --> 01:37:26,811
I didn't ask you yet.

1800
01:37:26,980 --> 01:37:28,095
Hurry up.

1801
01:37:30,780 --> 01:37:32,452
Oh, my goodness.

1802
01:37:33,300 --> 01:37:34,300
Oh!

1803
01:37:35,660 --> 01:37:39,175
My babies. Look, girls,
isn't it beautiful?

1804
01:37:40,140 --> 01:37:41,255
Look, Mama.

1805
01:37:43,020 --> 01:37:45,060
The
Mercury-Atlas space vehicle...

1806
01:37:45,180 --> 01:37:46,220
which will put John Glenn,

1807
01:37:46,260 --> 01:37:47,860
the first American,
into Earth's orbit...

1808
01:37:47,940 --> 01:37:51,091
has already undergone
five unmanned flight tests.

1809
01:37:51,260 --> 01:37:52,260
NASA has confirmed

1810
01:37:52,340 --> 01:37:55,093
that the IBM 790
data processing system...

1811
01:37:55,260 --> 01:37:57,410
has been utilized to confirm
all of the mission 's...

1812
01:37:57,580 --> 01:37:59,855
launch and recovery
system calculations.

1813
01:38:00,020 --> 01:38:01,780
The modifications
and equipment installations

1814
01:38:01,860 --> 01:38:03,134
are progressing on schedule.

1815
01:38:03,300 --> 01:38:05,018
Yes, sir. Right in here.

1816
01:38:06,700 --> 01:38:07,700
You wanted
to see me, sir?

1817
01:38:07,860 --> 01:38:08,860
Have a seat.

1818
01:38:09,980 --> 01:38:11,652
Is there something wrong,
Mr. Harrison?

1819
01:38:11,820 --> 01:38:13,378
No, there's nothing wrong.

1820
01:38:15,140 --> 01:38:16,937
In fact, our IBM
is churning out numbers

1821
01:38:17,020 --> 01:38:19,170
in fractions of the time
any human can.

1822
01:38:19,340 --> 01:38:21,012
Present company included.

1823
01:38:21,700 --> 01:38:23,179
That's good then.

1824
01:38:26,060 --> 01:38:27,209
Maybe.

1825
01:38:28,220 --> 01:38:29,700
The thing is,
the Cape's now insisting

1826
01:38:29,820 --> 01:38:32,095
on doing all the backups
down there, on site.

1827
01:38:33,340 --> 01:38:34,340
I see.

1828
01:38:34,380 --> 01:38:36,371
So we won't be
running backups here.

1829
01:38:37,620 --> 01:38:40,373
And truth be told, we can't
keep up with that IBM anyhow.

1830
01:38:43,740 --> 01:38:45,571
Long story short,
we no longer need

1831
01:38:45,660 --> 01:38:47,218
a computer in this department.

1832
01:38:48,820 --> 01:38:50,731
Progress
is a double-edged sword.

1833
01:38:55,980 --> 01:38:58,369
Let's have you report back
to the West Group for now.

1834
01:38:58,540 --> 01:39:00,337
We'll see if we can find
another assignment.

1835
01:39:01,020 --> 01:39:02,373
Thank you, sir.

1836
01:39:06,260 --> 01:39:07,260
Katherine, I'm...

1837
01:39:09,420 --> 01:39:11,012
I'm sorry about this.

1838
01:39:12,100 --> 01:39:14,250
It's out of my hands,
if you can believe that.

1839
01:39:15,580 --> 01:39:16,854
I understand.

1840
01:39:40,100 --> 01:39:41,100
Katherine.

1841
01:39:43,260 --> 01:39:44,932
We heard you got engaged.

1842
01:39:45,140 --> 01:39:46,140
Yes.

1843
01:39:46,860 --> 01:39:48,054
That's thoughtful of you.

1844
01:39:55,420 --> 01:39:56,899
They're lovely.

1845
01:39:57,060 --> 01:39:58,891
Mr. Harrison's idea, really.

1846
01:39:59,460 --> 01:40:02,418
Although I suspect his
wife did the picking out.

1847
01:40:02,580 --> 01:40:05,413
Can't imagine he has an eye
for anything but numbers.

1848
01:40:06,820 --> 01:40:08,299
Now you have
a great wedding.

1849
01:40:09,900 --> 01:40:11,811
You did good work
around here, Katherine.

1850
01:40:41,500 --> 01:40:43,156
Hello there.
Good to see you.

1851
01:40:43,180 --> 01:40:44,780
Hi, Reverend. How you doing?
How are you?

1852
01:40:46,020 --> 01:40:49,217
I don't think I felt a thing
the first time I did this.

1853
01:40:49,380 --> 01:40:50,859
I was so nervous.

1854
01:40:53,020 --> 01:40:54,076
You're just
as beautiful

1855
01:40:54,100 --> 01:40:55,249
as you were back then.

1856
01:40:55,460 --> 01:40:57,052
- You think so?
- Mmm.

1857
01:40:57,700 --> 01:40:59,179
Just a little older.

1858
01:40:59,540 --> 01:41:01,610
And a little fuller.

1859
01:41:01,700 --> 01:41:03,019
But you look good.

1860
01:41:07,380 --> 01:41:09,291
Well, here we go. Again.

1861
01:41:09,780 --> 01:41:10,836
Project Mercury...

1862
01:41:10,860 --> 01:41:12,213
named after the winged messenger

1863
01:41:12,300 --> 01:41:14,734
of the gods in
Roman mythology. Today,

1864
01:41:14,820 --> 01:41:17,380
three years, two months,
and three days afterwards...

1865
01:41:17,940 --> 01:41:19,516
we're ready,
after 10 scheduled attempts...

1866
01:41:19,540 --> 01:41:21,019
Attagirl.

1867
01:41:21,180 --> 01:41:23,057
to try again to put
our first man into orbit...

1868
01:41:23,220 --> 01:41:24,858
to put Colonel John Glenn
into orbit.

1869
01:41:24,940 --> 01:41:27,500
Colonel John Glenn will be the
first American to orbit the Earth.

1870
01:41:28,100 --> 01:41:29,100
As you can see, there are

1871
01:41:29,220 --> 01:41:30,420
thousands of people here today

1872
01:41:30,540 --> 01:41:32,371
to witness this historic event.

1873
01:41:33,380 --> 01:41:34,893
Paul, something's off here.

1874
01:41:35,060 --> 01:41:37,210
These landing coordinates
don't match yesterday's.

1875
01:41:39,420 --> 01:41:40,899
The IBM just ran them.

1876
01:41:41,860 --> 01:41:43,851
Well, then the IBM
was wrong yesterday.

1877
01:41:44,540 --> 01:41:45,575
Right?

1878
01:41:46,420 --> 01:41:47,899
Or the damn thing's wrong today.

1879
01:41:51,780 --> 01:41:53,850
Paul, am I right?

1880
01:41:54,700 --> 01:41:56,258
It appears so.

1881
01:41:58,420 --> 01:42:01,059
The IBM's been spot-on
up to this point, John.

1882
01:42:01,140 --> 01:42:03,256
But we'll run it again,
see what it comes up with.

1883
01:42:03,420 --> 01:42:05,138
Look, I'm gonna be
honest with you, Al.

1884
01:42:05,300 --> 01:42:07,256
When I fly,
I fly the machine.

1885
01:42:07,420 --> 01:42:09,775
And right now it seems like
this machine is flying me.

1886
01:42:09,940 --> 01:42:11,100
We're on the same page, John.

1887
01:42:11,140 --> 01:42:12,414
Our guys are on it.

1888
01:42:12,620 --> 01:42:14,372
Let's get the girl
to check the numbers.

1889
01:42:15,140 --> 01:42:16,892
- The girl?
- Yes, sir.

1890
01:42:18,820 --> 01:42:19,889
You mean Katherine?

1891
01:42:20,060 --> 01:42:22,051
Yes, sir. The smart one.

1892
01:42:22,220 --> 01:42:24,609
I mean, she says they're good,
I'm ready to go.

1893
01:42:25,780 --> 01:42:26,940
All right. We'll get into it.

1894
01:42:27,100 --> 01:42:28,328
Roger.

1895
01:42:30,420 --> 01:42:31,420
Sam.

1896
01:42:32,300 --> 01:42:33,779
Go find Katherine Goble.

1897
01:42:33,940 --> 01:42:36,135
She needs to verify
Glenn's "Go/No-go,"

1898
01:42:36,300 --> 01:42:37,500
or we're staying
on the ground.

1899
01:42:37,620 --> 01:42:38,769
Yes, sir.

1900
01:43:02,620 --> 01:43:04,178
I'm looking for Katherine Goble.

1901
01:43:04,380 --> 01:43:05,529
It's Katherine Johnson now.

1902
01:43:05,700 --> 01:43:07,340
They need you to verify
these coordinates.

1903
01:43:08,380 --> 01:43:11,019
and tourists have poured
into Cocoa Beach for weeks.

1904
01:43:11,180 --> 01:43:13,216
Took this whole area
surrounding Cape Canaveral

1905
01:43:13,340 --> 01:43:14,819
and Florida, really.

1906
01:43:14,980 --> 01:43:17,210
And all around the country,
it's as if time...

1907
01:43:17,380 --> 01:43:19,450
All right, give her
some space. Let her work.

1908
01:43:19,620 --> 01:43:23,295
as we await
Colonel John Glenn's launch.

1909
01:43:23,460 --> 01:43:25,371
A truly historic day
for America.

1910
01:43:25,540 --> 01:43:28,338
The country has waited
for several months,

1911
01:43:28,500 --> 01:43:31,537
through many failed unmanned
Atlas rocket tests

1912
01:43:31,740 --> 01:43:34,698
and 10 scheduled
manned attempts...

1913
01:43:34,860 --> 01:43:36,930
which were canceled
for various mechanical

1914
01:43:37,020 --> 01:43:38,851
or system complications.

1915
01:43:38,940 --> 01:43:39,940
Even the weather...

1916
01:43:40,020 --> 01:43:41,676
All the final tests and checks

1917
01:43:41,700 --> 01:43:42,815
are being conducted.

1918
01:43:42,980 --> 01:43:45,699
John Glenn is ready to board
the Friendship 7.

1919
01:43:45,860 --> 01:43:48,090
But today we remain
truly optimistic,

1920
01:43:48,180 --> 01:43:50,569
and it's a "Go" day
in all regards.

1921
01:43:50,740 --> 01:43:52,332
The capsule is ready.

1922
01:43:52,500 --> 01:43:54,218
The rocket itself is A-Okay,

1923
01:43:54,380 --> 01:43:56,177
and the weather here
at Cape Canaveral...

1924
01:43:56,340 --> 01:43:58,535
Anything from Langley?
Not yet.

1925
01:43:58,700 --> 01:43:59,849
We are being told

1926
01:44:00,020 --> 01:44:01,533
that Mission Control at NASA

1927
01:44:01,700 --> 01:44:03,930
is conducting
a final check of the launch

1928
01:44:04,060 --> 01:44:05,209
and recovery coordinates.

1929
01:44:05,380 --> 01:44:07,894
Including the "Go/No-go"
calculations...

1930
01:44:08,060 --> 01:44:09,060
so crucial

1931
01:44:09,100 --> 01:44:10,860
to a safe and successful
launch and recovery.

1932
01:44:11,020 --> 01:44:13,580
After years of
waiting, and months of delay,

1933
01:44:13,780 --> 01:44:16,772
Colonel Glenn is finally ready
for that space flight...

1934
01:44:16,940 --> 01:44:19,060
that we've been waiting for
with so much anticipation.

1935
01:44:19,220 --> 01:44:21,036
These last-minute
checks could indicate

1936
01:44:21,060 --> 01:44:22,937
a hesitancy on NASA's behalf.

1937
01:44:23,100 --> 01:44:24,580
But let us say,
without reservation...

1938
01:44:25,380 --> 01:44:27,257
that the safety
of Colonel John Glenn

1939
01:44:27,420 --> 01:44:28,620
is paramount to the mission...

1940
01:44:29,060 --> 01:44:30,573
and to the nation itself.

1941
01:44:30,740 --> 01:44:31,889
No, sir.
We're still a go.

1942
01:44:32,420 --> 01:44:33,614
Yes, sir.

1943
01:44:37,380 --> 01:44:38,380
That's it.

1944
01:44:43,100 --> 01:44:45,180
What the devil are you doing?
Are you taking a break?

1945
01:44:49,380 --> 01:44:50,574
Yes!

1946
01:44:51,260 --> 01:44:53,091
Say yeah

1947
01:44:53,380 --> 01:44:54,415
Yeah

1948
01:44:55,300 --> 01:44:56,779
Say, yeah!

1949
01:44:57,620 --> 01:44:58,620
Yeah

1950
01:45:00,900 --> 01:45:04,290
Don't you know,
we never ever

1951
01:45:05,100 --> 01:45:07,295
Never know
what makes us major

1952
01:45:08,540 --> 01:45:11,259
Your and my alchemy

1953
01:45:11,340 --> 01:45:12,455
Yes, we can

1954
01:45:12,580 --> 01:45:15,299
One and one equals three

1955
01:45:15,460 --> 01:45:16,609
Yes, we can

1956
01:45:16,740 --> 01:45:18,890
I feel it like lightning
in the forest

1957
01:45:19,460 --> 01:45:20,460
Yes, we can

1958
01:45:20,580 --> 01:45:23,299
Pick a number, pick a note
Harmonize the chords

1959
01:45:23,460 --> 01:45:25,530
You're my woman
don't need another

1960
01:45:25,620 --> 01:45:27,300
Get behind the other
We can lift each other

1961
01:45:27,340 --> 01:45:29,649
It's all very well
that we may never...

1962
01:45:29,820 --> 01:45:30,820
Whoo!

1963
01:45:32,580 --> 01:45:33,979
Do you have the time?

1964
01:45:35,340 --> 01:45:36,375
Yes, we can

1965
01:45:36,460 --> 01:45:38,690
Like a solar system
they're surrounded by you

1966
01:45:39,460 --> 01:45:40,460
Yes, we can

1967
01:45:40,860 --> 01:45:43,135
Pick a number, pick a note
Harmonize the chords

1968
01:45:43,300 --> 01:45:45,291
You're my woman
don't need another

1969
01:45:45,460 --> 01:45:47,291
Get behind the other
we can lift each other

1970
01:45:47,460 --> 01:45:49,496
It's all very well
that we may never...

1971
01:45:49,780 --> 01:45:50,780
Whoo!

1972
01:45:51,300 --> 01:45:53,052
You're my woman
Don't need another

1973
01:45:53,140 --> 01:45:55,495
Get behind the other
We can lift each other

1974
01:45:57,100 --> 01:45:58,135
Whoo!

1975
01:46:05,540 --> 01:46:06,540
Sir.

1976
01:46:11,140 --> 01:46:12,175
Pad 14.

1977
01:46:24,220 --> 01:46:25,220
Katherine.

1978
01:46:30,500 --> 01:46:31,500
Come on.

1979
01:46:35,140 --> 01:46:36,971
Sir, we've got
Pad 14 on the box.

1980
01:46:37,540 --> 01:46:38,740
All right.
Let me in there.

1981
01:46:42,180 --> 01:46:44,694
This is Langley, we have
the coordinates confirmed.

1982
01:46:44,860 --> 01:46:46,380
Stand by, Langley.

1983
01:46:48,820 --> 01:46:49,820
We can confirm...

1984
01:46:50,020 --> 01:46:52,853
the "Go/No-go" point
for re-entry is...

1985
01:46:53,020 --> 01:46:58,378
16.11984 degrees latitude...

1986
01:46:58,540 --> 01:47:04,092
- 165.2356 degrees longitude.

1987
01:47:05,340 --> 01:47:07,058
The launch window is a go.

1988
01:47:07,220 --> 01:47:09,211
The landing coordinates match.

1989
01:47:09,420 --> 01:47:11,012
That is very good news, Al.

1990
01:47:11,780 --> 01:47:14,340
It's a little hard to trust something
you can't look in the eyes.

1991
01:47:14,420 --> 01:47:15,899
That's right, Colonel.

1992
01:47:16,060 --> 01:47:17,778
Katherine did manage
to calculate

1993
01:47:17,940 --> 01:47:20,056
a few decimal points further
than that hunk of metal.

1994
01:47:20,900 --> 01:47:22,697
I will take every digit
you got.

1995
01:47:22,780 --> 01:47:23,900
Be sure to thank her for me.

1996
01:47:24,580 --> 01:47:26,252
Gentlemen,
let's launch this rocket.

1997
01:47:26,420 --> 01:47:27,739
Good luck, Friendship 7.

1998
01:47:27,900 --> 01:47:29,379
Godspeed, Langley.

1999
01:47:32,700 --> 01:47:34,099
Here
at Cape Canaveral...

2000
01:47:34,260 --> 01:47:35,818
the countdown has resumed...

2001
01:47:35,980 --> 01:47:37,538
as Colonel John Glenn...

2002
01:47:37,740 --> 01:47:39,298
is now aboard
the Friendship 7...

2003
01:47:39,460 --> 01:47:41,815
high above the
Atlas rocket on Pad 14.

2004
01:47:42,460 --> 01:47:44,576
A height of over 93 feet.

2005
01:47:44,740 --> 01:47:45,820
So far, the countdown is...

2006
01:47:45,900 --> 01:47:48,289
These are pictures
from Cape Canaveral, Florida.

2007
01:47:48,500 --> 01:47:50,570
The gantry is now moving back.

2008
01:47:50,740 --> 01:47:52,458
We are go for launch.

2009
01:47:52,620 --> 01:47:55,214
The Mercury
spacecraft umbilical is out.

2010
01:47:56,140 --> 01:47:58,096
T-minus 10 seconds,
and counting.

2011
01:47:58,300 --> 01:47:59,556
Water systems, go.
Mercury capsule, go.

2012
01:47:59,580 --> 01:48:00,636
Eight, seven...

2013
01:48:00,660 --> 01:48:02,491
Six, five...
Ready engine. Start.

2014
01:48:02,660 --> 01:48:03,756
four...

2015
01:48:03,780 --> 01:48:05,930
three, two...
Good Lord, ride all the way.

2016
01:48:06,140 --> 01:48:08,256
One, zero.

2017
01:48:08,420 --> 01:48:09,614
Ignition.

2018
01:48:10,620 --> 01:48:11,769
Lift off.

2019
01:48:16,020 --> 01:48:18,136
The M-A 6 vehicle
has lifted off.

2020
01:48:21,100 --> 01:48:22,620
It's getting
a little bumpy along here.

2021
01:48:22,700 --> 01:48:24,850
Roger that.
You are in Max Q.

2022
01:48:25,020 --> 01:48:26,499
Roger that, CAPCOM.

2023
01:48:26,700 --> 01:48:28,531
All systems
are reported go.

2024
01:48:28,700 --> 01:48:30,179
20 seconds to SECO.

2025
01:48:30,340 --> 01:48:32,251
The trajectory
is still A-Okay.

2026
01:48:32,460 --> 01:48:33,495
Go for SECO.

2027
01:48:34,500 --> 01:48:37,139
Roger that, CAPCOM.
Go for SECO.

2028
01:48:41,780 --> 01:48:44,214
Zero G and I feel fine.

2029
01:48:44,660 --> 01:48:47,174
John Glenn reports
everything looks good.

2030
01:48:47,980 --> 01:48:50,494
Oh, that view is tremendous!

2031
01:48:52,060 --> 01:48:54,016
Roger that, Friendship 7.

2032
01:48:59,020 --> 01:49:00,817
You are go for orbit.

2033
01:49:00,980 --> 01:49:02,459
Thank you, CAPCOM.

2034
01:49:07,660 --> 01:49:09,810
All right.
Ten and a half hours to go.

2035
01:49:09,980 --> 01:49:11,413
If we make seven
round trips.

2036
01:49:12,860 --> 01:49:14,179
I could use a coffee.

2037
01:49:15,980 --> 01:49:18,016
Well, as we
approach the end of the day

2038
01:49:18,140 --> 01:49:19,698
here on
the Eastern Seaboard...

2039
01:49:19,860 --> 01:49:22,579
Colonel Glenn is just
beginning his third orbit...

2040
01:49:22,740 --> 01:49:25,254
three-quarters of the way
across the African continent.

2041
01:49:25,420 --> 01:49:27,012
We see he's currently
over Zanzibar...

2042
01:49:27,220 --> 01:49:29,688
which is the next
tracking station coming up.

2043
01:49:29,860 --> 01:49:32,010
Thankfully,
the F riendship 7 capsule is...

2044
01:49:40,860 --> 01:49:42,373
New assignment
came down the pike.

2045
01:49:45,900 --> 01:49:48,095
Always changing
around here.

2046
01:49:48,260 --> 01:49:50,171
It's hard to keep up.

2047
01:49:52,860 --> 01:49:54,236
Seems like they're going
to need a permanent team

2048
01:49:54,260 --> 01:49:56,091
to feed that IBM.

2049
01:49:56,260 --> 01:49:57,693
How big of a team?

2050
01:49:57,860 --> 01:49:59,771
Thirty, to start.

2051
01:50:02,540 --> 01:50:04,770
Thank you for the information,
Mrs. Mitchell.

2052
01:50:06,420 --> 01:50:09,378
You're quite welcome,
Mrs. Vaughan.

2053
01:50:23,700 --> 01:50:24,735
Hmm.

2054
01:50:54,340 --> 01:50:55,773
We have a warning light.

2055
01:50:56,460 --> 01:50:58,416
CAPCOM 7,
I have a warning light.

2056
01:50:58,580 --> 01:50:59,729
Stand by, Seven.

2057
01:51:00,460 --> 01:51:02,291
Sir, we have a warning light.

2058
01:51:05,980 --> 01:51:07,333
What are we
looking at, Paul?

2059
01:51:07,500 --> 01:51:08,535
Uh...

2060
01:51:08,620 --> 01:51:10,656
The heat shield
may have come loose.

2061
01:51:10,820 --> 01:51:12,890
Seven, will you confirm
the landing bag

2062
01:51:12,980 --> 01:51:13,980
is in the off position?

2063
01:51:15,020 --> 01:51:16,499
Affirmative, CAPCOM.

2064
01:51:16,660 --> 01:51:17,979
Al, we need
to get him down now.

2065
01:51:18,140 --> 01:51:19,858
He could burn up
on re-entry.

2066
01:51:28,820 --> 01:51:30,651
Come on, babies.

2067
01:51:30,820 --> 01:51:31,935
There is a man in space.

2068
01:51:32,140 --> 01:51:33,636
And we don't want to miss it,
so we gotta hurry.

2069
01:51:33,660 --> 01:51:35,332
Something's wrong
with Glenn!

2070
01:51:35,500 --> 01:51:36,860
What's going on?
Come on, let's go.

2071
01:51:36,940 --> 01:51:39,135
Come on. Hurry up, now.
Y'all follow me.

2072
01:51:40,460 --> 01:51:42,690
We just learned
that the Friendship 7...

2073
01:51:42,900 --> 01:51:45,858
is in danger of losing
its heat shield.

2074
01:51:46,020 --> 01:51:48,056
Have you heard
any banging noises...

2075
01:51:48,220 --> 01:51:49,858
or anything of this type
at higher rates?

2076
01:51:50,020 --> 01:51:51,373
That is a negative, CAPCOM.

2077
01:51:51,540 --> 01:51:53,337
This poses a grave danger
to the mission.

2078
01:51:53,500 --> 01:51:57,288
Tell them not to jettison
the retro-package.

2079
01:51:57,820 --> 01:51:58,876
NASA is confirming there is

2080
01:51:58,900 --> 01:52:00,049
some sort of malfunction

2081
01:52:00,180 --> 01:52:01,316
with the capsule's
heat shield...

2082
01:52:01,340 --> 01:52:03,649
and it may not stay in place.

2083
01:52:03,860 --> 01:52:05,816
If the heat shield's loose...

2084
01:52:05,980 --> 01:52:09,336
the retro-package straps
might hold it in place.

2085
01:52:09,500 --> 01:52:10,535
Will that work?

2086
01:52:10,700 --> 01:52:12,372
It will work.

2087
01:52:12,540 --> 01:52:15,100
It will hold it until he
reaches the "Go/No-go" point.

2088
01:52:15,260 --> 01:52:16,260
It will work.

2089
01:52:16,380 --> 01:52:20,419
Al, he has
to override the.05G.

2090
01:52:20,580 --> 01:52:21,580
Do it.

2091
01:52:21,740 --> 01:52:23,093
Friendship 7...

2092
01:52:23,260 --> 01:52:26,093
we're recommending
that the retro-package not...

2093
01:52:26,260 --> 01:52:28,330
I repeat, not be jettisoned.

2094
01:52:28,540 --> 01:52:32,374
This means that you will have
to override the. 05G switch.

2095
01:52:32,540 --> 01:52:33,540
Roger.

2096
01:52:33,740 --> 01:52:36,049
Is there a reason
for this? Over.

2097
01:52:36,220 --> 01:52:37,220
Stand by, Seven.

2098
01:52:42,580 --> 01:52:43,729
Not at this time, Seven.

2099
01:52:45,100 --> 01:52:46,533
Roger that, Command.

2100
01:52:46,620 --> 01:52:49,214
I will make
a manual.05G entry...

2101
01:52:49,420 --> 01:52:51,729
and bring the scope in. Over.

2102
01:52:55,380 --> 01:52:56,574
He knows.

2103
01:53:04,260 --> 01:53:05,900
Without a heat shield...

2104
01:53:05,980 --> 01:53:07,820
there is no way that
Colonel Glenn can get back

2105
01:53:07,900 --> 01:53:09,076
through the Earth's atmosphere.

2106
01:53:09,100 --> 01:53:10,772
The heat is simply
too overpowering.

2107
01:53:11,460 --> 01:53:13,610
A malfunction in the automatic
control system...

2108
01:53:13,820 --> 01:53:17,051
is causing the spacecraft
to yaw in a skid-like fashion.

2109
01:53:17,220 --> 01:53:18,892
Thus putting the Friendship 7's

2110
01:53:18,980 --> 01:53:21,255
re-entry point in jeopardy.

2111
01:53:21,420 --> 01:53:24,776
Even now, Colonel Glenn is streaking
toward the United States.

2112
01:53:24,940 --> 01:53:27,408
And he must begin
the retro-sequence

2113
01:53:27,500 --> 01:53:29,331
300 miles west of California...

2114
01:53:29,500 --> 01:53:31,138
if he's to reenter
the atmosphere

2115
01:53:31,300 --> 01:53:32,449
at the designated point...

2116
01:53:32,620 --> 01:53:34,497
and land in the recovery area

2117
01:53:34,620 --> 01:53:37,453
700 miles south
and east of Florida.

2118
01:53:37,620 --> 01:53:40,259
Stay tuned to this station
for further details.

2119
01:53:40,420 --> 01:53:42,570
You're going to be
using fly-by-wire

2120
01:53:42,660 --> 01:53:43,660
for re-entry.

2121
01:53:43,820 --> 01:53:46,493
You'll need to maintain
a zero angle, over.

2122
01:53:46,660 --> 01:53:48,776
Roger. I'm on fly-by-wire.

2123
01:53:48,980 --> 01:53:50,971
Back it up with manual. Over.

2124
01:53:51,140 --> 01:53:52,289
Keep talking to him.

2125
01:53:52,460 --> 01:53:53,460
Roger.

2126
01:53:53,620 --> 01:53:55,975
The weather,
the recovery area...

2127
01:53:56,140 --> 01:53:58,449
three foot waves,
10 miles visibility.

2128
01:53:58,620 --> 01:54:00,975
CAPCOM, you're going out.

2129
01:54:01,140 --> 01:54:02,971
He's crossing the
communication blackout zone.

2130
01:54:06,100 --> 01:54:07,499
There's a real fireball outside.

2131
01:54:07,620 --> 01:54:08,940
It's getting
a little hot in here.

2132
01:54:22,300 --> 01:54:23,619
CAPCOM, do you copy?

2133
01:54:52,700 --> 01:54:55,168
Friendship 7,
do you copy? Over.

2134
01:54:59,380 --> 01:55:00,380
Again.

2135
01:55:00,540 --> 01:55:02,531
Friendship 7,
do you copy? Over.

2136
01:55:17,100 --> 01:55:19,250
Friendship 7,
do you copy? Over.

2137
01:55:32,580 --> 01:55:34,810
Loud and clear, CAPCOM.

2138
01:55:34,900 --> 01:55:37,175
Roger that.
How are you doing?

2139
01:55:38,740 --> 01:55:41,459
My condition is good.
That was a real fireball. Boy!

2140
01:55:41,620 --> 01:55:42,620
Roger that.

2141
01:55:42,740 --> 01:55:44,093
Let's get you
all the way home.

2142
01:55:44,420 --> 01:55:45,420
Roger that.

2143
01:55:45,460 --> 01:55:47,690
Here's hoping these landing
coordinates still hold.

2144
01:55:47,860 --> 01:55:52,251
Approaching 16.11984.

2145
01:55:52,340 --> 01:55:53,340
Roger.

2146
01:55:53,420 --> 01:55:57,413
Approaching
minus 165.2356...

2147
01:55:57,580 --> 01:56:00,538
in three, two, one.

2148
01:56:00,740 --> 01:56:02,219
Engaging chutes.

2149
01:56:03,940 --> 01:56:05,259
Beautiful chute!

2150
01:56:06,100 --> 01:56:07,374
How are we looking, CAPCOM?

2151
01:56:07,580 --> 01:56:09,411
Your "'Go/No-go" is good.

2152
01:56:09,620 --> 01:56:11,736
Landing coordinates
are spot on, 7.

2153
01:56:12,500 --> 01:56:13,500
Roger that, CAPCOM.

2154
01:56:15,340 --> 01:56:18,093
I've always wanted to swim
in the Bahamas. Over.

2155
01:56:21,820 --> 01:56:25,130
John Glenn has splashed down
and he is being recovered.

2156
01:56:25,300 --> 01:56:26,335
Thank you!

2157
01:56:28,140 --> 01:56:30,734
John Glenn has
splashed down safely...

2158
01:56:30,900 --> 01:56:33,334
and is being recovered
by the USS Noa.

2159
01:56:36,180 --> 01:56:38,136
Good job. Great job, guys.

2160
01:56:38,300 --> 01:56:39,300
Katherine.

2161
01:56:44,420 --> 01:56:45,420
Nice work.

2162
01:56:46,660 --> 01:56:48,173
You too, Mr. Harrison.

2163
01:56:49,540 --> 01:56:50,655
So, um...

2164
01:56:52,180 --> 01:56:53,852
you think
we can get to the moon?

2165
01:56:55,980 --> 01:56:58,448
We're already there, sir.

2166
01:57:01,980 --> 01:57:02,980
Yeah.

2167
01:57:11,660 --> 01:57:13,139
Thank you so much.
Thank you.

2168
01:57:41,020 --> 01:57:43,898
Girls, this is
Mrs. Vaughan...

2169
01:57:44,060 --> 01:57:45,413
your supervisor.

2170
01:57:45,580 --> 01:57:47,013
She'll show you
how things work.

2171
01:57:47,860 --> 01:57:48,895
Come on in.

2172
01:57:51,340 --> 01:57:55,253
The IBM 7090 data
processing system...

2173
01:57:55,380 --> 01:58:00,215
is capable of solving 24,000
multiplications per second.

2174
01:59:47,500 --> 01:59:49,616
They'll call it a mystery

2175
01:59:50,180 --> 01:59:52,648
But we're gonna call it
Victory

2176
01:59:52,780 --> 01:59:54,293
We'll be writing history

2177
01:59:54,660 --> 01:59:55,979
It's gonna be

2178
01:59:56,340 --> 01:59:57,659
Victory

2179
01:59:57,780 --> 01:59:59,691
They'll be signs
on top of signs

2180
01:59:59,780 --> 02:00:01,054
Just so you know the

2181
02:00:01,140 --> 02:00:02,573
History

2182
02:00:02,660 --> 02:00:04,537
It's saying victory

2183
02:00:05,860 --> 02:00:07,657
Is with me

2184
02:00:08,340 --> 02:00:10,695
Oh, let them laugh about it

2185
02:00:10,860 --> 02:00:13,215
Don't worry
what the doubter's saying

2186
02:00:13,340 --> 02:00:15,376
Yes, it's an uphill battle

2187
02:00:15,500 --> 02:00:17,809
But guess who else
is playin '

2188
02:00:18,220 --> 02:00:20,688
The next time
y'all in action

2189
02:00:20,860 --> 02:00:22,851
And the ghost is in the room

2190
02:00:23,420 --> 02:00:25,809
Watch you work
through the masses

2191
02:00:25,900 --> 02:00:27,697
You know
that we've been used

2192
02:00:27,900 --> 02:00:30,016
Don't let it be

2193
02:00:30,340 --> 02:00:32,012
Don't let it be

2194
02:00:32,700 --> 02:00:37,057
No matter how deep

2195
02:00:37,700 --> 02:00:42,694
I swear just believe

2196
02:00:42,820 --> 02:00:44,731
You'll find victory

2197
02:00:44,940 --> 02:00:47,374
Find your victory

2198
02:00:47,700 --> 02:00:49,930
They'll call it a mystery

2199
02:00:50,540 --> 02:00:51,893
But we're gonna call it

2200
02:00:52,020 --> 02:00:53,020
Victory

2201
02:00:53,100 --> 02:00:55,011
We'll be writing history

2202
02:00:55,100 --> 02:00:56,738
It's gonna be

2203
02:00:56,900 --> 02:00:58,128
Victory

2204
02:00:58,220 --> 02:01:00,176
They'll be
signs on top of signs

2205
02:01:00,260 --> 02:01:01,932
Just so you know the

2206
02:01:02,060 --> 02:01:03,209
History

2207
02:01:03,340 --> 02:01:05,058
It's saying victory

2208
02:01:07,060 --> 02:01:08,778
Is with me

2209
02:01:09,420 --> 02:01:12,014
The Bible says
you should pray for nothing

2210
02:01:12,100 --> 02:01:13,977
'Cause every week
it's gonna be something

2211
02:01:14,060 --> 02:01:17,018
You know the devil
can't wait to jump in

2212
02:01:17,140 --> 02:01:19,096
And complicate
the things you trust in

2213
02:01:19,220 --> 02:01:21,529
But I know my foundation

2214
02:01:21,620 --> 02:01:24,214
Is solid
and can take some hating

2215
02:01:24,940 --> 02:01:27,090
Prayer's gon' be
on this space station

2216
02:01:27,260 --> 02:01:29,296
On the way
to the master's apron

2217
02:01:29,380 --> 02:01:32,053
They'll call it a mystery

2218
02:01:32,140 --> 02:01:33,493
Victory

2219
02:01:33,580 --> 02:01:35,730
We'll be writing history

2220
02:01:35,820 --> 02:01:36,855
It's gon' be

2221
02:01:36,940 --> 02:01:38,578
Victory

2222
02:01:38,660 --> 02:01:41,094
It's saying victory

2223
02:01:42,380 --> 02:01:43,779
Is with me

2224
02:01:45,780 --> 02:01:47,099
Hey!

2225
02:01:47,460 --> 02:01:49,257
Oh

2226
02:01:58,900 --> 02:02:01,209
When I first got here

2227
02:02:01,300 --> 02:02:03,291
I defined my way

2228
02:02:03,460 --> 02:02:05,928
But the end of the days
were dark

2229
02:02:06,100 --> 02:02:08,614
When I was not clear

2230
02:02:08,940 --> 02:02:10,293
You showed me my mistakes

2231
02:02:10,660 --> 02:02:13,458
But told me keep the pace
Don't get lost

2232
02:02:13,620 --> 02:02:18,171
So should I not fear, yeah

2233
02:02:19,100 --> 02:02:21,091
That's how it feels
when you love me

2234
02:02:21,180 --> 02:02:23,694
And you're my sightseer

2235
02:02:23,820 --> 02:02:25,811
'Cause before I'm in a rut

2236
02:02:25,940 --> 02:02:28,898
You multiply by 10 times
what they took from me

2237
02:02:29,780 --> 02:02:33,489
You send out a branch
from the longest tree

2238
02:02:34,860 --> 02:02:36,657
When I'm in quicksand

2239
02:02:37,500 --> 02:02:41,334
But in my mind
it's really your arm to me

2240
02:02:41,540 --> 02:02:45,533
Can't believe it, what a
lift and hard to believe

2241
02:02:45,660 --> 02:02:48,049
Surrender
But there's a difference

2242
02:02:48,180 --> 02:02:50,375
Surrender, surrender

2243
02:02:50,500 --> 02:02:53,173
'Cause I understand
Explain to me

2244
02:02:53,340 --> 02:02:55,570
There's no coincidence

2245
02:02:55,660 --> 02:02:57,696
Just confirmation

2246
02:02:58,020 --> 02:02:59,339
Let me see them hands

2247
02:03:00,180 --> 02:03:01,932
I was down on myself

2248
02:03:02,020 --> 02:03:03,612
And I called you

2249
02:03:03,700 --> 02:03:08,694
And your answer is
"What can I do?"

2250
02:03:10,860 --> 02:03:13,010
So much you do for me

2251
02:03:15,140 --> 02:03:18,689
In the sound of my breath
seen all the years

2252
02:03:18,860 --> 02:03:20,816
Of surrender

2253
02:03:21,220 --> 02:03:24,371
Just know I'm here

2254
02:03:26,060 --> 02:03:28,699
Reporting for duty

2255
02:03:29,340 --> 02:03:32,332
When it feel this good
Don't ever let go, go

2256
02:03:32,420 --> 02:03:35,571
Don't ever let go, oh

2257
02:03:36,900 --> 02:03:39,573
When it feel this good
Don't ever let go, go

2258
02:03:39,740 --> 02:03:41,253
Don't ever let go, oh

2259
02:03:41,540 --> 02:03:43,212
Don't ever let go, oh

2260
02:03:44,900 --> 02:03:46,049
Hard to believe

2261
02:03:46,340 --> 02:03:48,217
Surrender
but there's a difference

2262
02:03:48,340 --> 02:03:50,251
Surrender, surrender

2263
02:03:51,100 --> 02:03:53,614
'Cause I understand
Explain to me

2264
02:03:54,220 --> 02:03:56,131
There's no coincidence

2265
02:03:56,220 --> 02:03:57,938
Just confirmation

2266
02:03:58,740 --> 02:04:00,332
Let me see them hands

2267
02:04:00,420 --> 02:04:01,648
Please, just wave

2268
02:04:01,740 --> 02:04:03,173
Wave, wave

2269
02:04:03,260 --> 02:04:06,058
Wave, wave Wave

2270
02:04:06,300 --> 02:04:07,369
In this place

2271
02:04:08,100 --> 02:04:09,613
Just wave
Wave

2272
02:04:09,740 --> 02:04:10,934
Wave your hands

2273
02:04:11,700 --> 02:04:13,292
Wave, wave

2274
02:04:18,780 --> 02:04:22,375
Try to understand the way
I've been behaving

2275
02:04:22,740 --> 02:04:25,937
It's a funny thing
you really gotta see

2276
02:04:26,740 --> 02:04:29,777
Is it just your love
that's got me going crazy?

2277
02:04:30,260 --> 02:04:32,455
Or are my eyes
playing with me

2278
02:04:35,420 --> 02:04:38,457
All day your love just
comes shining down

2279
02:04:39,420 --> 02:04:42,218
Just like the sweetest bees

2280
02:04:43,300 --> 02:04:46,610
I feel you from
my root to my crown

2281
02:04:47,340 --> 02:04:51,299
It's mighty good to me
Like caramel

2282
02:04:51,420 --> 02:04:53,217
He's right beside me

2283
02:04:53,300 --> 02:04:55,291
My mind's his carousel

2284
02:04:55,380 --> 02:04:57,291
It's how he rides me

2285
02:04:57,420 --> 02:04:59,456
So there's no parallels

2286
02:04:59,540 --> 02:05:03,135
Y'all know me very well

2287
02:05:03,460 --> 02:05:05,098
It's yellow lightning

2288
02:05:06,980 --> 02:05:09,813
Try to understand the way
I've been behaving

2289
02:05:10,820 --> 02:05:13,778
It's a funny thing
you really gotta see

2290
02:05:14,780 --> 02:05:17,817
Is it just your love
that's got me going crazy

2291
02:05:17,940 --> 02:05:20,295
Or are my eyes
playing with me

2292
02:05:20,620 --> 02:05:22,656
Just like a mirage

2293
02:05:24,420 --> 02:05:28,174
I love you like
you were gold

2294
02:05:28,620 --> 02:05:30,929
Just like a mirage

2295
02:05:32,500 --> 02:05:35,810
I love you
like you were gold

2296
02:05:36,620 --> 02:05:38,656
Just like a mirage

2297
02:05:40,340 --> 02:05:42,774
I love you
like you were gold

2298
02:05:42,940 --> 02:05:44,612
Gold, gold

2299
02:05:45,180 --> 02:05:47,535
And I'm sorry, baby

2300
02:05:47,700 --> 02:05:49,691
For the what ifs, maybes

2301
02:05:49,820 --> 02:05:51,617
I've taken too far

2302
02:05:51,700 --> 02:05:53,770
I know I must be
looking crazy

2303
02:05:53,860 --> 02:05:55,771
I'm sorry, baby

2304
02:05:55,980 --> 02:05:57,857
For the what ifs, maybes

2305
02:05:57,980 --> 02:05:59,538
I take it too far

2306
02:05:59,740 --> 02:06:02,573
You know I must be
looking crazy

2307
02:06:02,860 --> 02:06:05,818
Try to understand the way
I've been behaving

2308
02:06:06,820 --> 02:06:09,618
It's a funny thing
you really gotta see

2309
02:06:10,980 --> 02:06:13,813
Is it just your love that's
got me going crazy

2310
02:06:14,180 --> 02:06:16,330
Or are my eyes
playing with me

2311
02:06:18,780 --> 02:06:21,852
I spent many nights
on my knees praying

2312
02:06:22,860 --> 02:06:25,818
From the side effects
of all this heat

2313
02:06:26,860 --> 02:06:29,897
But I'm telling y'all
it does feel amazing

2314
02:06:30,180 --> 02:06:32,853
Or are my eyes
playing with me
