| [00:46.95] | Lit up with anticipation |
| [00:51.02] | We arrive at the launching site |
| [00:53.98] | The sky is still dark, nearing dawn |
| [00:57.77] | On the Florida coastline |
| [01:01.27] | Circling choppers slash the night |
| [01:05.00] | With roving searchlight beams |
| [01:08.14] | This magic day when super-science |
| [01:11.83] | Mingles with the bright stuff of dreams |
| [01:30.62] | Floodlit in the hazy distance |
| [01:33.63] | The star of this unearthly show |
| [01:37.19] | Venting vapours, like the breath |
| [01:40.85] | Of a sleeping white dragon |
| [01:44.43] | Crackling speakers, voices tense |
| [01:48.14] | Resume the final count |
| [01:51.52] | All systems check, T minus nine |
| [01:55.46] | As the sun and the drama start to mount |
| [02:14.00] | The air is charged |
| [02:17.51] | A humid, motionless mass |
| [02:21.17] | The crowds and the cameras |
| [02:24.58] | The cars full of spectators pass |
| [02:28.22] | Excitement so thick you could cut it with a knife |
| [02:35.49] | Technology...high, on the leading edge of life |
| [03:18.42] | The earth beneath us starts to tremble |
| [03:22.08] | With the spreading of a low black cloud |
| [03:25.59] | A thunderous roar shakes the air |
| [03:28.95] | Like the whole world exploding |
| [03:32.84] | Scorching blast of golden fire |
| [03:36.30] | As it slowly leaves the ground |
| [03:40.00] | Tears away with a mighty force |
| [03:43.53] | The air is shattered by the awesome sound |
| [04:01.85] | Excitement so thick you could cut it with a knife |
| [04:09.02] | Technology...high, on the leading edge of life |
| [04:16.39] | Like a pillar of cloud |
| [04:19.76] | The smoke lingers high in the air |
| [04:23.59] | In fascination |
| [04:27.09] | With the eyes of the world |
| [04:28.77] | We stare... |
