| [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... |
