...but we'll correct that.
Don't be too sure of that.
We can certainly tune them in
if they're up there.
What I'm trying to tell you is
that they're no longer up there.
That wasn't a meteorite
that fell on Panama.
Number 7. I made sure of that myself.
-What?
-And Intelligence has reports now...
...that 1 and 3 fell over Africa...
...Number 5 around the North Pole,
and 9 and 10 along the Andes.
The rest can be presumed
to have been lost someplace at sea.
What happens to them?
Apparently they blow up
in outer space.
Why? There's nothing explosive
in them.
You can take it from me...
...when a rocket's blasted off, it should
circle the Earth for a long time.
-That is, unless--
-Russ? Dad?
Unless what?
Unless something shoots them down
as fast as we set them up there.
Why, no gun in the world
can shoot that high.
No. No, of course not.
Bring spoons for your coffee.
My special barbecue.
That's to make up for not telling you
about our getting married.
It was kind of sudden for us too.
Sudden? I've only been
after him for a year.
I don't need to tell you, both of you,
how pleased I am.
Well, I'm glad of that. I wouldn't
like it very much if you weren't.
Thank you.
Russ, what were you
driving at back there...
...about something shooting down
one of the satellites?
General, we saw a strange thing
this afternoon.
We saw what appeared to be
a flying saucer.
-A flying saucer?
-It nearly ran into us.
You're sure of it?
Both Carol and I are subject to
the same atmospheric disturbances...
...that may have affected
other observers...
...but there is a qualitative difference
when you're a scientist.
We do have one piece
of supporting evidence:
An accidental recording
of the sounds it made.
The tape is in the lab at the project.
I'd like you to hear it tomorrow.
-You both saw this?
-Yes.
Excuse me.
From Captain Holoway, sir.
Will you sign here, please?
-Who's Holoway?
-He's on monitor duty this evening.
They've just lost contact
with Number 11.
Russ, I'm sorry.
Is it still in range of our receivers?
If it hasn't been knocked down.
Look.
-What are those lights?
-They're what the pilots call foo lights.
St. Elmo's Fire, in ancient times.
The superstitious regard them
The best science has made of them
is that they're electric particles...
...agitated by moving air.
Same principle as the aurora borealis.
There have been so many around
the project, we take them for granted.
Bird 11 ought to be visible in the sky
on its second lap around the world.
Look, there it is.
-Was that it?
-Yes.
Surely you're not going to send up
